Kaempferia galanga L. or known as Kencur is an herbal plant that is widely used by people with various benefits such as influenza in infants, headaches, sprains, relieving fatigue, inflammation of the stomach, coughing, improving menstruation, inflammation of children's ears, dirty blood, eyes aches, diarrhea, and colds. However, studies that have used Kencur as an antibacterial against Staphylococcus aureus have never been done. Therefore, scientific research is needed to determine the ability of Kencur extract as an antibacterial that inhibits the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. 3 extraction methods were used, with the aim of determining the right method for obtaining Kencur bioactive compounds as antibacterial. The three extraction methods used were the press method, the infusion method, and the maceration method using methanol as a solvent. Each extract obtained from various extraction methods will be tested for antibacterial by observing the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. It was found that with the press method there were no clear zones or growth inhibition zones of Staphylococcus aureus. Using the extract from the infusion method, the same thing is obtained, namely there is no clear zone or growth inhibition zone of Staphylococcus aureus. However, it is different when given an extract from the maceration method using methanol solvent, a 17 mm clear zone is formed but there is no inhibition zone. This can indicate that, methanol extract from Kencur can inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus (17 mm).

Introduction: Today, disinfection of surfaces by using antimicrobial agents is critical for the prevention and control of pathogens and reduction of infection in hospital. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effects of two disinfectants against Staphylococcus aureus isolated from the NICU of Shahid Sadoughi Hospital of Yazd in 2017. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive cross sectional study, bacterial culture of samples collected from different surfaces of the NICU and S. aureus isolates were identified using conventional biochemical tests. Peracetic acid and chlorine dioxide various concentrations were used as disinfectants. Their effects against Staphylococcus aureus were determined by Standard disc diffusion method. Data were analyzed by linear mixed models in SPSS version 23. Results: 39.39% of samples were found to be S. aureus infected. The mean diameter of growth inhibition zone for peracetic acid 0.1% was significantly lower than that for peracetic acid 0.2%, and peracetic acid 0.1% was significantly higher than that for chlorine dioxide (P < 0.001). The comparison of growth inhibition zone diameters for peracetic acid 0.1% and chlorine dioxide disinfectants showed that the average diameter of the inhibition zone created by peracetic acid 0.1% was significantly higher than that created by chlorine dioxide. The most effective disinfectant on S. aureus strains isolated was peracetic acid 0.2% and the least effective disinfectant was chlorine dioxide. Conclusion: In health care facilities with S. aureus infection, peracetic acid 0.2% can be used effectively to reduce nosocomial infection rate.

Backgraund. Officinal basis for the antibiotic ointments according to the 4th Yugoslav Pharmacopoeia is a hydrophobic base containing only aliphatic hydrocarbons. The fact that antibiotics are predominantly not lipophylic raises the question about the suitability of that particular type of the base for the manufacturing of antibiotic ointments. Recent studies of the lipid analysis of the skin corneal layer indicated that lipids had shown the bilamellar organization in the skin intercorneal space. Such structural organization could be seen in the ambiphylic bases whose structure was based on carefully selected emulsifier couple, consisting of the lyotropic and thermotropic liquid crystals. The aim of this study was to test the velocity of antibiotics (klindamycin hydrochloride, erythromycin base and chloramphenicol) release from the hydrophobic ointment-type bases, and from ambiphylic bases of anionic and non-ionic types. Methods. Membrane-free agar diffusion test as the basic method for testing the release velocity in vitro and Staphylococcus aureus as the strain highly susceptible to the chosen antibiotics were used. All the analyzed samples were manufactured as the suspension-type ointments. Results. The highest growth inhibition zone of the Staphylococcus aureus strain for all three analyzed antibiotics was achieved from the non-ionogenic ambiphylic base; the clear growth inhibition zone area for Staphylococcus aureus strain in the preparations containing anionic ambiphylic base was smaller by 10-31.28%, and in the preparations containing aliphatic hydrocarbon-type base, the decrease was 11.46-31.28%, compared to the results achieved with the non-ionogenic ambiphylic base. Conclusion. The optimal release velocity for the analyzed antibiotics was achieved from the non-ionic ambiphylic base.

Background: The use of plant extracts prepared from medicinal plants is common in the developing countries. Meanwhile, due to the resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics, researchers are looking to discover new antimicrobials. Medicinal plants play an essential role in this regard. Objectives: This study was aimed at investigating the antimicrobial properties of various extracts of Rhazya stricta plant against Salmonella typhimurium. Methods: Methanolic, aqueous, ethanolic, hydroalcoholic, and ethyl acetate extracts of R. stricta were prepared. S. typhimurium strains were isolated from poultry feces. The microdilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of this plant. The diameter of the growth inhibition zone using was determined using Whatman paper. Results: The lowest MIC against S. typhimurium was obtained from the hydroalcoholic solvent with 3.1 ppm. The most effective extraction solvent to inhibit the growth of S. typhimurium was the hydroalcoholic type with an average growth inhibition zone diameter of 12.25 mm, followed by the ethanolic extract with a growth inhibition zone diameter of 12.12 mm. Conclusions: According to the results of research and increasing resistance to synthetic antibacterial substances, it seems that R. stricta plant with the help of hydroalcoholic solvent, can be considered an effective plant in eliminating some bacteria, including S. typhimurium.
