This study aimed to test the antibacterial activity of n-hexane and methanol extracts of white cempaka flowers (Magnolia alba) against Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. The extract was obtained by using the maceration method for 72 hours. Each extract was tested for its antibacterial properties using the disc diffusion method with the variant concentration of the extract used was 0.05%; 2%; 4%; 6%; and 8%. The results showed that the methanol extract had a higher inhibition zone than the n-hexane extract. In n-hexane extract, the lowest concentration of 0.05% showed an inhibition zone of 6.6 mm and the highest concentration of 8% had an inhibition zone of 9.6 mm. Whereas in methanol extract, the inhibition zone obtained was 7.3 mm at a low concentration of 0.05%, but at the highest concentration of 8% the inhibition zone obtained was 11.6 mm. The effect of extract concentration on the diameter of the inhibition zone formed is very significant (directly proportional), where the higher the concentration used, the larger the diameter of the inhibition zone produced. Antibacterial testing for both extracts showed a weak (< 10 mm) to moderate (> 10 mm) bacterial inhibition, which was similar with the inhibition zone obtained from the positive control (11-11.3 mm; moderate bacterial inhibition).

Green nanoparticles are receiving great attention due to their broad fields of application. Plant extracts are promising sources, since the synergizing process is easy and cost-effective. Green synergism offers safer nanomaterials for both human health and the environment. The antimicrobial application of prepared nanoparticles is due to special capabilities at the nanoscale size. Green zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) from lemongrass and turmeric revealed good antibacterial properties. Antibacterial active compounds were extracted from lemongrass and turmeric using methanol as a solvent. The extracts were introduced to zinc oxide solution to create synergized green ZnONPs and tested for their antibacterial properties. The samples were characterized by means of XRD, SEM, FTIR, and GC-MS. The zones of inhibition of synergized green ZnONPs were successfully measured using the disc diffusion method. The findings using gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli. showed a higher antibacterial inhibition zone, with a diameter of 1.6 cm. The gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus., showed low antibacterial inhibition. The addition of ZnO had positively revealed greater inhibition. Green ZnONPs synthesized using plant extracts will be further tested for various applications. HIGHLIGHTS Green zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) prepared from lemongrass and turmerics Plant extracts are significant in reducing and stabilizing metallic ions The synergism of ZnONPs was successfully prepared from plant extract active and evaluated for their antibacterial activity using Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli The zones of inhibition of synergized green ZnONPs measured using the disc diffusion method showed a higher antibacterial inhibition zone Antibacterial activity revealed the potential applications of green synergism of ZnONPs for treatment of contaminated water, medical applications, and cosmetics GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

All synthesized compounds were characterized using modern physico-chemical methods (FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and elemental analysis). Eight dilutions in dimethyl sulfoxide of these derivatives were tested against two phyto-pathogenic fungi, Fusarium oxysporum, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and one common yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The antifungal activity was assessed using disc diffusion method, both negative, pure DMSO, and positive control, nystatin, were used. S. cerevisiae was slightly more sensitive than filamentous fungi, the strongest inhibition, MIC=0.3125g/L, was observed for N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-hydroxy-benzamide and N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-(4-dimethylamino-benzylidene-hydrazinocarbonylmethoxy)-benzamide. The most active compounds against F. oxysporum and S. sclerotiorum were N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-hydroxy-benzamide (MIC= 0.625g/L), N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-hydrazinocarbonylmethoxy-benzamide (MIC=1.25g/L) and N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-(4-dimethylamino-benzylidene-hydrazinocarbonyl-methoxy)-benzamide (MIC=0.625g/L), N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-2-hydrazinocarbonyl-methoxy-benzamide (MIC=1.25g/L), respectively.

ABSTRAKStaphylococcus aureus merupakan bakteri yang relatif sering dijumpai pada manusia. Beberapa infeksi yang disebabkan oleh Staphylococcus aureus antara lain, bisul, infeksi luka dan pneumonia. Salah satu obattradisional yang dapat digunakan untuk mengobati infeksi yang disebabkan oleh Staphylococcus aureus adalah jamur lingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum). Penelitian dilakukan dengan 5 konsentrasi ekstrak etanol jamur lingzhi, yaitu kontrol negatif (0 µg/ml), 20 µg/ml, 40 µg/ml, 60 µg/ml, 80 µg/ml dan 100 µg/ml dan dilakukan 6 kali pengulangan. Metode yang digunakan dalam uji aktivitas antimikroba yaitu metode difusi kertas cakram. Data zona hambat dianalisis dengan uji Anova One-Way. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak etanol jamurlingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum) dengan konsentrasi 100 µg/ml memiliki rata-rata daya hambat tertinggi yaitu sebesar 18,0 mm (sangat aktif). Dapat disimpulkan bahwa semakin besar konsentrasi ekstrak jamur lingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum), maka akan berpengaruh besar pula terhadap zona hambat bakteri Staphylococcus aureus.Keyword : Antibakteri, Ganoderma lucidum, Staphylococcus aureus, Etanol.ABSTRACTStaphylococcus aureus is a bacteria that can cause infections , such as boils , wound infections and pneumonia. One of the traditional medicines that can be used to treat these infections are fungal lingzhi (Ganodermalucidum).
