Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare the composition of oleoresin nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt) made directly by maceration and distillation combined - maceration. nutmeg oleoresin  yield  amounted to  15.17  (%  db)  obtained  by direct  maceration  and  oleoresin extraction method combined distillation and maceration obtained yield of 20.08 (% db). While the essential oil yield itself from the water-steam distillation of the results obtained at 6.61 (% db). Ethanol extract of oleoresin analysis using GCMS method identified a total of 39 kinds of compounds with the composition of major components is methyleugenol (33.40%), myristicine (10.90%), cis-methyl isoeugenol (9.09%), elemicin (8:33%), and isocoumarin (5.61 %). For nutmeg essential oil contained 31 components of the compound, where the components are located in large numbers was sabinene (34.97%), ?-phellandrene (19.9%), methyleugenol (7:55%), myristicine (5:29%) and elimicine (3:21 %). As for the essential oil is mixed with the oleoresin from the pulp remaining distillation contained 58 components that make up the compound of the oleoresin with a mixture of main components, namely: sabinene (12:38%) myristicine (10.88%), elemicin (8.93%), isocoumarin 6:26 (%), myristic acid (5.96%), and ?-pinene (4.73%).
