The antibacterial activity of three Cupressaceae plants (Thujaoccidentalis,ThujaorientalisandChamaecyparisobtusa) was tested against three bacteria using the agar diffusion method. The ether and ethylacetate fraction of crude methanol extract from the three plants showed potent antibacterial activity against the tested microorganisms. The result showed that Staphylococcus aureus revealed the most sensitivity among the tested bacteria. Thujaoccidentalisether fraction and Thujaorientalis hexane fraction exhibited the highest antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. E. coli was shown the highest MIC values compared to the other two tested bacteria, which indicates the lowest antibacterial activity against the bacterium. This study promises an interesting future for designing a potentially active antibacterial agent from the three Cupressaceae plants.

One of plants used by Indonesian people as a traditional medicine is saga plant (Abrus precatorius L.). This plant has medicinal properties as medication for thrush, cough and laryngitis. Chemical constituents contained in sage leaves which work as antibacterial are flavonoid and saponin. This study aims to determine the optimal concentration of saga leaves extract which can be formulated in a gel dosage form with qualified physical evaluation and has antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Saga leaves extract is prepared by maceration method using ethanol 70% as solvent, and then the extract obtained is preliminarily tested to see its antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with agar diffusion method. Gel formulation for thrush is made with dispersion method in three formulas with variants of active substance concentration that is FI (1%), FII (3%) and FIII (5%). Gel preparation antibacterial activity test is conducted with agar diffusion method as a plate cylinder. Based on this research, it was found that the extract of saga leaves which is positively made is efficacious as antibacterial and can be formulated into a gel preparation for thrush with optimal concentration in F III (5%), this is indicated by widest diameter of the inhibition area against Staphylococus aureus bacteria

Oral hygiene and dental health are very important, there are various kinds of patogen  bacteria in the oral cavity, including the bacteria that cause thrush, Staphylococcus aureus. Gambir is the result of extraction containing polyphenol compounds. The main components contained in gambir consist of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins and saponins. The use of gambir as a mouthwash preparation is an alternative to replace mouthwash preparations which generally contain an antiseptic in the form of alcohol which can trigger oral cancer. This research is to formulate gambir as a mouthwash and determine the differences in the effectiveness of antibacterial on the growth of Staphylococcus aureus with variations in the concentration of 5%, 10%, 15%. Antibacterial activity test using NA media with agar diffusion method. Physical requirements tests include organoleptic tests, pH tests and viscosity testsshowed that the preparation of 5%, 10% and 15% gambir mouthwash had a pH outside the optimum bacterial growth range of 5. Viscosity of mouthwash preparations of 1.30-5.10 Cp. The antibacterial activity of Staphylococcus aureus in F1 did not produce inhibitory zones, F2 was 5.46 mm, F3 was 9.60 mm and F4 was 10.76 mm while in f5 the positive control was 12.10 mm. Conclusio of this study is gambier mouthwash concentration of 5%, 10% and 15% can inhibit the growth of staphylococcus aureus bacteria.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the most common bacteria causing nosocomial infections with high levels of resistance to available antibiotics. So, it is necessary to search for new compounds to solve this problem. Various studies showed antibacterial activity of rambutan peel but for Rambutan Binjai peel extract that are from Indonesia has never been studied against the MRSA. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity, the value of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) using agar diffusion method. The concentration of rambutan peel ethanol extract at as much as 62.5 mg/ml showed the inhibitory diameter i.e 21.3 ± 2.4 mm. MIC and MBC were in the same range, which was between 0.98 (mg/ml) to 1.95 (mg/ml). The activity strength of tetracycline against the extract was at 1:50. This revealed that Rambutan Binjai peel extract had great potency as antibacterial agent to MRSA. Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 17(2): 197-203, 2018 (December)
