Ganoderma lucidum is polyporus fungi from Basidiomycetes which can be used as traditional medicines. Toxicity test with Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BST) method using Artemia salina was conducted to find out toxic effect of G.lucidum. An extract would have toxic effect if the LC50 < 1000 µg/ml. The aims of this experiment were to know about the toxicity level from G.lucidum with Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BST) method and determined the concentration of fruiting body extract of G.lucidum which had the best toxicity effect in LC50. There were two extraction methods used in this experiment, first one stage extraction and then multilevel extraction with hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol. Each solvent was made in 1000 ppm, 500 ppm, 250 ppm, and 125 ppm. This process was repeated for three times. This experiment used G.lucidum extract which was tested to A.salina and secunder compound metabolit test from the most toxic G. lucidum was done with phytochemical analysis. The result indicated that fruiting body extract from G.lucidum could kill A.salina because all extract was positively contained alkaloid and terpenoid but negatively contained flavonoid. Fruiting body extract from G.lucidum which had lowest LC50 wass ethyl asetat extract with one stage extraction in concentration 53,70 ppm and highest LC50 was ethanol extract with multilevel extraction in concentration 501,18 ppm.

Toxicity test and phytochemical screening of ant plant ethanol extract were done. The toxicity test was done by employing the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method. Sample of ant plant taken from the Aceh Besar forest have been extracted with ethanol. The sample was thenconcentrated using a rotary evaporator until a crude extract was obtained. The extract was tested by toxicity to larva Artemia salina L. Thetoxicity test for larvae Artemia salina Leach have been done by employing the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method at four concentrationlevels, i.e: 250 ppm, 125 ppm, 50 ppm, and 25 ppm. The result of the research showed that ethanol extract of ant plant Aceh had acute toxicityby LC value 61.11 ppm. The extract had identified were fenolik, saponin, steroid and terpenoid.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Key words: rine Shrimp Lethality Test, LC5050, Ant Plant, Aceh, Bphytochemical Screening

BY BRINE SHRIMP LETHALITY TEST’S METHOD (BSLT) ABSTRACT A research on the analysis of secondary metabolite compounds contained in the stem of  patah tulang (Euphorbia tirucalli L.) and its toxicity had been done. The analysis was performed through phytochemical screening of alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, steroids, saponins and tannins on extracts of fresh and dried stem of the plant. Toxicity of ethanol extract of the stem was determined using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method with Artemia salina Leach as bioindicator. Phytochemical screening showed positive results for flavonoids, tannins, and steroids and negative one for alkaloids, saponins, and triterpenoids. Toxicity data were obtained from Lethality Concentration 50 (LC50) calculation trhrough probit analysis using SPSS 20.0 software (for Windows operating systems). Toxicity test showed that ethanol extracts of the fresh and dried stem were cytotoxic with LC50 value of 7.994 ppm and 9.940 ppm, respectively.

Many natural products could serve as the starting point in the development of modern medicines because of their numerous biological and pharmacological activities. However, some of them are known to carry toxicological properties as well. In order to achieve a safe treatment with plant products, numerous research studies have recently been focused on both pharmacology and toxicity of medicinal plants. Moreover, these studies employed efforts for alternative biological assays. Brine Shrimp Lethality Assay is the most convenient system for monitoring biological activities of various plant species. This method is very useful for preliminary assessment of toxicity of the plant extracts. Rapidness, simplicity and low requirements are several advantages of this assay. However, several conditions need to be completed, especially in the means of standardized experimental conditions (temperature, pH of the medium, salinity, aeration and light). The toxicity of herbal extracts using this assay has been determined in a concentration range of 10, 100 and 1000 µg/ml of the examined herbal extract. Most toxicity studies which use the Brine Shrimp Lethality Assay determine the toxicity after 24 hours of exposure to the tested sample. The median lethal concentration (LC50) of the test samples is obtained by a plot of percentage of the dead shrimps against the logarithm of the sample concentration. LC50 values are estimated using a probit regression analysis and compared with either Meyer’s or Clarkson’s toxicity criteria. Furthermore, the positive correlation between Meyer’s toxicity scale for Artemia salina and Gosselin, Smith and Hodge’s toxicity scale for higher animal models confirmed that the Brine Shrimp Lethality Assay is an excellent predictive tool for the toxic potential of plant extracts in humans.

At Komering, South Sumatera tribe, tahongai leaves had been known to treat tumor, cancer, polyps, acne, and dysmenorrhea. The study of cytotoxic activity of tahongai bark and stem were done. This study aims to determine the cytotoxic activity of tahongai leaves extracts using BSLT method. Tahongai leaves were extracted using gradual maceration with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol 96%. Each extract was tested cytotoxic activity towards Artemia salina L. larvae. The yield of n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol extracts are 2,686%, 7,033%, and 7,933% respectively. Ethanol extract of tahongai leaves had the best cytotoxic activity with lethality value 76,667% at 500ppm.

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
