Quantity Differences of Secondary Metabolites (Saponins, Tannins, and Flavonoids) from Binahong Plant Extract (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis) treated and untreated with Colchicines that play a Role in Wound Healing

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study is to compare whether there are differences in the value content of secondary metabolites (saponins, tannins, and flavonoids) between the group treated with Binahong leaves (administration of colchicines) and the group treated with Binahong leaves without the application of colchicines. Materials and methods:The design of this study is an experimental research laboratory study. This research was done in four different places in which colchicines were applied to improve the quality of Binahong, conducted in the USU Agricultural Faculty's Greenhouse, whereas no application of colchicines was done in the Desa Simpang Pergendangan Kelurahan Tiga Binanga Kabupaten Karo harvesting Binahong plant. The pharmacy faculty of USU was chosen as a place to obtain the extract and the Laboratory of the Research Institute for Spices and Medicinal Plants (Balitro) was where the phytochemical analysis was conducted. Results:The results showed that there were differences in the descriptive values of secondary metabolites in the Binahong leaf extract, such as saponins, tannins, and flavonoids, wherein the group with colchicines was higher than groups without colchicines, but there was no statistical differences between the groups treated with colchicines and those not treated with colchicines (value p > 0.05). ORIGINAL RESEARCH 10.5005/jp-journals-10015-1453Conclusion: Administration of colchicines can improve the content of secondary metabolites in Binahong leaf extract and the plant morphology without affecting the content of the plant extract.Clinical significance: Secondary metabolites in herbal plants, such as saponins, flavonoids, and tannins are able to speed up the healing process. One of the plants that have all three of these active compounds is Binahong (Anredera cordifolia). Binahong leaf extract can stimulate the process of fibroblasts and collagen formation that will accelerate the process of wound healing. Colchicine as a reagent for the mutation is able to affect the number of leaves and morphological characteristics of the Binahong plant.

Evaluation of Dermal Toxicity and Wound Healing Activity of Cnestis ferruginea Vahl ex DC

“…Likewise, saponins have also been reported to contain antibacterial properties [ 56 ]. Saponins from plant studies have been reported to enhance wound healing activity [ 57 , 58 ] and prevent excessive scar formation in experimental mice [ 59 ]. Triterpenoids are also phytochemicals, well known to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activities [ 60 ].…”

The effectivity of binahong (anredera cordifolia (ten.) steenis) leaves extract for growth inhibition of streptococcus mutans in oral cavity

“…Bacterial cells also cannot be formed again because tannins inhibit the DNA. 11 In addition there are terpenoids and alkaloids. The terpenoid compounds action mechanism is by damaging the outer membrane, inner membrane and can also interact with membrane proteins with the help of alkaloids by inhibiting the formation of enzymes (esterase, DNA-, RNA-polymerase), inhibiting cell respiration.…”
