Abstract

Household waste largely consists of organic materials such as vegetable scraps, fruit peels, and leaves, which have the potential to be transformed into eco-friendly products like eco enzyme. Eco enzyme is a fermentation product of organic waste combined with palm sugar and water, which can be used as a cleaning solution, fertilizer, natural pesticide, and water quality enhancer. This study aims to examine the characteristics of eco enzyme made from pineapple, orange, and cucumber peels in both fresh and dried forms, using a mixing ratio of 3:1:10 for organic waste, palm sugar, and water, respectively. The parameters analyzed included pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), fermentation yield volume, and tannin content as a phytochemical compound. The results showed that eco enzyme from fresh waste had a pH of 3.65, TDS of 127 ppm, and a volume of 2200 ml, whereas the product from dried waste had a pH of 3.53, TDS of 235 ppm, and a volume of 1000 ml. Tannin testing using FeCl₃ reagent indicated that neither sample contained tannins. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that eco enzyme produced from both fresh and dried organic waste exhibits favorable chemical properties and is suitable for use as an environmentally friendly household cleaning solution.

Abstract

Medicinal plants are vital sources of natural bioactive compounds with potential applications in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and functional foods. One such plant with high potential is Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.), known to contain various secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, and terpenoids. This study aims to compare the phytochemical profiles of Roselle calyces in two different physical forms—whole dried flowers and powdered form—and to assess the effect of physical treatment on the presence of secondary metabolites. The samples were dried, ground, and sieved to obtain a fine powder, followed by qualitative phytochemical screening using specific reagents: Culvenor-Fitzgerald for alkaloids, Shinoda and cyanidin tests for flavonoids, foam test for saponins, 1% FeCl₃ for tannins, and Liebermann–Burchard test for terpenoids and steroids. The results showed that both sample forms tested positive for alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and terpenoids, while tannins and steroids were not detected. These consistent findings suggest that proper drying and grinding processes do not significantly degrade the main active compounds in Roselle. The study concludes that the physical form of Roselle calyces (whole or powdered) does not qualitatively affect its phytochemical profile. These results provide a foundation for optimizing the use of Roselle’s secondary metabolites in phytopharmaceuticals or plant-based product applications.
