The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of passion fruit peel and seeds an the activity in inhibiting collagenase. The ethanolic extract of seed and peel of <em>P.edulis</em> was determined by antioxidant activity using DPPH scavenging method and continued with the investigation of anticollagenase activity. The result showed that the IC<sub>50</sub> of peel extract and seed extract of <em>P.edulis</em> were 56.11 ± 2.26 µg/mL and 88.25 ± 14.31 µg/mL respectively. The IC<sub>50</sub> of anti-collagenase activity of peel and seed extract of <em>P.edulis</em> were 82.53 ± 1.42 µg/mL and 225.40 ± 9.12 µg/mL respectively. From the result, it concluded that peel and seed extract of <em>P.edulis</em> possesses remarkable potency as anti-collagenase activity and have the potential to be developed as anti-aging skin nutraceutical.</p> ER -
