Summary: | Increased cases of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection become the world's
concern because of its high morbidity and mortality. One of the pathogenic bacteria is
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Antibiotics for MRSA
infections are difficult to obtain and expensive, which often complicates the patient.
Therefore, it is important to find new antibiotics that can kill resistant bacteria at
cheap prices and easy to obtain. These antibiotics may be obtained from medicinal
plants commonly used by communities such as orange jasmine or ‘kemuning’ in
Indonesia. Therefore, this study aims to determine the antimicrobial effects of orange
jasmine leaf extract (Murraya paniculata) on the growth of Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aereus (MRSA) bacteria in vitro.
This study based on laboratory experimental. The samples were ethanol
extract of Murraya paniculata leaves. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and
minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values were determined by dilution
method in Microbiology Laboratory of Faculty Medicine of Airlangga Univesity. The
concentration used for this study were 1000 mg/ml, 500 mg/ml, 250 mg/ml, 125
mg/ml, and 62,5 mg/ml. The result analyzed by description method.
At this study, the MIC could not be determined due to turbidity of the extract.
MBC could not be determined because even at the highest concentration of the extract,
bacterial colonies still to be found. But, the growth of bacteria is decreasing in line
with the higher concentration of extract. Thus, there is the possibility of orange
jasmine leaf extract having antimicrobial activity against MRSA in higher
concentration. |
