Catalase enzyme is one of the endogenous intracellular antioxidant that can be reduced by oxidative stress conditions. The peel of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) as a potent exogenous antioxidants could support the internal enzyme activity to prevent free radicals. The aim of this research was to determine the effect of n-hexane fraction of H.polyrhizus’s peel and the dose that could increase activity of catalase. The peel was maserated with chloroform, then fractionated by n-hexane. Stress condition was achieved by five days fasting and swimming for 10 mins/day to …
