Uji Aktivitas Antioksidan dan Fenolik Total Fraksi Etil Asetat Daun Sembung (Blumea balsamifera (L.) DC)

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of ethyl acetate fraction of Sembung leaves. Sembung (Blumea balsamifera L.) is a plant that has the potential as an antioxidant because it contains secondary metabolites of alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, saponins, and phenolic compounds. In this study, antioxidant activity was tested by using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) for free radical scavenging activity assay. Evaluation of total phenolic content was tested by using the Folin-Ciocalteau method. The results showed that the ethyl acetate fraction of Sembung leaves possess showed medium antioxidant activity with IC50 valueof 221.821 compare with reference standard ascorbic acid with IC50 value 68.25 ppm. The ethyl acetate fraction of Sembung leaves has a total phenolic content of 161.101 mg GAE/g. This study provided that Blumea balsamifera leaves possess antioxidant.

Total Phenolic Content and Proliferation Activity of Spirulina Extract in Lymphocyte Cell

“…Gallic acid is used as a standard solution, because gallic acid belongs to the class of phenolic compounds derived from hydroxybenzoic acid which are stable, simple and easy to find. Gallic acid is known to have antioxidant activity and has a higher reactivity to the Folin-ciocalteu reagent than other phenolic compounds [24].…”

Aktivitas antibateri sediaan hand and body lotion dari ekstrak etanol daun binahong (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis) terhadap bakteri Staphylococcus aureus

“…Senyawa tersebut yaitu flavonoid, saponin, dan alkaloid (Febrianti, 2021). Menurut Amalia et al (2018) menyatakan bahwa mekanisme antibakteri flavonoid seperti memproduksi senyawa kompleks dengan protein ekstraseluler sehingga membran sel bakteri rusak. Saponin bekerja dengan cara mengganggu permeabilitas membran sel bakteri dan dapat mengakibatkan kerusakan membran sel sehingga berbagai komponen penting pada bakteri seperti protein, asam nukleat dan nukleotida keluar dari dalam sel dan menyebabkan kematian pada bakteri (Larissa et al, 2017).…”
