COMPARATIVE TEST OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CEMPEDAK (Artocarpus champeden) LEAF ETHANOL EXTRACT CREAM WITH ZINC OXIDE CREAM IN DECREASING TNF-? LEVEL AND SUNBURN CELLS FROM THE EPIDERMIS OF RATS (Rattus norvegicus) EXPOSED TO ULTRAVIOLET B
Abstract:Backgrounds:Cempedak is an endemic plant in Indonesia and its leaf has potential action as a sunscreen because it contains flavonoid compounds that have photoprotective effect because it can absorb ultraviolet. This study to prove the effect of cempedak (Artocarpus champeden) leaf extract cream compared with zinc oxide (ZnO) cream in decreasing TNF-level and sunburn cells from the epidermis of rats (Rattus norvegicus) exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB). Methods: The research was an experimental study with a random… Show more
