The test was done by 60 Balb/c male mices that divided into 6 groups : control group, testing group that was treated with pegagan extract dose of 25 mg/KgBB, 50 mg/KgBB, 100 mg/KgBB, 200 mg/KgBB and 400 mg/KgBB. All of mices were vaccinated on day 0 and days 15. Furthermore, identification of triterpen glicosida compound was done by KLT method using BAW 4:1:5 as upper eluen. Lymphocyte cells were isolated and the cells proliferation measured by MTT reduction method. Data was analyzed statistically using 95% confidence level.
