Identification of secondary metabolite contents on marine rabbit extract (dolabella auricularia)

Abstract

The aim was to identify all forms of secondary metabolites contained in one of the marine biota namely sea rabbit (Dolabella Aurikularia). Method, Sampling and sample preparation were carried out at Toronipa Beach, Soropia District, Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi. Then the sea rabbit sample was tested at the Phytochemical Laboratory of the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Halu Oleo. The tools used are several tools in the phytochemical laboratory, pharmacy at Haluoleo University. Ingredients namely sea rabbits and some chemical reagents used. The extraction process is then carried out and identifies secondary metabolic components (phytochemical analysis), including examinations: Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Tannins, Saponins, and Terpenoids. The results, The extraction process is then carried out and identifies secondary metabolic components (phytochemical analysis), including examinations: Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Tannins, Saponins, and Terpenoids. Conclusion, there is Sea rabbit (Dolabella Aurikularia), positively contains several secondary metabolic compounds, qualitatively, specifically: Flavonoids, Alkaloids, Saponins, Tannins, and Terpenoids. These compounds are very useful for health, especially in the pharmaceutical world.
