Galing plant (Cayratia trifolia L. Domin) is a wild plant that spreads and is easily found in Indonesia, especially in the lowlands, which contains a class of secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenoids, and triterpenoids with various pharmacological activities such as antidiabetic, immunomodulatory, antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-diarrhea, gout. This study aims to determine the antiinflammatory effect of several fractions of rod galing using the in vitro model of red blood cell membrane stabilization. This study used an ethanol extract fractionated in a liquid-liquid manner with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and water as a solvent. Then, the anti-inflammatory effect of each fraction was tested, with a positive control comparison of diclofenac sodium with varying concentrations. Measurement of anti-inflammatory activity was calculated based on the % stability of the red blood cell membrane. The results showed that the ethyl acetate, n-hexane and water fractions from the ethanol extract of galing (Cayratia trifolia L. Domin.) stem had an anti-inflammatory effect based on the % stability of red blood cell membranes, where the ethyl acetate fraction with a concentration of 1000 ppm had the best anti-inflammatory effect with % stability of red blood cell membranes was 91.81%, which was significantly different from the positive control (p<0.05).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
