<p>Liver is an organ with complex metabolism. When the liver is inflamed, cellular immunity will defend against inflammatory agents by stimulating immune cells to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excessive ROS accumulation cause oxydative stress with increased  liver malondialdehyde (MDA) level. Some researches showed that purple sweet potato contain flavonoids (anthocyanins) that functioned as antioxydants. This study aimed to show the prophylactic effect of purple sweet potato extract to the liver MDA level of male Wistar rats induced by carrageenan.</p><p>This study used post-only control group method using 18 male Wistar rats divided into 3 groups: group of rats without treatment, group of rats induced by 0,1 ml of 1% carrageenan by intraplantar injection on day-8, and group of rats given with 872 mg/kgBW of purple sweet potato extract for 7 days and induced by 0,1 ml of 1% carrageenan. In the end of the study, the liver MDA levels were measured by Thio-Barbituric Acid method on each groups.</p><p>The results of One-Way ANOVA test showed there was no significant difference (p = 0,290) between group of rats without treatment (<em>x̅</em>= 207,50) and group of rats induced by carrageenan (<em>x̅</em>=233,17). Then, there is no significant difference (p = 0.978) between group of rats induced by carrageenan and group of rats given with prophylactic purple sweet potato extract and induced by carrageenan (<em>x̅</em>= 232,50).</p><p>The conclusion of this study is giving intraplantar injection of carrageenan can increase liver MDA level insignificantly and giving prophylactic purple sweet potato extract has an effect to decrease the liver MDA level of rats induced by carragenan insignificantly because it contains anthocyanins as antioxidants.</p><p> </p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Liver, <em>Ipomoea batatas</em> L., Malondialdehyde, Anthocyanins

An experiment was carried out to determine the effect of fermented purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L) skin in diets on feed and anthocyanin consumption, carcass characteristics antioxidant profile and meat texture of Bali duck.. Five  treatment diets were used in a completely randomized design (CRD) consisted of control diet A (diet without containing purple sweet potato skin), diet B containing 10% purple sweet potato skin, diet C containing 10% fermented purple sweet potato skin, diet D containing 20% purple sweet potato skin, diet E containing 20% fermented purple sweet potato skin.Each treatment consisted of four replications and each replicate had five ducks. The variables observed were feed and anthocyanin consumption,slaughter weight, carcass weight, carcass percentage, carcass physical composition,  meat antioxidant profile (capacity antioxidant (CA), malondialdehide (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Experiment results showed that diets with fermented or unfermented purple sweet potatoin diets treatments B, C, D, and E increased the anthocyanin  consumption,  slaughter weight, carcass weight, carcass percentage and meat percentage of duck carcass but decreased  their fat and skin. Fermented purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L) skin  in  C and E increased the antioxidant capacity(AC)  and superoxide dismutase (SOD) while  treatment B and  D were not significantly different (P>0.05) to the control group.  Malondialdehide (MDA) of the duck meat in treatment B,C, and D were significantly lower (P<0.05) compared to the control diet. Treatment E significantly  increased the perimesium and endomesium of meat texture , but its experiment was not significantly different to the control group. It was concluded that substitution of fermented purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L) skin in diets could improve of feed and anthocyanin, carcass characteristics, antioxidant profile, and meat texture of bali duck.

