Bidara (Ziziphus spina-christi L.) is a tropical tree originating from Sudan in which it is commonly known as "Nebeq" in Saudi Arabia. It is of a bioactive compound - a flavonoid compound, which is the potential to be used as an antioxidant. It is capable of inhibiting any cell damages caused by free radicals. This study aimed to measure the activities of the free radicals in methanol extracts of Z. spina-christi leaves. The process of extracting the Z. spina-christi leaves was carried out through the maceration method using methanol as a solvent. The qualitative analysis of chemical compounds with certain eluents using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was purposely to determine the groups of active compounds in extracts. The measurement of antioxidant activities was carried out using the 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl Hidrazyl (DPPH) immersion method in which absorption was measured at a maximum wavelength of 513 nm. The results showed that the methanol extract of Z. spina-christi leaves had a very weak antioxidant activity with the IC50 value of 466.804 �g/ml. The results of the bioautographic profile showed the presence of flavonoid compounds, phenols, saponins, and tannins.

Antioxidants are substances that can slow down the oxidation process of free radicals. Limpasu plant (Baccaurea lanceolata (Miq) Muell. Arg), an indigenous plant of Borneo, is a natural antioxidant source. The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of the limpasu pericarpium extract. The extraction of the limpasu pericarpium was done by maceration method using solvents with increasing polarity ranging from n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Antioxidant activities of the three extracts were measured by the DPPH and FRAP methods. The IC50 values of n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol extracts, as well as quercetin using the DPPH method were 517,45 µg/mL, 530,64 µg/mL, 10,63 µg/mL and 6,83 µg/mL, respectively. Meanwhile, the IC50 values obtained from FRAP method were 198,96 µg/mL, 190,07 µg/mL, 661,36 µg/mL, and 7,09 µg/mL, respectively. The results revealed that the methanol extract is more potent than other extracts tested for antioxidant activity.

Degenerative diseases triggered by antioxidants in the body are unable to neutralize the increased concentration of free radicals that can cause cell damage, so to destroy free radicals it is necessary to have antioxidants from outside the body. Grapefruit peel (Citrus Maxima Merr) is one plant that is known to have a lot of secondary metabolite content however it is not fully utilized. To analyze the content of chemical compounds and the antioxidant effect of n-hexane extract of Grapefruit peel (Citrus Maxima Merr.). Identification of chemical compounds was carried out by phytochemical screening and confirmed by the analysis of the extract thin layer chromatography profile, whereas the antioxidant activity test was carried out using the radical capture method of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) with Trolox as a comparison. The results of the identification of Grapefruit peel (Citrus Maxima Merr) extracts is containing secondary metabolites in the form of flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, triterpenoids/steroids, and tannins. The results of antioxidant activity test extracts of grapefruit peel(Citrus Maxima Merr) and Trolox each showed values that: IC50 111.69 ppm and 12.143 ppm. From the results of this test, the extract of grapefruit peel (Citrus Maxima Merr) has moderate antioxidant activity when compared to Trolox.

Free radicals are molecules that lose electrons in their outer orbitals so that the number of electrons becomes odd and unstable. Free radicals can damage various macromolecule cells including proteins, carbohydrates, fats. Antioxidants are compounds that can donate one or more electrons to free radicals. Avocado leaves contain high bioactive components that can be used as a source of natural antioxidants. Avocado leaves that have been dried, mashed and then shifted with methanol. The extracts were tested by phytochemical screening, including flavonpoid, phenolic, tannin and antioxidant activity using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhidrazyl) method. This method is based on the reduction of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) against free radicals which causes a change from purple to yellow 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) (DPPH). From the research, the IC50 values ​​in avocado leaves were 118.8056 µg / mL and 7,276 µg / mL on ascorbic acid as a positive control. From the IC50 value obtained, it is known that the methanol extract of avocado leaves has strong antioxidant activity to fight free radicals.

A study has been conducted on the isolation and identification of secondary metabolite compounds from methorol extract of kelor leaf (Moringa oleifera Lamk.). This study aims to isolate and identify secondary metabolite compounds from leaf kelur methanol extract. Moringa leaf was macerated with methanol and obtained a yield of 16.7% methanol extract. The extract of methanol separated by column chromatography yielded 272 fractions. The fraction was purified and analyzed by thin layer chromatography using eluent n-hexane: ethyl acetate (7: 3) and obtained stain spots with Rf (0.61) and (0.47). Phytochemical results of positive isolates on flavonoids test. The results of identification using UV-Vis spectrophotometry and infrared spectrophotometry is a flavonoid compound. The identification using UV-Vis spectrophotometry yields I absorbing bands at 250 nm wavelength. The absorption at 250 nm wavelength is suspected because of the non-bonding electron transition to the σ anti-bonding orbital (n → σ *) by an unconjugated ausochrome suspected to be a hydroxyl functional (OH) group. Identification using infrared (IR) spectrophotometry showed the presence of a bound OH function group, C = O, C = C aromatic, C-H aliphatic, C -O alcohol and = C-H aromatic.

Abstract. Srimariana ES, Apituley DAN. 2019. Antioxidant activity of extracted green algae silpau (Dyctyosphaeria versluysii). Nusantara Bioscience 11: 153-156. Silpau (Dictyosphaeria versluysii) is a green algae that is widely available in Southwest Moluccas regency, living on coral reefs and not classified as seasonal plants. Silpau has long been used by local people, generally in the form of processed vegetables or colo-colo (traditional food). Except for its nutritional value, comprehensive information about silpau still unknown. Therefore, this study was carried out to determine its potential as an antioxidant. The phytochemical content of silpau was analyzed according to the standard method. The antioxidant activity of green algae silpau extract was carried out by reducing DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radicals. Phytochemical test of silpau revealed that silpau contain terpenoid compounds. The result of the study showed that the IC50 value of methanol extract of silpau was 547.97 ppm, indicated that silpau methanol extract categorized as a weak antioxidant.

These study aimed to determine antioxidant activity, total phenolic compound and pigment content of tropical S. platensis, G. arcuata and U. lactuca. S. platensis was extracted with aquadest (SPA), while G. arcuata and U. lactuca were extracted with n-hexane (GAH and ULH), ethyl-acetate (GAE and ULE) and methanol (GAM and ULM). The IC50 value was used to calculate the ability of extract to inhibit free radicals using DPPH (515 nm). The TPC was determined using Folin-Ciocalteu (725 nm). Phycocyanin (620 nm), phycoerythrin (652 nm), allophycocyanin (562 nm), carotenoid (470 nm) and chlorophyll (645 nm and 662 nm) were measured based on color intensity. The results indicated that SPA was able to inhibit free radicals (46.12±2.03%), contains TPC (26.64±0.16 mg/GAE samples) and dominated by phycocyanin pigments (0.301±0.09 mg/g). G. arcuata extracted with ethyl-acetate (GAE) showed the best value with IC50 136.267±0.28 ppm, TPC 303.507±1.155 mg/GAE samples, carotenoid 0.528 ±0.009 μmol/g and chlorophyll a 2.845 ±0.069 mg/g. The U. lactuca extracted with ethyl-acetate also showed the best value with IC50 462.560±2.44 ppm, TPC 210.129±1.387 mg/GAE samples, carotenoid 0.442 ±0.046 μmol/g and chlorophyll a 9.216 ±0.103 mg/g.
