Medinilla speciosa (M. speciosa) Blume is a plant originating from Mount Muria, Kudus District, Central Java, Indonesia. Its fruit has been used by the local community to treat mouth sores, diarrhea, inflammatory, hyperlipidemia, cancer, bacterial infection and nutrients for pregnant women. However, the antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi (S. typhi) and Shigella dysentriae (S. dysentriae) is yet unknown. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial activities of M. speciosa fruit extracts against clinical strain of S. typhi and S. dysentriae. Plant determination and sample preparation were conducted. The fruits of M. speciosa were extracted by gradual maseration using n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol as solvents. Phytochemicals were screened by Fransworth method. Antibacterial activity was determined using agar well diffusion. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) values and comparison study of antibacterial activity were determined. The results showed that all of the extracts exhibited antibacterial activities, with the greatest activity  shown by the methanol extract. This extract was more effective against S. dysenteriae  than S. typhi, as evidenced by the largest inhibition diameter and lowest MIC (25 mg/mL) and MBC (50 mg/mL) values. With regard to the results of phytochemical screening, the antibacterial activity of methanol extract could be due to the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, quinones, saponins and tannins. From the comparative antibacterial activity value indicated that in order to give the same inhibition diameter with 1 ppm of chloramphenicol, 312.3 ppm methanol extract is needed. It can be conclude that M. speciosa fruit has a potential to be developed as natural antibacterial agent, especially to treat bacillary dysentery

Parijoto (Medinilla speciosa Blume) is a plant found in Mount Muria, Kudus, Central Java. The local community often uses its fruit to treat various diseases, as well as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer. This study aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extract from parijoto fruit against Staphyococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Serratia marcescens clinical isolates. Gradual maceration of simplicial and antibacterial activity testing of the extracts was performed, followed by determining the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) and comparative antibacterial activity most active extract against ampicillin and cefadroxil. The results showed that all extracts exhibited activity against S. aureus ATCC 29213, but only ethyl acetate and methanol extracts had activity against S. marcescens clinical isolates. The highest antibacterial activity was shown by the methanol extract, which was more effective against S. aureus ATCC 29213, having the largest inhibition diameter and lowest MIC and MBC values (6.25 and 12.5 mg/mL). The comparative analysis indicated that the methanol extract demonstrated lower antibacterial activity against S. aureus ATCC 29213 than cefadroxil (72,511: 1). This antibacterial activity is presumed to be generated from alkaloids, polyphenols, tannins, flavonoids, quinones and saponina in the extract.Keywords: Amoxicillin, Cefadroxil, MIC, MBC

The leaves of kenikir are known to have many benefits, one of which can be used as medicine. Kenikir leaves are reported to have antibacterial activity against the bacteria Salmonella typhi (S.typhi). S. typhi is a bacterium that causes typhoid fever. Typhoid fever is still an endemic disease in Asian countries, especially Indonesia. Typhoid fever became the third largest disease in Indonesia in 2010. The study related to the antibacterial activity of kenikir leaf fraction to S. typhi has never been reported. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research related to the antibacterial activity of extracts and leaf fractions of kenikir to compare their potential against S. typhi. The study was conducted using the disk diffusion method using 5 series of concentrations namely 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 30%. Tests were carried out on methanol extract, hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol-water fraction. The results showed that highest inhibition zone diameter is 7,75 mm which is reached by methanol extract. The order of the highest inhibiting zone diameter are extract, hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol-water fraction.

A number of 2,3-di-O-acyl derivatives (6-11) of methyl 4-O-acetyl-a-Lrhamnopyranoside (5) obtained by using various acylating agents were screened for in vitro antifungal activity against four plant pathogenic fungi, viz., Alternaria alternata, Curvularia lunata. Fusarium equiseti and Macrophomina phaseolina. These compounds were also screened for in vitro antibacterial activity against ten human pathogenic bacteria, viz., Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus megaterium, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, INABA ET (Vibrio), Pseudomonas species, Salmonella paratyphi, Shigella dysenteriae and Salmonella typhi. The study reveal that these 4-O-acetyl-?-L-rhamnopyranoside derivatives are more prone towards antifungal activities than that of antibacterial activities.

