Antioxidant potential of underutilized parts of salam (Syzygium polyanthum) using DPPH and CUPRAC methods

Antioxidants can combat free radicals that can cause degenerative diseases. Natural antioxidant agents can be found in salam (Syzygium polyanthum). Thus, the purpose of this study is to assess the salam's underutilized roots and twigs as a natural antioxidant source. The study also aims to identify and determine the flavonoid compound levels in the selected extract. Salam's antioxidant properties were demonstrated by the detection of flavonoids and phenolic substances by phytochemical sc
