Selekop (Lepisanthes amoena (Hassk.) Leenh.) plant leaves are used by the Dayak tribe of East Kalimantan as traditional cosmetics. Selekop fruit is also edible, but not well known. This study was conducted to obtain the phytochemical content and antioxidant assay in flesh, seed and pericarp extracts from the fruit of Selekop. Phytochemical analysis was conducted on ethanol extract for identification of flavonoid, alkaloid, tannin, saponin, triterpenoid and steroid. The antioxidant activity was done by DPPH assay with ascorbic acid as positive control. The flesh contained flavonoid, saponin, and tannin; the seed contained flavonoid, alkaloid, saponin, triterpenoid, and tannin; and the pericarp contained flavonoid, alkaloid, saponin, triterpenoid, and tannin. Analysis of antioxidant activity revealed the following Inhibitory Concentration (IC 50 values): 122.51 ppm of flesh, 63.30 ppm of seed, 53.21 ppm of pericarp and 3.06 ppm of ascorbic acid. Based on these results, the ethanol extract of the seed and the flesh had a phytochemical content and antioxidant activity which was better than the flesh extract from Selekop fuit.

Centella asiatica is one of the traditional herbs found commonly in Malaysia. It has been used as an important ingredient in many traditional medicine practices due to its antioxidant and pharmacological properties. This study was done by adding three different percentages of C. asiatica extracts (20%, 40% and 60%) in noodles. Sensory evaluation involving appearance, colour, taste and aroma (affective test), physicochemical properties (texture, pH and colour), antioxidant activity (DPPH, FRAP, TPC and TFC assays) and nutritional composition on control noodle and herbal noodles enriched with C. asiatica were conducted. For sensory test, control noodle is the most favorable followed by 60% herbal noodle. There was a reduction in the firmness of cooked 20% and 60% herbal noodles. The pH value of herbal noodles also decreased as the concentration of herbal noodles increased due to the addition of C. asiatica. Colour analysis showed that the L* values of all the samples were increased, a* values decreased which indicated strong green colour among the herbal noodles while b* values showed the highest value for control noodle. Antioxidant tests such as DPPH showed that 60% herbal noodle exhibited higher free radical scavenging with a value of 49.200% as compared to control noodle (16.027%). The same finding was observed for FRAP assay where 60% herbal noodle displayed higher value (111.335 µg/mL) than control noodle (71.233 µg/mL). TFC of 60% herbal noodle also showed the highest value as compared to other noodles. However, TPC of 40% herbal noodles had greater value as compared to 60% herbal noodle. A decrease in the nutritional value of herbal noodle compared to control noodle was also observed. In conclusion, herbal noodles enriched with C. asiatica showed promising antioxidant potential which can be used in functional food applications

Objective: The objective of present study was the development, characterization and evaluation of poly-herbal ointment and gel formulations of Nerium Indicum Mill, Artocarpus Heterophyllus Lam, Murraya Koenigii Linn, Punica Granatum Linn extract. Plant derived substances and herbal medicines have recently attracted the great interest towards their versatile application. Medicinal plants are the richest source of bioactive compounds used in traditional and modern medicine. The ointment and gel formulation of plant extract has a sound approach, The poly-herbal ointment and gel formulation were evaluated for its physicochemical parameters like color, odour, pH, spreadability, extrudability, consistency, diffusibility, solubility, washability, non-irritancy and stability. Materials and methods: Extract of all four plants has been separated by the soxhlet extraction by 70% ethanol. Poly-herbal ointment and gel formulation has been prepared by mixing the extract of Nerium Indicum Mill, Artocarpus Heterophyllus Lam, Murraya Koenigii Linn, Punica Granatum Linn with carbapol 940 for Gel formulation and PEG 2000 & PEG 600 for ointment formulation. Results and conclusion: Physicochemical evaluation shows that the poly-herbal ointment and gel formulations fulfilled the criteria as herbal formulation and irritancy test also performed to indicate the effectiveness and efficacy of prepared ointment and gel formulations. The poly-herbal ointment and gel formulations were also evaluated for its stability at various temperature conditions which shows no change in the irritancy, spreadability and diffusion study. Thus it could become a medium to use the medicinal properties of extracts effectively and easily as a simple dosage form. Keywords: Nerium Indicum Mill, Artocarpus Heterophyllus Lam, Murraya Koenigii Linn, Punica Granatum Linn, extract, ointment, gel.
