Black cumin seeds are known to have beneficial contents as antibacterial. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of black cumin seed extract (Nigella sativa) on the growth of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The method used was the disc diffusion method. The ethanol extract of black cumin seeds gain by maceration method and was made into various concentration (5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, and 15)%. For positive control, ciprofloxacin disc were used and negative control used distilled water. The research model used was in vitro experimental research. The results showed that ethanol extract of black cumin seeds have antibacterial activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae with inhibition zone diameters (4.5, 6.7, 10.1, 11, 12.8) mm, Pseudomonas aeruginosa with inhibition zone diameters (7.5, 12, 12.6, 13.4, 15.6) mm, positive controls respectively (24.3 and 20.7) mm and negative controls (0). It can be concluded that black cumin seed extract has an inhibiting effect on the growth of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

This study aims to analyze the effect of ethanol extract of black cumin seeds (Nigella Sativa) on iNOS expression in the kidney of mice model preeclampsia. Design This study uses an experimental design with a posttest only control group design. Using a mice model preeclampsia. This study was divided into 6 groups: negative control, positive control (preeclampsia model), model + black cumin seed extract 500 mg/KgBB/day, 1000 mg/KgBB/day, 1500 mg/KgBB/day, and 2000 mg/KgBB/day days, after surgery on mice then examined iNOS Kidney expression by methods Immunohistochemical. Data from observations were analyzed by one way ANOVA test. The result there is an effect of ethanol extract of black cumin seeds on renal iNOS expression in mice model preeclampsia (p <0.05) at doses of 500mg, 1000mg, 1500mg, and 2000mg on decreasing renal iNOS expression. The conclusion Ethanol extract of black cumin seeds (Nigella sativa) can reduce iNOS Kidney expression in Mice Preeclampsia.

Purpose In this study, we looked at the benefits of a Nigella sativa supplementation diet and how nonessential fatty acids were controlled in Labeo rohit. Methods For a total of 28 days, Labeo rohita were fed various supplemental diets including 0.00 percent, 1%, and 2.5 percent black cumin seed. The effect of black cumin seed on Labeo rohita's fatty acid profile was investigated. Saturated fatty acids were high at the start of the trial, but they reduced after supplementation, and the difference in fatty acids between groups was statistically significant (?0.05). When black cumin seed was added to fish diet, it reduced saturated fatty acids (methyl heptadedecanoate and methyl stearate) while increasing unsaturated fatty acids (gamma-linolenic acid and methyl cis-5,8,11,14 eicosatetraenoic) ConclusionIn conclusion , adding 2.5 percent black cumin seed bin feed enhanced un-saturated fatty acids, which improved the quality of the fish flesh.
