Abstract

Karamunting leaves (Rhodomyrtus tomentosa (Aiton) Hassk.) is a plant that is widely found in areas in Indonesia which has potential as an antioxidant so that it is the basis for the purpose of this study to see the toxicity effect of karamunting leaf extract. Extraction was carried out by maceration method using 3 types of solvents with different levels of polarity, namely ethanol (polar), ethyl acetate (semipolar) and n-hexane (nonpolar) against shrimp larvae (Artemia salina L.) using the BSLT method. Toxicity test using the BSLT method with Artemia salina L. bioindicator. The results obtained were analyzed by analysis to determine the value of Lethal Concerationt 50 (LC50). 10; 15; 20; and 25 µg / mL. Based on the results of observations and data analysis, it was found that the ethanol extract of karamunting leaves had a moderate toxic effect with the highest LC50 value, namely 70% ethanol extract of 11.55 µg / mL, ethyl acetate extract of 12.44 µg / mL and n-hexane extract. Karamounting to 15.77 µg / mL. Based on the results of this study indicate that the three extracts are included in the strong toxicity category with a range of 0–100 ppm.
