PENGUKURAN RENDEMEN DAN IDENTIFIKASI SENYAWA METABOLIT SEKUNDER PADA EKSTRAK DAUN TERAP (Artocarpus odoratissimus Blanco) DENGAN VARIASI PELARUT

Abstract

Terap plant have abundant health benefits. In the community of leaf terap empirically used as a lowering of high blood pressure by boiling a few leaves and then drinking boiled water. In this study the aim was to find out what percentage of yield obtained in leaf extracts applied with methanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane solvents and any secondary metabolites contained in each extract.

The type of research used in this study is non-experimental with a descriptive method which describes how much yield obtained in leaf extract using maceration method and using methanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane solvents and then any secondary metabolites contained in the extract the leaves are applied with methanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane solvents. The sample used is a plant from Banjang Village.. This study the management of the data used is qualitative.

The results showed that the leaf extract with the methanol produced the largest yield of 13.57%, with secondary metabolite compounds flavonoids, tannins, quinones, saponins, and phenols, then with ethyl acetate solvents produced a yield of 5.52%, with content of secondary metabolites of flavonoids, tannins, phenols and quinones, while the smallest yields were n-hexane solvents, which is 2.30%, with triterpenoid and quinone secondary metabolites.
