Abstract

Leaves mareme (Glochidion arborescens Blume) has a very strong antioxidant activity. One potential secondary metabolites as antioxidants are flavonoids. This study aims to determine the effect of the extraction method on total flavonoid levels of mareme leaf extract. Total flavonoid content was determined using UV-Vis spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 430 nm with aluminum chloride reagent uses comparators quercetin so that the results ware calculated as quercetin equivalents (QE). From the research results can be seen ethyl acetate extract resulted in the highest total flavonoid content of 40.3350 mg QE / g using reflux extraction method. Results of analysis using SPSS showed no significant differences in the levels of total flavonoids using extraction methods and there ware significant differences in the levels of total flavonoids of using solvents with increasing polarity.
