Abstract

Hypercholesterolemia is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease, which is characterized by increased cholesterol levels in the blood. The leaves of Ziziphus spina-christi (Arabian bidara) are known to contain flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and alkaloids that have the potential to provide antihypercholesterolemia effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ethanol extract of Z. spina-christi leaves on the reduction of total cholesterol in hypercholesterolemia mice. Extraction is carried out by the maceration method using 96% ethanol and produces a yield of 3.8%. A total of 36 male mice were divided into six groups (n=6): negative control, positive control (propylthiouracil induction), drug control (simvastatin), and three extract treatment groups with doses of 14, 28, and 56 mg/20 g BB. The treatment was given orally for four days, then cholesterol levels were analyzed using the enzymatic method CHOD-PAP. The results showed that the positive control cholesterol levels increased significantly (189.3 ± 6.2 mg/dL) compared to the negative control (112.7 ± 10.3 mg/dL). The administration of the extract lowered cholesterol levels gradually: 170.4 ± 6.3 mg/dL (10%), 159.6 ± 7.6 mg/dL (15.7%), and 147.3 ± 11.7 mg/dL (22.2%). Simvastatin decreased more (117.7 ± 12.5 mg/dL; 37.8%). It was concluded that bidara arabic leaf extract has antihypercholesterolemia potential with a multifactorial mechanism, although its effectiveness is lower than that of simvastatin.

Abstract

Vitamin C is an antioxidant that can be used to inactivate oxidation reactions and prevent the formation of free radicals. Sources of vitamin C are fruits, such as papaya fruit. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the indicator volume of 1% starch and 2 N sulfuric acid on the determination of vitamin C in papaya fruit samples. This study used the iodimetri method with a standard iodine solution, starch indicator and the addition of sulfuric acid. The variations of starch indicator volume include: 0.25; 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 mL and the variations of sulfuric acid volume include: 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 mL. The results showed that the optimum 1% starch indicator volume was 1 mL and the optimum volume of 2 N sulfuric acid was 2 mL.

Abstract

Ascorbic acid mostly comes from vegetables and fruits, especially fresh fruits. Vitamin C is a vitamin that can be formed by several types of plants. One of them is papaya which has various contents including vitamin C that can increase endurance, help skin rejuvenation and repair body tissues. The purpose of this study was to determine the levels of vitamin C contained in papaya using iodimetry and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The sample used in this study was papaya fruit. Determination of vitamin C levels in papaya samples using the titration method bas done by adding sample filtrate with starch indicator then titrated with titrant I2 until the endpoint color of blue titration is formed. Other hands, the determination of vitamin C levels in papaya samples using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method bas conducted by making an ascorbic acid calibration curve then the filtrated sample was added with H2SO4 5% and ammonium molybdate reagent, then the absorbance of the sample was measured at 494 nm wavelength. The results of the determination of vitamin C levels using the iodimetry was 0.0147% and the results of the determination of vitamin C levels using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method was 0.1313%. In conclusion, vitamin C levels analyzed by using UV-Vis spectrophotometry methods were greater than vitamin C levels analyzed by using the iodimetry method.
