Abstract :
Red guava fruit is a fruit that is rich in antioxidants as an antidote to free
radicals. One of the compounds that play a role is flavonoid compounds. The
purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fruit storage time on total
flavonoid levels in red guava fruit juice (Psidium guajava Linn.) With variations
in the storage time of fruit 0, 3, and 6 days at 5oC. Qualitative analysis of samples
with Mg metal and concentrated HCl positive containing flavonoids, showing
yellow color change. Samples with positive NaOH reagent containing flavonoids,
showed yellow color change. Samples with positive H2SO4 reagent containing
flavonoids, showed brown color change. Quantitative analysis was carried out by
UV-Vis spectrophotometry with a wavelength of 428 nm at the operating time of
the 10th minute, showing the results of day 0 has level 1.1667 mg QE / 100 g
guava fruit juice, day 3 was 1, 1320 mg QE / 100 g guava fruit juice, day 6 of
1,0910 mg QE / 100 g guava fruit juice, with% KV on day 0 of 0,8031%, day 3 of
0,6059 %, the 6th day of 0,5067%.
