The paper interprets data distribution by using boxplot pre-processing in classify the quality of Agarwood oil for eleven chemical substances into four different qualities. The varieties usage of Agarwood oil makes it considered as an expensive and valuable product on the essential oil market. Perfumes, fragrances, incense, aromatherapy, and traditional medicine are the most popular Agarwood oil applications. However, the classification of Agarwood oil grades does not yet have standard grading method. This because it has been graded manually into different qualities by using human sensory evaluation. Boxplot analysis involving eleven chemical subtances that will be focusing in this study by concerned the quality for low, medium low, medium high and high. ɤ-eudesmol, ar-curcumene, β-dihydro agarofuran, ϒ-cadinene, α-agarofuran, allo aromadendrene epoxide, valerianol, α-guaiene, 10-epi-ɤ-eudesmol, β-agarofuran, and dihydrocollumellarin compounds are the selected significant compounds that represent the input for boxplot. Agarwood oil consist 660 data samples from low, medium low, medium high, and high quality. The result in this study showed that the four selected significant compounds (ɤ-eudesmol, 10-epi-ɤ-eudesmol, β-agarofuran, and dihydrocollumellarin) are important as a marker for Agarwood oil quality classification. The identification of chemical substances on high quality done as reference for future research studies.

In this study, the bark of the Aquilaria agallocha was extracted, and the phenolic content of A. agallocha extract was determined using high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector. The A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films were prepared by using a different amount of A. agallocha extract (0, 1, 4, and 8 mL) and chitosan solution. Some physical properties of A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films, water vapor permeability, solubility, swelling ratio, humidity ratio, thickness, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis were investigated. The antibacterial activities, total phenolic content, and antioxidant capacity analysis of the A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films were performed. The total phenolic content (0, 1, 4, and 8 mL of A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films 0.92 ± 0.09, 1.34 ± 0.04, 2.94 ± 0.10, and 4.62 ± 0.10 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g film, respectively) and antioxidant capacity (0, 1, 4, and 8 mL of A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films 52.61 ± 2.85, 104.28 ± 4.78, 304.30 ± 18.23, and 592.11 ± 0.67 mg Trolox equivalent (TE)/g film, respectively) of A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films increased with the increase in the amount of extract. At the same time, the increase in the amount of antioxidant capacity improved the physical features of the films. The results of the antibacterial activity studies showed that all of the A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible films prevented bacterial growth from Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus considering controlling group. K E Y W O R D Santimicrobial activity, antioxidant, Aquilaria agallocha, edible chitosan film Practical Applications: To investigate the activity of antioxidant extractbiodegradable film, the A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible film had prepared.The results showed that A. agallocha extract-chitosan edible film was antioxidant and antibacterial properties and was used as food packaging material successfully.
