Percentage yield of these seaweeds extracts acquired was 20% using 95% ethanol as extraction solvent. Total phenolic content of Caulerpa racemosa and Caulerpa lentillifera extract at highest concentration of 100 μg/ml were at 443.34 ± 0.16 μg GAE/g and 394.08 ± 0.04 μg GAE/g, respectively. While, percentage scavenging activity of Caulerpa racemosa and Caulerpa lentillifera extract at 100 μg/ml were on 65.59% and 63.73%. At 100 μg/ml, FRAP value of Caulerpa racemosa and Caulerpa lentillifera extract were at 565.94 ± 0.03 μg AAE/g and 453.89 ± 0.05 μg AAE/g, respectively. Through all the tests that have been done in this study, both of the samples were seen to have a potential in health promoting product to fight the pathological effect of free radicals due to their antioxidant activity ability. 2020-07 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/32864/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/32864/1/32864.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi Mara Perlis Faculty of Applied Sciences
