Abstract

Soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata L.) contains a many potential active compounds, one of which is antifungal. Bolu Paranggi is a traditional cake from Mandar (West Sulawesi), made from wheat flour and brown sugar so it is at risk of being damaged and overgrown with fungus. This study aimed to extract soursop leaves using double RO (Reverse Osmosis) water solvent with variations in extraction time and the ratio of soursop leaf mass and water volume, identify groups of secondary metabolites compounds from soursop leaf water extract, isolate and identify fungi in Paranggi Bolu cake, and perform antifungal activity test of soursop leaf extract against fungi isolated from Paranggi Bolu cake. Extraction of soursop leaves using double RO water as a solvent with maceration for 24 hours and heating for 15 minutes with a variation of the ratio of soursop leaf mass and water volume of 1:1; 1:1.5; 1:2; 1:2.5; and 1:3. The analysis of the secondary metabolite compound was analyzed using the phytochemical test method and antifungal activity using the agar diffusion method on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) media and then measuring the inhibition zone using 6 mm diameter paper discs. The results showed that extraction with the heating method for 15 minutes produced more extract than the 24-hour maceration method at room temperature (RT), where the highest amount of extract was obtained from the ratio of soursop leaf mass and water volume of 1:3. The results of the phytochemical analysis of soursop leaf water extract, both heating and maceration methods, contained flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids and saponins, and antifungal activity tests against Aspergillus isolated from Bolu Paranggi showed weak antifungal activity at extract concentrations of 5,000 ppm - 50,000 ppm. with an inhibition zone diameter of 2 mm. Keywords: soursop leaf extract, antifungal, Bolu Paranggi cake

Abstract

The massive Covid-19 pandemic has caused countries to implement policies in the form of social restrictions to limit activities outside and only carry out activities indoors. The risk of contracting the Covid-19 virus causes a reduction in public activities in the form of commercial, institutional, and public service facilities. This has an impact on the amount of waste generated by people in urban areas during the pandemic. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of covid-19 on the amount of waste that enters the Toisapu TPS in Ambon city and to see the difference in the average amount of waste before the pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic with Paired Sample T Test analysis using IBM SPSS statistics 25 application. The results showed that there was a correlation between the two variables (0.693) which means that the correlation of the amount of waste entering the Toisapu TPS between before and during covid-19 was strong but not significant as indicated by the probability value (sig.) 0.013 0.05. While the calculated t value is 3.16 2.63 (t table value) so it can be concluded that the average amount of waste before and during the Covid-19 period is different.                 Keywords: Pandemic, waste, T test
