The calculated of potential level rhizome based on the total phenolic compound and antioxidant activity.The phenolic compound was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteau method, antioxidant activity was determined by the DPPH (1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method expressed in IC50. Potential level was calculated by comparing the value of total phenolic compound and antioxidant activity. The results showed that red ginger ( Zingiber officinale var Rubrum) had the highest a phenolic and flavonoid content.
