Abstract
This study aimed to determine the administration of a mixture of lemongrass ethanol extract (Cymbopogon citratus), ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.), pandan leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius), and cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmanii) against high fat-induced blood albumin and globulin levels of wistar rats. The method was carried out by dividing the mice with 7 treatment groups and 4 tests, including KO + (Groups given standard feed)- KO- (Controls fed with high-fat standard an feed)- K+ (Simvastatin-given controls),K1, K2, K3and K4 at a dosage of 100,200,300,and400 mg/Kg BB plant extract mixture of ginger, lemongrass, cinnamon and pandan leaves). The data was analyzed with SPSS software for windows. The results showed that giving a mixture of ethanol extracts of lemongrass plants, ginger, pandan leaves, and cinnamon affected the blood albumin and globulin levels of wistar rats. A significant increase was shown in K4 (400mg/Kg BB) with normal rat levels, namely for albumin 4.8 g/dL and globulins of 3.9 g/dL. With shapiro Wilk Normality Test analysis with sig 0.05, normal distributed data. The Test of Homogeneity of Variances obtained a calculated f value greater than the f table which showed that plant extracts have the potential to increase and stabilize albumin and globulin levels.
