Main Article Content

Abstract

Enhydra fluctuans Lour. is widely used in folk medicine, but there is still little research found on its biological effects. In this paper, the in vitro antioxidant activity with 40% ethanol extract from Enhydra fluctuans Lour. is determined by DPPH and MDA assay. The IC50 values are 1706.40 mg/ml and 1081.09 mg/ml, respectively. The results show that Enhydra fluctuans Lour. is the potential to be used as an antioxidant and hepatoprotective bioactive-guided medicine.
