Potensi Senyawa Polifenol Antioksidan Dari Pisang Goroho (Musa Sapien SP.)

Abstract

Goroho banana is food material that has positive content effect on human body. The aims of this research were toanalyze polyphenolic content and to examine antioxidant activity of goroho. Polyphenolic antioxidant of goroho was extracted using methanol, ethanol and acetone for 2 hours at room temperature. Furthermore. extract was analyzed polyphenol content, such as total phenolic, total flavonoidand condensed tannin content. To examine antioxidant activity, free radical DPPH scavenging and total antioxidant (FRAP) were used by spectrophotometer analysis. Beside that, the best extract was evaluated its heat stability at 1000C for 15, 30, 45, 60 and 120 minutes.The highest total phenolic content was in acetone extract 181.87 mg/kg sample, total flavonoid content 4.75 mg/ kg sample in ethanol extract and condensed tannin 54.63 mg/kg sample in aceton extract. Acetone extract of goroho show the highest free radical scavenging activity (94.32%) compare to ethanol extract (85.39 %) and methanol extract (76.38 %). Although examination of total antioxidant (FRAP) on aceton extract of goroho showed the highest content than methanol and ethanol extract. Total antioxidant from acetone, methanol and ethanol extract were 1.83; 1.74; and1.74 μmol/L. This examination resulted that at 1000C there are alterations in phenolic content, free radical scavenging activity and total antioxidant after heating 120 minutes, although this three parameters alteration did not show extremedecreasing after 60 minute heating, because it still possess high activity, more than 80%. This result indicate goroho extract stability on heating depend on heating time. This results concluded that goroho possess to phenolic, flavonoid and tannin, also antioxidant activity
