EXTRACTION OF COLOR PIGMENT AND DETERMINATION OF FLAVONOID CONTENT OF ANDONG LEAVES (CORDYLINE FRUTICOSA L.) SOURCE MAKASSAR CITY
Journal Title: Journal of Biological and Scientific Opinion - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
Andong (Cordyline fructicosa L.) is the family of asparagaceae which knows as decorated plant, because the color is very interesting so that potentially as a source of natural pigments. This research was aimed to extract the color pigments and determine the total percentage of flavonoid content in Andong leaves (Cordyline fructicosa L.). The extraction uses the various of water solvent, ethanol, ethyl acetate and methanol which contain HCl P 1 % by using maseration method. The determination of the total percentage of flavonoid content is done by using colometric methanol. Based on the research was obtained the rendament extract of water 13, 49 %, ethanol 15, 69 %, methano l 8, 10 %, and ethyl acetate 9, 15 %. The total of flavonoid extract of water 1, 4 %, ethanol 2, 6 %, methanol 1, 7 %, the highest percentage of four solvent is ethyl acetat 3, 4 % calculated as a rutin.
