Abstract

Methanol is an effective menstruum for attracting compounds with various pharmacological activities from Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav. Several studies reported that laboratory tests for reducing blood sugar content of red betel extract such as aqueous, ethanolic, and ethyl acetate extracts. This study aimed to investigate the actions of red betel leaves methanolic extract in reducing α-amylase and α-glucosidase in an in-vitro study. The test for decreasing the actions of the enzymes was done using the ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometric method. The test was run by observing carbohydrates left by knowing the effect of iodine-iodide resulting in a blue complex. The red betel leaves extract demonstrated an adequate α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity as shown by the IC50 of 8.463 ± 0.318 mg/mL and 10.013 ± 0.070 mg/mL, respectively.
