Abstract
Mulberry is commonly used for silkworm rearing due to the presence of chemo-factors such as morin and sitosterol in the leaves. Mulberries are important in containing free radicals and pro- oxidants produced in the body as a result of metabolism and phagocytosis. Pharmacological uses of mulberry include phytochemical composition, antioxidant and medicinal properties. The pharmacological activity of mulberry plants can be predicted by the identification of phytochemicals. Although various modern techniques are used to determine phytochemicals, qualitative tests are still used for preliminary phytochemical screening of plants. Alkaloids, carbohydrates, proteins, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, saponins, tannins, quinones, anthraquinones, and other phytochemicals. The purpose of this research was to determine the antioxidant activity of the mulberry plant's fruits, stems, and leaves. The presence of antioxidant properties in the extract of mulberry plant was confirmed using the DPPH method.
