Summary: | Indonesian tropical forests are community which has high biodiversity of
plants. Ground vegetation as one of the formers of the forest ecosystem is the
plants that have potential to inhibit cancer cell growth. Relationship among forest
components, including plants will interact each other to form an ecosystem with
unique characteristics and complex relationships. There are many biological
activities from chemical constituents of ground vegetation which is still not used
as research topic. Therefore, this potential should be utilized in humanity interests
and also used to preserving these plants by explore the potential of those to be
used as drug.
This research held in swamp forest area in Sentarum Lake National Park.
Research area is 5 ha, with 0.4 % sampling intensity, and plot area of 4 m2 so it
can be obtained 50 plots. Method used in this research is systematic sampling.
Parameters tested are density, frequency, importance value index and species
diversity. Anticancer bioactivity test of ground vegetation extract is done by
testing the cytotoxic activity to mortality of shrimp larvae using Brine Shrimp
Lethality Test (BSLT).
It is founded that from 60 ground vegetation which are found at research
area, 42 species of those are included in medicinal ground vegetation. Cytotoxic
test using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test method shows from 42 species medical
ground vegetation, there are 23 species which have potential in producing
cytotoxic with LC50 less than 1.000 ppm. Riang Bejid (Medinilla crassifolia) has
highest density, frequency, importance value index and Shannon diversity index
than others ground vegetation |
