But the antioxidant and cytotoxicity activities of M. malabathricum L. fruit ethanolic extract were not known. This study measured the quercetin and kaempferol level in M. malabathricum L. fruit ethanolic extract using HPLC MS/MS, antioxidant activity using DPPH method, and cytotoxicity activity using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method. Results showed the level of quercetin and kaempferol from M. malabathricum L fruit ethanolic extract are 67.78 μg/g and 43.52 μg/g, respectively. Beside, the antioxidant activity with by IC50 was 16.82±0.24 ppm and 7.38±0.41 ppm.
