Potential of Maranta arundinacea residues for recycling: Analysis of total phenolic, flavonoid, and tannin contents

Abstract. Ieamkheng S, Santibenchakul Sooksawat N. 2022. Potential of Maranta arundinacea residues for recycling: Analysis total phenolic, flavonoid, and tannin contents. Biodiversitas 23: 1204-1210. The potential L. was evaluated their nutrient composition as organic fertilizer the presence contents phytochemical resources. This arrowroot collected from seven different locations planted under conditions. leaves contain 1.28% nitrogen (total N) 1.71% potassium K) that might be used an component in fertilizer. stems 3.25% moisture a C/N ratio 81.45 which serve good mulch. flavonoid M. differed plant parts (leaves, stem, rhizome residue), age (6, 9, 12 months), sampling (Th-TK, Th-R, Th-SyK, Th-Kpc, Th-Chan, Th-Sk, Kh-B). high phenolic content obtained Th-Kpc at 6-month-old (0.268 mg GAE)/g DW). Kh-B residue 9-month-old (0.379 QE)/g Th-Chan (4.746 tannin/g study indicated were abundant source tannin; to food medicinal industries. Leaves stem useful farming.
