The results of the instant powder ash content test were 1.16 ± 0.03%; 1.18 ±0.04%; and 1.11 ± 0.03%. The positive instant powder qualitative test results containedpolyphenols as indicated by the formation of blackish-brown color. Polyphenol levels in instantpowder were 43.83 ± 1.76 mg GAE/g; 34.40 ± 0.71 mg GAE/g; and 29.50 ± 0.76 mg GAE/g.The instant powder is classified as a medium antioxidant category with an IC50 value of 119.25ppm respectively; 129.25 ppm; and 146,40 ppm.The Conclusion Formula 1 is a formula that has a large polyphenol content and strongantioxidant activity.
