Abstract :
The aim of this study was to find out the effect of guava leaves (Psidium guajava L.) extract to maintaining total and differential count of leucocytes as innate immunity in mice (Mus musculus) exposed to heat stress. This study was using thirty mice divided into five groups of experiment, that were K(-), P0, P1, P2, and P3. All group of experiments except K(-), received heat stress exposure twice daily for 30 minute at temperature 39-40 oC with 15 minutes interval. P1, P2 and P3 were treated with oral administration of different dose of guava leaves extract. P1 received 4.028 mg/20 g BW/day guava leaves extract; P2 received 7.28 mg/20 g BW/day guava leaves extract; P3 received 8.445 mg/20 g BW/day guava leaves extract respectively. The extract given for 10 days and heat stress exposure given for the last three days. Total and differential count of leucocytes were measure on the last day of experiments after blood sample collected intra cardiac with inhalation anesthesia. Statistical analyses was done by one way ANOVA followed by Tukey Test. The result of the research showed there were significant differences (p<0.05) on total leucocytes neutrophilia and lymphocytes and there were no significant difference (p>0.05) on eosinophiles, basophiles, neutrophiles and monocytes. The conclusion of the treatment showed that P3 was the best group experiments that maintaining total leucocytes, neutrophiles and lymphocytes in mice exposed to heat stress.
