Pengaruh Lama Maserasi Ekstrak Daging Keong Mata Merah (Cerithidea Otbusa) Terhadap Aktivitas Antioksidan
The red-eyed snail (Cerithidea obtusa) is one of the gastropod species that lives in mangrove environments and has potential as an alternative source of animal protein. In addition, this animal also contains various bioactive compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and saponins, which are known to have antioxidant activity. These compounds play a crucial role in neutralising free radicals that can cause cellular damage. This study aimed to investigate the effect of maceration time on the content of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of red-eyed snail meat flour extract. The study was conducted experimentally using a non-factorial Complete Randomised Design (CRD) consisting of three maceration time treatments: 24 hours (M24), 48 hours (M48), and 72 hours (M72). The parameters observed included qualitative and quantitative identification of secondary metabolites and measurement of antioxidant activity based on IC₅₀ values. The analysis results showed that all extracts contained alkaloids, flavonoids, and saponins. The M24 treatment produced the highest antioxidant activity with an IC₅₀ value of 66.20 ppm (strong category), followed by M48 with 245.72 ppm (moderate category), and M72 with 463.38 ppm (weak category). The decrease in antioxidant activity with increasing maceration time is likely due to the degradation of bioactive compounds due to prolonged contact with the solvent. Therefore, maceration for 24 hours is the optimal duration to obtain extracts with the highest antioxidant activity from red-eyed snail meat powder.
