Background: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age that is often accompanied by insulin resistance. Purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is known to contain anthocyanins and flavonoids that function as antidiabetics. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of purple sweet potato extract on insulin resistance in a PCOS mouse model base…
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder characterized by an imbalance of LH and FSH hormones, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia, which increase the risk of metabolic complications. Purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L. Poir) is known to contain anthocyanins and flavonoids with antioxidant properties that contribute to improving lipid profiles. This study aims to evaluate …
Purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a major food crop throughout the world and is widely recognized in Indonesia. Purple sweet potato has the potential to be used as an antibacterial agent to overcome infections caused by Staphyloccus aureus (S. aureus). Therefore, a study was performed with the aim of determining the effectiveness of purple sweet potato extract (Ipomoea batatas L.) aga…

Free radical can trigger chain reactions that cause damage to cell-forming particles that can have an impact on health. One of the plants that has the potential as a source of antioxidants is purple sweet potato leaves (Ipomoea batatas L. Poir) which contains a secondary metalbolite component with antioxidant effectiveness relatively higher than tocopherol. This study aims to determine the Anti…
Purple sweet potato leaves (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the traditional medicinal plants that needs to know the safety level of its use, one of which is by subchronic toxicity test. This study was conducted to determine the toxic effects of the n-hexane fraction of I. batatas leaves on wistar male white rats. Parameters observed included body weight, hematological examination, blood biochemis…

The research was conducted at Chemical Laboratory of Agricultural Product, Agricultural Technology Department, Agricultural Faculty, Sriwijaya University, from December 2011 to May 2013. The research was designed with factorial randomized blo…
This study aims to determine the antioxidant activity of purple sweet potato leaf ethanol fraction against decreased levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) blood plasma and mouse pancreas in vivo by TBARS method. The ethanol fraction of purple sweet potato leaves is obtained using a multilevel maceration method using n-hexane solvent, ethyl acetate and ethanol 96%. The test animals were grouped into 6…
The aims of this study are to determine the antioxidant activity of purple sweet potato leaves in inhibiting lipid peroxidation of blood and pancreas in rats. The solvent used is n-hexane, which is non polar solvent. The test of antioxidant activity using TBARS method by measuring the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) plasma and pancreas induced by alloxan 150 mg/kg BW. The test animals were grou…
Free radicals can cause oxidative stress, due to an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants that have the potential to cause cell damage. The results of phytochemical screening showed that the ethyl acetate fraction of purple sweet potato leaves contained secondary metabolites such as flavonoids and tannins which have antioxidant properties. The purpose of this study was to determine the ch…
Diabetes melitus merupakan suatu penyakit atau gangguan metabolisme kronis yang ditandai dengan tingginya kadar gula darah disertai dengan gangguan metabolisme karbohidrat, lipid, dan protein. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui persen kadar glukosa darah sebagai indikator efektivitas penurunan glukosa darah dari ekstrak etanol daun Ipomoea batatas L. Poir, mengetahui dosis efektif 50 (ED…
Diabetes melitus adalah suatu penyakit yang disebabkan oleh terganggunya metabolisme sehingga kadar glukosa darah menjadi meningkat. Penelitian mengenai aktivitas antidiabetes ekstrak etil asetat daun ubi jalar ungu (Ipomoea batatas L. Poir) terhadap tikus putih jantan galur Wistar yang diinduksi aloksan telah dilakukan. Daun ubi jalar ungu mengandung flavonoid yang dapat berpotensi sebagai ant…
Diabetes mellitus tipe 1 disebabkan oleh proses autoimun yang merusak sel β pankreas akibatnya produksi insulin berkurang bahkan terhenti. Ubi jalar ungu (Ipomoea batatas L. Poir) merupakan salah satu tanaman yang dapat digunakan secara tradisional sebagai antidiabetes. Daun ubi jalar ungu diekstraksi dengan pelarut n-heksana menggunakan metode maserasi. Ekstrak n-heksana daun ubi jalar ungu m…
Daun ubi jalar ungu (Ipomoea batatas L. Poir) mengandung flavonoid yang berpotensi memiliki aktivitas hepatoprotektor dan perlu dibuktikan aktivitasnya.
