The Anova result showed that amount of erythrocytes from rats that were given DL extracts at 500 mg/kg BW
and 250 mg/kg BW dosages and TIR at 250 mg/kgBW had anti anemia activity. The average percentages of
erythrocytes number enhancement for DL extract 500 mg/kgBW dosage and 250 mg/kg BW, TIR extract 500
mg/kgBW were 17.24%, 11.37%, 10.27%, respectively.

Groups Hhematocrits level (%) Enhancement (%)
I 46.03
II (DL-1) 48.30 4.93
III (DL-2) 51.08 12.2
IV (TIR-1) 47.08 2.28
V (TIR-2) 49.80 8.19
VI 49.70
Figure 3. Dewa leaves (DL) and temu ireng rhizome (TIR) activity on hematocrits level.
The highest percentages of hematocrits level enhancement was given by dewa leaves extract at dose of 500
mg/kgBW (10,97%). However the increase is still below 20%, suggesting that the extracts treatment will not trigger
plasma leakage.
4. Conclusion
Temu ireng rhizome at 500 mg/kg BW and 250 mg/kg BW dosages and dewa leaves at dosages 250 mg/kgBW
shows anti thrombocytopenia and anti anemia activities. Temu ireng rhizome extract gives better anti
thrombocytopenia activity than dewa leaves extract, therefore it’s potential to be developed as medicinal herb for
revealing dengue symptoms
