The human body needs compounds that are antioxidants to prevent oxidative stress. Some parts of the mangosteen fruit (Garcinia mangostana L.) have been known as sources of bioactive compounds that have antioxidant properties. The pericarp and seeds of mangosteen were extracted using the MAE method to produce the extract with the greatest antioxidant activity. There are two types of solvent mixtures used in the extraction process: single-phase and two-phase solvents. The solvents used were ethanol (EtOH), ethyl acetate (EtOAc), isopropyl alcohol (IPA), and water. First, utilizing dried mangosteen pericarp powder as the raw material, a study was undertaken to determine the ideal operating conditions for the MAE process. A one-factor-at-a-time approach was used to find the best operating conditions. A mixture of solvents with varied ratios (mL/mL), extraction temperature (°C), extraction time (min), and solid to solvent ratio (g/mL) were applied as independent variables. Then, dried mangosteen seed powder extraction was carried out based on the best-operating conditions previously achieved. The DPPH scavenging activity, total phenolic content (TPC) value, and α-mangostin content of the two extracts were compared. It was discovered that the mangosteen pericarp extract showed higher antioxidant activity (IC50 DPPH = 9.40 µg/mL) than the mangosteen seed extract (IC50 DPPH = 37.54 µg/mL), even slightly better than ascorbic acid (IC50 DPPH = 10.47 µg/mL). The best extract was produced from the bottom phase of two-phase solvent system (EtOAc:EtOH:Water 2:1:2), with an MAE temperature of 50 °C, a time of 4 min, and a solid-to-solvent ratio of 1:16. The TPC value of the best extract is 903.54 mgGAE/g extract, with a yield of 16.53 % and an α-mangostin concentration of 0.11 %.
