Study of composition chemical compounds methanol extract of Tambelo (Bactronophorus thoracites) Mimika Regency

This study aims to analyze bioactive compounds found in Tambelo maceration extracts in Mimika Regency. In this study, HPLC amino acid and GC-MS analysis were used. The results of the analysis show that Tambelo extract contains 16 types of amino acids and eight types of fatty acids. Amino acids and fatty acids function as energy sources, regulation of metabolism. Some types of antioxidant amino acids can reduce or counteract the negative effects of oxidant hydrogen ions by donating one electron. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the highest composition of HPLC amino acid analysis results is L-alanine (3.04%) while the highest composition results of GC-MS analysis are palmitic fatty acids (12.67%) included in the group of saturated fatty acids.
