VALIDASI METODA PENENTUAN ANTIOKSIDAN TOTAL (DIHITUNG SEBAGAI ASAM SITRAT) DALAM SAMPEL JERUK SECARA SPEKTOFOTOMETRI DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN OKSIDATOR FeCl3 DAN PENGOMPLEKS ORTO-FENANTROLIN

ABSTRACT: Antioxidant  is  a  compound  that  can  be  used  to  obstruct  species  oxygen  reactive,  species nitrogen, and other free radicals so it can be used degenerative illnesses inhibition. Citric acid is a natural antioxidant that can be found in some  kind of oranges. There are some methode that usually used to determination the antioxidant, such as CUPRAC, DPPH, and FRAP. Objective of this research is studied about alternative method to determine total antioxidant that is counted as  citric  acid  by  using  FeCl3  as  an  oxidator  and  o-phenantroline  as  a  complexant  reagent.  In studied  of  appropriateness  of  this  method,  validation  has  been  done  with  parameter  linearity, LoD, LoQ, SDR, and recovery with samples orange, kaffir lime, and lime. Base on the research, the regression equation is Y = 0,066 + 117.35 X and R2 = 0.990 with value of LoD is1.15x10-3 M and LoQ is 3.86x10-3 M. The value of SDR and recovery in samples orange, kaffir lime, and lime are 1.64%, 0.53% 2.14%, and 100.47%, 93.58%, 93.78%, respectively. Base on validation method data, can be concluded that this method appropriate to be used to determination of total antioxidant for samples orange, kaffir lime, and lime.
