  • Background: Mengkudu is a traditional plant with active compound that has antioxidant activity. Diabetes mellitus complication has causative link with AGEs formation that involves free radical. Objective: To know antioxidant activity of mengkudu and the role to inhibit AGEs formation. Methods: This experiment used pre and post test control group design. Antioxidant activity was determined by reacting the mengkudu juice with 2,4 dinitrophenylhydrazin (DNPH) and analyzed with spectrophotometer X=390 nm. AGEs absorbancy was measured every 48 hours until 20 days with spectrophotometer ?=340 nm. Dicarbonyl level was determined with DNPH method that was developed by Uchida and modified by Sadikin. Result: Antioxidant activity of 0.25 g/mI mengkudu juice (Morinda citrifolia) was 125.46±27.79%. Beside that, mengkudu juice can inhibit advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation. Conclusion: formationMengkudu juice can decrease AGEs formation and has antioxidant activity. Key words: antioxidant - mengkudu juice - AGEs - glycosilation
