Parkia speciosa (petai) pods are rarely used and considered as waste despite their phenolic and flavonoid content. Phenolic and flavonoid content in plants are known to exhibit antioxidant activity. Antioxidants are known to potentially act agains radical and mediate the damage by structural stabilization. This research was conducted to analyze the antioxidant potential of petai pods using DPPH method. Analysis showed the IC50 of petai pods ethanolic extract was 75.72 ppm, which indicate strong acting antioxidant. Standardization of extracts were determined to manage the quality of extract, including the analysis of density, water content, ash values, and quantification of total phenolic and flavonoid content. Research outcome indicate the extract retain its quality during storage and use which confrmed to standardization requirements of water content and ash values. Total phenolics and flavonoid obtained were 272.45 mg/gGAE and 243.2029 mg/gQE respectively. Based from this research, petai pods ethanolic extract present strong antioxidant activity which was contributed by high existing content of flavonoid and phenolic compounds.

This research aims to know antioxidant activity, total phenolic, nutrient, and screening phytochemistry compounds of S. hystrix dry powder. Water extract from the dried sample of brown algae (S. hystrix) was prepared and examined for its phenolic compounds. The amount of total phenolic compounds in water extract was about 11.43 g Gallic Acid Equivalent (GAE)/100 g of dry basis sample, as measured by using Folin-Ciocalteu method. The antioxidant activity (Radical Scavenging Activity/RSA) of BHT as a standard was high about 96% inhibition of radical DPPH with 1 mg dry sample/ml solvent. The IC50 of the BHT was 0.227 ± 0.001 mg of dry sample/ ml solvent. While the radical activity (RSA) of S. hystrix dry powder was about 65.28% at 1 mg dry sample/ml solvent. The IC50 of S. hystrix dry powder was 0.616 ± 0.005 mg of dry sample/ml solvent. Nutrient contents and bioactive compounds of dry powder S. hystrix were balanced to support antioxidant activity of the sample. The results suggest that this alga is a potential source of natural antioxidant.

Brown seaweed Sargassum sp. is known to contain bioactive compounds needed for human. Seaweedcan be brewed into antioxidant drinks. The purpose of this study was to determine antioxidant activity andsensory properties of Sargassum sp. with variations in the duration of blanching 1, 3, and 5 minutes. Thetea was analysed for their water content, total phenols, antioxidant activity and sensory tests. The highestantioxidant activity was obtained in blanching treatment for 5 minutes with phenol content of 2.22 mg GAE/g. However, the hedonic test suggested 3 minutes blanching treatment was the best treatment to obtain theseaweed tea.

The antioxidant activity and polysaccharide composition of seaweed is influenced by species (red, green and brown seaweed), geographical conditions, extraction methods, solvents, temperature and the length of time of extraction. The purpose of this study was to known the total polysaccharide and antioxidant activity in red, green and brown seaweed extracts from Jangkar Situbondo beach. Method. The study was conducted on red, green and brown seaweed extracted with ethanol and water to determine total polysaccharides. Antioxidant analysis uses the method 2,2-diphenyl1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Total polysaccharide and antioxidant activity were observed statistically using two-way ANOVA. The results of this study show that the polysaccharide content in seaweed water extract was significantly higher than ethanol extract, especially in brown seaweed. Seaweed water extracts showed higher antioxidant activity than ethanol extracts. The antioxidant activity of brown seaweed was significantly higher than that of green and red seaweed. Conclusion. Seaweeds have high antioxidant activity in water extracts. Brown seaweed water extract contains high polysaccharides than green and red seaweed. Antioxidant activity in brown seaweed is also higher than in green and red seaweed.

Pedada fruit (Sonneratia caseolaris) is one of the mangrove varieties that has a high nutritional content and has the potential as an antioxidant. In general, pedada is still underutilized by the community because it tastes sour and feels tight when consumed directly. One of the efforts in utilizing the pedada fruit is processing it into jelly candy. The purpose of this study was to determine the chemical characteristics of pedada jelly candy with the addition of carrageenan. This research is an experimental design using a quantitative descriptive approach with P2K2(100 ml  of pedada fruit juice and 20 gr carrageenan) and P0K2 contol samples (without pedada fruit juice and 20 gr of carrageenan). To find out the chemical characteristics were tested Carbohydrate, protein, fat, fiber, water content, ash content, vitamin C and Antioxidant activity. This research was conducted in May-August 2018. Jelly candy making was carried out at the STIKes Baiturrahim Jambi Nutrition and Food Laboratory, Chemical characteristics were tested by proximate analysis (Carbohydrate, protein, fat, fiber, water content, ash content), iodimetry (vitamin c) method and DPPH (Antioxidant activity) method. The best treatment in making Pedada jelly candy which is very preferred, namely P2K2 (100 ml pedada fruit juice and 20 gr carrageenan) with a carbohydrates (69.83%), protein (5.66%), fat (9.89%), water content (39.26%), ash content (9.67%), fiber (0.67%), vitamin C (14.08%) and antioxidant activity (67.34%).

This study aims to find the treatment of diabetes using natural materials by exploring plants in the province of East Nusa Tenggara. his research was conducted out by extracting the Strychnos nitida G.Don stem using a method of maceration by ethanol 70%. Ethanol extract was then fractionated using n-hexane and ethyl acetate. Simplicia from maceration and fractionation results were then tested for antioxidant activity, α-glucosidase inhibition activity and identification of active compounds. The results showed that ethyl acetate fraction had the lowest IC50 value of 86.83 μg / ml. Results of the α-glucosidase activity test showed that ethyl acetate fraction and n-heksan fraction at 900 ppm had the highest percentage of inhibition of 34.23% and 33.89%. Identification using LCMS/MS method showed that ethyl acetate fraction consist of Benzenemethamine, N, N-dioctyl- as an antioxidantcompound and compound 24-methyl-5-cholestone-hexol as an antidiabetic compound. From the results of this study, we concluded that the extract of kayu ular Strychnos nitida G.Don stem has inhibition activity toward α-glucosidase enzyme.

Free radicals and reactive species are widely believed to contribute to the development of several diseases by causing oxidative stress and eventually oxidative. Vernonia amygdalina (Astereacea) is a small shrub or tree between 1 and 5m high growing throughout tropical Africa. Plants are generally known as bitter leaves is well cultivated and is a general market for merchandise in several countries. The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of hexane fraction from ethanol extract od Frican leaves (Vernonia amygdalina Del.). The method used in this study was the DPPH (1,1-Diphenil-2-Picrylhydrazyl) method. The result of phytochemical screening showed that ethanolic extract of African leaves contained a composition of secondary metabolites of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, steroids/triterpenoids and saponins. The antioxidant activity of the extract of n-hexane fraction was classified as very weak with an IC50 value of 317.98 ppm.
