Pulutan leaf (Urena lobata Linn) is a type of plant that has long been used by the community as a remedy for various diseases. This research was conducted to determine the components of active compounds contained in the ethanol extract of pulutan leaves using GC-MS. The identification results showed that 50% ethanol extract of the pulutan leaves contained 5 compounds dominated by carbonic acid,monoamide,N-(2-ethylphenyl)-,propyl ester, Stigmasta-3,5-diene, and n-Hexadecanoic acid. Whereas 70% ethanol extract contained 18 compounds dominated by 4h-pyran-4-one, 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, phenol, 2,6- dimethoxy-, and n-hexadecanoic acid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
