Abstract

Male reproductive ability ability has a linear correlation with libido and testosterone. Both are associated with various things main food consumption such as protein, vitamins and minerals. Aphrodisiac is an ingredient or drug that arouses sexual arousal or libido. Pumpkin is an example of food from plants with the highest content of zinc. This study was to determine whether there is a difference between the content of zinc on the peel, flesh and pumpkin seeds against sexual activity of mice. The experimental animals used were 24 male, group I mice as control group, Group II was grouped with pumpkin peel extract, Group III was grouped with extract of pumpkin flesh, Group IV was grouped with extract of pumpkin seeds. The dose used is 2gr / kg BB and volume of 0.2 ml is given for 35 days. Sexual Activity is observed every day by the position of male mice riding females. Based on Anova One Way test results showed there are differences in sexual activity mice males in each group (ρ 0.000). The difference of the result of the number of mounts indicated that the giving of yellow pumpkin extract had an effect on the increase of mating behavior of male mice. The group treated with the extract of pumpkin flesh showed the highest number of mice mounts (mean = 24,1667.Further research is needed to get a clearer picture of the composition of the pumpkin nutrients that indirectly affect fertility in men.

Abstract

Aspartame has a lower calorie rating than other sweeteners. for example, cyclamate, lactose, saccharin, fructose and maltosa. Although it has low calorie, aspartame have 60 times sweeter than sugar (sucrose). Induction of aspartame can cause elevated levels of blood glucose and damage to the pancreatic β cells of mice. The purpose of this study was to analyze the dosing of aspartame levels; 13 mg/Kg body weight, 39 mg/Kg and 78 mg/Kg and those effect to the levels of glucose, cholesterol and haemoglobin of female mice (Mus musculus). The methode of research laboratory experiments using a complete randomized design (RAL). This study was using 24 mice with 4 treatment groups. Mice were given aspartame during surgical treatment, mice were made to perform measurement of Hb levels, glucose levels and cholesterol levels of neonatal mice. Data analysis using the Kruskal Wallis because Gaussian data but not homogeneous. The results showed an increase in the levels of glucose and cholesterol levels, but statistically there is no difference in glucose levels (p = 0,087), Hb (p = 0,899) and cholesterol (p = 0,168) in mice (Mus musculus) who were given variations of the dose of aspartame.

Abstract

Daun jambu air (Syzygium aqueum) dikenal sebagai salah satu obat tradisional, untuk menyembuhkan beberapa infeksi akibat antigen berupa bakteri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kandungan senyawa aktif yang terdapat dalam daun jambu air dengan beberapa pelarut pada proses maserasi. Metode ekstraksi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah ekstraksi dingin berupa maserasi dengan pemilihan pelarut yakni metanol (CH3OH), etil asetat dan n-heksana. Uji fitokimia yang dilakukan adalah uji saponin, flavonoid, alkaloid dan triterpenoid/steroid. Dari uji yang dilakukan diketahui sampel ekstrak daun jambu air dengan pelarut metanol positif mengandung beberapa senyawa aktif berupa flavonoid, saponin, alkaloid dan triterpenoid. Ekstrak daun jambu air dengan pelarut etil asetat dan n-heksana positif mengandung beberapa senyawa aktif berupa flavonoid, alkaloid dan triterpenoid. Pelarut yang paling bagus untuk mendapatkan banyak senyawa aktif adalah metanol. Kata kunci : Jambu air (Syzygium aqueum), maserasi, senyawa aktif
