Abstract

Penggunaan tanaman herbal untuk pengobatan dan pencegahan penyakit semakin populer sehingga penelitian mengenai senyawa aktif dari tumbuhan yang berkhasiat semakin menjadi perhatian. Umbi sarang semut (Myrmecodia pendens) mengandung senyawa aktif berupa terpenoid, tanin, fenol, flavonoid, dan saponin yang memiliki efek antijamur pada Candida albicans. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengukur konsentrasi hambat minimum (KHM) dan konsentrasi bunuh minimum (KBM) fraksi air M. pendens dan menguji perbedaan efek antijamur antara fraksi air M. pendens dan nistatin pada C. albicans ATCC 10231. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Juni?Juli 2015 di Laboratorium Penelitian Jurusan Kimia Fakultas MIPA Universitas Padjadjaran. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode mikrodilusi dan nilai KHM diukur dengan  enzyme linked immunosorbent assay reader dan nilai KBM diukur dengan pengujian pada media agar. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji-t dengan level signifikan p<0,05 untuk menentukkan perbedaan efek antijamur fraksi air M. pendens dengan nistatin pada C. albicans. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai KHM ialah 1.250 ?g/mL dan nilai KBM ialah 2.500 ?g/mL. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah nilai KHM serta KBM fraksi air M. pendens ialah 1.250 dan 2.500 ?g/mL dan terdapat perbedaan efek antijamur antara fraksi air dan nistatin terhadap C. albicans.

Ant hill (Myrmecodia pendens) contains active compounds such as terpenoid, tannin, phenol, flavonoid, and saponin which have antifungal effects on Candida albicans. The objectives of the study were to measure the value of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of water fraction of M. pendens and antifungal effect of water fractions of M. pendens against C. albicans compared to nystatin. This study used microdilution and the effects were measured with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay reader to determine MIC value, followed by agar media assay to determine  MFC. Data were analyzed using T test with significant level p < 0.05 to determine antifungal effect of water fractions of M. pendens against C. albicans compared to nystatin. The result showed that MIC value was 1.250 ?g/ml and MFC value was 2.500 ?g/ml. T test showed significant difference of % inhibition cells growth effect between M. pendens water fraction and nystatin (p=0.014 < 0.05). It is concluded that the M. pendens water fraction has an antifungal effect against C. albicans with MIC and MFC values of 1.250 and 2.500 ?g/ml.There are differences in antifungal effects between water fraction of M. pendens and nystatin against C. albicans.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Oral candidiasis is a fungal infection of the oral cavity that is caused by Candida albicans (C. albicans). Treatment of oral candidiasis usually uses topical agents such as nystatin, but it comes with side effects. Research on medicinal materials from plants can be an alternative to chemical drugs. It has increasingly become a concern such as the tuber of sarang semut (Myrmecodia pendens Merr. & L.M. Perry). The aim of the study is to determine the effect of ethyl acetate and hexane fractions of M. pendens against C. albicans. Methods: M. pendens methanol extract used maceration method. As much as 33 g concentrated M. pendens methanol extract was partitioned with a separating funnel based on the polarity of the substances to obtain ethyl acetate fraction. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) procedure was carried out by the microdilution method and measured by an ELISA reader. The minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) was obtained conclusively on Mueller Hinton agar media at concentrations above MIC of ethyl acetate fraction of M. pendens. Results: Ethyl acetate fraction had antifungal effect against C. albicans. The MIC and MFC of ethyl acetate fraction were 625 μg/ml and 1.250 μg/ml. Conclusion: Ethyl acetate fraction of M. pendens can inhibit the growth of C. albicans. M. pendens can be developed as the prevention agent of oral candidiasis.Keywords: antifungal; candida albicans; ethyl acetate fraction; Myrmecodia pendens

Abstract

Vitamin D has gained significant attention for its potential role in periodontal health. This scoping review investigates the evidence on dietary vitamin D interventions and assessments in periodontal diseases, examining their impact on periodontal outcomes and identifying research gaps. Using the PRISMA for Scoping Reviews protocols, data were sourced from PubMed and Scopus, including studies focused on dietary vitamin D interventions in periodontal diseases. Exclusions were non-peer-reviewed articles, reviews, animal studies, and inaccessible full-text articles. A total of 22 studies were included: 11 experimental and 11 observational. Among experimental studies, vitamin D supplementation (n=7) was the most common intervention. Observational studies employed various dietary assessment methods, including 24-hour dietary recall (n=2), food frequency questionnaires (FFQ) (n=3), dietary supplement intake (n=3), and combined methods (n=3). Experimental findings suggest that vitamin D supplementation may enhance periodontal health, particularly when paired with non-surgical treatments. Mixed findings from observational studies and limited research on surgical contexts underscore the complexity of establishing definitive conclusions. These findings emphasize the need for standardized methodologies and further investigation to better understand the role of vitamin D in periodontal health.

Abstract

Introduction: The main contents of mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana Linn.) is xanthone with antibacterial activity. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. actinomycetemcomitans) was a gram-negative, facultative anaerobic bacillus that causes periodontal diseases such as localised aggressive periodontitis (LAP). Mangosteen rind extract could inhibit the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans. This study was aimed to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of mangosteen rind extract against A. actinomycetemcomitans. Methods: This study was an experimental and in-vitro study of antimicrobial properties of mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana Linn.).The extract of mangosteen was made by the maceration method using 70% ethanol solvent. A. actinomycetemcomitans (ATCC 43718) obtained from Laboratorium of Microbiology Airlangga University Surabaya. This study used a microdilution method and analysed using the Enzyme Linked Immune Sorbent Assay (ELISA). The determination of the MIC was measured using the formula for cell inhibition percentage. Three concentrations higher than the MIC standard were cultured on the Mueller Hinton agar. The lowest concentration on agar which was not found any growth of the bacterial colonies was determined as the MBC. Results: The results of this study indicated that the MIC and MBC of mangosteen rind extract against A. actinomycetemcomitans were 195.3 ppm and 1562.5 ppm, respectively. Conclusion: Mangosteen rind extract can inhibit and bactericide the growth of A. actinomycetemcomitans.
