- Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use the insulin it produces effectively. This condition results in an increase in glucose in the blood. Aloe vera contains chemicals that have hypoglycemic properties. This study aims to determine the effect of aloe vera juice on blood glucose levels of female white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by streptozotocin hyperglycemia. This study used a post test only control group design. The number of samples was 30 rats with a body weight of 150–200 mg and 2–3 months of age. Rats were divided into three groups, namely the negative control group, the positive control group and the treatment group. The dose of streptozotocin is 120mg/kgBW and aloe vera dose is 1.8 ml/200 gBW. Blood glucose measurements were carried out using a glucose meter. Data were analyzed by ANOVA test. The mean blood glucose level of the negative control rats was 60.70 ± 3.65 mg/dl, the positive control was 498.60 ± 89.77 mg/dl and the treatment was 77.4 ± 8.89 mg/dl. The results of the ANOVA test and post hoc test analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the average blood glucose levels in each group (ρ < 0.05). Aloe vera juice (Aloe vera) has an effect on reducing blood glucose levels of female white rats (Rattus norvegicus) with streptozotocin-induced hyperglycemia.
