<p><em>Metil merah merupakan salah satu zat warna golongan azo yang sering digunakan dalam industri dan laboratorium. Penggunaan metil merah dapat menimbulkan efek terhadap kesehatan dan lingkungan. Oleh sebab itu dilakukan metode fotodegradasi dengan menggunakan semikonduktor dan radiasi sinar tampak. Semikonduktor yang digunakan yaitu berbahan dasar tembaga sulfat hidrat dan perak nitrat. Prekusor tembaga sulfat hidrat dibuat dari pengolahan limbah logam tembaga hasil pemotongan tembaga yang ada di bengkel Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI) Bandung. Bahan semikonduktor juga memiliki kemampuan dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri. Hasil optimum yang didapatkan dalam proses fotodegradasi dan antibakteri merupakan gabungan antara kedua prekusor tembaga sulfat hidrat dan perak nitrat dengan bantuan penyinaran. Kemampuan dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri didapatkan persentase kematian 100 % untuk masing-masing bakteri, yaitu Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus. Aktifitas fotokatalitiknya dengan konsentrasi semikonduktor 10 ppm untuk mendegradasi zat warna metil merah 5 ppm, selama 23 jam, dimana persentase degradasi yang didapatkan dengan penyinaran lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan tanpa penyinaran. Pengaruh pH larutan terhadap degradasi metil merah yaitu optimum pada pH 12 (basa).</em></p><p><em><br /></em></p><p><em>Methyl red is one of the azo group dyes that is often used in industry and laboratories. The use of methyl red can have an effect on health and the environment. Therefore photodegradation method is done by using semiconductor and visible light radiation. The semiconductor used is based on copper sulfate hydrate and silver nitrate. The copper sulphate hydrate precursor is made from the processing of copper-cut copper metal waste in the workshop of the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) in Bandung. Semiconductor materials also have the ability to inhibit bacterial growth. The optimum results obtained in the photodegradation and antibacterial process are a combination of both copper sulfate hydrate precursor and silver nitrate with the help of irradiation. The ability to inhibit bacterial growth obtained 100% mortality for each bacterium, namely Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Photocatalytic activity with 10 ppm semiconductor concentration to degrade methyl red dye 5 ppm, for 23 hours, where the percentage of degradation obtained by irradiation is higher than without irradiation. The effect of pH of the solution on the degradation of methyl red is optimum at pH 12 (base).</em></p>

Aegle marmelos L. is one of the tropical plants that has many benefits and also has the potential to be used as herbal medicines. It caused in some areas in Indonesia, A. marmelos have been widely used in traditional medicine. This research was a qualitatively descriptive study to see the effectiveness of A. marmelos leaf extract in inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Stages of A. marmelos leaf extract inhibition test on bacterial growth included the stages: extraction by maceration method, phytochemical test, chromatography test, anti-microbial test. Data were analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that A. marmelos leaf extract was more effective in inhibiting the growth of E. coli bacteria than in S. Aureus bacteria. This can be information that Maja leaf extract can be used as a phytopharmaca material for diseases caused by E.coli

