Abstract :
Cherry plants are tropical plants that grow a lot in various regions in
Indonesia cherries contain antioxidant activity, one of which is flavonoids. This
study aims to determine the total flavonoid levels of steeping dried and fresh
cherry leaves by using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method. In steeping fresh
cherry leaves have levels of 0.01257 ± 7.144606917.10-07 with % KV of
0.005683%. While dry steeping has levels of 0.09277 ± 1,300369371.10-5 with%
KV of 0.0140%. Furthermore, the test "Homogeneity of Variances" obtained a
significant value of 0.789> 0.05. In the Anova test that the significant value of
flavonoid levels is 0,000 <0.05, it can be seen that there is a significant difference
between the total flavonoid levels of steeping fresh and dried cherry leaves.
