"Kolesterol yang tinggi dalam darah merupakan faktor resiko dari aterosklerosis yang menyebabkan berbagai penyakit. Intervensi farmakologik utama untuk mengurangi kadar kolesterol ialah menghambat enzim HMG-KoA reduktase. Salah satu tanaman dari marga Garcinia, yakni Garcinia dulcis memiliki potensi sebagai aktivitas antikolesterol. Berdasarkan kemotaksonomi, Garcinia latissima Miq. diperkirakan juga mempunyai potensi aktivitas antikolesterol.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji penghambatan aktivitas HMG-KoA reduktase ekstrak air daging buah G.latissima dengan perbedaan durasi infusa, serta penetapan kadar flavonoid total dan fenol total pada ekstrak. Selain itu, simplisia daging buah G. latissima Miq. akan dibuat dalam bentuk teh dan dilakukan uji hedonis untuk mengetahui tingkat kesukaan masyarakat pada teh tersebut.Hasil uji menunjukkan ekstrak air daging buah G. latissima Miq 100 ppm dengan infusa selama 5, 10 dan 15 menit menghambat aktivitas enzim HMG-KoA reduktase berturut turut sebesar 11,32; 29,02; 13,03%. Ekstrak 10 menit dengan penghambatan enzim terbesar memiliki kadar flavonoid total sebesar 31,24 mg QE/gram ekstrak dan kadar fenol total sebesar 4,64 mg GAE/gram ekstrak. Sedangkan kesukaan masyarakat terhadap warna, aroma, rasa teh celup formula A buah G. latissima Miq. berturut turut sebesar 30; 30; 20% dan terhadap formula B berturut turut sebesar 40; 33,3; 50%.

High cholesterol in the blood is a risk factor of atherosclerosis that causes various diseases. The main pharmacologic intervention to reduce cholesterol levels is inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme. One of the genera of Garcinia, Garcinia dulcis, has potential as an anticholesterol. Based on chemotaxonomy, Garcinia latissima Miq. is also estimated to have a potency as anticholesterol.This study aims to test the inhibition activity of HMG-CoA reductase from mesocarp water extract of G.latissima with different duration of infusions, as well as determination of total flavonoid and total phenol content in the extract. In addition, the simplicia of the mesocarp of G. latissima Miq, will be made as herbal tea and a hedonic test is performed to find out the degree of liking for the tea.The test results showed inhibitory activity of 100 ppm G. latissima Miq. mesocarp water extract with infusion for 5, 10 and 15 minute repectively 11.32; 29.02; 13.03%. The 10 minute extract with the largest enzyme inhibition had total flavonoids content of 31.24 mg QE / gram extract and total phenol content of 4.64 mg GAE / gram extract. The result of hedonic test for the color, aroma, flavor of herbal tea formula A respectively 30; 30; 20% and formula B respectively for 40; 33.3; 50%."

"Salah satu terapi untuk mengatasi tinggi level kolesterol dengan menghambat enzim HMG-KoA reduktase pada biosintesis kolesterol. Penelitian sebelumnya pada hewan uji, ekstrak etanol Garcinia xanthochymus dapat menghambat peningkatan kolesterol.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji aktivitas penghambatan enzim HMG-KoA reduktase pada ekstrak air Garcinia xanthochymus, penetapan kadar flavonoid dan fenol total, pembuatan sediaan teh herbal dari simplisia yang sudah dikarakterisasi dan uji hedonis. Pengujian aktivitas penghambatan HMG-KoA reduktase secara enzimatis, penetapan kadar flavonoid total secara kolorimetri AlCl3 dan penetapan kadar fenol total dengan Folin-Ciocalteu.Hasil pengujian penghambatan enzim HMG-KoA reduktase tertinngi adalah ekstrak air 5 menit yaitu 46,45 4.1140. Hasil dari susut pengeringan memenuhi persyaratan < 10 sedangkan hasil kadar sari larut air 42,77 0,0255 , kadar sari larut etanol 45,52 0,0036, kadar abu total 10,77 0,0021, dan kadar abu tidak larut asam 4,42 0,002. Hasil penetapan kadar flavonoid total tertinggi adalah ekstrak 5 menit yaitu 24,213 mgQE/gr ekstrak.Hasil penetapan kadar fenol total tertinggi adalah ekstrak 15 menit yaitu 12,171 mgGAE/gr ekstrak. Hasil uji hedonis pada parameter warna,aroma, dan rasa, adanya perbedaan signifikan pada uji kesukaan rasa. Berdasarkan hasil penelitain ini ekstrak air memiliki aktivitas penghambatan yang kecil terhadap enzim HMG-KoA reduktase.

One of the therapies that can be used to treat high cholesterol levels is by inhibiting the enzyme HMG CoA reductase inhibitors on biosynthesis cholesterol. Previous research conducted with animal test, Garcinia xanthochymus can inhibit the increase in cholesterol.This research aims to test the inhibitory activity of the enzyme HMG Coa reductase on water extract of Garcinia xanthochymus, the determination of the levels of flavonoids and phenols, total manufacture of preparations of the herb tea simplisia already characterized and test the hedonist. Inhibitory activity of testing of HMG Coa reductase in enzimatis, the determination of the levels of total flavonoids in kolorimetri of AlCl3 and the determination of the levels of total phenols by Folin Ciocalteu.Results of testing the inhibition of the enzyme HMG CoA reductase inhibitors showed that the water extract of 5 minutes has the highest percent inhibition activity is 46.45 4.1140, Results of drying shrinkage meets the requirements of drying shrinkage meets the requirements of <10% while the yield levels ..."

"Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental dengan desain pre dan post test, untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsumsi jus tomat (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) terhadap kadar likopen plasma. Sampel darah dari 27 orang subyek penelitian dengan rata-rata usia 34,70 ± 5,74 tahun, mempunyai tingkat pendidikan menengah (85,2%), mengalami paparan langsung terhadap debu panas dalam pekerjaannya (40,74%) dan merokok jenis rokok kretek (77,78%), diberi perlakuan dengan jus tomat (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) yang telah diolah sebanyak 350 gram/hari selama 4 hari berturut-turut. Kadar likopen plasma diperiksa sebelum dan sesudah perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kadar likopen plasma setelah perlakuan mengalami peningkatan yang secara statistik bermakna. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa konsumsi jus tomat yang diolah dengan benar ternyata mampu meningkatkan kadar likopen plasma. (Med J Indones 2004; 13: 146-50)

The study was an experimental study with pre and post test design, to evaluate the effects of tomato juices (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) consumption on plasma lycopene level. Blood sample of 27 subjects with average age of 34.70 ± 5.74 years old, moderate education level (85.2%), experienced direct contact with working environmental pollutant (40.74%) and smoked kretek cigarettes (77.78%) were given treatment with 350 gram/day of tomato juices (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) which had been properly prepared for 4 consecutive days. The lycopene plasma level was examined before and after treatment. The findings showed that after treatment, the lycopene plasma level significantly increased. This showed that consumption of properly prepared of tomato juices will increase the lycopene plasma level. (Med J Indones 2004; 13: 146-50)"
