Abstract

The search for flavonoids from plants is still ongoing because currently the use of plant parts in medicine is still widely used by the community. Flavonoids contained in plants can be raw materials or an initial source for modern medicine. Flavonoids are found in almost all parts of plants, such as leaves, flowers, fruit, stems, and roots, and are reported to have antioxidant properties that can help eliminate reactive oxygen species, because they are effective as antivirals, anti-inflammatory and anticancer agents. This research aimed to determine the total flavonoid content of Mahang (Macaranga triloba (thumb.) Mull Arg.) leaves extract. The total flavonoid content of the Mahang leaves extract was investigated using in vitro assays. Quercetin was used as a standard. The results of the determination of total flavonoid content are 0.603 ppm.
