Hi, my name is Aaron, and I want to talk to you about a new article regarding, Phytochemical and Antioxidant Activity of Avocado Leaf Extract.

Antioxidants are a necessary nutrient in the body to prevent and deal with oxidative stress. The avocado leaf is claimed to contain natural antioxidants that can meet the needs of still limited antioxidants, especially for people with degenerative diseases. This study aims to identify and analyze phytochemical content and antioxidant strength in avocado leaf extract. Materials and methods: Research type is pure experience. Avocado leaf extract was prepared using 96% ethanol solvent The types of phytochemicals analyzed were flavonoids, saponins, polyphenols, tannins, alkaloids and steroids. Measurement of antioxidant activity using the DPPH method (1,1-di-phenyl-2 Becquerel hydrazel) on an avocado leaf extract and vitamin C (control group). Unreadable data analysis was t, unidirectional ANOVA test and linear regression test of significant value P . Results: The positive avocado plant extract contains flavonoids, saponins, tannins and stimulants. Avocado starch extract for antioxidant activity (DPPH absorption is strong with from 72.61 mg L-1 and vitamin C the positive control is also strong with IC50 (mg L-1) from 23.03. Abstract: The avocado leaf extract contains phytochemicals that contain powerful antioxidants that can be used to prevent and deal with oxidative stress.

Antioxidants are compounds that are able to inhibit the oxidation of other molecules 1. The body does not have an excessive antioxidant defense system, so if there is exposure to excessive free radicals, the body needs external antioxidants. Concerns about the side effects of synthetic antioxidants make natural antioxidants Preferred Alternative . In recent years, there has been growing interest in obtaining natural antioxidants . Studies show that phenolic compounds such as flavonoids have antioxidant activity from free radical maskers present in plants and fruit leaves that are commonly used as a traditional drug 







The World Health Organization indicates that traditional medicines coming from plants have been used by the community at about 80% as a personal healthcare effort 8 Use of medicinal plants includes prevention, treatment of disease and health care. Certain plant or plant extracts are believed to contain biologically active compounds and effective in treating diseases 8,9. Most natural antioxidants come from fruits and vegetables, spices, grains and spices such as ginseng, turmeric, ginkgo, rosemary, green tea, grapes, ginger, garlic and avocado (American Americana mill)



The avocado is only known for the fruits that people usually consume. Avocado leaf is clearly one of the natural ingredients that can be used as a traditional drug. This paper has been used experimentally as a diuretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, hypertension, blood sugar, diarrhea, sore throat and curative bleeding.. Avocado is one Of the groups of fruit plants that are nutritious as preservatives and antioxidants. Avocado meat can be used as an anti-hyperlipidemic, has antioxidant activity and reduces the risk of metabolic syndrome.



One part of the avocado plant that is potentially a natural anti-oxidant is the avocado leaf. Previous research has shown that avocado leaf has the potential as a natural antioxidant  and positively contains alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, imps and stimulants using methanol solution to dissolve and extract avocado leaves. However, the use of methanol in the extract is less safe compared to ethanol. This research aims to identify phytochemical content using 96% ethanol solution and antioxidant strength in avocado leaf extract using the DPPH method diphenyl-2 Becquerel hydrazel). Extracting an antioxidant compound into the leaf using ethanol would be safer for future experimental studies on animal or human settings.
