IDENTIFIKASI ANTOSIANIN EKSTRAK STROBERI MENGGUNAKAN NATURAL DEEP EUTECTIC SOLVENTS (NADES) MELALUI ANALISIS KEMOMETRIK DAN PENGUJIAN TOKSISITAS SECARA IN VIVO
Description
Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) is a natural bioactive source rich in phenolic compounds, especially
anthocyanins. This study aims to compare the chemical characteristics and toxicity of strawberry extracts
obtained using NADES and conventional solvents. Functional group analysis was performed using FTIR,
while differences in chemical patterns were evaluated through PCA chemometric analysis. Qualitative and
quantitative profiles of anthocyanin compounds were analyzed using LC-MS/MS, and toxicity testing was
evaluated based on LD50 values using the OECD 423 method. FTIR results showed significant differences
in functional group absorption between strawberry extracts using NADES and conventional solvents,
especially in the O-H, C=O, and aromatic C=C groups. PCA of the FTIR spectrum can group strawberry
extracts based on solvent type. LC-MS/MS analysis showed that the anthocyanin content in strawberry
extracts using NADES was higher than in conventional solvents. Toxicity testing showed that the LD50 value
of strawberry extract using NADES LD50 < 5000 mg/kg, while conventional solvents were LD50 < 2000
mg/kg. The results showed that NADES has the potential to be a safe alternative solvent for the extraction
of bioactive compounds from strawberrie
