Kalanchoe tomentosa is one of the plants of the Crassulaceae tribe that can lower blood sugar and contains compounds of terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, fatty acids, steroids, and triterpenoids. This study aims to isolate and identify chemical compounds from dichloromethane extract of Kalanchoe tomentosa leaves, as well as to test the inhibitory activity of the α-amylase enzyme. Extraction was carried out by maceration using dichloromethane as a solvent, then dichloromethane extract was purified using column chromatography, the pure isolate was obtained in the form of white powder, and an inhibition test was carried out against the α-amylase enzyme. The thin layer chromatography data of pure isolates compared to pure β-sitosterol are similar. Based on the research data, it can be concluded that the chemical structure of the pure isolate is β-sitosterol, the methylene chloride extract of K. tomentosa leaves has an inhibitory activity against the α-amylase enzyme with an inhibition value of 65%. This value is greater than the positive control of acarbose which only has 37% inhibition and β-sitosterol compound by 6.7%. This value is smaller when compared to the control of acarbose at the same concentration which obtained 5% inhibition.

Exploration of microorganisms Actinomycetes can produce antibiotic compounds. One of the bacteria that can produce antibiotic compounds is the KP13 bacterial isolate. The purpose of this study was to determine the character of the fraction of KP13 isolates using the densitometry method and the spray / colouring reaction of thin layer chromatography elution. The wavelengths used for densitometry 210 nm and spray reagents used include ninhydrin, Dragendorff, 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine (2,4-DNPH), and sulfuric acid anisaldehyde. The results of the study using densitometry at a wavelength of 210 nm showed the highest peak chromatogram at Rf 0.78. The compound that is thought to be responsible for the Rf value of 0.78 has the characteristics of Terpenoid compounds, alkaloids, and carbonyl.

Background : A simple bio-assay for determination of streptomycin hyphenated with planar chromatography techniques was developed. Objective : This study aims to validate the method for identification and determination of streptomycin in injection preparations with TLC-bioautography. Methods : Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) was performed on the silica Gel GF-254 using KH 2 PO 4 solution as mobile solvent. The visualization was performed by spraying 2% resorcinol. Direct bi autography was developed using Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 as a bacterial test, grown on the nutrient agar medium at 37 o C for 24 hours. The method was validated corresponding to linearity, limit of detection (LOD), intra day precision, and accuracy parameters. The accuracy was measured using streptomycin injection as a sample. Results : The Results showed that the KH 2 PO 4 solution at 7.5% concentration was found to be the optimized solvent with Rf value of 0.5. The linear equation was y = 10.176x + 4.046 at 150 - 350 µg/mL concentration range with the linearity coefficient, Limit of Detection, accuracy, and variation coefficient were 0.9907; 40 ppm; 96.37 + 2.22% (with an RSD value of 2.31%); and 1.63 respectively. Conclusion : The prospective TLC-bioautographic method was applied for the identification and determination of streptomycin in a preparation using a single eluent KH 2 PO 4 . The eluent system optimization remains necessary for the identification and determination of the mixture of streptomycin with other antibiotics, such as aminoglycoside groups.

Salak seeds have been developed as a beverage, but there was still a little amount of research that focused on salak seeds. This research was conducted to find out the chemical compounds and the antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract and fraction of salak fruits seeds ( Salacca zalacca (Gaertn.) Voss. ) which have been grown extensively in Sleman Yogyakarta. Extraction was conducted using maceration, followed by fractionation using vacuum liquid chromatography. The identification of the chemical compounds contained in the ethanolic extract and fraction was performed by thin layer chromatography method, while the antioxidant activity was performed by DPPH method. Comparison of antioxidant activity was seen using IC50 values. The results showed that ethanol extract and fraction contained phenol, flavonoid, and tannin. The largest antioxidant activity was found in F7 with an IC50 value of 110.16 μg / ml.

Polymerization of purified eugenol from clove leaf oil using concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst has been done in this research. Clove leaf oil was purified by vacuum redistillation, acid-base extraction, and vacuum fractionation to yield eugenol. The eugenol was polymerized with concentrated sulfuric acid in ratio 1: 2. Polyeugenol from eugenol of clove leaf oil resulted from redistillation, extraction, and fractionation is in solid form (yield: 88.14%); from redistillation and extraction is also in solid form (yield: 86.15%); from redistillation clove leaf oil is in gel form (yield: 100.29%). Structure of polyeugenol was determined by infrared spectrophotometer and characterized by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Molecular weight of the product was calculated by viscometry method.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15408/jkv.v0i0.4685

Kaemferia galanga L. rhizome is a traditional crop which is widely used for herbal medicine. This research is started from the extraction of maceration using ethanol 80% and partition with chloroform:water. 80 % ethanol extract and chloroform fraction tested antioxidant activity with DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), phytochemicals with reagents, separation of the active compound by TLC (thin layer chromatography) analytical and preparative TLC, the identification of compounds with sliding reagent using UV-Vis. The test results on the antioxidant activity of 80% ethanol extract of 64,93% (100 ppm) and chloroform fraction of 54,9 % (100 ppm) with indigo IC50 of 13,07 mg/mL and 81,9 mg mL. 80 % ethanol extract and chloroform fraction has potential as a source of natural antioxidants. Phytochemical test showed 80% ethanol extract contains flavonoids, alkaloids and tannins. At the chloroform fraction extract containing flavonoids. The separation of the active compounds with analytical TLC using eluent PE: ethyl acetate (5: 1) resulted in 7 stain (Rf 0,06 to 0,96) and preparative TLC produce 8 spots (Rf from 0,19 to 0,83). Results from UV-Vis spectrum can be presumed that such a class of flavonoid compounds flavanones or dihidroflavonol.
