Uji Karakteristik Fitokimia Dan Sifat Fisik Dari Air Dan Minyak Pohon Camphor (Dryobalanops Aromatica Gaertn.) Sebagai Tonikum
The high demands of daily life require the body to be in optimal condition. However, excessive physical exertion can lead to fatigue. To alleviate fatigue and quickly restore energy, tonic substances, including stamina-boosting tonics, can offer a solution. In addition to synthetic substances, tonics can also be derived from natural sources, such as the water and oil of the kapur tree (Dryobalanops aromatica Gaertn.), found in the natural forests of Sibagindar Village, North Sumatra. This study aims to identify the physicochemical properties and secondary metabolite compounds present in the water and oil of the kapur tree as potential tonics. The results indicate that both the water and oil of the kapur tree have a strong, pungent aroma. They also share the same color spectrum, Yellow-Red. The viscosity test of kapur tree oil 1 showed the highest viscosity (6.579 cP). The pH of the kapur tree water is 6, while the oil has a pH of 7. UV-Vis spectrophotometric analysis revealed that the water contains alkaloids, with the highest concentration of 27.5375 mg/g, flavonoids at 14.5845 mgQE/g, and phenols at 5.110 mgGAE/g. In contrast, phytochemical screening of the kapur tree oil, without the use of solvents or extraction methods, showed negative results for alkaloids, flavonoids, and phenols. GC-MS analysis of the kapur tree water identified the major compounds, 2-propenoic acid, 3-phenyl-, methyl ester (10.42%) and endo-borneol (6.72%), which are potentially responsible for its tonic effects. The GC-MS analysis of the kapur tree oil, for the first time, revealed the presence of n-Hexadecanoic acid (14.92%), beta-Ocimene (11.76%), and Octadecanoic acid (4.05%).