AbstrakSabun cair cuci tangan terbukti dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus. Sebagian besar restoran waralaba di Kota Padang menyediakan sabun cair cuci tangan yang telah diencerkan. Proses pengenceran mengubah kemampuan sabun dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri. Penelitian bertujuan untuk menguji daya hambat sabun cair cuci tangan pada restoran waralaba di Kota Padang terhadap pertumbuhan E. coli dan S. aureus. Sampel diambil dari empat restoran waralaba dan diuji dengan metode difusi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keempat sabun dapat menghambat pertumbuhan S. aureus namun hanya sebagian yang memiliki daya hambat terhadap E. coli. Median daya hambat pertumbuhan E. coli dan S. aureus pada setiap periode yaitu 0, 7.4, 7.3 dan 0, 26.1, 23.3. Nilai maksimum daya hambat pertumbuhan E.coli dalam tiga periode yaitu 19.5, 35.4, 27.1 dan 20.7, 40.2, 36.6 untukS. aureus. Daya hambat minimum terhadap kedua bakteri adalah 0.00. Hal tersebut dapat dipengaruhi komposisi dan konsentrasi antiseptik, antibakteri, pH sabun, pengenceran dan struktur dinding sel bakteri. Disimpulkan bahwa sabun cair cuci tangan yang diuji memiliki kemampuan lebih besar dalam menghambat pertumbuhan S.aureus daripada E.coli.Kata kunci: sabun cair cuci tangan, restoran, pengenceran, uji daya hambat, pertumbuhan bakteriAbstractLiquid hand soaps proved to inhibit Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacterial growth. In Padang, most of Restaurants provide diluted liquid hand soaps. Research found dilution changed soap ability to inhibit bacterial growth. The purpose of this study was to examine the ability of Padang City Restaurants’ liquid hand soaps to inhibit E. coli and S. aureus bacterial growth. The samples were taken from four restaurants and examined by using diffusion method. The results showed all of them could inhibit S. aureus but only a half inhibited Escherichia coli bacterial growth. Median for E. coli and S. aureus bacterial inhibition growth for each period were 0, 7.4, 7.3 and 0, 26.1, 23.3. Maximum inhibition value for E. coli growth in the first, second, and third periods were 19.5, 35.4, 27.1 and 20.7, 40.2, and 36.6 for S. aureus. In addition, minimum inhibition in both bacteria were 0.00. It could be influenced by soap antiseptic and antibacterial composition and concentration, pH, dilution, and structure of bacterial cell wall. In conclusion, the liquid hand soaps has greater ability to inhibit S. aureus than E. coli.Keywords: liquid hand soaps, restaurant, dilution, inhibitory test, bacterial growth

Introduction: In this project, the growth and volatile metabolites profiles of Escherichia coli (E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus were monitored under the influence of silver base chemical, nanoparticle and ultra-highly diluted compounds. Materials & Methods: The treatments were done for 12000 life cycles using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as well as ultra-highly diluted Argentum nitricum (Arg-n). Volatile organic metabolites analysis was performed using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results indicated that AgNPs treatment made the bacteria resistant and adapted to growth in the nanoparticle condition. The use of ultra-highly diluted Arg-n initially increased growth but it decreased later. Also, with the continuous usage of these materials, no more bacterial growth was observed. Results: The most important compounds produced by E. coli are Acetophenone, Octyl acetate, Styrene, 1,8-cineole, 4-t-butyl-2-(1-methyl-2-nitroethyl)cyclohexane, hexadecane and 2-Undecanol. The main compounds derived from S. aureus are Acetophenone,1,8-cineole, Benzaldehyde, 2-Hexan-1-ol, Tridecanol, Dimethyl Octenal and tetradecane. Acetophenone and 1,8-cineole were common and produced by both organisms. Conclusion: Based on the origin of the produced volatiles, main volatiles percentage of untreated sample is hydrocarbon (>50%), while bacteria treatments convert the ratio in to aldehydes, ketones and alcohols in the case of AgNPs, (>80%) and aldehydes, ketones and terpenes in the case of Arg-n (>70%).

Sulfaquinoxaline (SQX) has been detected in environmental water samples, where its side effects are still unknown. To the best of our knowledge, its oxidation by Fenton and photo-Fenton processes has not been previously reported. In this study, SQX oxidation, mineralization, and toxicity (Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria) were evaluated at two different setups: laboratory bench (2 L) and pilot plant (15 L). The experimental design was used to assess the influence of the presence or absence of radiation source, as well as different H2O2 concentrations (94.1 to 261.9 mg L−1). The experimental conditions of both setups were: SQX = 25 mg L−1, Fe(II) = 10 mg L−1, pH 2.8 ± 0.1. Fenton and photo-Fenton were suitable for SQX oxidation and experiments resulted in higher SQX mineralization than reported in the literature. For both setups, the best process was the photo-Fenton (178.0 mg L−1 H2O2), for which over 90% of SQX was removed, over 50% mineralization, and bacterial growth inhibition less than 13%. In both set-ups, the presence or absence of radiation was equally important for sulfaquinoxaline oxidation; however, the degradation rates at the pilot plant were between two to four times higher than the obtained at the laboratory bench.
