Potential of Red Algae and Green Algae to Inhibit Escherichia coli Bacteria Growth. The use of synthetic chemicals as a control for the growth of E. coli bacteria that causes of diarrhea children can cause adverse effects on health, so it needs natural control ingredients that do not cause impacts on human health. One natural controller to inhibit bacterial growth is by utilizing natural sources, including seaweed. The purpose of this study was to examine the potential of seaweed as an anti-bacterial agent of E. coli. The research used seaweed extract of Eucheuma spinosum, Euchuema cottonii, Gracilaria spp., and Caulerpa spp. The test parameters observed were the inhibition zone (mm) of each seaweed extract treatment using a ruler and measured the inhibition zone distance. The results showed that E.cottonii seaweed extract  had the highest inhibitory ability with an inhibition zone diameter of 11.1 mm, including the moderately sensitive category, then Caulerpa spp. with a inhibition zone diameter of 10.0 mm, Gracilaria spp has the ability to inhibit E.coli bacteria with a inhibition zone diameter of 6.9 mm, including the insensitive category, and the lowest in seaweed E. spinosum with a inhibition zone diameter of 4.2 mm. including the insensitive category.

Racun ayam is one of the plants which has several activities in its fruits, one of which is an antibacterial. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of ethanol extract of racun ayam leaves. The extraction was done by maceration method using ethanol as a solvent. Antibacterial activity assay was carried out on S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa bacteria by disk diffusion method at the concentrations of 80, 100, and 120 ppm. The results showed that the ethanol extract of B. javanica leaves had the greatest inhibition zone on E. coli with inhibition zone diameter values ​​at 80, 100, and 120 ppm were 11.7 mm, 14.5 mm and 19.67 mm respectively. Inhibition zones in S. aureus could only be seen at 100 and 120 ppm which had inhibition zone diameters at 1.17 mm and 2.17 mm respectively, whereas in P. aeruginosa they did not have any inhibitory zone values. The results of statistical analysis showed a significance of the inhibition zone diameter values ​​of E. coli bacteria starting at 80 ppm with a sig value of 0.034. Due to a sig value was <0.05, it was categorized as significantly different from the negative control. The bacteria of S. aureus which had ​​<0.05 for sig values only found on 100 ppm and 120 ppm. Bacteria P. aeruginosa which had sig value >0.05 was not significantly different at all concentrations

This research aims to determine the inhibition and effectiveness of using miana leaf extract against the growth of E. coli bacteria that causes diarrhea. This study uses experimental research with samples of miana leaves extracted and E. coli bacteria and then uses the Kruskal-Wallis test with Mann-Whitney analysis to test the hypothesis. The results showed differences in the inhibition between miana leaves extract concentrations of 15%, 30%, 50%, and 90% of the growth of E. coli bacteria with Asymp values. Sig = 0.017. The most effective concentration of miana leaf extract in influencing E. coli bacteria was an extract concentration of 90% with an inhibition zone diameter of 31.27 mm. There was a significant difference in the inhibition between miana leaf extract (Coleus scutellarioides (L) Benth) on the growth of E. coli bacteria at 12, 15 & 18 hours, 20 hours, and 24 hours, with Asymp values. Sig = 0.000. Results an increase in the inhibition zone, and the highest inhibition occurred during the 24 hours, namely at a very strong 90% extract concentration. This finding proves that the compounds contained in miana leaf extract can inhibit the growth of E. coli bacteria. This finding has implications for refill drinking water managers to utilize miana leaf extract to avoid E. coli bacteria as the main cause of diarrhea.

Abstract Background The surge of resistant Gram-negative organisms has been worrying infectious disease physicians and physicians in general because of the lack of a large number of antibiotics to which these organisms remain susceptible. Ceftazidime-Avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a drug approved by the FDA to treat complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI), complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAIs) in combination with metronidazole, and recently for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia. Worldwide resistance rates of Enterobacteriaceae to CAZ-AVI have been reported below 2.6%, and 4-8% for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The FDA, CLSI, and EUCAST assigned the clinical breakpoints of susceptibility: MIC &lt; /=8 mg/liter susceptible, and &gt;/=8mg/liter, resistant. In Mexico, CAZ-AVI was approved in 2018, and its cost is very high compared to other antimicrobials, so its use is limited in very specific cases. The resistance rates to this antibiotic in the Mexican population remain largely unknown. Methods We tested 106 specimens for susceptibility to ceftazidime-avibactam using the disk Kirby-Bauer method. The inhibition zone diameter was determined in all cases and we considered the organism susceptible when the inhibition zone diameter was &gt;=21 mm, and resistant with an inhibition zone diameter &lt; = 20 mm. Results We found 5 specimens (4.71%) resistant to ceftazidime-avibactam, corresponding to E. coli (3) and P. aeruginosa (2). Two of these were also resistant to colistin, and 4 to meropenem. All carbapenem-resistant isolates harbored Metallo-beta-lactamases genes, for E. coli was NDM gen, and for P. aeruginosa the VIM gene(GeneXpert® Cepheid). Conclusion The ceftazidime-avibactam resistance among Gram-negative bacteria in our study is similar to the one reported in other international studies. We need more studies in our population to know the nationwide resistance to this antibiotic. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures
