ABSTRACT: Standardization is a process involving various chemical analysis methods based on pharmacological data involving general physical and microbiological analyzes aimed at the safety of a natural extract. To obtain the correct result, the standardization step is preceded by method validation. Quercetin can be obtained from the leaves of soursop (Annona muricata Linn.), which use for treatment fever, diarrhea, anti-convulsive, antifungal, antimicrobial, gout, itching, and flu. Determination of quercetin in soursop leaf extract using TLC-Densitometry must be validated by testing selectivity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), linearity, precision, accuracy, and range. Densitometry scanning of the plates silica gel 60 F254 directly at 265 nm was used for analysis of quercetin. The result of selectivity test was 1.53 (>1.5) with mobile phase toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid (4: 3: 0.4; v/v/v), limit of detection (LOD = 0.018 µg), limit of quantification (LOQ = 0.060 µg), linearity y = 9387.3x – 767.39 (r = 0.9996 and Vxo = 1.9%), Coefficient of Variation (C.V.) of precision 1.906525% and the percent recovery of 96.6% ± 8.26%. The validated and development method was applied for standardization of quercetin in soursop leaf extract and resulted in the quercetin assay in soursop leaf extract was 1.288% ± 9.996% (w/w).

INTRODUCTION: Standardization is a process involving various chemical analysis methods based on pharmacological data involving general physical and microbiological analyzes aimed at the safety of a natural extract 1, 2. To have a good result, there must be a relationship between the quality of the raw materials, in the process materials and the final product; it becomes necessary to develop reliable, specific and sensitive quality control methods using a combination of classical and modern instrumental analytical methods.
Standardization is an important measure to ensure quality control of herbal medicine3. Standardization of herbal medicines is the process of determining the levels compared to the specific standards or characteristics, constant parameters, qualitative and quantitative values that bring true quality assurance, efficacy, safety, and reproducibility. Therefore standardization is a tool in the quality control process 4-7.
Standardization of drugs means the confirmation of identity and the determination of quality and purity 8. Standardization here emphasizes the determination of the compound content responsible for pharmacological effects, which is a process of ensuring good quality and standardization for medicines and herbal products 1, 9. To obtain the correct result, the standardization step is preceded by method validation.
Validation of analytical methods is the assessment of an analytical method based on laboratory experiments to demonstrate that the parameters of accuracy, precision, specificity/selectivity, detection limits (LOD), quantification limits (LOQ), linearity, and range meet requirements for users 10. In the quantitative analysis of components and substances of medicinal materials derived from biological samples such as those in plants must meet the parameters of accuracy, precision, specificity/ selectivity, detection limits (LOD), quantification limits (LOQ), linearity, and range 11. Quercetin is an active compound that can be obtained on soursop leaves (Annona muricata, Linn.) and widely used as an alternative treatment for fever, diarrhea, anti-seizure, anti-fungal, antiparasitic, antimicrobial, lumbago, gout, itching, anticancer, anticonvulsant, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and flu traditionally 12-20.
The determination of quercetin content can be determined by Spectrophotometric, HPLC, RP-HPLC method 21-25. The TLC-Densitometry method is the primary choice for the analysis of chemical components derived from plants because it has the flexibility to detect almost all compounds, even some inorganic compounds 26. Systematic approaches and well-designed methodologies for standardization of raw materials and herbal preparation formulations are now widely developed. Given the growing interest in herbal medicine, standard methods of herbal medicine are developed and used in different formulations 26.

Standardization on the determination of quercetin content in soursop leaf extract obtained 1.288 ± 0.1287% (w/w).
DISCUSSION: The choice of quercetin wave-length was obtained at 265 nm, another researcher reported 266 nm 21. This wavelength difference of one nm can be considered the same. Selectivity test aims to determine the phase of motion selected with the parameter of the degree of resolution.
In this study selected phase of motion was toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid (4: 3: 0.5), because the degree of resolutions was > 1.5 27-28. Other researchers used the mobile phase toluene: ethyl acetate: methanol (4: 0.5: 0.5) obtained a resolution value of 0.57 and 1.57 29. This use of mobile phase of toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid is similar 30 because the ratio is less precise, it is developed by changing the ratio of the mobile phase system to toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid (4: 3: 0.5). Different mobile phase systems will also differ the polarity, where the separation process depends on the polarity of the mobile phase system that affects the value of the degree of resolution.
The linearity test was performed by bottling the standard quercetin solution of 90 - 500 μg/ml by two μl (0.12-1.00 μg) on the silica gel 60 F254 TLC plate, eluted and then measured the area. From the calculation results obtained regression equation y = 9387.3x - 767.39 (r = 0.9996). It can be explained that there is a linear relationship between quercetin with bottle and area. The linearity of other researchers in the range of weight of quercetin 0.1-1.00 μg and generated regression equation y = 2.8437x + 202.43 (r = 0.9881) 31.
From the results of calculations in this study, obtained limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantities (LOQ) that is 0,018 μg and 0,060 μg. In research 31, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) for quercetin compounds were 0.05429 μg and 0.16451 μg. The difference of LOD/LOQ depends on the researcher's thoroughness so that if obtained by LOD/LOQ is small it will be obtained more sensitive observation. Precision in this study obtained Coefficient of Variation (C.V.) of 1.91% (C.V. Requirements <2%). Other research 31, obtained the C.V. of 6.53%. This difference occurs because of differences in the expertise of researchers, resulting in different precision 10.
Accuracy is done by addition method because the matrix of artificial nature sample cannot be made. The accuracy test is used to show the percentage of the proximity of the analysis results with the actual quercetin content 10. The accuracy of quercetin in this study obtained the result of 96.6 ± 8.26% (w/w), this result has met the requirements of the accuracy of bioanalysis 80-120% and precision (C.V.) <10% 32. The result of accuracy is not much different as reported 19, obtained an average percentage recovery of quercetin of 98.6%.
Application of TLC-Densitometry method for determination of quercetin content in soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata Linn.) was performed after the optimal optimum condition was obtained. From the result of the determination of quercetin content in soursop leaf extract 1.288 ± 9.996% (w/w). Reported 33, the content of the selected flavonoid as a quercetin compound in soursop leaf extract is (9.96 ± 1.53) mg/g. Differences in quercetin levels are caused by differences in sampling sites, genetic factors, growing environment, treatment during growth, and different harvest time 34-35.
CONCLUSION: Standardization of soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata Linn.) contains quercetin 1.288 ± 0.1287% (w/w).
RECOMMENDATION: The TLC-Densitometric method can be used to standardize soursop leaf extracts containing quercetin.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST: The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
