A recent research conducted at the Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) shows that the roots of plants of the earth peg (Eurycoma longifolia) has properties to protect the liver from damage. During this time, the public trust hereditary pegs earth as ingredients to enhance male sexual arousal. Moreover, people also use the pegs of the earth as a tonic for new mothers who give birth, treatment of swollen glands, fever, and dysentery.
But now the roots of the earth peg proved his usefulness by Ruqiah Double Princess Panjaitan, student S3 Biology Study Program Graduate School of IPB in his research entitled "Testing Activity hepatoprotector pegs Roots of the Earth. In this research, herb root extract earth pegs its effectiveness was tested against rat liver function in animals.
"The results of scientific research shows the earth peg efficacious in sexual dysfunction, antimalarial, and cytotoxic (cell poisoning). While the investigation of the influence of the earth peg protects the liver from damage has not been much done, "said Ruqiah.
In his research, Ruqiah spend 12.5 kilograms of dry earth peg roots. Root dry earth pegs mashed into powder and extracted with methanol solution of 50 percent. Then, repeatedly partitioned with n-hexane, concentrated by vacuum rotary evaporator.
The result of this partition is still through the process a few steps again, until the extract was expected. Indonesian native plant extract is then tested on male Sprague Dawley rats aged 2-3 months. Previously, all rats were given carbon tetrachloride with a dose of 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 milliliters per kilogram.
Carbon tetrachloride is toxic liver and cause necrosis (cell damage) mice. Animal experiments were divided into three groups, each group consists of three tails. The first group, rats were given distilled water. The second group, mice given "Silybum marianum". The third group, rats given the extract of the roots of the earth peg. Treatment of these mice went on for three months.
In granting the earth peg root extract dose of 500 milligrams per kilogram of body weight did not result in changes in liver enzyme levels, the enzyme "aspartate transaminase, the enzyme" alanine Aminotransferaz ", and" Alkalenfosfataz ", total protein, total bilirubin, director and indurek.
This illustration shows the overall liver cells were unchanged. Dose of methanol fraction of Earth's water peg roots then raised to 1,000 milliliters per kilogram of body weight. At this dose, the root extract showed activity hepatoprotector earth peg. This marked the levels of enzymes aspartate transaminase and alanine Aminotransferaz still within the normal range. In addition, histopathologic picture (tissue exposed to the disease) was comparable to the granting of silymarin.
Silybum marianum (Milk Thistle) is a type of plant is known as hepatoprotector peranannay. Therefore, in this study using Silybum marianum Ruqiah as a comparison. The plant was reportedly able to protect the liver from various types of toxins, paracetamol, alcohol, carbon tetrachloride, D-galaktosamin, radiation, narrowing or blockage of blood vessels, liver and viral hepatitis exfoliation.
Is a kind of tree that grows dirimbunan low land forests of Southeast Asia. In Malaysia and Singapore peg earth known as "Tongkat Ali" and in Thailand called "Piak or Tung Saw." Since the first Earth pegs used for generations by people in the country as a traditional medicine to cure various kinds of diseases such as postpartum tonic, anti-microbial, anti-hypertensive, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, treatment of abdominal pain, ulcers, malaria, and the best known is as a powerful medicine man (an aphrodisiac). In Indonesia alone pegs Earth to grow in Borneo, it is no wonder then pegs the Earth become one of the most famous medicinal plant since ancient tribal communities in Kalimantan, such as banjo and Dayak. If you are visiting Borneo it will be very easy to find Earth pegs sold almost in every store craft items such as Garden Vegetable Kalimantan Balikpapan and Citra in Samarinda. Now pegs the Earth into a medicinal plant that became known in the world, a lot of research both within and outside the country are conducted to seek the truth or other properties of the roots of this tree. Even the Earth has called pegs efficacy of 4 times more powerful than Ginseng to increase levels of testosterone in the human body.

* Canthin compounds in plants of the earth pegs could inhibit cancer cell growth, eurycomanone derivative compounds as anti malaria. * Quassinoid compounds function as anti-leukemia, and prospectively for anti-HIV. * Compounds ethanol to function as an aphrodisiac.
The benefits are diverse causes of the earth many pegs are exported to foreign countries for the purposes of making herbal medicine.

According to physical properties, mechanical and durability, wood pegs the earth has a specific gravity of 0.65, durability class 4-5, and a strong class II. Timber class can be used for construction and furniture.
According to WHO, 80% more of the world population still rely on traditional medicine including the use of drugs derived from plants.
Megabiodiversity Indonesia is a country rich in medicinal plants, and the potential to be developed, but have not managed optimally. Plants in Indonesia's natural wealth includes 30,000 species of plants of a total of 40 000 plant species in the world, 940 species of them are medicinal plants (this amount represents 90% of medicinal plants in Asia).
Based on research results, of the many species of medicinal plants, only 20-22% is cultivated. While about 78% is obtained through direct collection (exploration) of forest. Potential of medicinal plants in Indonesia, including forest medicinal plants among others pegs the Earth, if well managed will be very beneficial in terms of economic, social, cultural and environmental.
