Abstract  In Indonesia, in 2006, the prevalence of infections due to MRSA was 23.5%. Physalis minima L. plants are known to have antimicrobial activity because they contain compounds withaferin A, which can induce programmed cell death. This research was to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Ciplukan (Physalis minima L.) extract in Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. Dilution test with Mueller-Hinton broth medium used for measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Ciplukan  fruit extract was dissolved in distilled water, and poured into a test tube with a certain concentration (0.9 g/mL (90%); 0.3 g/mL (45%); 0.15 g/mL (22.5%); 0.075 g/mL (11.25%) and 0.0375 g/mL (5.625%). After being incubated for 24 hours, the bacteria in the test tube were plated on nutrient agar plates to determine the MBC. The MIC cannot be determined, because the medium in the dilution test tube is disturbed by the color of the extract so that turbidity cannot be observed. From the observations of the minimum bactericidal concentration, MBC of the Ciplukan (Physalis minima  L.) fruit extract against MRSA was in the P1 tube or equivalent to 0.9 g / ml (90%).Keywords             : Physalis minima L., Antimicrobial, Ciplukan, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Withaferin ACorrespondence   : [email protected]

A series of 1ʹ-acetoxychavicol acetate analogues were synthesised and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) using broth microdilution technique. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was used to determine whether the compounds had potential as inhibitory agents against the MRSA ATCC 43300, and the compounds with antimicrobial potential (<2000 μg ml–1) were tested for minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). Based on this assay, compound 1 exhibited potent antimicrobial activity with MIC value of 250 μg ml–1. Meanwhile, compounds 2 and 13 showed the moderate activity with MIC values of 500 μg ml–1, respectively.

Ekstraksi dilakukan dengan cara maserasi menggunakan pelarut etanol. Pengujian bioaktivitas antibakteri menggunakan metode dilusi cair. Hasil uji bioaktivitas antibakteri dianalisa menggunakan metode Oneway Anova, dilanjutkan dengan Uji Tukey. Uji bioaktivitas antibakteri menunjukkan ekstrak memiliki aktivitas antibakteri. Pada bakteri Staphylococcus aureus konsentrasi ekstrak 90% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC, MRSA pada konsentrasi ekstrak 30% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC, dan pada Salmonella typhi pada konsentrasi ekstrak 30% ditetapkan sebagai nilai MIC. Data Anova menunjukkan bahwa pertumbuhan koloni tiap konsentrasi ekstrak signifikan artinya tiap konsentrasi berbeda nyata dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri, tetapi nilai MBC belum dapat ditentukan karena masih mengalami pertumbuhan koloni pada hasil pengujian MBC.Kata kunci : Galaxaura oblongata, bioaktivitas, senyawa kimia, antibakteri. ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration of Galaxaura oblongata ethanol extract against Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), and Salmonella typhi in influencing the growth of Staphylococcus aureus MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), and Salmonella typhi. Extraction was carried out by maceration using ethanol solvent. The liquid dilution method was used as an antibacterial bioactivity testing. The antibacterial bioactivity test results showed that the extract had antibacterial activity. In Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, concentrations extract of 90% were determined as MIC values, MRSA of concentrations extract of 30 were determined as MIC values, and in Salmonella typhi at concentrations extract of 30% set as MIC values. The antibacterial bioactivity test results were analyzed using One Way Anova method, followed by the Tukey Test. Anova's data showed that the growth of colonies in each concentration of extract was significant, meaning that each concentration was significantly different in inhibiting bacterial growth. However, the MBC value could not be determined because it still experienced colony growth in the results of MBC testing.Keywords: Galaxaura oblongata, bioactivity, chemical compound, antibacterial.

Antimicrobial bioassay-guided fractionation of the endophytic fungi Neofusicoccum australe led to the isolation of a new unsymmetrical naphthoquinone dimer, neofusnaphthoquinone B (1), along with four known natural products (2–5). Structure elucidation was conducted by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic methods, and the antimicrobial activity of all the natural products was investigated, revealing 1 to be moderately active towards methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 16 µg/mL.

In this paper, synthesis and antimicrobial studies of 31 novel coumarin-substituted pyrazole derivatives are reported. Some of these compounds have shown potent activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) as low as 3.125 µg/mL. These molecules are equally potent at inhibiting the development of MRSA biofilm and the destruction of preformed biofilm. These results are very significant as MRSA strains have emerged as one of the most menacing pathogens of humans and this bacterium is bypassing HIV in terms of fatality rate.
