Abstract

Mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana) is known for its high concentration of bioactive compounds, particularly flavonoids, which possess various health benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. This study aims to identify and quantify the flavonoid content extracted from mangosteen peels sourced from Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. Using ethanol as a solvent, the extraction process was carried out through maceration, followed by qualitative and quantitative analysis using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). The FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of key functional groups associated with flavonoids, including hydroxyl (-OH), ether (C-O), and aromatic C=C groups. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant flavonoid content. Additionally, the extract showed potential antibacterial properties against Aeromonas hydrophila, suggesting its application as a natural antimicrobial agent.
