Abstract :
Bawang lanang (Allium sativum L) is one of the medicinal plants
potential to be developed into traditional medicine. Traditional medicinal products
and medicinal plants of quality are determined one of them by the quality and
safety of the extract. The objective of this research is to know the characterization
of ethanol extract of onion lantang on physics, qualitative, and microbiology
parameters. Extraction method used was maceration method with 96% ethanol
solvent and KLT test using silica gel phase GF254 and toluene phase phase: ethyl
acetate (93: 7). The test results on the physical parameters of the extract is
viscous, brownish-black, typical smell of onion and spicy flavor. Water content
8% ± 2, shrinkage dried 9.93% ± 2.046, weight of extract type 1,1704 ± 0.0498,
ash content 0.146 ± 0.2323, ethanol soluble extract 19,84% ± 4,7690, water
soluble 11,50% ± 4,082. The results of phytochemical screening of onion liver
extract (Allium sativum L) contained essential oils, flavonoids, saponins, and
triterpenoids. The result of extract TLC test containing essential oil with hRf of 68
with purple spot color on UV 366. The result of total plate value test obtained an
average value of 0.9 x 102
colony / gram and test result of mold / yeast obtained
average value 1.0 x 102
colony / gram
