Abstract: The effect of terong belanda (Solanum betaceum Cav.) juice on anemia mice DDW strain induced by sodium nitrite has been studied from March 2012 to August 2012 in the Laboratory of Animal Physiology and Laboratory of Tissue Culture, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science, University of Sumatera Utara, Medan. This research performed with completely randomized design and was divided in two controls and three treatments. The treatments were divided into three classes concentration of juice such as: 40% (P1), 50% (P2), and 60% (P3) respectively. Each class consisted of six animals.
