Ethanolic Noni (Morinda citrifolia L.) leaf extract dechlorophyllised using sedimentation process: Antioxidant, antibacterial properties and efficacy in extending the shelf‐life of striped catfish slices

SummaryAntioxidant and antimicrobial activities of ethanolic noni leaf extract (ENLE) without and with chlorophyll removal by sedimentation method were comparatively investigated. Total chlorophyll content was reduced by 82% in the top fraction (CR‐ENLE) collected after 24 h at 4 °C as compared to that of ENLE. Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were lower in the bottom fraction rich in chlorophyll (Chlo‐ENLE) than others (P &lt; 0.05). Based on the microbiological limit, the shelf‐life of striped catfish slices pre‐treated with 400 mg kg−1 C‐R‐ENLE was extended to 9 days as compared to the 3 days recorded for the control (without pre‐treatment). Slices treated with CR‐ENLE had lower lipid oxidation than those treated with ENLE during refrigerated storage (P &lt; 0.05). The sedimentation process was therefore a potential green method for producing ENLE having improved antioxidant and antimicrobial activities without green colour. It can be used as a natural additive for shelf‐life extension of fish slices.

Morinda citrifolia (Noni) leaf extract as corrosion inhibitor for steel-reinforced concrete in saline environment

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of Morinda citrifolia (Noni) leaf extract as corrosion inhibitor for steel-reinforced concrete exposed to saline environment. Chloride ingress in concrete structures exposed to saline environment that leads to corrosion of steel reinforcement is prevalent in many countries including the Philippines. The use of toxic organic and inorganic compounds as corrosion inhibitors is regulated in many countries due to detrimental effects on the environment. Thus, the development of green and eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor alternatives such as those derived from biodegradable plant materials is necessary. This study hypothesized that a sample concrete amended with Noni leaf extract (0.08, 0.17, 0.25, 0.33, and 0.42%) is better than ordinary Portland concrete cement as control (0%). Compression testing, colorimetric method, and steel reinforcement corrosion testing were used to measure the compressive strength, chloride penetration resistance, and corrosion rates, respectively. Results revealed that the application of > 0.33% Noni leaf extract improved the chloride penetration resistance of the concrete by 30–33% and reduced the corrosion rate on steel reinforcement by 57–59% without affecting the compressive strength of the concrete. Noni leaf extract concentration of 0.42% exhibited combined optimum compressive strength improvement, chloride penetration resistance, and corrosion inhibition. These results show that Noni leaf extract > 0.33% can protect the steel-reinforced concrete structure against corrosion in 3% sodium chloride test media under laboratory condition. This is the first report of using Noni leaf extract admixed in concrete for the protection of steel reinforcement against corrosion.
