Introduction Trigona honey (Tetragonula biroi) is a type of honey produced by stingless bees that is one of the local products in South Sulawesi with the Tetragonula species widely known to the public. Objective This study was to determine the nutritional content of trigona honey and components of its secondary metabolite compounds as herbal therapy for the disease. Method This study aims to analyze the content of bioactive compounds of trigona honey is using phytochemical test and proximate test method. Result Phytochemical test show trigona honey had bioactive compounds flavonoid, alkaloid and triterpenoid. Proximate test using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) showed that methanol extract of honey trigona (tetragonula biroi) contains vitamin C 0.15%, flavonoids 159.62 ppm, polyphenols 133.52 ppm, and there are magnesium, calcium, zinc and beta carotene. Conclusion Trigona honey contains metabolite compounds such as polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and triterpenoids.

BackgroundFree radicals are involved in the process of carcinogenesis. Conventional antioxidants and antiinflammatory drugs have the disadvantages of side effects and high costs. Banana peel contains phenolic and non-phenolic antioxidants that are pivotal in removing inflammatory components by inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting protease inhibitors from oxidative damage, and preventing fibroblast degradation which protects the body against the ill effects of free radicals.
