Abstract :
Urid acid is one of non-communicable diseases who became a public
health problem the world with prevalence increasing every year. Uric acid
disease in Indonesia based on Basic Health Research in 2013 amounted to 11.9%
based on health workers (nakes) and based on the diagnosis or symptoms of
24.7%. The prevalence of joint disease in Central Java in 2013 is 11.2% based on
health diagnosis and 25.5% based on diagnosis or symptoms. Bay leaf and celery
herbs are known to contain flavonoids. Flavonoids act as inhibitors of xanthine
oxidase enzyme which will lead to decreased uric acid production.
The research is an experimental study design with a pre and post test
randomized controlled group design. There are 8 groups, namely : normal
(Aquadest)l, negative (CMC-Na), positive (allopurinol), bay (SA), celery (SE),
SASE 75:25, SASE 50:50 and SASE 25:75. All groups of test animals, except the
normal group were given chicken liver juices 1x daily for 14 days, and were given
the treatment of test animals from day 7 to day 14. The data obtained were serum
uric acid level taken on day 0, day 7 and day 14 and be measured using the
method of enzymatic. The data obtained were tested using one-way ANOVA test
with 95% confidence level.
The combination of water extract bay leaf and ethanol extract celery
herb can decrease uric acid level significantly (p < 0,05). Dosages of optimal
from a combination of water extract bay leaf and ethanol extract of celery herb to
decrease uric acid level that is 50:50 SASE dosage with the average of 14 days
average 1,22 mg/dl.
