Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the decrease in blood glucose levels using Muntingia calabura L. leaf extract in hyperglycemic rats. This study used a completely randomized design with six treatments and four replications. The experimental animal used 24 male rats (Rattus novergicus) aged 3 months, body weight 200-250 grams. Group P1 as a negative control was only given distilled water. All rats in the P2, P3, P4, P5, P6 groups were induced with a single dose of alloxan 75 mg/kg body weight. Groups P3, P4, P5 were given 150, 300 and 450 mg/kg body weight of Muntingia calabura L. leaf extract and P6 were given metformin (positive control) for 28 days. The results showed that the mean glucose levels at P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6 were 59.75 ± 7.67, respectively; 151.75 ± 17.03; 83.25 ± 26.46; 74.5 ± 25.27; 72.5 ± 31.77; 69.5 ± 7.04. Based on Anova, Muntingia calabura L. leaf extract had a very significant effect on the blood glucose levels of rats (P <0.01). It can be concluded that Muntingia calabura L. leaf extract 450 mg/kg BW can reduce blood glucose levels in hyperglycemic rats.
