ABSTRACT Corn (Zea Mays L.) is widely developed in Indonesia. Corn kernels showed total phenolic and antioxidant activity. Antioxidants have the potential as photoprotectors, therefore, plants containing phenolic compounds can be used in the prevention of free radicals. For this reason, researcher is interested in further researching the phytochemical screening, antioxidant activity and sunscreen testing from extracts of stems, leaves, hair and leaf wrapping from corn (Zea mays L.). The samples used were corn plants (corn silk, corn leaves, corn stalks and leaf wrapping corn) originating from Kauditan area, North Minahasa. The results of the study showed that the leaf contained saponin and flavonoid compounds, the stem contained alkaloid and saponin compounds, the hair contained alkaloid and flavonoid compounds, and the leaf wrapping only contained alkaloid compounds. The highest to lowest total phenolic content values starting from the stem were 46.93 μg / mL, the leaf wrapping 37.76 μg / mL, the leaf 26.63 μg / mL and hair 14.49 μg / mL. The leaf has the highest antioxidant activity with a value of 72.81% followed by 62.87% stem then wrapping leaf 43.13%  and finally hair 29.14%. The SPF value of the stem was included in the ultra protection with a value of 16.117 followed by the leaves included in the maximum protection with an SPF value of 10.902. While the hair with SPF value of 0.6 and wrapping leaf with SPF value of 0.222 are included in the minimum protection. Keywords: Corn (Zea Mays L.), Sunscreen, Antioxidants, Phenol ABSTRAK Jagung (Zea Mays L.) banyak dikembangkan di Indonesia.

Sampel yang digunakan ialah tanaman jagung (rambut jagung, daun jagung, batang jagung dan daun pembungkus jagung) yang berasal dari daerah Kauditan, Minahasa Utara. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan daun mengandung senyawa saponin dan flavonoid, batang mengandung senyawa alkaloid dan saponin, rambut mengandung senyawa alkaloid dan flavonoid, dan daun pembungkus hanya mengandung senyawa alkaloid. Nilai kandungan total fenolik  yang paling tinggi sampai paling rendah dimulai dari batang sebesar 46.93 μg/mL, daun pembungkus 37.76 μg/mL, daun 26.63 μg/mL dan rambut 14.49 μg/mL. Daun memiliki aktivitas antioksidan yang paling tinggi dengan nilai 72.81% diikuti oleh batang 62.87% kemudian daun pembungkus 43.13% dan yang terakhir adalah rambut 29.14%. Nilai SPF batang termasuk dalam proteksi ultra dengan nilai 16,117 diikuti oleh daun yang termasuk dalam proteksi maksimal dengan nilai SPF 10,902. Sedangkan rambut dengan nilai SPF  0,6 dan daun pembungkus dengan nilai SPF 0,222 termasuk dalam proteksi minimal. Kata Kunci : Jagung (Zea Mays L.), Tabir Surya, Antioksidan, Fenol

Hypertension is considered a risk factor for coronary heart disease, and its prevalence has increased substantially. Inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-I) is key to lower blood pressure, making it an excellent treatment for hypertension. Corn (Zea mays L.) is an important source of bioactive peptides with potential anti-hypertensive activity related to ACE-I inhibition. These peptides can be obtained through the hydrolysis of corn gluten meal (CGM), as wetmilling by-products. The aim was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo ACE-I inhibitory activity of blue CGM hydrolysates. Enzymatic digestion in vitro of blue CGM was conducted at different times. Hydrolysis for 360 min significantly increased both soluble protein and antioxidant activity by 4 and 8-fold respectively, the maximum ACE-I inhibition (94.3 %) was observed with 260 min hydrolysate. Mice were treated with the blue CGM hydrolysate (260 min), captopril or PBS to test the bioavailability in vivo. The CGM hydrolysate was detected in serum after 5 and up to 30 min after ingestion, showing the maximum ACE-I inhibitory capacity (59 %) during the first 15 min. Overall, this work showed that the blue CGM hydrolysate could serve as a functional food ingredient with antihypertensive effect due to its blood pressure-lowering peptides.RESUMENLa hipertensión es factor de riesgo en enfermedades coronarias, y su prevalencia ha aumentado sustancialmente. La inhibición de enzima convertidora de angiotensina (ECA) es clave para disminuir presión arterial, y excelente tratamiento para hipertensión. El maíz (Zea mays L.) es fuente de péptidos bioactivos con actividad antihipertensiva por inhibición de ECA. Péptidos pueden obtenerse por hidrólisis de harina de gluten de maíz (HGM), como subproducto de molienda húmeda. El objetivo fue evaluar in vitro e in vivo actividad inhibitoria de ECA en hidrolizados de HGM azul. La digestión enzimática in vitro de HGM fue conducida a diferentes tiempos. La hidrólisis por 360 min aumento significativamente proteína soluble y actividad antioxidante de 4 y 8 veces, respectivamente; la máxima inhibición de ECA (94.3 %) fue observada a 260 minutos del hidrolizado. Ratones fueron tratados con HGM hidrolizado (260 minutos), captopril o PBS para evaluar biodisponibilidad in vivo. Después de la ingestión, HGM hidrolizado fue detectado en suero en 5 hasta 30 minutos, mostrando máxima inhibición de ECA (59 %) durante los primeros 15 minutos. En general, este trabajo mostró que hidrolizado de HGM podría servir como ingrediente funcional en alimentos con efecto antihipertensivo debido a péptidos reductores de presión arterial.

Objective: Corn cob is a part of plant Zea mays that have a phenolic and flavonoid compounds. This research aims to evaluate total phenolic and flavonoid content, free radical scavenging activity and tyrosinase inhibiton of corn cob (Zea mays) extract. Methods: Corn cob were determined in Poltekkes Kemenkes Surakarta. Meanwhile, corn cob were extracted using maceration method applying 70% ethanol solvent. This extract were analyzed through the total fenolic and flavonoids content tests apply spectrofotometric UV Vis, antioxidant activity using radical scavenging test 2,2-difenill-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) and tyrosinase inhibition test applying in vitro tyrosinase enzyme inhibition. Results: Total phenolic content of the corn cob extract were 1.76 %b/b EAG, while the total of flavonoids content were 0.42%b/b EK. The antioxidant activity using DPPH method test of corn cob extract were values IC50 38.57 µg/ml. Tyrosinase inhibition of corn cob extract were values IC50 919.78µg/ml. Conclusion: Corn cob extract had antioxidant activity and tyrosinase inhibition.
