Abstract

Buah kecombrang (Etlingera elatior (Jack) R.M. Smith) dikenal memiliki kandungan senyawa bioaktif yang berpotensi digunakan sebagai inhibitor enzim tirosinase, yang berperan penting dalam pengembangan agen pencerah kulit dan pengobatan hiperpigmentasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengstandardisasi simplisia dan ekstrak etanol buah kecombrang serta menguji aktivitas inhibitor enzim tirosinase menggunakan metode KLT bioautografi. Hasil standardisasi menunjukkan kadar air simplisia sebesar 4,93 ± 0,05% dan ekstrak sebesar 9,59 ± 0,39%, kadar abu total simplisia sebesar 6,09 ± 0,05% dan ekstrak sebesar 3,98 ± 0,05%, serta kadar abu tidak larut asam simplisia sebesar 5,45 ± 0,23% dan ekstrak sebesar 1,82 ± 0,01%. Kadar sari larut air pada simplisia tercatat 7,24 ± 0,16%, sementara kadar sari larut etanol sebesar 5,12 ± 0,12%. Pengamatan mikroskopis menunjukkan adanya fragmen pengenal seperti rambut penutup, kolenkim, epidermis dengan stomata, dan penebalan tipe tangga. Uji aktivitas inhibitor tirosinase dengan metode KLT bioautografi menunjukkan adanya zona putih pada plat KLT yang mengindikasikan kemampuan ekstrak etanol buah kecombrang dalam menghambat aktivitas enzim tirosinase.

Abstract

Tamarillo (Solanum betaceum Cav.) is a member of the Solanaceae family that contains phenolic and flavonoid compounds. The fruit of the tamarillo is commonly consumed. However, other parts that are rarely used also have many potential benefits, including antioxidant activity. This study aims to evaluate antioxidant activity of used part (flesh) and unused part (leaves and peel) extracts of tamarillo through ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacity (AEAC), phenolic and flavonoids content, correlation the phenolic and flavonoid content on antioxidant activity, correlation the DPPH and CUPRAC methods and the levels of flavonoid compound in selected extract. Three organs (flesh, leaves, peel) were extracted using polarity solvents (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, ethanol). Antioxidant activity was conducted using DPPH and CUPRAC assays, and total phenolic acid and flavonoid acid were also investigated. The result showed that the highest antioxidant activity of tamarillo extracts using DPPH and CUPRAC methods was given by ethanol leaves, 94.917 ± 3.920 and 110.182 ± 7.987 mg AEAC/g sample. The highest TPC in the ethanol leaves extract 10.416 g GAE/100 g, while the highest TFC in the n-hexane leaves extract 8.367 g QE/100 g. Phenolic and flavonoid compounds were identified as significant contributors to the antioxidant activity, with both assessment methods showing a strong linear correlation. In conclusion, Tamarillo leaves had the potential to be a natural antioxidant source, with a rutin content of 0.088%, according to HPLC analysis.

Abstract

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is rich in mitragynine, a bioactive alkaloid with antinociceptive, sedative, and antimicrobial activities, and potential benefits for alleviating alcohol dependence. This study aimed to develop a safe, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and efficient method for enriching mitragynine using macroporous resins. Extraction was performed via maceration with 70% ethanol, and the performance of macroporous resins (PAD610 and PAD900) was evaluated in terms of adsorption and desorption characteristics using UPLC-MS/MS. The results showed that the adsorption and desorption processes followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating that mitragynine adsorption is influenced by coexisting compounds in the extract. Isothermal adsorption analysis demonstrated good agreement with the Freundlich model, with R2 values of 0.9973 for PAD610 and 0.9905 for PAD900, suggesting multilayer adsorption on heterogeneous surfaces. Under optimized conditions, macroporous resin enrichment effectively increased mitragynine content, yielding 753 mg for PAD900 and 303 mg/g for PAD610. Additionally, a flow rate of 3 BV/hour was identified as optimal for large-scale applications. This study demonstrates that macroporous resins provide an efficient and scalable approach for mitragynine enrichment from M. speciosa extract, offering a promising method for the preparation of high-purity bioactive compounds.
