Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is caused by the dengue virus which is transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Prevention of DHF can be done by using larvicides. Synthetic chemical larvicides are considered to have side effects in long-term use and can cause environmental pollution. So we need an alternative larvicides with natural ingredients from plants, namely Japanese Papaya plants. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Japanese Papaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius) leaf extract on the mortality of Aedes aegypti larvae. This type of research uses an experimental study design. This study used 6 treatments with 4 repetitions consisting of control without treatment, P1 (0.2%), P2 (0.4%), P3 (0.6%), P4 (0.8%), and P5 (1%). Observations were made for 48 hours. From the research results obtained LC50 of 1.095%. The results of statistical tests using One-Way ANOVA showed that there was a significant effect on the mortality of mosquito larvae.

Cardiovascular disease caused by hyperlipidemia is the highest case in term of fatality of non-infectious disease in Indonesia. Cnidoscolus chayamansa is well known as a herb that has nutraceutical potential for medicine and likely as a hypolipidemia agent. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the optimal dose of C. chayamansa as a candidate to treat cardiovascular diseases. A total of 30 white rats were acclimatized in the laboratory for 14 days. After that, the rats were grouped into six groups, randomly, which including a healthy control group (K0), a negative control group or hyperlipidemic rats (K-), a positive control group or hyperlipidemia-induced rats that was supplemented with atorvastatin (K+), then a hyperlipidemic rats treated with alcoholic extract of C. chayamansa leaves at doses of 100 mg /kgBB /day for K1, 200 mg/ kgBB/ day for K2 and 400 mg/ KgBB/ day for K3. The results showed that K3 treatment is the most effective and optimum dose for lowering total cholesterol level at 76.81±1.10 mg/dl, triglycerides 72.39±1.66 mg/dl and LDL-C at 21.47±0.58 mg/dl. The aortic histology assessment also showed that the K- group had putative thrombus or plaque in intima, and it was not found in other groups. This research focused on the optimum dose and new usage of C. chayamansa, as an anti-inflammatory in atherosclerosis. By understanding the optimum dose of C. chayamansa, the community can apply and control the herb consumption for their own therapeutic properties. For future application, the herb is potentially developed as anti-atherogenic medicine.

The corn tortilla is one of the most important pillars of power in Mexico. The tortilla chips are pieces of fried tortilla or toasted. They have a crunchy texture and are usually eaten with other foods. This paper focuses on assessing the level of liking of pozol tortilla chips added with chaya leaves (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius) and black nightshade (Solanum nigrum). Sensory evaluation was performed with 50 not-trained judges. We found that the level of liking of the natural tortilla chips was 4.9 ± 1.4 on a seven-point hedonic scale. This value corresponds to the range "I like or I dislike". The experimental tortilla chips obtained greater acceptance: the add-on with chaya 5.7 ± 1.2 and the supplemented with black nightshade, 5.7 ± 1.0, qualified as a "like" on the hedonic scale. By applying the average DMS test (P < 0.05), it was found that there is a significant difference between the experimental chips
