Abstract

The formation of nano extracts can increase the bioactivity of a compound in the body. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of a nano mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seed and ethanol extract of Mimosa pudica L leaves to reduce glucose levels in hyperglycemic rats, compared to an ethanolic extract mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seeds and Mimosa pudica L leaves. The size and zeta potential characterization of the ethanolic extract mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seed and Mimosa pudica L leaves was carried out using a Particle Size Analyzer (PSA). The results of characterization with PSA showed that the nanoparticle size of the ethanolic mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seeds and Mimosa pudica L leaves was 184.4 nm and the zeta potential value was -1.62 mV. The particle size obtained is in accordance with the herbal nano size, which is 50-300 nm. Identification of compounds in the ethanolic extract mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seed and Mimosa pudica L leaves by LC-MS/MS, found 7 compounds suspected of antihyperglycemia, namely phenylalanine, indole, 4-methoxy benzaldehyde, 2,5-dimethoxy benzaldehyde, apigenin, 2-flouren-9-ylidenemethyl-pyridine, and 5-Pentyl-1,3-benzenediol. The activity test results showed that the nano ethanol extract mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seed and Mimosa pudica L leaves was more effective in lowering blood glucose levels (79.29%) compared to the ethanolic extract mixture of Coriandrum sativum L seed and Mimosa pudica L leaves (50.88%).
