Mercury levels required by Decree of Minister of Health RI No: 55 / Menkes / SK / I / 2000 and Regulation of Head of BPOM RI. 12 of 2014 on Traditional Medicinal Quality Requirements is ? 0.5 ppm. . This study aims to determine the levels of mercury contained in sarang semut extract (Myrmecodia pendans) fraction of water / n-butanol.Water fraction of sarang semut extract (Myrmecodia pendans) can suppress tumor cell proliferation. The mercury content was analyzed using a UV-Visible Spectrophotometer with rhodamine B reagent as a compound. The result showed that the average mercury content of sarang semut extract (Myrmecodia pendans) of water / n-butanol was 29,4031 ppm with% KV 0,34%. Metal contamination of mercury in sarang semut extract (Myrmecodia pendans) does not meet the requirements of traditional medicinal plants.} }
