Abstract

This research studied the total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activity, and antibacterial effects in the oral cavity of extracts from mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana L.). It was found that the extract from mangosteen peel had higher total phenolic and total flavonoid content compared to standard mangosteen extracts. The antioxidant activity tested using the DPPH radical scavenging assay showed that the mangosteen peel extract had better antioxidant potential than the standard extract. Additionally, the antibacterial activity in the oral cavity of the mangosteen peel extract, tested using the disc diffusion assay, showed an average inhibition zone diameter of approximately 9.27 mm. These results indicate that the mangosteen peel extract has potential for further development and serves as an alternative for use as an antibacterial agent in the oral cavity.
