THE EFFECT OF DRY RED JUJUBE FRUIT EXTRACT ON RATE ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE INDUCED WISTAR RATS ACETAMINOPHEN

Abstract

Background: Many things can cause hepatotoxicity, including the use of chemicals such as acetaminophen consumed in toxic doses. Acetaminophen destroyed can damage liver tissue, block the biliary tract and end the release of ALP into the blood. Jujube fruit has antioxidants like flavonoids and phenolic, which can ward off free radicals due to excessive consumption of acetaminophen. 

Purpose: Knowing how giving dried red jujube fruit extract affects ALP levels of induced Wistar rats acetaminophen. 

Method: The method used is Posttest-Only Control Group Design. The technique used in examining ALP levels is using a colorimetric test essay which refers to the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine. The experimental animals used were Wistar rats which were given dried red jujube fruit extract doses of 70, 140, and 280 mg/kg BW for ten days. On the 9th day, the rats have induced with an acetaminophen dose of 3 g/kg BW, and on the 11th day, termination was carried out to examine ALP levels in the blood. 

Results: In this study, the normality test was generally distributed with a value of K(-) = 0.086, K(+) = 0.600, Kp1 = 0.156, Kp2 = 0.074, and Kp3 = 0.446. In the homogeneity test, the value of p = 0.0254 was obtained. On testone-way ANOVA, significant results were obtained with a p = 0.00. In the correlation test, a matter of 0.00 was obtained, which means a relationship exists between dried red jujube fruit extract and ALP levels. 

Conclusion: Giving dried red jujube fruit extract has an effect on ALP levels in induced rats' acetaminophen toxic dose.
