Banana peels extract (Musa Paradisiaca Var Kepok) Decreased MDA in New Zealand White Rabbit With DM Hyperlipidemia

Abstract

The incidence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is increasing over the year. The drugs of DM cause side effects on an organ and heart. The pathological process of DM hyperlipidemia begins with oxidative stress. It is necessary to think about preventing hyperlipidemia in DM by using herbs as herbal medicines. This study aims to find out the effect of peel extracts of Musa Paradisiaca var. kepok to New Zealand White rabbits with hyperlipidemic in DM. The banana peel extract was obtained from the traditional market in Demak, Central Java. Banana peel extraction used maceration with ethanol extract. This study used 27 New Zealand White male rabbits, aged 4 months, with 1.5-2 kg average weights. The sample of the study was divided into three groups. Treatment group 1 (P1), Treatment group 2 (P2) and control group (K). All groups had standard feed and High Fructose Fat Diet (HFFD). Group P1 was given banana peel extract dose of 200 mg/kg body weight/day and group P2was given banana peel extract dose of 400 mg/kg body weight/day and group K was not given banana peel extract. This was an experimental laboratory research with the randomized pretest-posttest control design. The research data were taken three times; pretest, day 45 and day 104. This research was conducted for 104 days at UGM LPPT of unit 4 which has been internationally standardized. MDA levels were measured by the HPLC. The results of the pretest levels of MDA 0, 627, day 45 p = 0.232, day 104 p = 0.028. Ethanol extract of Musa Paradisiaca var. kapok prevents oxidative stress of New Zealand White rabbits with Diabetic Hyperlipidemia.
