Antioxidant Activity of Extract Combination From Averrhoa bilimbi L. Leaves and Stingless Bee Honey



Description:
Averrhoa bilimbi L. leaves and stingless bee honey contains phenolic compounds that can act as antioxidants. This study aims to find out the antioxidant activity of extract combination from Averrhoa bilimbi L. leaves and stingless bee honey (Trigona spp.). This study uses the maceration method to obtain extracts and uses the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrilhydrazyl) method to see the antioxidant activity of the extract combination from Averrhoa bilimbi L. leaves and stingless bee honey (Trigona spp.). Then the extract combination of kelulut honey bee (Trigona spp.) and Averrhoa bilimbi L. leaves was measured for its antioxidant activity using UV-VIS spectrophotometry. The results showed the greatest IC50 of combination extract was 2:1 ratio Averrhoa bilimbi L. leaves extract and stingless bee honey was 90.36 ppm included classified as strong antioxidants activity. This activity was influenced by the synergistic effect between the combination of secondary metabolites contained.
