Abstract
In recent times, the trend in malaria research is shifting towards identifying new medicines from natural resources for management of malaria. Some Indonesian herbs have been traditionally used as antimalaria by the society in different areas of Indonesia. They include papaya leaves (Carica papaya L), meniran (Phyllantus ninuri L), pare (Momordica charantia L), Smallanthus sonchifolia and Cassia siamea L leaves. The antiplasmodium activities of hydro-alcoholic extracts of some standardized plant materials were screened against of P. falciparum strain 3D7. These results indicate the potential of antimalarial herbs.
