From data assay against DPPH obtained that the
extract of ethyl acetate has the highest IC
50
value
8,732 ± 0204 ppm. Based on this, the aerial part
extract of L. microphyllum has an activity of an
antioxidant with an IC
50
value of less than 200 ppm.
4 CONCLUSIONS
Ethyl acetate fraction of aerial parts L. microphyllum
has the highest antioxidant activity against DPPH
with an IC
50
value of 8,732 ± 0,204 ppm.
