Every human has uric acid, because uric acid is a normal substance in the body. When the level exceeds the normal limit value is called hyperuricemia. Continuous hyperuricemia without treatment will develop into gout. The prevalence of incidence of uric acid disease (hyperuricemia) is increasing from year to year, both in developed and developing countries. This study aims to determine the effect of decreased levels of uric acid in male white rat with ethanol extract of Semut Jepang (Tenebrio Sp). This research is an experimental research with pre test and post test with control group design. This study used 12 male rats which were randomly divided into 3 groups consisting of group I (negative control) were given aquadest, group II (treatment group) was given ethanol extract 2.3 mg / kgBB Japanese ants and group III ( positive controls) were given Allopurinol 27.15 mg / kgBW orally. The test animals were induced with potassium oxonate 300mg / kgBW for 6 days intraperitoneally for 6 days before treatment. The levels of uric acid of the test animals were measured using a uric acid strip test. The results of this study showed that ethanol extract of Semut Jepang (Tenebrio Sp) with a dosage of 2.3 mg / kgBW did not have the effect of decreasing uric acid levels in male white rats.
