Antioxidant properties of teak leaves collected from Cepu, Central Java, Indonesia which was extracted using Microwave Assisted Extraction (MAE) and soxhlet extraction was identified. The antioxidant activity was measured based on total phenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and H2O2 scavenging activity. MAE significantly produced higher antioxidant properties in shorter time compared to soxhlet extraction, however, the antioxidant properties of teak leaves collected from Cepu, was not significantly different from that collected from Blitar and Madiun, East Java. Different types of soil seem not affect the antioxidant properties of teak. © 2016, Sphinx Knowledge House. All rights reserved.
