Telah dilakukan pemeriksaan fitokirnia dari sari buah tigamacam pare (riomordica charantia L. Cucurbitaceae).Hasil pemeriksaan pendahuluan menunjukkan ketiga macam sa.ri buah tersebut masing—masing mengandung alkaloida, glikosida,sterol, saponin, gula dan resin.Dari pemeniksaan secara kromatografi lapisan tipis dida -patkan noda sterol dari masing—masing sampel yang denganpengamatan secara visual ternyata'kadar tertinggi terdapatpada sampel II (pare cina). Setelah dilakukan percobaansecara spektrof'otometni cahaya tampak terhadap noda steroltersebut didapatkan serapan maksimum pada due panjang ge -lombang yaitu 621 nmdan 656 nm.Dari pemeniksaan alkaloida secara kromatografi lapisan ti—pis ketiga sampel masing—masing memberikan tiga noda yangbereaksi 'positif terhadap pereaksi yang digunakan.

The screening phytochemistry from three kinds of juice pare

(f1omordica charantia L. - Cucurbitaceae)has been done.

This preliminary study shows the presence of alkaloids,

glycoside, steroid, saponin, sugar and resins.

From thin layer chromatography test there exist a steroidspot

in each sample and with the visual observation it can

be seen that sample II (pare cina) gives the higher concen

tration. After the spectral measurements on the steroid -

spot it is found the absorption maximum at about, 621 nm

and 656 nm.

The alkaloid's experiment by thin layer chromatography

using three samples, each sample gives three spots with

positive reaction against the reagents spray which are used.
