Pasak bumi (PB) (Eurycoma longifolia Jack), is an Indonesian herb used as antimalarial. No research had been done before, of its effect on endogenous antioxidant enzyme. This study aims to investigate the antimalarial property of PB extract on the reduction of specific antioxidant enzyme. We used Plasmodium berghei infected mice, treated with: PB 30 (TI), 60 (TII), and 90 mg/kg BW (TIII), positive control (chloroquine 10 mg/kg BW) (KP), negative control (aquadest) (KN), normal mice control (K0). The parameters evaluated were: growth inhibition of parasite, carbonyl concentration, specific activity of SOD and CAT. Growth inhibition on day 7 of KP, TI, TII, and TIII were 69,81%, 39,37%, 41,72%, and 12,92%. Comparison of specific activity of plasma SOD and CAT showed insignificant differences between groups. Specific activity of liver SOD and liver CAT showed significant differences between groups. Carbonyl concentrations within groups of plasma and liver show insignificant differences. There is positive correlation between liver SOD with CAT specific activity (r = 0 690, p = 0 000), as well as negative correlation between liver SOD with paracytemia (r = −0 637, p = 0 000) and CAT specific activity with paracytemia (r = −0 557, p = 0 002). Therefore, the potential use of PB as an antimalarial was of doubtful effectiveness due to its antioxidant effect which could benefit the parasite.