BACKGROUND: Purple sweet potato (Ipomoea Batatas L.) is one of the sources for anthocyanin, which promotes the health through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, neuroprotection, and anti-apoptosis activities. Oxidative stress has been shown to be the cause of apoptosis in ischemic stroke. AIM: The objective of this research was to delineate the pleiotropic effects of anthocyanin for neuroprotection during an acute stroke event. METHODS: Anthocyanin was extracted from Balinese cultivar of purple sweet potato and subsequently administered to rat models of induced ischemic stroke (labelled as treatment group), as well as a placebo (labelled as a control group). Several parameters were in turn evaluated, i.e. the activities of anti-apoptotic (Bcl-2) as well as pro-apoptotic (cytochrome c, caspase-3) molecules, and apoptosis rate. Bcl-2 levels were determined using the histochemical method, cytochrome c and caspase-3 via ELISA method, while apoptosis rate was measured by TdT-medicated Dutp-Nick End Labeling (TUNEL) assay. RESULTS: Bcl-2 expression demonstrated significantly higher Bcl-2 expression in the treatment compared with control group (median 31.2 vs. 1.1; p = 0.001). Accordingly, pro-apoptotic cytochrome c and caspase-3 levels were also found significantly lower in the treatment as opposed to control group (mean 4.17 vs. 8.06; p = 0.001; mean 3.81 vs. 8.02; p = 0.001). Ultimately, apoptosis rate was found markedly lower among treatment than control groups (mean 3.81 vs. control 21.97; p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicated a significant neuroprotective effect of anthocyanin derived from Balinese cultivar of PSP. Anthocyanin was able to increase and reduce anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic protein levels, respectively, resulting in lesser cellular apoptotic rate when compared with placebo. The potential mechanism was thought mainly due to its anti-oxidant properties.

Using vitamin C or ascorbic acid as corrosion inhibitor has several weakness. In its liquid form ascorbic acid is easily oxidized and its anti oxidant properties unstable due to heat, light, oxidizer, dissolved oxygen and heavy metals. Purple sweet potato (ipomoea batatas L) with its high anthocyanin is one of alternative for green corrosion inhibitor. Extract of purple sweet potato has the ability to hold the enzyme reaction and oxidation proses of ascorbic acid. Purple sweet potato extract mixed with ascorbid acid is used as inhibitor of API 5L steel in 3.5%NaCl. This compound is classifid as mixed type inhibitor. The adding of purple sweet potato extract will assist ascorbic acid to maintance its inhibition efficiency and increases surface layer corrosion resistant of steel. Polarization methods and electrocehmical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are used to investigate corrosion rate and mechanism of the steel. Appliaction of 4 ml purple sweet potato mixed with 10-4M ascorbic acid inhibitor increases inhibition ability of API 5L steel from 23.5 to 57.52%. Purple sweet potato extract moves polarization curve to lower potential (below 82 mVolt) with tends to be more negative.

Hypercholesterolemia is still a health problem today because it is associated with the onset of cardiovascular disorders with various complications. High cholesterol levels carried by the blood will accumulate in the arteries that cause atherosclerosis. Blood clots and blockage of blood vessels can result in the stroke or heart attack. Flavonoids that are found in purple sweet potato leaves are quercetin. Quercetin has antioxidant effects that can improve blood vessel endothelial function, reduce LDL sensitivity to free radical effects, and reduce blood lipid levels. This study aims to determine the effect of ethanol extract of purple sweet potato leaves on LDL cholesterol level of hypercholesterolemia rat. The experiment was conducted experimentally using 2 groups of Wistar rats (each group consisting of 5 tails), namely the control group and the treatment group. Induction of hypercholesterolemia was performed with a high-fat diet for 7 days. The purple sweet potato ethanol extract was administered sonde in the treatment group with a quercetin dose of 2 mg /kg/day for 14 days and the measurement of LDL cholesterol was performed on days 10 and 24 by the CHOD-PAP method. Data were analyzed by Paired t-test. The results showed that LDL cholesterol level in the treatment group showed that 5 mice had decreased, the mean decrease of 32,49 mg/dl while control group 3 decreasing, mean 0,65 mg /dl. There was a significant difference (p <0.05) on changes in LDL cholesterol levels in the treatment group. Provision of purple sweet potato ethanol extract with quercetin dose of 2 mg/kg for 14 days can decrease LDL cholesterol level of hypercholesterolemia rat. From the results of this study is expected to optimize the utilization of purple sweet potato leaves (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) as a drug for lowering LDL cholesterol.
