Abstract

The ethnopharmacological approach and One Health framework offer a novel perspective with significant potential in controlling rabies cases in East Nusa (NTT), Indonesia. Traditional medicines rooted in local knowledge can complement existing prevention and treatment strategies. This descriptive study involved 20 respondents to explore local practices related to rabies treatment. The findings indicate that integrating ethnopharmacological insights with the One Health approach can contribute significantly to rabies control, particularly in Kualin Subdistrict, South Central Timor Regency, NTT. The study identified local practices, analyzed their integration with modern medical interventions, and educated the community about rabies prevention. These results highlight the importance of incorporating ethnopharmacological knowledge into public health programs while promoting cross-sectoral collaboration in human, animal, and environmental Health. Further research is needed to evaluate the efficacy of medicinal plants used by the community. Additionally, developing community-based educational programs and strengthening collaborations between the government, non-governmental organizations, and local communities are crucial for creating effective and sustainable strategies for rabies control in NTT.

Abstract

Rabies is a zoonotic disease caused by the rabies virus and can be fatal if not treated immediately. In Kualin, East Nusa Tenggara, local people have long used traditional medicinal plants to treat rabies. This research aims to explore the types of medicinal plants used by the Kualin community in treating rabies, as well as find out their properties and how to use them. The research method used is descriptive qualitative through interviews and direct observation. The results of the research show that several plants are often used, including soursop (Annona muricata), turmeric (Curcuma longa), ginger (Zingiber officinale), gotu kola leaves (Centella asiatica), and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum). This ethnopharmacological knowledge needs to be preserved and developed as part of local wisdom in managing public health. Further research is needed to identify and test the effectiveness of medicinal plants used by the community in treating rabies.

Abstract

Ndusuk leaves (Melastoma malabathricum L.) are traditionally used by the Manggarai community to reduce the fatty appearance of pork dishes, yet the molecular basis of this practice has not been investigated using a GC-MS-based metabolomic approach. This study compared the metabolite profiles of Ndusuk leaf decoctions prepared without and with pork. Dried leaves (35 g) were decocted in 2.5 L of water at 100°C for 30 min under two treatments: leaves only (control) and leaves with 100 g pork (sample), each performed in triplicate (n = 3). Metabolites were analyzed by GC-MS and tentatively identified using the NIST library (similarity index ≥80%). The control contained 118 tentatively identified metabolites, whereas the pork-treated extract contained 126. Boiling with pork increased cis-vaccenic acid (+4.07%) and palmitic acid (+1.92%), while decreasing melezitose (−2.80%) and glycerol (−0.73%). These findings demonstrate that cooking with pork alters the metabolite profile of Ndusuk leaf decoctions without providing evidence of direct fat reduction. The observed metabolite shifts may suggest possible phenolic–lipid interactions, antioxidant-related processes, and Maillard reaction-associated changes; however, these mechanisms require confirmation using targeted metabolomics and authentic standards. This study provides the first metabolomic evidence supporting the traditional culinary use of Ndusuk leaves and establishes a scientific basis for Manggarai pork-cooking practices.
