This research aimed to determine the effects of toxic white pomegranate fruit extract (Punica granatum L) against larvae of brine shrimp (Artemia salina Leach) indicated LC50 values below 1000 µg/ml. This study is purely experimental by using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT). The study was divided into seven groups, namely ethanol extract of white pomegranate fruit (Punica granatum L) with a concentration of 31,25; 62,5; 125; 250; 500; 1000 µg/ml and negative control (seawater). Mortality data percentage of Artemia salina Leach analyzed by probit analysis. Results showed that the extract of white pomegranate fruit extract (Punica Granatum L) has a toxic effect with LC50 values of 248,6 µg/ml calculate from probit analysis. From these results, it can conclude that white pomegranate extract is toxic to larval shrimp (Artemia salina Leach) with Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method which means white pomegranate extract has the potential to be an anticancer drug.

Abstract: Acorus sp (red sweet flag) is an endemic plant from West Borneo which contains chemical substances such as flavonoids that have bioactivity as antioxidants so it is recommended one to prevent cancer. The study aimed to determine toxicity of n-Hexan extract and methanol red sweet flag rhizomes against Artemia salina Leach with Brine Shrimp Lethality Test method. This study was a type of quasi experimental design, sampling technique obtained by using purposive sampling. According to the study results, it can be seen than methanol extract from red sweet flag rhizomes give impact on the mortality average of Artemia salina Leach : concentration 100 µg/ml (51%), 250 µg/ml (75%), 500 µg/ml (92%), 750 µg/ml (96%) and 1000 µg/ml (99%). In addition, n-Hexan extract of red sweet flag rhizomes in 100 µg/ml (45%), 250 µg/ml (60%), 500 µg/ml (92%), 750 µg/ml (84%) and 1000 µg/ml (96%). It is reported based on probit analysis that LC50 of n-Hexan extract from red sweet flag rhizomes was 128.2921 µg/ml meanwhile methanol extract was 242.7169 µg/ml µg/ ml, thus in conclusion n-Hexan and methanol extract of red sweet flag rhizomes potentially cytotoxic to Artemia salina Leach larvae.Abstrak: Jeringau merah (Acorus sp) merupakan satu jenis tanaman endemik Kalimantan Barat memiliki kandungan kimia diantaranya flavonoidyang mempunyai bioaktivitas sebagai antioksidan sehingga sangat baik untuk pencegahan kanker.

ABSTRACTGuava is one of the plants that can traditionally be used for the treatment of diseases. Many kinds of guava, one of which is the Australian guava has the characteristics of roots, stems, leaves, dark red fruit. This study aims to determine the toxicity of the ethanol extract of Australian guava leaves (Psidium guajava L) using the BSLT (Brine Shrimp Lethality Test) method and determine the chemical content of Australian guava leaves (Psidium guajava L). The extract was made by the ultrasonic method using 96% ethanol solvent. Toxicity tests were carried out using 48-hour-old Artemia salina Leach shrimp larvae. The toxic effect of the extract was identified by the percentage of shrimp larvae mortality using probit analysis (LC50). From the research results, phytochemical content includes tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids and saponins, and flavonoid compounds have the highest content compared to the others. Research shows that the ethanol extract of Australian guava leaves is of a moderate category (LC50 441,977 ppm).Keywords :Australia guava leaves, BSLT, Artemia salina L, Ultrasonic

Toxicity test on red pomegranate has done, while in black pomegranate is not widely known. Black pomegranate peel (Granati Fructus Cortex) has some chemical ingredients such as saponins, flavonoids, tannins, and alkaloids. Alkaloids, saponins, and flavonoids are thought to be toxic at certain levels. This study aimed to determine the effects of toxic black pomegranate peel extract (Granati Fructus Cortex) against larvae of shrimp (Artemia salina Leach) indicated LC50 values below 1000 µg / ml. This study is purely experimental by using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT). The experiments divided into five groups, namely ethanol extract of black pomegranate peel (Granati Fructus Cortex) with a concentration of 100, 150, 200, 250 ppm, and negative control (seawater). Mortality data percentage of Artemia salina Leach analyzed by probit analysis. Results showed that the extract of black pomegranate peel (Granati Fructus Cortex) has a toxic effect on larvae of Artemia salina Leach with LC50 values of 114.090 µg/ml. From these results, it can conclude that black pomegranate peel extract has a potential acute toxic to larval shrimp (Artemia salina Leach) with Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method.

ABSTRACTBioactive compounds that are suspected of having anticancer activity are first tested for activity by means of a toxicity test. The purpose of this test is to obtain data on the ability of the activity of a bioactive compound to kill cells at small doses so as to obtain a lethal concentration or lethal data. These two measurements are often called LC50 or LD50, concentrations that can kill 50% of test animals. This study aims to test the cytotoxic activity of Thalassia hemprichii seagrass extract using the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method.The results of the study showed that the mortality of Artemia salina larvae was influenced by the concentration of the test, meaning that the higher the concentration the more test animals died. Furthermore, the results of the probit analysis contained the toxicity activity of bio active compounds from seagrasses where the LC50 was 3.95 mg / l. A substance is declared to have the potential for cytotoxic activity if it has a value of LC50 at concentrations <1000 ppm for extracts and at concentrations <30 ppm for a compound. Keywords: Cytotoxic Activity, Thalassia hemprichii, Brine shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT)

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui potensi ketoksikan akut dari ekstrak metanol, fraksi etil asetat dan fraksi air kulit batang ketapang laut (Terminalia catappa L.). Pengujian toksisitas akut dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode BSLT (Brine Shrimp Lethality Test) dan menggunakan analisis program untuk mengetahui nilai LC50 dari ekstrak dan fraksi. Hasil uji toksisitas akut menunjukan nilai LC50  dari ekstrak metanol, fraksi etil asetat dan fraksi air kulit batang ketapang laut (Terminalia catappa L. )  berturut-turut 247,997 ppm; 400,666 ppm dan 618,046 ppm. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa ekstrak metanol batang ketapang laut (Terminalia catappa L.) bersifat paling toksik dibandingkan fraksi etil asetat dan fraksi air.Kata kunci: Ekstrak, Fraksi, Terminalia catappa L., BSLT, Artemia salina LeachAbstractAcute toxicity is the ability of chemical (drug/drug ingredient) to cause damage to organisms in a relatively short time. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential for acute toxicity of methanol extract, ethyl acetate and water fractions of sea ketapang stem skin (Terminalia catappa L.). Acute toxicity testing was performed using the BSLT (Brine Shrimp Lethality Test) method and program analysis to determine the LC50 values of extracts and fractions. The results of the acute toxicity test showed the LC50 values of methanol extract, ethyl acetate and water fractions of the plant stem skin consecutively were 247,997 ppm; 400,666 ppm and 618,046 ppm. This shows that the methanol extract of sea ketapang stems (Terminalia catappa L.) is the most toxic compared to the ethyl acetate and the water fraction.Keywords: Extract, Fraction, Terminalia catappa L., BSLT, Artemia salina Leach
