Uji Fitokimia Dan Aktivitas Antioksidan Biji Dari Beberapa Jenis Mangga
ABSTRACT
Mango is one type of fruit that is most popular with the public. The use of mangoes is only for the flesh for consumption, while the skin and seeds are discarded, causing organic waste in the environment. This study aims to determine the content of secondary metabolites and antioxidant activity in the seeds mango of arum manis (Mangifera indica Linn.), kweni (Mangifera odorata Griff.) and bacang (Mangifera foetida Lour.). Mango seeds extract was made by maceration method using 70% methanol solvent. The phytochemical test was carried out qualitatively and the antioxidant activity test was carried out using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrihidrazyl) method. The results of the phytochemical tests showed that the methanol extracts from the seeds mango of arum manis, kweni and bacang both contain the same secondary metabolites namely alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, tannins and saponins. Bacang mango seeds have a higher content of secondary metabolites compared to arum manis and kweni. Antioxidant activity test showed that the methanol extract of arum manis, kweni and bacang mango seeds had an IC value below 50 which was classified as very strong antioxidant activity. Of the three samples, arum manis mango seed extract had the strongest antioxidant activity (2.84 μg/mL) compared to bacang (2.85 μg/mL) and kweni (3.22 μg/mL).
