Abstract

Background: Indonesia is rich in medicinal plants, including Cotylelobium melanoxylon Pierre (raru bark), traditionally used to treat diarrhea, malaria, and diabetes. However, scientific validation of its alkaloid compounds and antibacterial potential is still limited. Objective: This study aimed to (1) fractionate alkaloids from raru bark extract using chloroform liquid-liquid extraction, (2) identify alkaloid functional groups via FT-IR spectroscopy, (3) quantify alkaloid levels in ethanol and methanol extracts using UV spectrophotometry, and (4) evaluate their antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: The research stages included plant material processing, ethanol/methanol extraction, phytochemical screening, alkaloid fractionation with chloroform, FT-IR analysis, UV spectrophotometry for alkaloid quantification, and antibacterial testing via disc diffusion at 40%, 50%, and 60% concentrations. Results: Alkaloid fractions were successfully isolated, containing functional groups N-H, C-N, C=O, aromatic C=C, and sharp C=O. The methanol extract yielded higher alkaloid levels (21.03 ± 0.10%) than ethanol (18.95 ± 0.09%). The 50% alkaloid fraction showed the strongest antibacterial activity, with inhibition zones of 21.1 mm (E. coli) and 23.1 mm (S. aureus). Conclusion: Raru bark alkaloids exhibit significant antibacterial effects, with methanol extract demonstrating superior alkaloid content and efficacy.

Abstract

Background: The use of plants as traditional medicine is supported by their bioactive compounds, particularly secondary metabolites such as flavonoids. Soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) are known to be rich in these compounds; however, quantitative data, especially in specific fractions, remain limited. Determining the total flavonoid content is essential for the standardization of herbal raw materials. Objective: This study aimed to identify the classes of chemical compounds present in the ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction of soursop leaves and to determine the total flavonoid content of both samples. Methods: Soursop leaf simplicia was extracted using 70% ethanol by the maceration method. The resulting ethanol extract was then fractionated with ethyl acetate. Phytochemical screening was conducted to identify compound classes, while the determination of total flavonoid content was quantitatively analyzed using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method with quercetin as the standard. Results: Phytochemical screening revealed that both the ethanol extract and the ethyl acetate fraction tested positive for alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and steroids/triterpenoids. The total flavonoid content obtained in the ethanol extract was 31.524 ± 0.1524 mg QE/g, while the ethyl acetate fraction showed a significantly higher content of 41.425 ± 0.1363 mg QE/g. Conclusion: Fractionation with ethyl acetate effectively concentrated flavonoid compounds from the crude soursop leaf extract, as indicated by the higher total flavonoid content in the ethyl acetate fraction. These findings support the potential of the ethyl acetate fraction of soursop leaves as a source of flavonoids for the development of standardized herbal medicines.

Abstract

Natural ingredients have been widely used in medicine, commonly referred to as "back to nature," meaning "kembali ke alam." Herbal medicine is recognized as one of the most practical and effective treatment modalities available. One medicinal plant is the stem of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa (Aiton) Hassk., which belongs to the Myrtaceae family and has the potential as an antibacterial remedy. To ensure traditional medicine fulfills its responsibility, scientific research, such as toxicity testing, is necessary. The Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) is a preliminary test to assess the toxic effects of plants. This study aims to determine the secondary metabolite compounds, toxicity levels, and antibacterial activity of ethanol extract and n-hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa stem. The study includes characterization, phytochemical screening, and toxicity testing by observing the mortality rate of Artemia salina Leach larvae, expressed as LC50. Antibacterial testing against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was conducted using the disc diffusion method. The results of phytochemical screening of simplicia powder, ethanol extract, and n-hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa stem tested positive for alkaloids and triterpenoids/steroids. Simplicia powder, ethanol extract, and the ethyl acetate fraction also contained secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. The toxicity test results using probit analysis showed that the LC50 value of the extract was 97.6787 µg/mL, the LC50 value of the ethyl acetate fraction was 71.4331 µg/mL, and the LC50 value of the n-hexane fraction was 57.4910 µg/mL. Therefore, it can be concluded that the extract and the n-hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa stem are toxic. The antibacterial test results showed that the extract and the n-hexane and ethyl acetate fractions exhibited inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
