Acne is an inflammatory disease that occurs in the skin triggered by the bacteria acne treatment can be done by using natural materials that shiitake mushrooms (Lentinus edodes). This aims of this study were to determining the antibacterial activity of extracts and fractions shiitake mushrooms with broth microdilution method, determining the value of equality shiitake mushrooms with antibacterial comparison and determining the morphological changes of bacteria after exposure to the test sample with a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Tests conducted antibacterial activity against Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus at concentrations used is 1 ppm, 2 ppm, 4 ppm, 8 ppm, 16 ppm, 32 ppm, 64 ppm, 128 ppm, 256 ppm, 512 ppm. Best MIC value obtained in fraction of ethyl acetate and n-hexane fraction of the bacterium Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus at a concentration of 256 ppm. KBM value of the n-hexane fraction against Staphylococus aureus bacteria at concentrations of 512 ppm and ethyl acetate fraction against bacteria Staphylococus aureus and epidermidis at a concentration of 512 ppm. Value equality is obtained 1 mg of ethyl acetate fraction of shiitake mushrooms equivalent to 5.346 x 10-2 mg of tetracycline. SEM test results showed the presence of antibacterial activity which is indicated by a change in cell morphology, their lumps and their cell wall frown on Propionibacterium acnes were exposed to ethyl acetate fraction.Key words: Acne, Lentinus edodes, antibacterials, microdilution, SEM

Kayu lubang are plants which one traditionally used to acne treatment. Scientifically acne is caused bacteria’s such as Propionibacterium acnes dan Staphylococcus aureus infection. The growth of Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus be inhibition with phytochemical compounds contained leaves of kayu lubang. The purpose of this research was to identification phytochemical compunds from rude extract ethanol leaves of kayu lubang and which consentration extract that shows the optimum to inhibition growth of Propionibacterium acnes dan Staphylococcus aureus in antibacterial activity test. Phytochemical test conducted qualitative and antibacterial activity test using disc diffusion with concentration 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% dan 40% in 3 replication. Based on the results showed that in general those leaves contain alcaloid, phenol, tannin and steroid. The optimum inhibition zone results of extract  inhibition bacterial growth at concentration of 40%,  inhibition zone Propionibacterium acnes inhibition zone of 6,83 mm while Staphylococcus aureus bacteria was 5,53  mm. Based on the results of statistical tests DMRT effects of extracts leaves of kayu lubang  against the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes  and  Staphylococcus aureus showed significant differences among for 95% confidence.

Herein the synthesis of a series of novel 8-(1- alkyl/alkylsulphonyl/alkoxycarbonyl-benzimidazol-2-ylmethoxy)-5- chloroquinoline derivatives is reported. These derivatives were prepared by the condensation of o-phenylenediamine with [(5-chloroquinolin-8- yl)oxy]acetic acid, followed by substitution at nitrogen with different electrophilic reagents in presence of an appropriate base to give a series of nitrogen heterocycles containing the benzimidazole and quinoline nuclei. The structures of the compounds were confirmed based on 1H-NMR, 13CNMR, IR and mass spectral data. Almost all the compounds exhibited promising antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus. Some of the compounds showed good antifungal activities against Aspergillus niger but the antifungal activities against Candida albicans were disappointing.

Nudibranchs are marine invetebrates belongs to the class of Gastropoda that are able to camouflage and develop a self-defense systems. Marine bacteria contain chemicals compunds that have potentials on marine drugs discovery through the secondary metabolism. The purpose of this study was to isolate the symbiotic bacteria from nudibranches Phylidiella pustulosa and Thuridilla lineolate and to screen the antibacterial activity of these bacterial isolates against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Isolation and culture of the symbiotic bacteria was made on B1 (solid) media. The results of the antibacterial assay showed that the symbiotic bacterial isolates from Phylidiella pustulosa and Thuridilla lineolate were able to inhibit the growth of the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli test. Keywords: nudibranch, Phyllidiella pustulosa, Thuridilla lineolate, bacteria, antibacterialAbstrakNudibranch adalah avetebrata laut dalam kelas Gastropoda yang mampu melakukan kamuflase dan mengembangkan sistem pertahanan diri. Bakteri laut mengandung senyawa kimia yang berpotensi sebagai bahan obat-obatan yang dihasilkan melalui metabolit sekunder. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengisolasi bakteri yang bersimbion dengan nudibranch Phylidiella pustulosa dan Thuridilla lineolate, kemudian mengamati aktivitas antibakteri dari isolat bakteri tersebut terhadap Escherichia coli danStaphylococcus aureus. Isolasi dan kultur bakteri yang bersimbion dibuat pada media B1 (padat). Skrining aktivitas antibakteri menunjukkan isolat bakteri yang bersimbion dengan nudibranch Phylidiella pustulosa dan Thuridilla lineolate mampu menghambat pertumbuhan organisme uji Staphylococcus aureus dan Escherichia coli. Kata kunci: nudibranch, Phyllidiella pustulosa, Thuridilla lineolate, bakteri, antibakteri

Context: Plant based antimicrobial represent a vast untapped source for medicines and further exploration of plant antimicrobial neeto occur. Evolvulus alsinoides (L) (Convolvulaceae) is a perennial herb is used in traditional medicine in East Asia, India, Africa and Philippines to cure fever, cough, cold, venereal diseases, azoospermia, adenitis and dementia.   Objective: The objective of this research was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the extracts of E. alsinoides on some clinical microbial isolates.   Materials and Methods: The ed thanolic and aqueous extracts of the whole plant (leaves and twigs) were analysed for alkanoids, tannins, glycosides, steroids, flavonoids, saponins, volatile oil and resins. The determination of antibacterial activity was done using the agar well diffusion technique. Pure cultures of pathogenic bacteria such as Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus leutus, Klebsiella Pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi were used for antibacterial activity assay, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC).   Results: The ethanolic extract of the plant had MIC values ranging from 16 mg/ml to 512.5 mg/ml. The least MIC was 16mg-ml against Salmonella typhi while Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus showed the highest MIC of 512.5 mg-ml. In the aqueous extract the MIC ranged between 512.5 to >1025 mg/ml. Salmonella typhi, Micrococcus luteus and Staphylococcus aureus were not inhibited by the water extract. Phytochemical result showed ethanol to be a better solvent for the extraction of the bioactive agents in this plant which include: glycosides, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids and volatile oil.   Conclusion: In this study the gram-negative organisms had the lowest MICs and MBCs. This suggests their higher susceptibility to the extract of this plant. On the basis of the result obtained in this investigation it can be concluded that ethanol extract of Evolvulus alsinoides had significant in vitro broad spectrum antimicrobial activity.   Keywords: Evolvulus alsinoides; Phytochemical screening; Antibacterial activity.
