The longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) leaves, which are the underutilized part of trimming longan trees to increase their fruit productivity, were of interest in this study. They have been reported to contain phytochemical components which might be used for anti-aging purposes. In this study, longan leaves were extracted using two different solvents including 95% ethanol and 50% ethanol, named ethanolic extract (ET) and hydroethanolic extract (HE), respectively. The extracts were investigated

Additionally, HPLC-fingerprinting of the extract was performed. The results revealed that HE had a higher yield with the remarkable property of superior in vitro biological activity compared with ET. HE showed radical scavenging activity on DPPH and hydrogen peroxide with IC50 of 30.03 ± 7.64 and 71.40 ± 15.30 µg/ml, respectively. Moreover, it showed inhibition of lipid peroxidation with IC50 of 537.01 ± 42.32 µg/ml. For inhibition against hyaluronidase and collagenase, HE was detected with IC50 of 234.80 ± 21.52 and 314.44 ± 62.14 µg/ml, respectively. The extract also demonstrated MMP-2 and MMP-9 inhibition, which is more potent than gallic acid as determined by zymography at 1.0 mg/ml. In conclusion, hydroethanolic extract (HE) of longan leaves presented high potential as in vitro antioxidant and inhibitor of enzymatic
