The activation test ofsambiloto was performed by using a dilution method included a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)and a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). Laying hens were distributed into five groups: normalgroup, APEC group with no treatment, and APEC group given 10%, 20%, 30% sambiloto extract for twoweeks. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and continued with the F test. Based on the results, the 30%extract has improved the hen day production (HDP) of laying hens infected with APEC.
