Abstract

Centella asiatica contains some secondary metabolic compounds, e.g. tannin, alkaloid, flavonoid, saponin, and triterpenoid, known as medicinal plants as well, one of which is as a anti-bacterial. The present study aimed at examining the activities of Centella asiatica extract towards the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The extraction of C. asiatica was done by using ethanol and ethyl acetate solvents and the activity test employed seaweed diffusion. The hindrance power of Centella asiatica extract was tested in 30%, 50%, and 95% and the data were analyzed qualitatively with the standard issued by the Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute and quantitatively with ANOVA. It shows that Centella asiatica extract in the ethyl acetate can hinder the growth of Staphylococcus aureus in the acetate concentration of 50% and 70% at the sensitive level and Escherichia coli at the intermediate level in the extract concentration of 50% and 70%. However, Centella asiatica activities in the ethanol solvent hinders the growth of either Centella asiatica or Escherichia coli with resistant category in the extract concentration of 70%. The hindrance power of Centella asiatica extract in ethyl acetate in the growth of Staphylococcus aureus is significantly more effective than that of Centella asiatica extract in the ethanol solvent

Abstract

Phosphate solubilizing rhizobacteria can be used as a component in biofertilizer formulations to increase local and national food production without causing adverse risks to the environment compared to the use of chemical fertilizers. In this regard, screening and identification of phosphate solubilizing bacteria from the rhizosphere of several mangrove species that grow on the coast of Lombok Island has been carried out. The method of isolation used is the Pikovskaya method. Screening and identification activities have obtained 5 isolates of mangrove rhizosphere bacteria (BRM) which are indicated by their ability to form clear zones on Pikovskaya media, namely isolates BRM1 and BRM4 (isolated from the rhizosphere of Avicennia marina), BRM2 and BRM3 (isolated from the rhizosphere of Rhizophora apicullata), BRM5 (isolated from the rhizosphere of R. stylosa). All rhizobacteria isolates were identified as Gram-positive bacteria. Molecular analysis based on the comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences of isolates with the genome database at GenBank (NCBI) using Mega 10 software, showed that all BRM isolates occupied the same cluster as bacterial species from the Genus Paenibacillus in the dendrogram of the phylogenetic tree, namely Paenibacillus sp. JWLB1 strain, Paenibacillus sp. Strain NO13, P. cineris strain cu1-7, P. favisporus strain CHP14, with genetic distance ranging from 1.3 to 1.4. Many species of the Genus Paenibacillus are currently known to play an important roles as plant growth-promoting bacteria. The BRM isolates obtained in this study can be further developed as a biofertilizer component (inoculant) in saline and dryland agriculture.
