Uji Efektifitas Ekstrak Kulit Kulim (Scorodocarpus Borneensis Becc) Sebagai Repellent Anti Nyamuk
The use of Scorodocarpus borneensis Becc as wood causes its availability in
nature to decrease. An alternative step to utilize and maintain the availability of
Kulim in nature is to utilize Scorodocarpus borneensis Becc’s bark extract. The
bioactive substances and scent of Scorodocarpus borneensis Becc are considered
capable of repelling insects and replacing DEET in chemical mosquito repellent
raw materials. The use of Kulim wood extract is considered to be far better than
the use of chemicals that can affect human health. This research was conducted in
three laboratories, namely the forestry laboratory, organic chemistry laboratory
and natural synthesis and chemical engineering laboratory. The parameters to
know the quality of the extract from the bark of the Scorodocarpus borneensis
Becc’s branch were yield observation, color observation, odor test and skin
sensitivity, phytochemical test and the extract effectiveness test against
mosquitoes which were expected to be in accordance with the criteria of the
pesticide commission of the Department of Agriculture in 1995. The results
showed that the yield from Scorodocarpus borneensis Becc’s wood extract was
found to be worth 0.83%, the color of the extract was brown because it used water
solvent, the distinctive aroma of the Scorodocarpus borneensis Becc was not
found in the extract because it was dominated by tannins and the extract felt warm
on the skin, phytochemical tests showed that the kulim extract contained
substances such as saponins, phenolic, steroids and tannins as well as the
effectiveness test of the extract against mosquitoes found a protection result of
44% which has not been able to meet the standard of repellent protection criteria
from the Pesticide Commission of the Department of Agriculture in 1995.
