In this study, the mangosteen extract was integrated to PVP fibers to form acomposite by means of rotary forcespinning method aiming to increase the bioavailability and solubility of the extract. The goal of this study was to produce composite fibers with mangosteen extracts as the active ingredient. The mangosteen extract was mixed into PVP solution with thevariousratio (1:0.08, 1:0.10 and 1:0.12) to achieve the best result in term of morphology and antioxidant activity. The morphology and diameter of the fibers were analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The SEM image analysis confirmed the formation of bead-free, crystal-free, and aggregate-free fibers hence proving the perfect loading of the mangosteen extract into the PVP fibers. Beside SEM analysis, the fibers also underwent Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and antioxidant test using DPPH assay. From the FTIR analysis, it has been found that there was aninteraction between the PVP and the extract in the fiber while the DPPH assay test has proven that the extract still retained its antioxidant ability although already being integrated into the fiber.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Active ingredients,Anti-oxidant activities,Composite fibers,Fourier transform infrared,Mangosteen extract,Poly vinyl pyrrolidone,rotary forcespinning,SEM image analysis[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]antioxidant,fiber,Mangosteen extract,polyvinylpyrrolidone,rotary forcespinning[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1016/j.proeng.2017.03.003[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
