Abstract
Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms, commonly known as water hyacinth, is one of the world's most invasive aquatic plants of the Pontederiaceae family occurring in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Although, E. crassipes causes significant ecological and socioeconomic issues such as a high loss in water resources, it has multipurpose applications since it is famous for many industrial applications such as bioenergy, biofertilizer production, wastewater treatment (absorption of heavy metals), and animal feed. Furthermore, E. crassipes is rich in diverse bioactive secondary metabolites including sterols, alkaloids, phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. These secondary metabolites are well known for a wide array of therapeutic properties. The findings of this review suggest that extracts and some isolated compounds from E. crassipes possess some pharmacological activities including anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, skin whitening, neuroprotective, and hepatoprotective activities, among other biological activities such as allelopathic, larvicidal, and insecticidal activities. The present review comprehensively summarizes the chemical composition of E. crassipes, reported to date, along with its traditional uses and pharmacological and biological activities.

Isolation of Flavonoid Compounds from Amyl Alcohol Fraction of Golek Mango Leaf (Mangifera indica L cv. Golek). JURNAL KIMIA SAINS DAN APLIKASI 2019. [DOI: 10.14710/jksa.22.3.67-72] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Mango plant (Mangifera indica L.) is a tropical fruit plant with high nutrition in the Anacardiaceae family. One of the several varieties of mango plants spread throughout Indonesia, namely mango golek. This study aims to obtain flavonoid isolates and find out the types of flavonoids in the leaves of mango golek. In this study, maceration was carried out to obtain ethanol extract, then followed by phytochemical tests, removal of chlorophyll using distilled water (1: 1), hydrolysis using 2N HCl, followed by liquid-liquid extraction using ethyl acetate and amyl alcohol. In the amyl alcohol fraction, flavonoid was separated using gravity column chromatography with a mixture of eluent n-butanol:n-hexane:methanol (4:2:1). Phytochemical tests showed positive results for alkaloids, saponins, tannins, quinones and flavonoids. UV-Vis spectrophotometer analysis provides absorption at a wavelength of 263 nm while FTIR analysis showed the presence of O-H, C=O, C-O-C aliphatic, and C-O alcohol groups. LC-MS/MS instrument analysis showed m/z of 300 which is the molecular mass of isoflavone compound.
