Abstract

Termiticidal activity of n-hexane extract of Tetracera indica leaves against Coptotermes curvighnatus Holmgren has conducted research using the no-choice test method, and determination of chemical compounds using GC-MS. The results of the termiticidal activity test showed that the percentage of termite mortality increased with increasing extract concentration. The results of the chemical compounds analysis using GC-MS showed 34 peaks in the n-hexane extract of T. indica. A total of 29 peaks were successfully identified as tentative compounds based on the similarity of their mass spectra with the NIST database. The main compounds of the n-hexane extract of T. indica are Oelic acid (40.77%) and Cis-9-octadecenal (33.78%). The presence of these peaks is suspected to be active against anti-termite activity. The presence of other compounds such as triterpenoids/steroids based on phytochemical screening may also contribute to its activity.
