Abstract
Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is one of the most popular fruits which has been widely used medicinally. The major constituents are mostly found in the pericarp particularly, xanthones, which are tricyclic isoprenylated polyphenols. Xanthones have been reported to for its anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-proliferative, proapoptotic and anti-carcinogenic activities. In this study, the mangosteen pericarps in various age levels were investigated with electron microscopy and X-ray spectroscopy. The results revealed the mangosteen at age level 3 showed the highest concentration of xanthone while those younger and older mangosteens exhibited lower xanthone content. The mangosteen pericarp with highest xanthone concentration showed crystalline structure and contained small amount of silver and gold particles which was analyzed with EDX measurement and confirmed by the XRD spectrum.
