Bioactive Compounds Fruit Eaten Tapanuli Orangutans in Camp Mayang North Sumatera

Research output: Contribution to journal › Conference article › peer-review

Abstract

Bioactive compounds are important components that the Tapanuli orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis) needs to maintain its health. It is important to know the specific bioactive components contained in the fruit that Tapanuli orangutans eat and the effective solvents to provide up-to-date information about the content of the fruit they eat. This research uses the maceration method with ethanol and methanol solvents to determine the solvent that produces larger extracts as well as liquid chromatography-mass spectrum to analyze the bioactive component profiles of five types of fruit eaten by Tapanuli orangutans from Camp Mayang, North Sumatra. The research results showed that the ethanol solvent produced greater extracts and the five types of fruit were dominated by bioactive compounds dissolved in ethanol. The results of LC-MS/MS analysis of the ethanol extract showed that the specific bioactives that dominate the fruit eaten by Tapanuli orangutans are Campnosperma auriculatum, namely Triterpenoid (Oleanonic Acid), Agathis borneensis, namely Terpenoid (Cinerin I), Artocarpus heterophyllus, namely Steroid (Nandrolone), Castanopsis argantea, namely Terpenoid (Semiplenamide). A), and Aglaia tomentosa, namely Triterpenoids (Methyl Angolensate).
