Abstract

Research about phytochemical screening and antidiabetic activity inside rice leaf extract (phrynium
 capitatum) had been conducted. Objective of this research was to find phytochemical and antidiabetic activity
 inside rice leaf extract. Research Methodology used for phytochemical screening was testting of alkaloids,
 phenolics, flavonoids, saponins, steroids and triterpenoids. While antidiabetic activity testing was carried out on
 white rats induced by alloxan treatment. Based on phytochemical screening tests of rice leaf extract,
 components obtained are alkaloid compounds, flavonoids, phenolics and steroids. The results of testing the
 antidiabetic activity of rice leaf extract in alloxan induced mice by administering 100% rice leaf extract; 200 and
 300 mg / kg body weight of rats had a percent decrease in blood sugar concentration, respectively 29.01; 34.07
 and 42.03%. The most effective group providing antidibetic effect is the treatment group III (300 mg / kg body
 weight of rats) when compared to the treatment group I (100 mg / kg body weight of rats) and treatment group
 II (200 mg / kg body weight of rats).
