Indonesia ABSTRACT In the present study antioxidant and antioxidant activity of some tropical fruits was evaluated. Antioxidants are compounds or molecules that can scavenging and prevent free radicals and reactive oxygen species that can caused a cell damage. Fruit was known as a source of antioxidant. South Kalimantan Indonesia
has a variety of fruit such as mentega
nangka
timun suri and kuranji. Study for evaluating the antioxidant levels and activity of those fruit were never been investigated. Thus
our study aim to measure the antioxidant levels and antioxidant activtity of those selected fruits. Ascorbic acid
lycopene
b -carotene levels and antioxidant activity of four selected tropical fruits was evaluated using spectrophotometer. The result of this studied suggest that the four selected tropical fruits is potential antioxidant because it contained ascorbic acid
b -carotene
lycopene and had effect of scavenging radical hydroxyl
antioxidant activity
ascorbic acid
