| Resumo: | Mango seeds contain high content of antioxidants, phenolic and flavonoid. The usage of mangoes can convert the waste into a bountiful harvest. The aim of this study was to analyze the phytochemicals properties in Perlis SunShine mango. In addition, the objective of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of the extract of Perlis SunShine mango. Perlis SunShine mango is dried and crushed before they are mixed with a variety of organic solvents (methanol, ethanol, acetone and distilled water). After that, the Perlis SunShine mango seed extract was analyzed and tested to determine the phytochemicals, antioxidant activity, total flavonoids and phenolic content. After the phytochemical analysis is conducted, the results show methanol gave the highest of phytochemical constituent. Next, by using Ultra-Violet Spectrophotometer, the antioxidant activity, total phenolic and flavonoid content are determined. It is found that the methanol gives the highest yield for antioxidant activity and total flavonoid content and total phenolic content. But in order to be commercial in the food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or cosmetic industries, the Perlis SunShine mango seed that extracted with distilled water is choosen since it is preferable, chemical-free and safe. |
