EFEKTIVITAS EKSTRAK BUAH PINANG MUDA (ARECA CATECHU L.) TERHADAP KEMATIAN LARVA AEDES SP
Abstract
Deman Berdarah Dengue adalah penyakit demam akut yang disebabkan virus dengue yang masuk ke peredaran darah manusia melalui gigitan nyamuk dari genus Aedes.Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus merupakan vektor utama penularan penyakit DBD. Pencegahan penyakit DBD dilakukan dengan memutus mata rantai penularan. Insektisida hayati terbukti berpotensi mengendalikan vektor. Penelitian ini diketahuinya efektivitas ekstrak buah pinang muda (Areca catechu L.) terhadap kematian larva nyamuk Aedes sp. Metode penelitian ini true eksperimen dengan rancangan Post Test Only Control Group Design. Penelitian menunjukkan presentase rata-rata kematian larva pada konsentrasi 2000 ppm sebesar 39,2%, konsentrasi 3000 ppm sebesar 72%, konsentrasi 4000 ppm sebesar 84,8% dan konsentrasi 5000 ppm sebesar 100%. Hasil Uji One Way Anova diperoleh p-value = 0,000 (p = < 0,05) sehingga dinyatakan ada perbedaan signifikan pada jumlah larva yang mati pada berbagai konsentrasi dan hasil Uji Bonferroni diperoleh konsentrasi yang paling efektif terhadap kematian larva nyamuk Aedes sp pada konsentrasi 5000 ppm. Diharapkan penelitian selanjutnya menemukan formulasi buah pinang muda yang lebih aplikatif sehingga penggunaannya lebih mudah dimasyarakat.
