Abstract Antioxidants have an important role in delaying the oxidation process and preventing the occurrence of degenerative diseases in the body. Antioxidants consist of synthetic and natural. the use of synthetic antioxidants in a relatively long period is hazardous so that the use of natural antioxidants is considered more potential and safe for the body. The process of extracting secondary metabolites from the leaves of bangun-bangun (Coleus amboinicus L. ) is carried out by the maceration method with methanol, then partitioned in stages with n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate. This research intends to identify secondary metabolites and test antioxidant activity from the ethyl acetate fraction with the DPPH Phytochemical screening results of ethyl acetate fraction showed the different secondary metabolite groups such as alkaloids, phenolics & polyphenols, flavonoids, coumarin, and triterpenoids. Antioxidant activity (IC. obtained is 64. 97 with a healthy category, so that the potential to be used as a natural antioxidant. Keywords: Antioxidants. Phytochemical Screening.

Identification of secondary metabolic and test of activity ethyl acetate fraction of bangun- bangun (Coleus amboinicus lour. ) Leaves as antioxidant INTRODUCTION diterpenoid, triterpenoid, sesquiterpenoid. Antioxidants have an essential part phenolic, flavonoid, alcohol, and aldehyde in delaying the process of oxidation in esters (Arumugam et al. , 2016. Riyanto et food and preventing degenerative diseases al, 2. which has antioxidant activity, for health caused by free radicals (Rani, diarrhea, flatulence, constipation, cough Akbarirad Neurodegenerative liver-kidney, include coronary heart disease, stroke, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, diabetes, and cancer (Serlahwaty et al. analgesic, immunomodulatory, stimulate The free radicals are unstable breast milk production . and atomic/molecular species because they hepatoprotective (Damanik et al. , 2. have one or more unpaired electrons (Mbah et al. , 2. Minimizing the MATERIALS AND METHODS influence of free radicals requires an Preparation Antioxidants can be divided amboinicus Lour. into two, such as synthetic and natural. Coleus Fresh leaves samples were taken and The use of synthetic antioxidants is Sub-district hazardous for health because it has side Parmaksian (Toba Samosir distric. The The side effects caused by using sample is cleaned and dried in an open synthetic antioxidants in a long period room, which avoids direct contact with such as liver swelling, affecting enzymes. The sample is pulverized by fatal bleeding in the pleural cavity, and using a blender. the powder is continued drops of the epididymis and pancreas for extraction. This research was carried (Andarwulan et al. , 1.

Preparation and extraction process of Bangun-bangun leaves have a variety Coleus amboinicus Lour. of bioactive compounds that can be tested 950 g of Coleus amboinicus Lour. for their activity. Coleus amboinicus L. Simplicia 76 volatile compounds and 30 non-volatile methanol . for 2 days. After 2 days, it compounds such as the monoterpenoid, was filtered using Whatman No. 1 paper.

Then the filtrate was concentrated using a methanol 515 nm (Kedare & Singh, 2. vacuum rotary evaporator to obtain a crude extract, and the residue was two Variations concentration of ethyl acetate fraction Coleus amboinicus Lour. , which continued by partitioning gradually using used 10 ppm, 20 ppm, 30 ppm, 40 ppm, n-hexane . , chloroform . , and ethyl and 50 ppm and methanol with DPPH as acetate solvents. The ethyl acetate fraction negative control and ascorbic acid with was concentrated, and a viscous extract variations in the concentration of 2. 5 ppm, was obtained. The viscous ethyl acetate 0 ppm, 3. 5 ppm, 4. 0 ppm, and 4. 5 ppm. extract was continued to phytochemical All of the measurements were carried out screening and testing its antioxidant with three times replication.
