The present study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro antioxidant activity of Ficus carica, commonly known as fig. Methanol and ethanol extracts of F. carica leaves were subjected to 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity assay where ascorbic acid being positive control had an IC50 value of 3.98±0.26 while methanol and ethanol fractions showed an IC50 of 101.76±1.12 and 93.12±1.17 respectively exhibiting their high antioxidant potential. DPPH assay was also performed on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) elutions. Most active antioxidant components in ethanol extract were eluted between 17–18 min, and those in methanol were eluted over 14–15 min and upon ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometery (Orbitrap Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry) were identified to be 13-Docosenamide, (Z)- for ethanol and ficusin for methanol fraction. Thus, it is concluded that these two components are most probable determinants of antioxidant potential of F. carica leaf extracts. © 2021 Friends Science Publishers

<div class="WordSection1"><p align="center"><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Tin (<em>Ficus carica</em>) merupakan tanaman yang memiliki aktivitas antioksidan sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai alternatif pengobatan penyakit degeneratif salah satunya yaitu hiperurisemia. Aktivitas antioksidan tersebut dapat ditingkatkan melalui proses fermentasi. Hasil dari proses fermentasi tersebut berupa teh asam. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui aktivitas antihiperurisemia teh asam daun tin pada tikus putih (<em>Rattus norvegicus</em>). Pengujian dilakukan terhadap 5 kelompok kontrol negatif (Pakan tinggi purin 10,8 ml/kgBB), kontrol positif (Allopurinol 9 ml/kgBB), teh asam daun tin dosis 20, 25 dan 30 ml/kgBB. Pemberian sediaan uji setiap hari selama 8 hari. Pengukuran kadar asam urat dengan menggunakan metode fotometrik enzimatis. Pengambilan sampel darah melalui vena jantung pada hari ke 22. Hasil pengukuran kadar asam urat dengan pemberian teh asam daun tin dengan dosis 30 ml/kgBB menunjukkan kadar asam urat paling rendah dibandingkan dengan kontrol positif.

The results the best dose of sour tea of Fig in lowering the level of uric acid in male rat (Rattus norvegicus) was 6 ml/200grBW/day (3,87 mg/dl) compared to the positive controls which had the average level of 4,2 mg/dl. In addition, the result of One Way ANOVA demonstrated the significant difference in the probability value of 0,05.

Aim: This study aims to analyse and characterise the leaf powder of Ficus carica, Ficus exasperata, and Ficus thonningii. Methodology: Ficus carica, Ficus exasperata, and Ficus thonningii leaf powder were analysed quantitatively for proximate, phytochemicals, minerals, and antioxidant activity. Results: The ash, crude protein, and nitrogen free extract concentration were significantly (P<0.05) higher in Ficus carica leaf powder than the rest Ficus species under study. However, the crude fiber and crude fat concentrations were higher (P<0.05) in Ficus thonningii and Ficus exasperata leaf powder, respectively. The concentration of tannins, flavonoids, phenols, and saponins was higher (P<0.05) in Ficus exasperata than other Ficus species under study. However, the concentration of the alkaloids was higher (P<0.05) in Ficus carica leaf powder than Ficus exasperata and Ficus thonningii leaf powder. The Zn and P were higher (P<0.05) in Ficus carica than the rest F. species under study. The Fe contents of F. carica and F. exasperata leaf powders were higher (P<0.05) than F. thonningii leaf powder. The Ca contents of F. carica leaf powder and F. thonningii leaf powder were higher (P>0.05) than F. exasperata leaf powder. The 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate value was higher (P<0.05) in Fiscus exasperata leaf powder than F. carica and F. thonningii. However, the value of vitamin c was higher (P<0.05) in Ficus carica, compared to the rest F. species. Conclusion: This study reveals that the leaf powder of F. carica, F. exasperata, and F. thonningii contains a significant number of minerals and phytochemicals with high antioxidant activity and could be employed as a natural feed supplement in animal nutrition.
