Abstract Cucumis ficifolius (family Cucurbitaceae) is traditionally used for the treatment of diarrhea, teeth-ach, wound, burns, bleeding from external cuts and against different infectious diseases. With the absence of previous scientific report on the roots of the plant, this study was focused on isolation of chemical constituents and evaluation of their anti-bacterial activities of the roots of C. ficifolius. The n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of the roots of C. ficifolius were investigated for their phytochemical constituents and the results revealed that C. ficifolius is rich in many secondary metabolites such as saponins, terpenoids, glycosides, and steroids. But tannins and alkaloids were not observed. The ethyl acetate extract was subjected to column chromatography over silica gel and furnished three compounds namely compound-1, compound- 2 and compound-3. The structures of these compounds were characterized using FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and DEPT-135. The crude extracts and the isolated compounds were tested against four bacteria strains (Gram negative, E. coli and p. aeruginosa; Gram positive, S. aureus and B. subtilis) using Agar well diffusion method, the results showed that the methanol extracts and compound-2 were active against all the tested bacteria. Accordingly, 12.34, 18.25 and 23.75 mm zone of inhibition against B. subtilis were found at the concentration of 20, 30 and 40 μg/mL MeOH extract respectively. Similarly 9.5, 13.25 and 17.25 mm zone of inhibition were found for the same bacteria strains and concentrations of compound-2. These results showed the increase of inhibition zone with concentration. However, the n-hexane crude extract was found not to have anti-bacterial activity towards the tested bacteria strains.

Typhoid is a problematic fever, caused by Salmonella typhi. Present investigation is based upon studies of antibacterial effects of different solvent extracted samples of O. sanctum stem on growth of S. typhi. The crude extracts of stem of O. sanctum were prepared from three different solvents such as methanol, ethyl acetate and hot water. Four different concentrations (25%, 50%, 75% and100%) were prepared from each one of the solvent extracted sample. Agar well diffusion method was used to test the antibacterial activity of different solvent extracted samples of O. sanctum stem. Analysis of data indicates that a metabolic extract of O. sanctum stem shows maximum zone of inhibition and it was of 26mm at 100% concentration and minimum zone of inhibition was of 19mm at 50% concentration. Ethyl acetate extract of O. sanctum stem shows maximum zone of inhibition and it was of 29mm at 100% concentration and minimum was of 14mm at 25% concentration. Hot water extract of O. sanctum stem shows maximum zone of inhibition and it was of 28mm at 100% concentration and minimum zone of inhibition was of 12mm at 25% concentration. This study indicates that ethyl acetate extract of O. sanctum stem is more effective against S. typhi as compared to methanol and hot water extracted solvent. Contrary to the antibiotics or synthetic medicine associated with many side effects, this plant part can be used as a herbal medicines against Salmonella typhi infection.

The study investigated the antimicrobial properties and the chemical composition of ethyl acetate extract of Dennettia tripetala (pepper fruit) seeds. Crude extract obtained by maceration of pulverized seeds in ethyl acetate was evaluated for antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger using standard agar-well diffusion method. GC-MS method was used to determine the chemical constituents of the extract. The extract was oily, yellowish-brown with a yield of 1.66 % and had activity against most of the test microorganisms, with inhibition zone diameters ranging between 10 to 25 mm. About 41 chemical constituents were present in the extract with formic acid methyl esters and fatty acids accounting for 57.23 and 18.49 % respectively. Ethyl acetate extract of Dennettia tripetala seeds possessed antimicrobial activity against bacteria but not fungi. The observed activity may be due to the presence of formic and fatty acid esters in the seed. The study further established a scientific proof for the traditional use of Dennettia tripetala seed extracts in treating microbial infections.

Abstract Endosymbiont fungi from marine sponges are a rich source of medicinally active compounds. Indonesia has a huge number of marine sponges. This research was conducted to determine the antibacterial potential of endosymbiont fungi isolated from marine sponges collected from Kotok Kecil Island, Seribu Islands. The screening was conducted with two methods, the modified GIBEX and disc diffusion. Species of marine sponges were isolated, namely Petrosia sp., Stylissa carteri, Cinachyrella australiensis, Callyspongia sp., Petrosia nigrians, and Stylissa massa, and obtained 9 isolates of endosymbiont fungi. The GIBEX test against Escherichia coli and Streptococcus mutans showed that ethyl acetate extract had strongest antibacterial activity. Disc diffusion test of ethyl acetate extract, five isolates had antibacterial activity against S. mutans and four against E. coli. The isolate that showed the strongest antibacterial activity was from Petrosia sp. Which has an inhibition zone of 8.4 mm against E. coli and 7.45 mm against S. mutans. The main active compounds from the isolate of Petrosia sp. are butylhydroxytoluene and phthalic acid di-(2-propylpentyl) esters. Based on this study, we concluded that the endosymbiont fungi of marine sponges are potential to be developed for further development as source of antibacterial agents.
