Eight samples were analyzed for their measuring DPPH radical scavenging activity, phosphomolybdenum FRAP, well total phenolic flavonoid contents. Good linearity general finding quantitative analysis, average correlation coefficient 0.999 standards. highest content 8.66 ± 0.11 mgQE/g, 22.66 0.15 mgGAE/g. With regard all demonstrated weak while FRAP at 48.58 0.45 mgQE/g extract 226.98 0.19 extract, respectively. These results indicated that claimed could prepared sources, irrespective being or without diabetes treatment.
