Abstract

Amaranthus spinosus L (Amaranthaceae) has long been used by Indonesian people and neighboring countries as a traditional medicine. In this study, toxicity of the aereal part of this plant has been conducted using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT). The results of this test showed that LC50 values of hexane and methanol extract were 1,59 and 69.98 μg/mL respectively. Fraction of the hexane extract did not show any activities except fraction 2 with LC50 635,33 μg/mL.
