Research on Gel Formulation of red betel leaf extract (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav) for the treatment of burn wounds in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) has been conducted. This study aimed to determine variation’s effect of concentration in gel of red betel leaf extract for the treatment of burn wounds in rabbits which had been wounded using hot metal. In this study, the viscous extract was formulated into gel with concentrations of 1%, 2% and 3%. The Gel’s Physical quality evaluation included organoleptic, pH, homogeneity and dispersive ability tests on day 0 until day 28. The gel activity test was performed on 5 rabbits divided into five treatment groups. Each rabbit was burn-wounded using hot metal plate at diameter of 20 mm. Each group was given five wounds consisting of a negative control, 1%, 2%, 3% of extract formula and a positive control. The diameter measurement of the wounds was done on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th and the 21st day. Data of wound healing percentage was statistically analyzed with Two-Way ANOVA. The results showed that the gel with 3% of red betel leaf extract of which percentage of healing as much as 85.81% compared to gel extract 1% and 2% with percentage 65,32% dan 76,58%.
The use of herbal medicines and synthetic drugs simultaneously carried out by diabetics for the maintenance of blood glucose levels, such as the use of glibenclamide and bay leaf. This research was carried out to know the impact of administration bay leaf extract on glibenclamide in lowering blood glucose levels on mices that induced by alloxan. This research used 40 male mices which were divided into 8 groups. Before the experiment, the mices were first induced by alloxan (70 mg/kg BW) intravenously. The negative control was the group that given Na CMC 0,5%, KG was the control of glibenclamide 0,65 mg/kg BW, group DS1, DS2, DS3 were the control of single bay leaf extract with each dose 250 mg/kg BW, 500 mg/kg BW, and 750 mg/kg BW, group KD1, KD2, KD3 were the combination group of glibenclamide and bay leaf extract with each dose glibenclamide combined bay leaf extract 250 mg/kg BW, glibenclamide combined bay leaf extract 500 mg/kg BW, and glibenclamide combined bay leaf extract 750 mg/kg BW, with an hour interval. The data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) at 95% confidence interval with parameter of blood glucose levels difference between before and after treatment. The results showed that the administration of bay leaf extract gave significant impact on glibenclamide in lowering blood glucose levels and the effective dose was the combination of glibenclamide 0,65 mg/kg BW and bay leaf extract 250 mg/kg BW
Jawa bark (Lannea coromandelica) is a part of the plant that can be used empirically for handling wounds. This study aims to determine the activity of ethanol extract of Jawa bark on healing wound and determine the effective dose compared with povidone iodine. The test animals used were white rats (Rattus norvegicus L.) consisting of 5 groups, namely negative control (vaseline without extract), positive control (povidone iodine), dose of 250 mg/kg BW, dose of 500 mg/kg BW, dose of 750 mg/kg BW. Each rat made an incision in the area parallel to the spine with 2 cm long and 2 mm deep. Measuring the length of the wound was done every day for 14 days. The data obtained were analyzed statistically using One Way Anova and followed by Post Hoc Duncan test. Statistical results showed that the ethanol extract of Jawa bark has an activity in curing slice where the effective dose is a dose of 500 mg/kg BW with a wound healing time of 12 days.
Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental murni dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui gejala toksisitas akut dan lethal dose 50 ekstrak etanol uwi Banggai ungu (Dioscorea alata L.) terhadap tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus). Penelitian ini menggunakan 20 ekor tikus yang dibagi menjadi empat kelompok dan diberikan dosis bertingkat yaitu 1 g/kgBB, 2 g/kgBB, 4 g/kgBB, dan 8 g/kgBB ekstrak etanol uwi Banggai ungu dengan sekali pemberian secara oral kemudian diamati gejala ketoksikan dan jumlah kematian pada tiap hewan uji setelah 24 jam, selanjutnya dilakukan pengamatan bobot badan selama 14 hari tanpa diberikan perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan LD50 ekstrak etanol uwi Banggai ungu (Dioscorea alata L.) adalah semu atau bukan LD50 yang sesungguhnya yaitu >8 g/kgBB dan masuk dalam kategori praktis tidak toksik (5-15 g/kgBB). Gejala klinis yang teramati pada tikus yaitu menurunnya aktivitas motorik pada dosis tertinggi dan frekuensi grooming yang meningkat seiring dengan peningkatan dosis.
Gedi hijau (Abelmoschus manihot (L.)Medik ) mengandung flavonoid, alkaloid, tannin, dan saponin yang mampu melindungi mukosa lambung. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas gastroprotektif serta untuk mengetahui dosis efektif ekstrak etanol daun gedi hijau dalam pemberian efek gastroprotektif terhadap tikus putih jantan yang diinduksi dengan aspirin. Ekstrak diperoleh dengan cara maserasi menggunakan pelarut etanol 96%. Sampel terdiri dari 24 ekor tikus putih jantan (Rattus norvegicus L.) dibagi dalam 6 kelompok. Perlakuan diberi per oral selama 3 hari meliputi: Kelompok kontrol normal diberi 0,5% Na-CMC; kelompok kontrol negatif diberi 0,5% Na-CMC + Aspirin 600 mg/kg BB; kelompok kontrol positif diberi suspensi Sukralfat 360 mg/kg BB + Aspirin 600 mg/kg BB; kelompok dosis uji 1 diberi ekstrak etanol daun gedi hijau 100 mg/kg BB + Aspirin 600 mg/kg BB; kelompok dosis uji 2 diberi ekstrak etanol daun gedi hijau 200 mg/kg BB + Aspirin 600 mg/kg BB; kelompok dosis uji 3 diberi ekstrak etanol daun gedi hijau 300 mg/kg BB + Aspirin 600 mg/kg BB. Pada hari ke 3, tikus dibedah 4 jam setelah pemberian aspirin, diambil organ lambung untuk dilakukan perhitungan indeks ulser dan persen inhibisi. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji statistik Kruskal Wallis dan uji statistik Mann Whitney dengan α = 0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak daun gedi hijaudapat mencegah kerusakan mukosa lambung tikus yang dipapar aspirin dengan dosis efektif adalah 300 mg/kg BB yang sebanding dengan sukralfat
