Abstract:
Abstract Artabotrys suaveolens is one of the species from Artabotrys genus, one of the largest genus from Annonaceae family. This plant has been used traditionally to treat several diseases and also as emmenagogue. This research was aimed to explore the potency of Artabotrys suaveolens`s leaf and stem bark extracts as α-glucosidase inhibitor using in vitro and molecular docking techniques. It was found that IC50 of α-glucosidase inhibition activity of leaf extract was 48.18±0.16 ppm while the one of stem bark extract was 44.99±0.35 ppm. Besides that, it was also found that IC50 of DPPH free ra
