STANDARISASI PARAMETER SPESIFIK EKSTRAK BUAH PINANG YAKI (Areca vestiaria)
Abstract
ABSTRACT
Pinang Yaki (Areca vestiaria) is one of the plants that grows in the North Sulawesi area, precisely on the slopes of Mount Soputan, the slopes of Mount Mahawu, the slopes of Mount Ambang, and the Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park, which is a type of wild palm, which turns out to have multifunctions (Simbala, 2007). The people of North Sulawesi (Mongondow and Minahasa tribes) usually use this plant empirically to cure various diseases such as diabetes and diarrhea (Simbala, 2006). This study aims to determine the results of the standardization of specific parameter tests. The research method used organoleptic test procedures, soluble compound tests, chemical extract tests, and total flavonoid tests. The results showed that the extract produced was viscous, dark brown in color, bitter in taste, and had a characteristic odor. The content of compounds dissolved in water is 5,928%, while the levels of compounds dissolved in ethanol are 11,11%. Contains secondary metabolites in the form of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, quinones, and triterpenoids. Total flavonoid content of 1.8%.
