Rise of antibiotic resistant pathogenic bacteria namely Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Multiple drug resistant Escherichia coli (MDR E. coli results in reduced efficacy of currently used antibacterial agents. Medicinal plants serve as potential targets for biologically effective antibacterial agents. The present study determined the phytochemical and invitro antibacterial activity of ethanol, chloroform, hexane and water extracts of whole plant of Andrographis paniculata against MRSA and MDR Escherichia coli. Zone of inhibition diameters were measured. Compared to all the extracts, ethanolic extract showed highest activity. The antibacterial activity was absent in hexane and water extracts. Chloroform extracts showed moderately good activity. The antibacterial compounds found in ethanolic extract were flavanoids, saponins and alkaloids.

Increased problems associated with side effects and bacterial resistance of chemical drugs has prompted the research focus on herbal medicines in the past few decades. In the present investigation, the antimicrobial activity of the various parts of Avicennia marina (AM), a mangrove plant, has been evaluated. The plants were collected from the Jazan area of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Primary extracts of roots, stem, leaves, fruits, and seeds were made in ethanol and fractioned in ethanol, ethyl acetate, petroleum ether, chloroform, and water. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the extracts were determined against Bacillussubtilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. It has been observed that the chloroform extract of roots of the AM exhibited inhibitory effects against both S. aureus (MIC = 1.5 ± 0.03 mg/mL) and E. coli (MIC = 1.7 ± 0.01 mg/mL). The ethanolic extract of the AM roots has shown antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC = 10.8 ± 0.78 mg/mL), Bacillussubtilis (MIC = 6.1 ± 0.27 mg/mL), Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 2.3 ± 0.08 mg/mL), and Escherichia coli (MIC = 6.3 ± 0.28 mg/mL). The leaf extract of the AM in ethyl acetate showed antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli. Antifungal activity of these extracts was also investigated against Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans. Ethanolic extract of roots and seeds of the AM has shown antifungal activity against Aspergillus fumigatus when applied individually. Ethanolic extract of the AM fruits has shown an inhibitory effect on the growth of Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans. It is suggested that the plant extracts of AM have tremendous antimicrobial activity against a group of microbes, and this effect depends on both the plant part and the solvent used for extraction. Therefore, this plant can be considered to treat various diseases caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

ABSTRACTEndophytic fungi are fungi that live in plant tissues and do not harm the plants. Endophytic fungi can produce compounds that have the potential to be antibacterial. This study aims to examine the antibacterial activity of endophytic fungi isolated from the leaves and stems of the cat's whiskers plant (Orthosiphon aristatus) against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Cat's whiskers contain essential oils which are used as antibacterial against some pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The method used is experimentally in the laboratory to test the antibacterial activity of endophytic fungi isolates derived from cat's whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus) on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria using the hole / well method. In the research results obtained four samples of endophytic fungi extract isolated from the leaves and stems of the cat's whiskers plant (Orthosiphon aristatus) . The results of antibacterial research showed that endophytic mushroom extract isolated from cat's whiskers were more effective in inhibiting Escherichia coli bacteria compared to Staphylococcus aureus. In Escherichia coli bacteria the average value of inhibition is 5 mm whereas in Staphylococcus aureus bacteria the average value of inhibition is only 2 mm. So it can be seen that the endophytic fungus from the leaves of cat's whiskers has a better antibacterial effect than the endophytic fungus from the stems of the cat's whiskets. Conclusion, etidophytic fungi isolated from leaves and stems of cat's whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus) have an antibacterial effect on the growth of E. coli bacteria and are not effective against S. aureus bacteria.Keywords: Cat's whiskers (Orthasiphan aristatus), antibacterial activity, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. ABSTRAKJamur endofit ialah jamur yang hidup di dalam jaringan tumbuhan dan tidak membahayakan tumbuhan tersebut.
