Abstract

The study aims to determine the phytochemical profile of ethanol extract of kacang saca leaves and its effect on reducing blood glucose and triglyceride levels. Used 18 mice were divided into six groups, namely the normal group, the positive control group (glibenclamide treatment), the negative (alloxan induction), and the treatment group doses used were 0.0262 mg/dL, 0.0525 mg/dL, and 0.105. mg/dL. The treatment of mice was carried out for 10 days with three measurements, namely before treatment, on the 7th day, and on the 10th day of giving the extract. Phytochemical test results showed the presence of flavonoid compounds, alkaloids, steroids, saponins, and tannins. The data obtained were analyzed using the SPSS application. The results of the measurement of blood glucose levels in mice on the 7th day showed normal numbers, the results of data analysis showed no significant difference, namely 0.164. In the measurement of triglycerides, triglyceride levels fell in two groups, namely groups 1 and 3. Data on the 10th day there was an increase in blood glucose and triglycerides. Analysis of the data showed that there was no significant difference in each group on day 7 and day 10. The ethanol extract of cacao beans has the potential to reduce glucose levels used for 7 days but does not affect the triglyceride levels of mice.Keywords: Alloxan; Glucose; Mice; Triglyceride; Plukenetia volubilis

Abstract

This research aims to identify the physicochemical characteristics and pathogenic antibacterial activity of papaya leaf extract liquid soap (Carica Papaya L.). The sample used was papaya leaf extract whose mass was varied. The data acquisition process was obtained from the results of physicochemical testing of liquid soap formulations and from the results of antibacterial activity tests. This research began by extracting the sample using maceration technique. The extract was then formulated to be the liquid soap formulation 1, 2 and 3 with various masses i.e. three, four and five grams of extract, respectively. The physicochemical test showed that the organoleptic test, pH test, foam height test, specific gravity test, water content test and free alkali test met the SNI physical quality standards for liquid soap and the antibacterial activity test carried out on S. aureus and E. coli bacteria was obtained for S. aureus bacteria. formulations 1, 2 and 3 produce resistance of 2.06 mm, 2.21 mm and 2.46 mm respectively. Meanwhile, for E. coli bacteria, the inhibitory power produced by formulations 1, 2 and 3 was 2.84 mm, 3.41 mm and 3.71 mm, respectively. Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that the liquid soap formulation from papaya leaf extract meets the physical standards for liquid soap quality according to SNI and has antibacterial activity.
