Comprehensive Study

Elephantopus scaber has been used various ethnic groups in Indonesia and other countries as traditional medicine. Comprehensive study of the bioactivity of E. scaber is still limited, therefore this paper aims to explain the relationship between the use and its bioactivity. The writing of this article is based on a study of literature published online and offline used keywords E. scaber, bioactivities of E. scaber and uses of E. scaber. Ethnobotanically, E. scaber used to tread wound, nephritis, edema, chest pain, fever, scabies, sores, coughs, tonics, fever, and bronchitis, and asthma. The local communities in China, E. scaber leaves have been developed into "tea" to cure various diseases. The bioactivity of E. scaber is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anticancer, hepatoprotective, stimulates hair growth, anti-diabetes mellitus, anti-wound, antioxidant, and overcoming kidney disorders. Deoxyelephantopin is one of the main sesquiterpenes lactones derived from E. scaber has anti-cancer anticancer development. The development of E. scaber tea as an anti-cancer needs to be further investigated because this plant is very easy to find in Indonesia.

Background: Elephantopus scaber (ES) or tapak liman has been used by various ethnic groups in Indonesia and other countries as traditional medicine. Objectives: Comprehensive review of ES bioactivity is still limited, especially in the Indonesian language. Research Metodes: The writing of this article is based on a study of literature published on line and off line using several keywords Elephantopus scaber, bioactivities of Elephantopus scaber and uses of Elephantopus scaber. Results: In ethnobotany ES used wound medication, treatment of nephritis, edema, humidity, chest pain, fever, scabies, sores, coughs, tonics, fever, and bronchitis, and asthma. In China, ES leaves have been developed into "tea" to cure various diseases. The bioactivity of ES is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anticancer, hepatoprotective, stimulates hair growth, anti-diabetes mellitus, anti-wound, antioxidant, anti-neuroinflamation and overcoming kidney disorders. Conclusion: Deoxyelephantopin is one of the main sesquiterpenes lactones derived from ES has anti-cancer anti-cancer development. The development of ES tea as an anti-cancer needs to be further investigated because this plant is very easy to find in Indonesia.   Keywords: Elephantophus scaber, anti-microbial, anti-cancer, deoxyelephantopin

Tamarindus indica is one of the species in the Fabaceae which is widely used as food and traditional medicine. T. indica has naturalized in Indonesia, especially in Java Island and mostly only used as food, while its use as medicine is still limited. This study aims to explain the relationship between the use of T. indica as a traditional medicine and its bioactivity. The method used in this study is based on literature studies obtained online using the key word Tamarindus indica, uses of T. indica and bioactivities of T. indica. The use of T. indica as a traditional medicine is related to its bioactivity. Bioactivity of T. indica as antimicrobial, antidiabetic mellitus, anti-cholesterol, analgesic, antiobesity and antioxidant. Bioactivity of T. indica as anti-microbial and anti-cancer has the potential to be developed as a food preservative as well as providing healthy effects

<p>Papaya has widely used as traditional medicine. Papaya leaves and fruits contain flavonoids that can be used as anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-cancer. Flavonoid is one of secondary metabolite products. Flavonoids are ubiquitous in photosynthesis cells. Flavonoid content can be affected by enzyme which arranged from protein, meanwhile difference formation of gene can affect protein content. The aim of this research was to measure flavonoid content in leaves and fruits of genetical engineering papaya (var. California) and local papaya (var. Gandul). Leaf and fruit samples were dried to make powder. Samples were reflucted with HCl 4 N and extracted with Eter (three times). NaNO3 5 %, AlCl3 10 % and NaOH 1 M were added into samples then analyzed using spectrophotometer (á 454 nm) with quercetin as standard. Data analyzed using T test (p &lt; 0,05). The result showed in California leaves has higher concentration of flavonoid (0,73% w/ w ± 0,05) than Gandul leaves (0,69% w/w ± 0,08). meanwhile California fruits significantly has lower flavonoid concentration (0,59% w/w ± 0,02) than gandul fruits (0,8% w/w ± 0,03). Difference of flavonoids content in leaf and fruit indicates genetic variation affect flavonoids translocation among organ. According to variety California fruits have lower concentration than it’s leaves, meanwhile in gandul variety fruits have higher concentration than leaves. In conclusion, difference of flavonoid content in California variety and gandul variety indicates different ability in flavonoids distribution among individual.</p><p><br /><strong>Keywords</strong>: flavonoids, Carica papaya L. var.
