AE (antiradical efficiency) was a parameter more exactly used to measure the antioxidant power than EC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;\/sub&gt;(efficient concentration to reduce 50% of DPPH concentration). This parameter was determined by EC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;\/sub&gt; and TEC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;\/sub&gt; (the time needed to reach the steady state).&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;\/strong&gt;PE and its fraction had free radical-scavenging activity compared with control antioxidant. Based on EC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;\/sub&gt;, the orders of ability to scavenging DPPH radicals was determined as the EAF~ GE&amp;gt;PE ~ ATS ~ RE ~ AF&amp;gt;BHT ~ BF. The results were not exactly because BHT and ATS were potentially as a synthetic antioxidant. Therefore AE parameter was used to determine scavenging activity. The classification order of scavenging activity based on AE was BHT&amp;gt;GE ~ ATS&amp;gt;EAF&amp;gt;RE~ BF~ PE~ AF.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;\/strong&gt;The PE and its fractions had DPPH free radical scavenging activity. Based on EC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;\/sub&gt; and AE parameters, the EAF showed the strongest DPPH free radical scavenging activity compared with PE and the other fractions.&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOI: 10.22159\/ijpps.2016v8i9.11410 Authors: Paini Sri Widyawati Abstract: &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;\/strong&gt;This study was conducted to determine the DPPH free radical scavenging activity of pluchea extract (PE) and its fraction (ethyl acetate (EAF), n-butanol (BF) and aqueous (AF)) and comparing with the its activity of control antioxidant, such as green tea (GE) and rosemary extracts (RE), \u03b1-tocopherol succinate [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-914","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mos200"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/914","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=914"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/914\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=914"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=914"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citations.tools.bio-logic.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=914"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
