Abstract

Hyperuricemia is an abnormally high level of uric acid in a blood. Binahong leaves (Anredera cordifolia
(Ten.) Steenis) is one of the plants traditionally used as an antihyperuricemic remedy. This study aims to
determine the ethanol 70% subfraction activity of binahong leaves on the uric acid level of male white mice.
Antihyperuricemia assay was conducted for 36 days by dividing 24 mice into six groups. There are normal
control who was given standard feed and Na CMC 0.5%, positive control was given purine and allopurinol
0.8 mg/20 g BW and the assay group was given a purine feed and binahong leaves subfraction SF 3 with a
dose of 1.83 mg/20gBW, 3.60 mg/20gBW, and 5.40 mg/20gBW. Blood sampling was conducted by orbital
sinus after 2 hours from induction of potassium oxonate. Blood sampling was measured with an enzymatic
method using a clinical spectrophotometer. The result showed that the third dose had no significant
difference to the positive control with a percentage of decrease of 56.6%. The conclusion is that binahong
leaves subfraction has the same activity as an antihyperuricemic agent with allopurinol at dose 5.40
mg/20gBW.
