Abstract

The leaves of kenikir are known to have many benefits, one of which can be used as medicine. Kenikir leaves are reported to have antibacterial activity against the bacteria Salmonella typhi (S.typhi). S. typhi is a bacterium that causes typhoid fever. Typhoid fever is still an endemic disease in Asian countries, especially Indonesia. Typhoid fever became the third largest disease in Indonesia in 2010. The study related to the antibacterial activity of kenikir leaf fraction to S. typhi has never been reported. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research related to the antibacterial activity of extracts and leaf fractions of kenikir to compare their potential against S. typhi. The study was conducted using the disk diffusion method using 5 series of concentrations namely 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 30%. Tests were carried out on methanol extract, hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol-water fraction. The results showed that highest inhibition zone diameter is 7,75 mm which is reached by methanol extract. The order of the highest inhibiting zone diameter are extract, hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol-water fraction.

Abstract

Jati belanda leaves (Guazuma ulmifolia Lmk.) and Roselle petals (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) have been known for their activity as antihyperlipidemia with different mechanisms. Combination of these plants was expected to has a synergy effect in reducing cholesterol. However, the toxicity of jati belanda leaves and roselle petals extract combination must be investigated for knowing its safety. Based on the acute toxicity test, the LD50 value of jati belanda leaves and roselle petals extract combination was >5,000 mg/kg bw. It was classified as category 5 or unclassified. This research aimed to study about its effect in cardiac by cardiac histopathology examinations of the rats. The result showed that there was no cardiac histopathology changes of the rats at doses 5,000 mg/kg bw. Keywords: jati belanda leaves, roselle petals, acute toxicity, cardiac histopathology
