Isolasi dan Identifikasi Struktur Karotenoid dari Ekstrak Bayam Merah (Amaranthus Tricolor L.)
Abstract: Amaranthus tricolor
L. was reported as source of carotenoid compounds (tetraterpenoids) which is a
natural pigments and has bioactivity as antioxidants. They are beneficial to
health. Carotenoids isolate are obtained by maceration method in methanol, saponification
with KOH / MeOH 5%, fractionated by vacuum column chromatography, preparative
thin layer chromatography (preparative-TLC) repeatedly and each fraction
monitored using thin layer chromatography (TLC). Structure analysis of
carotenoids based on UV, IR and GC-MS spectroscopic data showed similarities as
lutein structure.
