Abstract

A study on the influence of abiotic factors in producing protease by bacterial isolates M1-23 was conducted from May 2013 to December 2013 in the  Laboratory of Microbiology, Department of  Biology, Andalas University, Padang. This study aimed to find optimal conditions by isolate M1-23 to produce protease. This study consists of two stages. First stage used to produce the best protease and the second used to increase enzim homogenity. The result showed that the highest enzyme activity was  at medium temperature 550 C and pH 7.5. The best homogenity was produced at 125 rpm of agitation process.

Abstract

A study on the characterization of thermophilic bacteria in producing neutral protease enzyme has been conducted in the Laboratory of Microbiology, Biology Department, Andalas University from October 2013 to March 2014. The bacteria were isolated from a hot spring at Sungai Medang, Kerinci. Water samples  were collected purposively based on gradient temperature at the hot spring which ranged from 450C to 880C. Colony of the bacteria were inoculated using nutrient agar (NA). We obtained 10 isolates of neutral protease enzyme from the thermophilic bacteria with proteolytic index ranged from 0.27 to 3.89. The MIV-14 isolate has the highest proteolytic index which collected from 830C of the hot spring. Characterization of macroscopic, microscopic and biochemical tests were reported. Generally, the colonies have round shape, wavy edge, white, producing endospores and motile. Keywords: characterization, neutral protease, thermophilic bacteria.

Abstract

Research on the antibacterial potency of fresh extract from leaves of Jamaican cherry (Muntingia calabura L.) in inhibiting the growth of Shigella dysenteriae had been conducted in the Microbiology Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Andalas University. The study aimed to determine the potential of fresh extract from  Jamaican cherry leaves in inhibiting the growth of S. dysenteriae and to determine its Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) against S. dysenteriae. The results showed that the fresh extract of Jamaican cherry leaves was potent as an antimicrobial agent against pathogenic bacteria S. dysenteriae. It was shown through 12 - 14 mm diameter of inhibition zone which was classified as strong inhibition. The MIC was measured at 3.125% while MBC was undetermined. According to these findings, it can be concluded that the fresh extract from Jamaican cherry leaves was potent to inhibit the growth of S.dysentriae at 3.125% concentration, yet unable to kill it.