Objective: This study aimed to demonstrate the incorporation of Zingiber officinale essential (ZOE) oil onto galactomannan from Arenga pinnata (GAP) matrix and determined the antibacterial activity of the edible films (EF).Methods: EF was obtained from the incorporation of GAP (0.5, 0.9, or 1.3 g) with ZOE (0.5 or 1 g) using glycerol (0.6 g) and monoglycerol oleic (0.2 g) as a plasticizer.Results: The thickness of the films increased with the increase of GAP and ZOE oil. However, the tensile strength and water permeability decreased in the fourth EF when the ZOE oil was increased. The maximum value of tensile strength and modulus elongation was obtained with the ratio of GAP to ZOE oil at 0.9, 0.5, 4.502 MPa, and 0.0633 MPa, respectively. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum showed that the interaction occurred between GAP and ZOE oil. The EFs showed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella dysenteriae, Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the highest activity in the third EF. The total bacteria amount in a colony decreased until the 5th day compared with the control. Furthermore, the third EF could inhibit oxygen migration with a respiratory quotient of 7.71.Conclusions: This study revealed that EFs from GAP and ZOE could be prepared and have antibacterial activity against several pathogenic bacteria.

<p><strong><br /></strong><em>The antibacterial activities of mangrove species, Avicennia marina, Sonneratia caseolaris (collected from Teluk Payo, Banyuasin, South Sumatera), Ceriops tagal, Rizhopora apiculata, and Sonneratia alba (collected from Sadai, South Bangka) were screened against Salmonella typhi and Listeria monocytogenes by agar disk diffusion assays. Extractions were conducted using organic solvents (methanol, ethyl acetate, and acetone, subsequently). Most of the extracts tested showed potential antibacterial activity against both pathogens. The methanol extracts of the bark from S. alba and the fruit from A. marina showed particularly large inhibition zones (15 mm) against S. typhi. The acetone extract of S. alba leaves showed the largest inhibition zone (14 mm) when tested against L. Monocy-togenes. Further partial purifications of selected extracts which showed strong inhibition were performed by silica gel column chromatography using various eluent compositions with different polarities. The third fraction of methanol extract from S.alba leaves eluted with chloroform:methanol (1:5) resulted in a remarkably large inhibition zone (23 mm) against S. typhi. The third and seventh fractions of acetone extract from S. alba leaves eluted with ethyl acetate:methanol (7:3) resulted in a large inhibition zones (15 mm) against L. monocytogenes. In addition, the sixth fraction of methanol extract from A. marina fruit eluted with chloroform : methanol (6:4) resulted in the largest inhibition zone (17 mm) against L. monocytogenes. These results indicated that mangrove extracts could be developed as potential biomaterials for biopharmaceutical as well as biopreservation industries.</em></p><p><em><strong>Keywords</strong>: antibacterial activity, mangrove, column chromatography</em></p>

The antibacterial activity of Tokar sha; a local traditional medication widely used by many people in North-west zone of Nigeria especially Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara against enteric infections were examined against some clinical isolates of pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus and Salmonella typhi) using agar well diffusion method. The pattern of inhibition varied with the tokar sha concentrations and the organisms tested. The tokar sha was more effective on E. coli with a maximum zone of growth inhibition of 25mm at 35mg/ml followed by B. cereus (20mm). However, S. aureus and S. typhi were resistant to tokar sha at all concentrations tested. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were found to be 35mg/ml for both E. coli and B. cereus. The antibacterial activities exhibited by tokar sha in this study could be attributed to the presence of its constituents which signifies the potential of the tokar sha as a therapeutic agent. These findings may justify the ethnomedicinal use of tokar sha as an antibacterial agent against enterobacteria
