Abstract

Nipa palm sap (NPS) as source of medicine traditionally used to treat various diseases. This study identified good radical scavenging activity in NPS with the IC50 value of 33.36 g/mL using 2 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. NPS comprises of moisture (72.44) ash (1.04) protein (7.04) carbohydrate (19.48) fat (0) and energy level (106 kcal). Glucose (0.3) and fructose (1.8) were detected using high-performance liquid chromatography. Maleic acid cinnamic acid chlorogenic acid and kaempferol were the predominant compounds revealed by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography. Overall NPS has the potential antioxidants sources with significant health benefits and values for commercialisation.
