Abstract. Infectious and parasitic diseases is one of various disease that the most common. Based on
data from the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2011, infectious and parasitic diseases become the
third largest cause of death in the world. One of the plants that have potential as an antimalarial is
suruhan (Peperomia pellucida). The purpose of this study is to test antimalarial activity against
Plasmodium falciparum and analysis photochemistry consituen from extract suruhan. Antimalarial
activity test using Desjardin method. Extraction was done by using maceration wuth methanol as a
solvent and fractionation using partition methods. Results of phytochemical screening revealed the
presence of alkaloids, flavonoid, steroid, saponins and triterpenoid test results antimalarial activity
fraction of n-hexane, ethyl acetate and water show IC50 values are 12.80, 2.90 and 10.74 mg/ mL
respectively.
