Abstract :

This research was aimed to know the effect of pomegranate extract on the levels of sodium and potassium in the blood of white rats (Rattus norvegicus) with impaired nephrotoxicity by gentamycin-induced. 24 male rats 2-3 months old with 150-200 gram body weight were grouped into four different treatment for seven days followed: P0 group as a control group treated with CMC Na 0,3% and saline, P1 group treated with gentamycin and CMC Na 0,3%, P2 group treated with gentamycin and ellagic acid in CMC Na 0,3%, P3 group treated with gentamycin and pomegranate extract in CMC Na 0,3%. After seven days treatment, blood sample taken with intracardiac method. The levels of sodium and potassium in the blood were than measured using electrolyte analyzer with ion selective electrode method (ISE). Based on the result of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan test, sodium test showed P0 has the significant effect to P1 but not significant with P2 and P3, and potassium test showed no significant result. The pomegranate treated group (P3) gave the best value on the levels of  sodium and potassium in blood, it gave a good effect in preventing nephrotoxicity in white rat.
