Abstract

This study aimed to analyze flavonoid and 6-gingerol content and to test the hypoglycemic effects of industrial-grade Cajanus cajan (pigeon pea) leaf and Zingiber officinale rhizome (ginger) extracts on hyperglycemic rats. Extraction utilized maceration with 70% alcohol at PT. Insular Multi Natural. Extracts were characterized and analyzed for flavonoids and 6-gingerol content. Hypoglycemic activity was assessed using the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) on rats with induced hyperglycemia via 90% sucrose solution. The results indicated higher flavonoid content in C. cajan leaf extract (4090.09338.23 mg/100 g) compared to Z. officinale extract (622.74203.39 mg/100 g), while gingerol content in Z. officinale extract was 701.524.42 mg/100 g. This study concluded that combination of industrial-grade pigeon pea leaves extract and ginger extract reduce the level of blood glucose in hyperglycemic model rats at all combination dose (150:150, 200:100, and 100:200 mg/kg BW). The combination dose of 200:100 mg/kg BW showed the best blood glucose level profile.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate three sets of B1 gene DNA primer for the diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii. The DNA of Toxoplasma gondii that stored on liquid nitrogen was isolated using DNAzol reagent. The first step of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCRs) was performed using external and internal primer sets, respectively, and then nPCR. PCR products sequencing was performed by Apical Science. All sequences were analysed using CLC Sequence Viewer Version 8.0 software and compared to sequence database that deposited in ToxoDB (Toxoplasma gondii genome database) using BLAST (https://toxodb.org/toxo/app). Each B1 gene primer was evaluated by performing single PCR (forward and reverse) and nested PCR reactions. Three sets of B1 gene primer have different amplification precision. According to the results of amplicon sequencing, the primer set #2 has the best amplification precision of B1 gene.

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the safety of ethanolic extract of Acalypha hispida (A. hispida) leaves with acute toxicity test using 15 female rats strain Sprague-Dawley. A single dose of different doses of extract (2, 4, 8, and 16 g/kg body weight) was administrated orally, and theobservation was conducted for 14 days. The results revealed that the ethanolic extract of A. hispida leaves was relatively harmless (LD50 16 g/kg BW), did not affect body weight, and did not show clinical signs of toxicity during the observation periods. The parameters of blood serumbiochemistry of all extract-treated groups (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatinine, and urea) did not change significantly compared to the control group. The histological observation of the liver showed a significant increase in eosinophilic cytoplasm and basophilic nuclei at all doses. However, the ethanolic extract of A. hispida leaves did not significantly affect glomerulus/Bowmans capsule ratio, glomerular cell density, and the proportion of normal cell tubule. In conclusion, the ethanolic extract of A. hispida leaves was relatively harmless with LD5016 g/kg BW and seems to be safe in low doses (2 g/kg BW).
