Abstract

Selada air (Nastrium officinale R.Br) is a plant that grows in the highlands. Watercress is widely consumed by people as a vegetable. This study aimed to examine the antioxidant activity of watercress extract by using DPPH method. The extraction used the reflux method with n-hexane, ethyl acetate and 70% ethanol solvent. The result of antioxidant activity test obtained IC50 values of n-Hexane extract, ethyl acetate, 70% ethanol was 113.49 ppm, 110.82 ppm, 97.73 ppm. The extract which had the most powerful antioxidant activity was found in 70% ethanol extract
