ABSTRACT Experimental study of analyzing the extract oil from sunflower seed compare with the commercial sunflower seed oil according to the company standard which includes determining of moisture content, free fatty acid content, peroxide value and the fatty acids compositions is reported in this paper. The result show that the moisture content of the extract oil is 0,43%, free fatly acid content is 0,47%, and the peroxide value is 5,22% mek/Kg. For the commercial sunflower seed oil company product that is 0,21% for the moisture, free fatty acid is 0,28% and the peroxide value is 4,89 mek/Kg. The gas chromatography analysis indicated that the most fatty acid from both samples is linoleic acid. The quality of the extract sunflower seed oil has not been improved to conform with the commercial quality according to the company standard, that is 0,08% for the free fatty acid and 2 mek/Kg for the peroxide value

Aktivitas Penstabil Oksigen Singlet dari Hasil Fraksinasi Ekstrak Metanol Daun Kayu Manis (Cinnamomum burmanii) terhadap Fotooksidasi Asam Askorbat

Telah dilakukan penelitian tentang aktivitas penstabil oksigen singlet dari hasil fraksinasi ekstrak metanol daun kayu manis (Cinnamomum burmanii) terhadap fotooksidasi asam askorbat dengan menggunakan cahaya dan eritrosin sebagai sensitiser. Serbuk daun kayu manis diekstraksi secara maserasi dengan metanol 95 % selama 3 x 24 jam, selanjutnya ekstrak yang diperoleh difraksinasi berturut-turut dengan pelarut n-heksan, etil asetat, butanol dan air. Penentuan kandungan total fenolik diukur dengan metode Folin-Ciocalteu dan aktivitas penstabil oksigen singlet diukur dengan laju penurunan konsentrasi asam askorbat. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa fraksi etil asetat memiliki kandungan total fenolik tertinggi yaitu 166,888 mg/g diikuti dengan fraksi butanol, n-heksan, dan air.  Fraksi etil asetat juga memiliki aktivitas penstabil oksigen singlet yang kuat, ditunjukkan dengan laju kerusakan fotooksidatif asam askorbat yang kecil yaitu -0,75 μg.mL-1.min-1A study of singlet oxygen quenching activity has been done from the fractination result of methanol extract of cinnamon leaf (Cinnamomum burmanii) against photo-oxidation of ascorbic acid by using light and erythrosine as sensitized. The cinnamon leaf powder was extracted by macerating with 95% methanol for  3 x 24 hours, then the extracts obtained was fractionated successively with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water solvent. The determination of total phenolic content was measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method and the singlet oxygen quenching activity was measured by the rate of decrease in ascorbic acid concentration. The results show that the ethyl acetate fraction has the highest total phenolic content of 166,888 mg/g followed by the fraction of butanol, n-hexane, and water, respectively. The ethyl acetate fraction also has a strong singlet oxygen quenching activity, indicated by a small photo-oxidative damage rate of ascorbic acid of                  -0.75 μg.mL-1.min-

Mekanisme Dan Kinetika Quenching Oksigen Singlet Dari Senyawa Fenolik Daun Cengkeh Terhadap Fotoksidasi Yang Disensitasi Oleh Eritrosin

The objectives of this research were to isolate phenolic compound of clove leaves and to study the mechanism and kinetic of singlet oxygen quenching. Clove leaves was extracted by steam distillation using water for 6 hours. Crude clove leaves oil was purifi ed by distillation under reduced pressure. Isolated fractions were determined its structure by infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS) techniques. The effects of 0, 500, 1000 and 1500 ppm isolated compound on the photooxidation of linoleic acid (0,03M) containing 15 ppm erythrosine in ethanol were studied by measuring peroxide value of the oil. The quenching mechanism and kinetics of eugenol were studied by the steady-state kinetic method. Samples of 0; 0,06 x 10-4; 0,12 x 10-4; 0,24 x 10-4 dan 0,48x 10-4 mM eugenol prepared in water contained 0; 17,05 x10-4; 34,10 x 10-4; 68,19 x 10-4 and 136,39 x 10-4 mM of erythrosine stored under fl uorescent light (4000 lux) at room temperature for 15 hours. The result indicated that eugenol content of clove oil, F1, F2, F3 and F4 were 49.68; 54.32; 87.16 and 73.65%, respectively. The structure of F3 was identifi ed by IR spectrometry which shows strong absorption at 3448 cm-1 indicating hydroxyl group from the phenolic compound and the 1H NMR spectra showed that the number of proton ring was 3 hydrogen while the mass spectrometry showed the molecular ion peak at m/e = 164 as base peak and the absence of peak at (M-41)+ as the indicator of eugenol. The result showed that eugenol had antiphotooxidation activity on erythrosine sensitized photooxidation of oil. The mechanism of singlet oxygen quenching on erythrosine photodegradation showed that eugenol only quenched singlet oxygen. The total quenching rate constant of eugenol was 4,42 x 108/M/s
