Penyakit virus kuning dan bercak daun Cercospora merupakan dua penyakit penting yang menjadi kendala dalam budidaya cabai merah besar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji konsorsium bakteri antagonis Pseudomonas aeruginosa dan Bacillus cereus dalam mengendalikan penyakit virus kuning dan bercak daun Cercospora pada cabai merah besar serta pengaruhnya terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman cabai merah besar sendiri. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Oktober 2020 - Desember 2020 di lahan tumpangsari bawang merah dan cabai, Desa Ubalan, Kecamatan Dampit, Kabupaten Malang. Persiapan penelitian meliputi survei lokasi, persiapan alat dan bahan, pengacakan perlakuan, dan penentuan tanaman sampel. Pelaksanaan penelitian meliputi pengaplikasian larutan isolat bakteri antagonis di lapang, pengamatan mingguan, dan pengolahan data. Penelitian disusun menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan 9 perlakuan dan 3 ulangan. Data dianalisis menggunakan sidik ragam ANOVA dan uji lanjut DMRT (Duncan Multiple Range Test) pada taraf 5% menggunakan software DSAASTAT. Konsorsium P7 (Pseudomonas aeruginosa + Bacillus cereus 13) lebih efektif dalam menekan penyakit virus kuning, sedangkan perlakuan konsorsium P8 (Bacillus cereus 12 + Bacillus cereus 13) lebih efektif dalam menekan penyakit bercak daun Cercospora. Perlakuan konsorsium tidak memberikan pengaruh terhadap tinggi dan jumlah daun. Namun, konsorsium P7 mampu meningkatkan bobot tanaman cabai meskipun secara statistik tidak berbeda dengan perlakuan lainnya.

Kasturi (Mangifera casturi) is a typical plant of South Kalimantan which has only been used for consumption because of its distinctive taste and aroma. Mangifera indica, which is in the same genus as Mangifera casturi, shows antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, and antidiarrheal activity, so it is suspected that this plant has the same activity. Crude methanol extract from the meat of Casturi mango was fractionated using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol-water. Testing for antibacterial activity and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were carried out using the disk diffusion method (Kirby-Bauer). The positive control used was Chloramphenicol because it has an antibacterial range that is rather broad and the negative control used was 10% DMSO. The fraction that had the greatest antibacterial activity was the ethyl acetate fraction; with the formation of a clear zone of 7.98mm against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 7.52mm against Bacillus cereus, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 2mg/mL. The next test was a cell leakage analysis which revealed an increase in absorbance at MIC 1 and MIC 2. The Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) results from the ethyl acetate fraction revealed the presence of phenolic, flavonoid, and glycoide content, with the highest compound concentration of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural. Keywords: Antibacterial, Extract, Ethyl acetate, fraction, Mangifera casturi Abstrak Kasturi (Mangifera casturi) merupakan tumbuhan khas Kalimantan Selatan yang selama ini hanya dimanfaatkan untuk dikonsumsi karena rasa dan aromanya yang khas. Mangifera indica yang masih satu genus dengan Mangifera casturi menunjukkan aktivitas antioksidan, antibakteri, antijamur, dan antidiare sehingga diduga tanaman ini memiliki aktivitas yang sama. Ekstrak kasar metanol daging buah mangga kasturi difraksinasi dengan menggunakan n-heksan, etil asetat, dan metanol-air. Pengujian aktivitas antibakteri dan kadar hambat minimum dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode difusi cakram (Kirby- Bauer). Kontrol positif yang digunakan adalah Chloramfenikol karena memiliki spektrum antibakteri yang cukup luas dan kontrol negatif yang digunakan adalah DMSO 10%. Fraksi yang memiliki aktivitas antibakteri terbesar pada penelitian ini adalah fraksi etil asetat dengan terbentuknya zona bening sebesar 7,98mm terhadap Pseudomonas aeruginosa dan 7,52mm terhadap Bacillus cereus dengan kadar hambat minimum 2mg/mL. Uji selanjutnya adalah uji kebocoran sel yang menyatakan adanya peningkatan absorbansi pada KHM 1 dan KHM 2. Hasil pemeriksaan Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) dari fraksi etil asetat menyatakan adanya kandungan fenolik, flavonoid, dan glikosida dengan senyawa tertinggi yaitu 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural. Kata kunci: Antibakteri, Ekstrak, Etil asetat, Fraksi, Mangifera castur

