Abstract

Edible oil, as an environmentally friendly solvent, supports the extraction of secondary metabolites based on green technology. Secondary metabolite compounds function as natural antioxidant agents found in moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera L.), also edible oils such as extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and virgin coconut oil (VCO). Furthermore, Moringa leaves extract in edible oil has been identified total phenolic compounds as relatively high. This research focuses on extracting phenolic compounds specifically from a formulation of moringa leaves powder, either in VCO or EVOO, by sonication methodology using variability in the weight of moringa leaves (0 to 4 grams) and the length of the extraction process (0 to 30 minutes). The best formula herbal oil uses 4 grams of moringa leaves and an extraction time of 20 minutes, with a total phenol content of 41.13 ± 1.06 mg GAE/g in moringa extract EVOO and 33.26 ± 1.84 mg GAE/g in moringa extract VCO. Further identification of functional groups using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) has demonstrated that our formulation products have phenolic compound spectra, namely O-H, C-H stretching and bending, C=O, C=C aromatic, and groups from C-O.
