Phytochemical Screening and Total Phenolic Compounds of Eleiodoxa conferta (Griff.) Burr.
Keywords:
Eleiodoxa conferta (Griff.) Burr, Phytochemicals, Total phenolic compoundsAbstract
This study aimed to investigate the preliminary phytochemicals and total phenolic content from the fruits of Eleiodoxa conferta (Griff.) Burr. The extraction was performed using two methods: (1) cold maceration with organic solvents, dichloromethane and methanol, and (2) hot reflux extraction using water as a solvent. Results showed that methanol extracts yielded the highest percentage (% Yield) and exhibited good solubility in methanol. Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed the presence of terpenoids, saponins, coumarins, and anthraquinones. Additionally, tannins and cardiac glycosides were detected in the aqueous extract. Using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, the aqueous extract exhibited the highest total phenolic content (12.34±0.18 mg GAE/g), followed by the methanol extract (11.99±0.02 mg GAE/g). These findings suggest that Eleiodoxa conferta fruits contain predominantly polar compounds, providing a basis for further research into their bioactive properties and potential applications in herbal product development.
