PENENTUAN KADAR FENOLIK TOTAL EKSTRAK ETANOL DAUN NILAM (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) DENGAN METODE SPEKTROFOTOMETRI UV-VIS
ABSTRACT: One of the plants
that is well known in the community and is used as a traditional medicine is
patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth.). It contains essential oils, flavonoids,
saponins, tannins, glycosides, terpenoids and steroids. The alcohol content,
such as patchouli alcohol and its derivatives, phenol, and a group of
terpenoids in patchouli oil has antibacterial activity. The aim at this
research to determine the total phenolic condition the ethanol extract from the
patchouli leaves. The extract obtained was analyzed ist content using UV-Vis
spectrophotometer. The measurements were done at the maximum wavelength of
662,85 nm. The result showed that the total phenolic in patchouli leave is
327,84 mgGAE /gram of extract.
