Etlingera coccinea (Blume) S. Sakai Nagam is a member of Zingiberaceae family. It is commonly known as Tuhau in Sabah Malaysia and consumed as a local delicacy and used as a traditional remedy for stomachache food poisoning and gastric problems. The plant has been reported to have bioactive properties such as anticancer antioxidant and antibacterial. Due to the high demand for this bioactive compound in national and international markets chemical profiling of leaves stems and rhizomes from E. coccinea was carried out. Eight germplasms were collected from Trail 1 (Kg. Gensurai) and Trail 2 (Kg. Melangkap Noriou) and submitted to the hydrodistillation process to obtain the essential oil before analysing with GC-MS. From the result obtained a total of 85 compounds were found and 26 of these were terpenoid compounds. There are several classes of compound present in different parts of E. coccinea such as monoterpene sesquiterpene alcohol aldehyde alkane alkene ketones fatty acids derivatives esters amines as well as norterpene. Most of the compounds found in E. coccinea are monoterpenes at 18 compounds followed by alcohols (14 compounds) alkanes and alkenes (12 compounds) sesquiterpenes (8 compounds) aldehydes (7 compounds) ketones fatty acid derivatives esters (4 compounds) and lastly amine and norterpene one compound each. However total terpenoids from all plant parts from both sites were less than 50 of total abundance. Only the rhizome part from site 2 showed the highest terpenoid abundance (43.34). Hence the identified compounds from the study could be expended for large-scale profiling to obtain higher yields of important constituents.

Abstract

Etlingera coccinea (Blume) S. Sakai Nagam is a member of Zingiberaceae family. It is commonly known as Tuhau in Sabah Malaysia and consumed as a local delicacy and used as a traditional remedy for stomachache food poisoning and gastric problems. The plant has been reported to have bioactive properties such as anticancer antioxidant and antibacterial. Due to the high demand for this bioactive compound in national and international markets chemical profiling of leaves stems and rhizomes from E. coccinea was carried out. Eight germplasms were collected from Trail 1 (Kg. Gensurai) and Trail 2 (Kg. Melangkap Noriou) and submitted to the hydrodistillation process to obtain the essential oil before analysing with GC-MS. From the result obtained a total of 85 compounds were found and 26 of these were terpenoid compounds. There are several classes of compound present in different parts of E. coccinea such as monoterpene sesquiterpene alcohol aldehyde alkane alkene ketones fatty acids derivatives esters amines as well as norterpene. Most of the compounds found in E. coccinea are monoterpenes at 18 compounds followed by alcohols (14 compounds) alkanes and alkenes (12 compounds) sesquiterpenes (8 compounds) aldehydes (7 compounds) ketones fatty acid derivatives esters (4 compounds) and lastly amine and norterpene one compound each. However total terpenoids from all plant parts from both sites were less than 50 of total abundance. Only the rhizome part from site 2 showed the highest terpenoid abundance (43.34). Hence the identified compounds from the study could be expended for large-scale profiling to obtain higher yields of important constituents.
