Abstract

Gynura procumbens is a plant that contains flavonoid compounds as antioxidants and has a hepatoprotective effect. A hepatoprotector is a compound that can protect the liver from liver damage. One way to determine liver function is to measure the enzyme activity of Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) and Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT). This study aimed to determine the hepatoprotective effect of the extract ethanol of Gynura procumbens on the liver induced by paracetamol toxic dose. This study used 20 white male rats divided into five groups: positive control group, negative control (NaCMC 1%), and paracetamol dose of 2.400mg/kg bw). EDSNY 100 mg/kg bw, 200 mg/kg bw, 300 mg/kg bw + 2.400 mg/kg paracetamolThe rat blood samples were taken through the lateral vein, and then the SGOT and SGPT were measured before, after 4 days, and on the 6th day after paracetamol induction. The results showed that the ethanol extract of Gynura procumbens significantly reduced the levels of SGPT in mice at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw. However, the ethanol extract of Gynura procumbens leaves could not reduce SGOT levels in rats. From the histopathological results, it was evident that both low, medium, and high doses had not been able to significantly improve liver damage induced by toxic doses of paracetamol. However, the ethanol extract of Gynura procumbens leaves appeared to reduce the number of areas of necrosis and degeneration of hepatocytes compared to the negative control group. Based on the study's results, the ethanol extract of Gynura procumbens leaves at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw was able to protect against an increase in SGPT. Still, it hadn't shown that it was the best way to protect the liver from damage caused by too much paracetamol.

Abstract

Cholesterol is a fatty substance in the human body’s cells. A person who has high cholesterol levels may develop coronary heart disease (CHD), which increases their risk of developing atherosclerosis. Due to pregnancy, hormonal, and menopausal reasons, women over the age of 40 are more likely to have elevated cholesterol levels than younger women. Apples' fiber content has been shown to reduce blood cholesterol levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of apple juice on cholesterol levels. A pretest-posttest group design with a pre-experimental methodology was used in this study. 38 women between the ages of 40 and 66 made up the sample of this study. Every morning for seven days, respondents received apple juice. The study was carried out in August 2020. According to this study, apple juice has a positive effect in lowering total cholesterol levels. Prior to receiving apple juice, the mean total cholesterol level was 226.68 17.230 mg/dL, while the mean cholesterol level after apple juice treatment was 184.39 13.771 mg/dL. Total cholesterol levels before and after receiving apple juice are known to differ by 42.29 mg/dL. The Paired T-Test analysis of the data revealed a value of P = 0.000 (P 0.05), indicating that there was an effect of giving apple juice on lowering respondents' total cholesterol levels.

Abstract

The host's cellular immune response plays an important role in the process of eliminating microorganisms that cause infection. Substances that can stimulate an increase in the immune response are called immunostimulators. Snail seromucoid contains bioactive compounds such as glycans, peptides, glycopeptides and chondroitin sulfate. Chitosan as an antimicrobial agent can be used in the biomedical field because chitosan has a number of hydroxyl groups (OH) and amine groups (NH2). The research objective was to determine the potency and effectiveness of snail seromucoid and chitosan as bioimmunostimulators. The research method is based on laboratory experimental results with the research stages, namely the analysis of the effectiveness of seromucoid and chitosan on lymphocyte proliferation. The results of the one way ANOVA analysis showed a p value of 0.000 so that there was a significant effect between the treatment groups, namely the effect of giving chitosan 65 ug/ml; snail mucus 65 ug/mL and a combination of chitosan (65 ug/mL) and snail mucus (65 ug/mL) ratio of 1:1, can increase lymphocyte proliferation optimally. This shows that snail mucus, chitosan and their combination in a 1:1 ratio are effective as BRM (Biological Response Modifier). It is hoped that the contribution of the results of this study can be further developed in the bioformulation of snail seromucoid preparations and chitosan as therapeutic agents for infectious diseases, including Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), Tuberculosis and other diseases.

Abstract

A fermented drink produced locally in the Sinjai area that is well known in the local community as well as widely is Minas. Minas, which means a typical Sinjai drink, used to be known as Irex. However, over time this drink was replaced with the name Minas because it was only produced in Sinjai City and used as a typical Sinjai drink has properties and benefits to increase body stamina due to fatigue after doing daily activities or work. Minas are made from cassava tapai, young coconut, eggs, coconut water, sugar water, honey, and milk and can be added with other fruits such as durian. Curved tape is a type of food produced from the fermentation process of substrates or carbohydrate foodstuffs using yeast yeast which belongs to the group of lactic acid bacteria. To determine the type of lactic acid bacteria that play a role in the fermentation process of minas drinks by isolating and identifying morphology using the gram staining method, biochemical tests using catalase tests, gas production and carbohydrate fermentation tests. Furthermore, molecular identification uses 16S RNA. The DNA sequencing results were analyzed with MEGA 6 software with the BLASTn algorithm at NCBI. Based on the results of the identification of lactic acid bacteria, homologous nucleotides were detected with the bacteria Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus and Streptococcus sp which are a group of lactic acid bacteria that are able to ferment carbohydrates to produce lactic acid.
