The in vitro susceptibility of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) to nadifloxacin and seven other fluoroquinolones (norfloxacin, ofloxacin, enoxacin, ciprofloxacin, lomefloxacin, tosufloxacin and sparfloxacin) was evaluated. The MRSA isolates were isolated from 114 skin infections between 1991 and 1994. Nadifloxacin exhibited the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration and there were no MRSA isolates resistant to nadifloxacin, while there were some resistant to all of the other seven fluoroquinolones. The minimum concentrations of these drugs needed to cause 50% inhibition of the isolates increased dramatically from 1991 to 1992, but has hardly changed since 1992.

Penemuan antimikrob menjadi hal yang sangat penting dalam pengobatan dan kemajuan medis. Tantangan dalam pengobatan menggunakan antibiotik adalah resistensi bakteri terhadap antibiotik yang digunakan. Salah satu bakteri yang mengalami resistensi adalah Staphylococcus aureus. Oleh karena itu, diteliti alternatif pengobatan dengan menggunakan tumbuhan yang berpotensi memiliki kemampuan antibakteri. Buah kurma varietas Ajwa telah diteliti memiliki beberapa senyawa aktif yang berpotensi sebagai antibakteri dan antioksidan. Kurma Ajwa juga telah disebutkan di dalam Al-Quran dan Al-Hadits. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui efek antibakteri ekstrak akuades buah kurma Ajwa dengan melihat luas zona hambat serta konsentrasi hambat minimum (KHM) dan konsentrasi bunuh minimum (KBM) pada Staphylococcus aureus. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode ekperimental secara in vitro dan bersifat deskriptif observasional dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode difusi dengan menggunakan sumuran dan metode dilusi padat. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Laboratorium Terpadu Mikrobiologi Poltekkes Bandung. Didapatkan rerata hasil zona hambat adalah 5,87 mm yang termasuk kategori sedang, KHM pada konsentrasi 50%, dan KBM belum dapat ditemukan. Berdasar atas uji statistik, hasil penelitian uji difusi menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak akuades buah kurma (Phoenix dactylifera L.) varietas Ajwa berpengaruh menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus. ANTIBACTERIAL EFFECT OF EXTRACT AQUADES AJWA DATE (PHOENIX DACTYLIFERA L.) AGAINST STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS IN VITROThe discovery of antimicrobials has been significantly important for current treatments and the future developments in the medical field. One of the challenges faced in the usage of antibiotics is the resistance imposed by the bacteria towards the antibiotics itself. An example of such bacteria that experiences thisresistance is Staphylococcus aureus. As a result, studies regarding alternatives of treatments, specifically those utilizing various plants that may potentially have antibacterial properties are conducted. Previous studies have already shown that date palms of the Ajwa variety, known as Phoenix dactylifera, contains several active compounds that are potential antioxidants and exhibit antibacterial properties. The Ajwa date palm has also been mentioned in several scriptures of the Al-Quran and Al-Hadits. The objective of this study was to understand the antibacterial properties of aquadest-extracted Phoenix dactylifera through the measurement of the area of the zone of inhibition, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Staphylococcus aureus. This study involves the use of an experimental method, known as in vitro, and is also a descriptive observational study with a quantitative approach. The methodology used consists of the well diffusion method and the solid dilution method. This study was conducted at Laboratorium Terpadu Mikrobiologi Poltekkes Bandung. The results of this study show an average zone of inhibition of 5.87 mm which is categorized as medium, a minimum inhibitory concentration of 50%, and a minimum bactericidal concentration that is yet to be found. Based on statistical tests, the result of the diffusion method shows that the aquadest-extracted Phoenix dactylifera is influential in inhibiting the growth of the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.

Antimicrobial properties of chitosan extracted from indigenous shrimp processing waste were determined against one gram-negative (Salmonella Paratyphi) and one gram-positive bacterium (Staphylococcus aureus) in vitro. The antimicrobial activities of chitosan were explored by calculation of the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) in media supplemented with 128, 138, 168, 192, 240, 288, 300 and 320 ppm chitosan solution adjusted to pH 6 or 7. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) of the prepared chitosan was 288 and 300 ppm for both bacterial strains.  These results indicate that chitosan from indigenous shrimp processing waste could be used as an effective antibacterial agent in the food industry.

Ekstraksi dilakukan dengan cara maserasi menggunakan pelarut etanol. Pengujian bioaktivitas antibakteri menggunakan metode dilusi cair. Hasil uji bioaktivitas antibakteri dianalisa menggunakan metode Oneway Anova, dilanjutkan dengan Uji Tukey. Uji bioaktivitas antibakteri menunjukkan ekstrak memiliki aktivitas antibakteri. Pada bakteri Staphylococcus aureus konsentrasi ekstrak 90% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC, MRSA pada konsentrasi ekstrak 30% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC, dan pada Salmonella typhi pada konsentrasi ekstrak 30% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC. Data Anova menunjukkan bahwa pertumbuhan koloni tiap konsentrasi ekstrak signifikan artinya tiap konsentrasi berbeda nyata dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri, tetapi nilai MBC belum dapat ditentukan karena masih mengalami pertumbuhan koloni pada hasil pengujian MBC.Kata kunci : Galaxaura oblongata, bioaktivitas, senyawa kimia, antibakteri. ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration of Galaxaura oblongata ethanol extract against Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), and Salmonella typhi in influencing the growth of Staphylococcus aureus MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), and Salmonella typhi. Extraction was carried out by maceration using ethanol solvent. The liquid dilution method was used as an antibacterial bioactivity testing. The antibacterial bioactivity test results showed that the extract had antibacterial activity. In Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, concentrations extract of 90% were determined as MIC values, MRSA of concentrations extract of 30 were determined as MIC values, and in Salmonella typhi at concentrations extract of 30% set as MIC values. The antibacterial bioactivity test results were analyzed using One Way Anova method, followed by the Tukey Test. Anova's data showed that the growth of colonies in each concentration of extract was significant, meaning that each concentration was significantly different in inhibiting bacterial growth. However, the MBC value could not be determined because it still experienced colony growth in the results of MBC testing.Keywords: Galaxaura oblongata, bioactivity, chemical compound, antibacterial.

Abstract  In Indonesia, in 2006, the prevalence of infections due to MRSA was 23.5%. Physalis minima L. plants are known to have antimicrobial activity because they contain compounds withaferin A, which can induce programmed cell death. This research was to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Ciplukan (Physalis minima L.) extract in Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. Dilution test with Mueller-Hinton broth medium used for measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Ciplukan  fruit extract was dissolved in distilled water, and poured into a test tube with a certain concentration (0.9 g/mL (90%); 0.3 g/mL (45%); 0.15 g/mL (22.5%); 0.075 g/mL (11.25%) and 0.0375 g/mL (5.625%). After being incubated for 24 hours, the bacteria in the test tube were plated on nutrient agar plates to determine the MBC. The MIC cannot be determined, because the medium in the dilution test tube is disturbed by the color of the extract so that turbidity cannot be observed. From the observations of the minimum bactericidal concentration, MBC of the Ciplukan (Physalis minima  L.) fruit extract against MRSA was in the P1 tube or equivalent to 0.9 g / ml (90%).Keywords             : Physalis minima L., Antimicrobial, Ciplukan, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Withaferin ACorrespondence   : [email protected]
