Abstract

A research about effectivity of B pentamera fruits extract on mortality of Ae.aegypti larvae had been conducted during November 2017–January 2018 at P2B2 Research Center Baturaja and Biology Laboratory Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Sriwijaya. The aims of this study were to gain the effectivity and LC50 value of extract on larvae mortality. Completely Randomized Design was used as experimental design. Seven treatments were tested (Abate 0.0001 %; Negative control; 1%; 1.5%; 2%; 2.5% and 3% methanolic extract). Extraction of fruit material with methanol as maceration process followed with vacuum rotary evaporator concentration. One-way ANOVA was used as data analysis and LC50 obtained from Probit Analysis. The study found that concentration of methanolic fruit extract at 2.5% killed 52% larvae during 24 hr experiment and 63% during 48 hr. LC50 values of fruits extract were 3.34% for 24 hours experiment and 3.32% for 48 hours. Thin Layer Chromatoghraphy methods was used for bioautography test of fruit extract, and three spots were found and identified as terpenoid, tannin and flavonoid compounds, based on colour appearance. In conclusion, fruit extraxt of B. pentamera is considered effective in killing Ae aegypti larvae yet a potential larvicide for future study.
