Artocarpus have been used as traditional medicine in South-East Asia. One of the species, Artocarpus altilis has been known in Indonesia as traditional treatment for diabetic. Objective: This research aimed to discover {\ensuremath{\alpha}}-amylase inhibitor activity of Artocarpus altilis leaves. Methods: Leaves were extracted by maceration method, followed by phytochemical screening and quercetin identification using LC-MS method. Inhibition of {\ensuremath{\alpha}}-amylase was measured using UV-Vis spectrophotometer at 524 nm wavelength, while antioxidant activity was determined using DPPH. Results: Artocarpus altilis leaves ethanol extract exhibited activity against {\ensuremath{\alpha}}-amylase with 155.96 ppm IC50 (0.27 times relative potential compared to acarbose) and the extract showed antioxidant activity with the IC50 of 999.96 ppm. Conclusion: Artocarpus altilis showed activity as the {\ensuremath{\alpha}}-amylase inhibitor.}, author = {Lusi, Putri Dwita and Vivi Anggia, Vivi and Tri Dewi Prasetyatuti, Tri} }
