Abstract

Indonesia has around 3,500 species of therapeutic plants, one of which is utilized by the individuals of Selilau Town, Aru Islands Rule, Maluku Area.. This study aims to examine 15 types of medicinal plants that are used traditionally, including plant parts, properties, active compound content, and pharmacological activity based on scientific literature from the last 10 years. This survey points to recognize species of restorative plants commonly utilized in neighborhood conventional medication, look at the plant parts utilized, handling strategies, and maladies treated based on neighborhood experiences and to survey logical writing to decide the dynamic compound substance and pharmacological movement of each distinguished plant. The comes about of the think about appeared that the foremost broadly utilized plant is the leaf portion. Some of them are: Momordica charantia (bitter melon) for cough; Urena lobata (pulutan) to smooth postpartum blood; Morinda citrifolia (mengkudu) for broken bones; Erythrina variegata (dadap) for body recovery; Myrmecodia pendens (ant nest) for swelling and beriberi; and Carica papaya (papaya) for malaria. Other plants such as Manihot esculenta, Tradescantia spathacea, Graptophyllum pictum, Hemigraphis alternata, Mimosa pudica, Jatropha curcas, Psidium guajava, Nypa fruticans, and Stachytarpheta jamaicensis are also used for various health complaints. Active compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and saponins support pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antipyretic, gastroprotective, and immunostimulant. This study emphasizes the importance of documenting traditional knowledge as an effort to preserve and develop local wisdom-based medicines.

Abstract

Extraction is a crucial stage in obtaining bioactive compounds from natural materials that have potential as medicinal, cosmetic, or nutraceutical ingredients. Among the various extraction methods available, maceration remains one of the most widely used techniques due to its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ability to maintain the stability of active compounds. The maceration process involves soaking powdered plant material in a suitable solvent at room temperature for a certain period, accompanied by periodic stirring to facilitate the diffusion of active compounds into the solvent. This method is particularly effective for extracting polar and semi-polar compounds such as flavonoids, phenolics, and essential oils that are sensitive to heat. The review shows that the effectiveness of maceration is influenced by several key factors, including the type and concentration of solvent, particle size of the material, duration of soaking, and stirring frequency. The use of ethanol with higher concentrations generally yields greater extract recovery and higher levels of active compounds. In addition, maceration is considered environmentally friendly because it requires no excessive heating and can employ safe, natural solvents. Therefore, despite the development of advanced extraction technologies, maceration remains a relevant, practical, and efficient method for phytochemical extraction, especially in laboratory research and small-scale herbal industries.
