    Twenty-four traditional medicinal plants from Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia were tested for their antioxidant properties. The methanol extract of Sterculia quadrifida root showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity with an IC50 of 3.11 μg/mL, followed by Schleichera oleosa and Euphorbia hirta. Sterculia quadrifida also exhibited the strongest ABTS radical scavenging activity with an IC50 of 7.29 μg/mL, outperforming Eugenia jambolana and Lamea grandus. Sterculia quadrifida had high levels of flavonoids and phenols, suggesting it may be a promising source

    Abstract

    Twenty-four traditional medicinal plants collected from Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) were
    determined for antioxidant activity by using the free radical scavenging assays DPPH and ABTS. The
    present study revealed that the methanol extract of Sterculia quadrifida R. Br. root exhibited the highest
    DPPH radical scavenging activity with IC50 value of 3.11μg/mL, followed by Schleichera oleosa and
    Euphorbia hirta L. extracts with IC50 values of 10.05 and 10.09 μg/mL, respectively. Methanol extract of
    Sterculia quadrifida R. Br. also showed highest ABTS radical scavenging activity with IC50 value of 7.29
    μg/mL, followed by Eugenia jambolana Lam. and Lamea grandus with IC50 value of 9.15 and 12.29
    μg/mL, respectively. Sterculia quadrifida R. Br. extract showed high flavonoid and phenolic content with
    661.85 mg of GAE and 116.84 mg of QE per 100 g of extracts. Strong radical scavenging activity of these
    plants could be considered as a potential source of natural antioxidants.
