The results of the study used three extracts namely ethanol extract, ethyl acetate extract and n-hexane extract of ambon banana heart has activity as an antioxidant. The intensity of antioxidant activity successively from the highest was ethanol extract of 71,129 μg/mL (strong), n-hexane extract of 101,990 μg/mL (medium), ethyl acetate extract of ambon banana heart of 135,311 μg/mL (medium) so that of the three extracts that have the strongest antioxidant activity potential against DPPH free radicals is ambon banana heart ethanol extrac