Abstract With the increase of general knowledge and the advancement of science and technology, antibacterial substances were used more than antibiotics. In our current study, the antibacterial virtues of CFO/BiOI nanocomposite were investigated due to its high importance on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus. MIC, MBC , Disk Diffusion and IC50 tests Cefalotin (CF), Amoxicillin (AMX), Gentamicin (GM), Trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole (SXT) and Ceftriaxone (CRO) antibiotics in concentration 30W, 10i, 10t , 25h and 30 were used to find the antibacterial properties of the synthesized nanocomposite, respectively. For the synthesis of nanocomposites polyethylene glycol (PEG) and sulfonic acid was used as a solvent. It is noteworthy that the synthesis was performed by heat dissolution method without the presence of surfactant. Also, various techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction(XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), High resolution mapping and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX) have been used to determine the properties of produced nanocomposites. SEM test results showed that the formed nanoparticles were globular and their size was limited area of 22 to 34 nm. The results showed CFO / BiOI nanocomposite exhibits strong significant biological activity against Bacillus cereus. The results of MBC (Minimum Bactericidal Concentration) and MIC (Minimum Inhibition Concentration) tests for CFO/BiOI nanocomposites on bacteria were examined in the range of 0.12-0.48 mg/ml and 0.06 to 0.24 mg/ml respectively. According to the results, the minimum IC50 value was determined at a concentration of 0.061 mg/ml. On the other hand, the most resisting and susceptible bacteria in this method were Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus, respectively. These findings are identical to those of a prior study on CoFe2O4 nanoparticles antibacterial properties. MBC of the nanocomposites, 50 µl from all the tubes that showed no obvious bacterial growth were distributed on BHI agar plates and incubated for 24 h at 37 ◦C. The MBC endpoint is defined as the lowest concentration which killed 98% of the bacterial population.

In the present study we evaluated the composition and antimicrobial activity of various rose oils from Bulgaria, Turkey, Morocco, Iran and China against three Gram-positive, three Gram-negative bacteria and two yeasts. The composition of the studied essential oils was determined by GC and GC/MS. Citronellol was the major compound of all the oil samples: 31.7% (Chinese oil); 32.6% (Iranian oil); 33.6% (Moroccan oil); 34.9% (Bulgarian oil) and 38,7 % (Turkish oil). For the Bulgarian oil we could determine the highest activity against all microorganisms. Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778 was the most sensitive strain to Bulgarian rose oil (MCC 128 μg/mL) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9627 and P. fluorescens were more resistible strains (MCC 4096 μg/mL). Antimicrobial activity of rose oils is mainly due to the action of oxygenated acyclic monoterpenes citronellol, geraniol, nerol and linalool, their acetate derivatives and the phenolic compound eugenol.

The interaction between imipenem, a carbapenem antibiotic, and two representative beta-lactamases has been studied. The first enzyme was beta-lactamase I, a class-A beta-lactamase from Bacillus cereus; imipenem behaved as a slow substrate (kcat. 6.7 min-1, Km 0.4 mM at 30 degrees C and at pH 7) that reacted by a branched pathway. There was transient formation of an altered species formed in a reversible reaction; this species was probably an acyl-enzyme in a slightly altered, but considerably more labile, conformation. The kinetics of the reaction were investigated by measuring both the concentration of the substrate and the activity of the enzyme, which fell and then rose again more slowly. The second enzyme was the chromosomal class-C beta-lactamase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa; imipenem was a substrate with a low kcat. (0.8 min-1) and a low Km (0.7 microM). Possible implications for the clinical use of imipenem are considered.
