Sungkai leaves (Peronema canescens Jack) are known to contain secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, which exhibit antioxidant activity and potential as hepatoprotective agents. This study aimed to evaluate the hepatoprotective activity of ethanol extract of sungkai leaves in male Wistar rats induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) based on SGOT and SGPT levels, as well as macroscopic and his…
Sungkai leaves (Peronema canescens Jack.) have potential as a raw material for herbal tea and as a natural source of antioxidants. This study aimed to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid contents, antioxidant activity, and quality parameters of sungkai leaf simplicia tea compared with gambir leaf tea, soursop leaf tea, and commercial tea. The samples were dried, ground, and brewed using …
The sungkai leaf (Peronema canescens jack.) is known to contain flavonoid compounds with potential diuretic properties. This study aimed to evaluate the diuretic activity of ethanolic extract from sungkai leaves through preclinical tests on experimental animals divided into six treatment groups. These groups consisted of a normal control (aquadest), a negative control (NaCMC), a positive contro…
The grasshopper has a tendency to eat plant leaves, causing physical damage such as tears in the leaves, and can even cause the loss of all leaves. One way to deal with the presence of locusts is by using sungkai leaf bioinsecticide (Peronema canescens) which contains poison for locusts. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sungkai leaf extract and the optimal concentration …
Research has been conducted on the antibacterial power of Sungkai leaf extract (Peronema canescens Jack.) against Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. This study aims to obtain information on the effect of the ethanol extract of Sungkai leaves (P. canescens) on P. aeruginosa bacteria and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the ethanol extract of Sungkai leaves (P. canescens) on P. aerugin…
