Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries titled “Megabiodiversity”, which has a high level of biodiversity, including medicinal plants. Medicinal plants utilize various parts of plants, such as roots, leaves, stems, and fruits for prevention, treatment, and pain relief. Nagari Lasi has great potential in the diversity of medicinal plants, but their utilization by the community is still limited due to a lack of knowledge. This study aims to identify the content of bioactive compounds in medicinal plants through macroscopic, microscopic, and phytochemical screening. The methods include organoleptic observation, macroscopic and microscopic analysis, and phytochemical tests. Of the 150 plant samples, the results showed that 78 samples contained alkaloids, 115 samples contained phenolics, 129 samples contained flavonoids, 75 samples contained steroids, 21 samples contained triterpenoids, and 119 samples contained saponins. This study provides basic information regarding the phytochemical content of medicinal plants in Nagari Lasi as a first step in developing traditional medicine.

Abstract

Dermatophytosis is a prevalent skin infection in tropical regions like Indonesia, predominantly caused by the fungus Trichophyton rubrum. While Matoa leaves (Pometia pinnata) are known for their medicinal properties, their specific antifungal potency requires optimization through fractionation. This study aimed to evaluate the antifungal activity of the ethyl acetate fraction of Matoa leaves and determine its effective concentration against T. rubrum. This experimental study employed the disc diffusion method using Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA). The ethyl acetate fraction was tested at concentrations of 10% and 20%, with 2% Ketoconazole as the positive control and DMSO as the negative control. The results demonstrated that the ethyl acetate fraction exhibited strong antifungal activity, yielding inhibition zones of 18.25 mm at 10% concentration and 19.75 mm at 20% concentration. Statistical analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests indicated significant antifungal activity compared to the negative control (p < 0.05), though no significant difference was observed between the 10% and 20% concentrations. These findings suggest that the semi-polar ethyl acetate fraction of Matoa leaves is a potent natural antifungal agent, showing strong efficacy even at lower concentrations.

Abstract

While many empowerment programs focus solely on planting, this study integrates cultivation with the creation of innovative herbal products. The program involved six selected Dasawisma groups (Anggrek, Melati, and Mawar) in Nagari Lasi, Agam Regency. A Community-Based Research approach was conducted over eight months (July–December 2023), utilizing a structured questionnaire to measure knowledge and direct observation for skill assessment. Knowledge regarding TOGA cultivation and processing increased significantly by 82%. The groups successfully transformed harvests into innovative commercial products, including "Seduhan Lasi" (herbal drink), "Keripik Pegagan" (Centella chips), and "TomaLasi" (tomato dates). The program successfully shifted the community's role from passive producers to active micro-entrepreneurs, utilizing marketing strategies (4P) to enhance family economic resilience.
