Bamban (Donax canniformis (G. Forst.) K. Schum.) is one of the family Marantaceae plant that has many uses such as traditional medicine. Methanol extract of bamban leaves contains phenolic, tannins and saponins compounds. The purpose of this research is to determine the class of compounds that has antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) methanol extract of bamban leaves. This extract was prepared using maceration method with methanol solvent. Determination the class of compounds was initiated by bioautografi test in order to determine spots which has have antibacterial activity. Subsequently, the spot were identified the class of compound using reagent spray FeCl3 and H2SO4 10%. The determination of MIC and MBC using dilution method. Research showed there are three compounds that had antibacterial activity. These compounds were predicted as spot I and spot II which were phenolic compounds and spot III as a saponin compound. MIC and MBC value of the methanol extract of leaves bamban leaves 8% and 13%, respectively.

Background: Propolis is one of the useful bee colony products that have been used in traditional medicine for centuries. In this study, the physicochemical characters and their antibacterial effect of Iranian Propolis collected from Qazvin province was assessed.Methods: In this study, Thin Layer Chromatography and Vacuum Liquid Chromatography to detect different compounds of the extract have been used. In the initial evaluation of Propolis extract, it was found that the extract includes variable compounds with different polarity; so, the initial classification of extract with different polarity solvents was essential. Finally, 0.1 gr hydro alcoholic Propolis was injected to the HPLC by ultrasound. The antibacterial effect of Iranian ethanol extract Propolis was measured using a microdilution method against Pseudomonas aeruginosa: P. aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus: S.aureus standard strains and the minimum bactericidal and inhibitory concentration were defined.Results: Primary analysis of the ethanol extract by analytical Thin Layer Chromatography, demonstrated the presence of flavonoid and phenol in it. Minimum inhibitory concentration and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration for Staphylococcus aureus: S.aureus standard strain was 2.5mg/ml. The same procedure was done for Pseudomonas aeruginosa: P. aeruginosa standard strain and the Minimum inhibitory concentration and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration were 50mg/ml of Propolis extracts.  Conclusion: According to the results, the alcoholic extract of propolis from Qazvin province of Iran provides significant antimicrobial activity. Its powerful activity may be due to high total phenolic and flavonoid contents.Keywords: Iranian propolis, Antibacterial activity, Phenolic compounds, Flavonoid compound

Serum inhibitory and bactericidal titers were measured in nine healthy volunteers following single iv doses of ciprofloxacin 100, 150, and 200 mg. The median peak serum bactericidal titer (5 minutes following completion of a 30-minute infusion) against two highly susceptible strains of Escherichia coli ranged between 1:64 and 1:1024 and titers exceeded 1:8 for six hours for all dose levels. The bactericidal titers against two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and a methicillin-resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus were considerably lower, the median peak being 1:2 at all dose levels. Measured inhibitory and bactericidal titers at five minutes and one hour postinfusion were significantly greater than those predicted (measured serum ciprofloxacin concentration to minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] or minimum bactericidal concentration [MBC]) for only one strain of E. coli. Intravenous doses of ciprofloxacin 100–200 mg produce high and sustained serum bactericidal titers against highly susceptible bacteria; considerably lower levels of activity are seen against bacteria having higher MICs and MBCs but still considered susceptible to the drug.

Essential oils and volatile constituents extracted from Aromatic plants are frequently used in folk medicine for prevention and treatment of different human diseases. The urge to develop alternative treatment strategies follows three different directions. In the present study, an attempt has been planned to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Percentage Growth Inhibition of Essential oils against two Gram positive bacterial pathogens, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis. The Essential oils selected for the present study was collected from Sidha Medicine Shop, Tirupattur, Vellore district, Tamil Nadu, India. The Broth dilution method was used for the determination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Essential oils. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) studies were conducted by using various concentrations of Essential oils viz., 25 µl/ml, 50 µl/ml, 75 µl/ml and 100 µ/ml. The Essential oils exhibits inhibitory activity against Gram positive bacteria in all the concentrations. Among the seven Essential oils tested, Mahualongif oil has showed maximum percentage bacterial growth inhibition when compared to other Essential oils. The inhibitory activity of Mahualongif oil was observed more in Staphylococcus aureus when compared to Bacillus subtilis. For Staphylococcus aureus, lowest inhibitory percentage was noticed in Pungam oil and for Bacillus subtilis lowest inhibitory percentage was noticed in Coconut oil. Keywords: Essential oils, Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), Percentage bacterial growth inhibition, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus.

Similarly, the bacterial strains tested were most sensitive to fruit peels than especially against Staphylococcus aureus with inhibition zones (DIZ), minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values of 15.22±2.14 mm, 4.68 mg/mL and 37.5 mg/mL respectively. However, aqueous extract of cladodes have high antifongical activity particularly against Fusarium oxysporum with DIZ (20±0.2 mm), MIC (4.68mg/mL) and MFC (75 mg/mL) value

ABSTRACTCelery herbs (Apium graveolens L.) have content flavonoid, saponin and tannin. Flavonoids have anti-inflammatory properties, antioxidants and antibacterials. This study aims to determine whether the ethanol extract of celery herbs can be formulated into cream preparations, test the quality of preparations at concentrations of 5%, 10% and 15%. These methods of research are experimental laboratories by making the supply of self-sustaining herbal celery ethanol extract cream and testing the quality of the cream preparation,  as well as testing of antibacterial activity was carried out using the liquid dilution method and measuring value of  Minimum Inhibitory Concentration  and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration using a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. This research shows that celery herbs ethanol extract can be formulated into cream preparations, fulfilling quality test of organoleptic, scatter power, adhesion and cycling test, but that doesn’t meet the requirements for homogeneity tests and pH tests and has antibacterial activity which not only inhibits but kills bacteria in preparations of 5% and 15%Keywords: Cream Celery herb extract, Antibacterial, Staphylococcus aureus, UV-Vis spectrophotometer ABSTRAK Herba Seledri (Apium graveolens L.) memiliki kandungan flavonoid, saponin dan tannin.
