Abstract

Chengham (Scphyphora hydrophyllacea Gaertn. f., Rubiaceae) is a mangrove shrub or tree commonly in landward mangrove zones having some biological activities. All parts of S. hydrophyllacea have shown some components benefits to biological and pharmaceutical properties. This present study aimed to analyze the distribution and composition of polyisorenoid in senesnece leaves, fruits and branches of S. hydrophyllacea. Polyisoprenid patter was evaluated by two-dimensional thin layer chromatography (2D-TLC) approach. The total lipid (TL) content of five samples ranged from 5.7 mg/g in branches to 10.0 mg/g in the old leaves. Additionally, the percentage of polyprenol of senescence leaves slightly abundance compare to dolichol in the polyisoprenoid presence. Overall, polyprenol was found in higher content than dolichol in the yellow leaves. Results of this study found the type-II of S. hydrophyllacea fruits was in line with earlier reports on the plant fruits. The present study provided the occurrence of polyprenols and dolichols in S. hydrophyllacea tested organs.
