Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this research was to determine the in vitro hemostatic activity of   ethanol extract of beetroot (Beta vulgaris L). Methods: In vitro hemostatic activity was performed on whole blood of rat by Lee-White method to determine the clotting time  and the Eustrek method to observe the microscopic picture of clotted blood. Results: The results of  in vitro study showed  that  ethanol extract of Beetroot  at the concentration of 1% and 2% decreased the clotting time at the minute of  24.4+1.14 and 15.9 + 0.65, respectively, as compared to EDTA treatment which did not clot for 120 min (p<0.05) and  microscopically showed that  blood cells appear to be attached to each other at the concentration of 1% and 2% of ethanol extract of Beetroot. The hemostatic activity  of ethanol extract of beetroot showed a dose-dependent  manner in the in vitro study. Conclusion: Ethanol extract of beetroot (Beta vulgaris L) has hemostatic activity on in vitro method.
