The results of phytochemical screening showed that ethanol extract and water fraction of cardamom leaves contains phenol, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins, for ethyl acetate fraction contains phenol, flavonoids, and tannins, for hexane fraction the results were negative for all the compounds tested.
Antioxidant activity examination was determined using reagent DPPH using UV-Visible spectrophotometry and gallic acid as standard. Dried of cardamom leaves was extracted by maceration using 70 % ethanol, then followed by fractionation based on the level of polarity with hexane, ethyl acetate, and water solvents. This study aims to determine the antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract, hexane fraction, ethyl acetate fraction and water fraction of cardamom leaves ( Elettaria cardamomum (L.) Maton).
