STANDARDISASI SIMPLISIA DARI BUAH MIANA (Plectranthus Seutellaroides (L) R.Bth ) YANG BERASAL DARI 3 TEMPAT TUMBUH MENADO, KUPANG DAN PAPUA

Abstract

Abstract. Herbal medicine industries are growing rapidly in Indonesia, therefore, medicinal plant as a raw material is needed. Standardization of raw materials and detection of finger print of chemical compounds is the requirements to obtain a good quality of raw material. Standardization of raw material includes characterization, screening of phytochemical, fractionation of the extract followed by the detection of chemical compounds by TLC (Thin Layer Chromatography) and the detection of finger print by Densitometre. In this study, the chemical compounds from the medicinal plant obtained from three different places were determined. The results shown that tannin is the marker and the finger print from each fractions ( e.g. n-hexan, ethyl acetate and ethanol) has a similar chromatogram.
