Abstract
This study was investigated on the antioxidative activity of $70\%$ ethanol extracts from lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) leaf. The extraction yields of $70\%$ ethanol extract was $8.16\%$. The extract was further fractionated subsequently by hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. Antioxidative activity was examined by electron donating ability (EDA) using DPPH, TBA value, acid value (AV), and peroxide value (POV), in comparison with commercial antioxidants. Butanol fraction showed the highest extraction yields but ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest phenol content. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest EDA. The antioxidative activity of ethyl acetate fraction determined by AV and POV in accelerated oxidation condition of lard was similar to that of BHA.
