PERBANDINGAN PELARUT ETANOL DAN AIR PADA PEMBUATAN EKSTRAK UMBI BAWANG TIWAI (Eleutherine americana Merr) MENGGUNAKAN METODE MASERASI
Abstract: Bawang tiwai
(Eleutherine americana Merr) is one kind of medicinal plant. To obtain an
active substances with good physical and chemical properties, it is needs to do
optimization of making extracts, one with solvent optimization. Type of solvent
will determine the types of extracted substances in accordance with the
polarity. On this research, extraction of bawang tiwai bulbs simplicia by
maceration method using ethanol and water as solvent. This research is an
experimental research with varying ethanol and water in a three comparison
solvent that is water, ethanol, and mixture of water-etanol, then the yields is
calculated. Furthermore, the data were analyzed statistically using ANOVA
program to determine significant differences in the three yields. In each
extract was conducted phytochemical screening to determine the content of
secondary metabolites. The results showed significant differences in the yield
of bawang tiwai extract with three treatments and two repetitions. The results
of average yields using water as solvent is 8.75%, ethanol 5.3%; and
water-etanol 8.31%
