Urb., known as Bawang Dayak, is commonly found growing in Kalimantan, Indonesia. The characteristics of the environment in which the plant grows greatly influence the characteristics of the plant and its biological activity. Objective: This study aimed to determine the pharmacognostic profile and evaluate the antidiabetic activity of E. bulbosa bulb extract obtained from Kota Bangun, Kutai Kertanegara, Indonesia. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The dried powdered of E. bulbosa bulbs was extracted using two different methods (maceration and microwave-assisted extraction). The evaluation of the sample fluorescence and non-specific parameters was done. The antidiabetic activity of the extracts was conducted using streptozocin-induced mice and histopathology analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The fluorescence evaluation indicated various secondary metabolites contained in E. bulbosa simplicia. Non-specific parameters include drying loss (8.83±0.2611%), water content in simplicia (8.04±0.7481%), specific gravity (1.04±0.0058%), total ash content (20.3±0.1583%), acid insoluble ash content (1.70±0.0608%), ethanol content in extract (0.99±0.0017%), lead content (0.010 mg/g), cadmium (0.091 mg/g), Arsenic (0.0003 mg/g), aflatoxin (not detected), and mold/yeast (0.8 × 105 colonies/g) meet the established regulations. Meanwhile, the antidiabetic assay showed that both extracts decreased the blood glucose levels in mice during the 14 days of treatments in a dose-dependent manner. This activity is correlated with the increased repair of pancreatic beta cells as observed by histopathological analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The dried bulbs of E. bulbosa obtained from Kota Bangun, Kutai Kertanegara, East Kalimantan, Indonesia meet the standards set as raw materials for antidiabetic herbal medicines.&lt;/p&gt;

Thus it can be used as a source of medicinal raw materials. &lt;em&gt;Piper betle&lt;/em&gt; var. nigra simplicia and extracts must be controlled to obtain unswerving quality and ensure their pharmacological effects by standardizing them through several specific and non-specific parameters. Specific parameters were analyzed organoleptically in the ethanol extract, namely having a thick consistency, brownish-green or blackish-green color, a mild peculiar odor, a bitter, cherish taste, and a slightly spicy flavor. The microscopic simplicia powder profile is as follows: the lower epidermis with idioblasts in oil cells contour and upper epidermis, sclerenchyma, covering hairs, and transport bundles ladder-type thickening, and idioblasts in oil cells contour. Extract content analysis of simplicia and black betle leaves ethanol extract showed water-soluble extract content of 2.77% and 12.45% and ethanolsoluble extract content of 1.38% and 19.1%. Secondary metabolites in the ethanol extract are flavonoids, polyphenols, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, and steroids. The non-specific parameters of the simplicia and extract are as follows; total ash content of 12.1% and 7.43%; acid insoluble ash content of 4.45% and 1.57%; drying shrinkage of 14.5% and 15.85%; total lead (Pb) contamination 47.5 ppm and 1.2 ppm; and the total cadmium (Cd) contamination &amp;lt;0.2 ppm. The total bacterial contamination in the extract was 4.3x105 colonies/g. The total yeast contamination was 8.3x105 colonies/g and volumetric mass density of the water-soluble extract of 0.96 g/mL and the volumetric mass density of the ethanol-soluble extract of 1.01 g/mL.&lt;/p&gt;

Havil (&lt;em&gt;Rubiaceae&lt;/em&gt; family) is a native of East Kalimantan, which is traditionally used as an herb to treat headaches and inflammation by drinking boiled water a few leaves. On the other hand, this plant has an addictive effect. This study aims to determine the single factor effect of NADES citric acid–glucose-based microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) to obtain the yield of total polyphenols content (TPC) from &lt;em&gt;M. speciosa&lt;/em&gt; leaves. Dried powder of &lt;em&gt;M. speciosa&lt;/em&gt; leaves was extracted using NADES citric acid-glucose based MAE method with some different conditions such as NADES (citric acid-glucose) ratio (4:1, 5:1, 6:1 g/g), solid-liquid ratio (10:1, 15:1, 20:1 mL/g), microwave power (90, 270, 450 Watts), and extraction time (15, 20, 25 min). The determination of TPC was performed using Folin-Ciocalteau reagent and gallic acid as a standard with different concentration levels. The absorbance measured using spectrophotometer UV-VIS at 746 nm to obtain a regression formula of Y = 0.0022X–0.00095, where R&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.9977. Based on the result, the best of single factor condition effect was obtained the TPC value including NADES ratio of 248.69 mg GAE/g sample (5:1 g/g citric acid-glucose), a solid-liquid ratio of 146.93 mg GAE/g sample (15:1 mL/g solvent-sample), microwave power of 192.20 mg GAE/g sample (270 Watts), and extraction time of 358.59 mg GAE/g sample (15 min). The single factor effect of NADES citric acid-glucose-based MAE shows a difference in TPC value based on various conditions of this method.&lt;/p&gt;

Merr; Synonym: &lt;em&gt;Eleutherine americana&lt;/em&gt; L. Merr) from family Iridaceae is widely found and grown in Kalimantan island. The local tribe &amp;ldquo;Dayak&amp;rdquo; commonly consume this plant and become a traded commodity in traditional markets. This plant is trusted to treat various diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study aims to determine the effect of blood glucose reduction from bulbs of Bawang Dayak based on the use of different extraction methods using oral glucose tolerance test. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Dried sample was extracted with methanol using maceration, reflux, and Soxhlet method, respectively. The measurement of blood glucose reduction was performed using oral glucose tolerance test &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; method and was analyzed using statistical comparison (Two-Way-ANOVA). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on the each extraction results was obtained yields of as 8.636% (reflux method), 11.87% (maceration method), and 14.023% (soxhlet method). While the results of blood glucose lowering effect on each extract were used, there were significant differences in statistical tests and organ index. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This result is a preliminary stage and the information is invaluable for further research.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">49</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Islamudin Ahmad&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Neneng Siti Silfi Ambarwati&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Niken Indriyanti&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Yurika Sastyarina&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Laode Rijai&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Abdul Mun&amp;rsquo;im&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The scientific data from the plant is still very limited. The aims of the present study was to know a pharmacognostic, and cytotoxicity of &lt;em&gt;P. acre&lt;/em&gt; Blume leaf. The macroscopic characters showed that the leaves have a characteristic odor, heart-shaped, margin was finely flat, venation was curved, the upper surface was dark green and slippery while the lower surface was pale green and soft. The microscopic characters revealed upper and lower epidermis cells, glandular trichomes, concentric vascular bundle, paracytic stomata. The fluorescence characteristics showed a variety of chemical constituents present in the plant materials. The preliminary phytochemical investigation of various extracts showed the presence of alkaloid, flavonoid, saponin, terpenoid, tannin, carotenoid, and steroid. The physicochemical properties (yield, color, consistency) of the n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol extract were 31.57% w/w (green concentrated solid), 13,59% w/w (green concentrated solid), and 16.35% w/w (brownish green liquid). Based on the cytotoxicity using brine shrimp lethality assay of the n-hexane extract (2.46 &amp;mu;g/ml), ethyl acetate extract (0.925 &amp;mu;g/ml), and ethanol extract (5.741 &amp;mu;g/ml) showed that the extract had the cytotoxic activity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">400</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Islamudin Ahmad&lt;sup&gt;1,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Neneng Silfi Siti Ambarwati&lt;sup&gt;2,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Muhammad Arifuddin&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Laode Rijai&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Abdul Mun&amp;rsquo;im&lt;sup&gt;3 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
