Abstract

The plant known as kersen leaf (Muntingia calabura L) is quite widespread in tropical regions and is frequently used by the local population as a traditional antibacterial because it has a number of pharmacological properties, one of which is the ability to kill Escherichia coli germs. The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether cherry leaf extract (Muntingia calabural L) inhibits Escherichia coli growth and whether cherry leaf extract (Muntingia calabural L) has an antibacterial impact on Escherichia coli. This study tested the ethanol extract of cherry leaves (Muntingia calabural L) against Escherichia coli bacteria using an experimental laboratory method. The collected data were examined using nonparametric statistical analysis known as ANOVA. According to the results of the phytochemical research, Kersen leaves contain tannins and saponins but no flavonoids. Escherichia coli antibacterial studies revealed that kersen leaf extract has a growth-inhibiting impact on these germs. As the concentration of the extract increased, a larger inhibition zone formed. Kersen leaves contain tannins and saponins, and the extract from these leaves can be used to treat bacteria such as Escherichia coli.

Kidney failure has become a serious problem for public health in the world. This population increase is due to the lack of public awareness of living a healthy lifestyle and the increasing incidence of diseases which are risk factors.

The number of participants was 30 people who were health cadres and community leaders. This activity includes counseling and discussion. The results of Community Service Activities (PKM) provide information and knowledge about kidney failure. Healthy living behaviors that are still not implemented include lack of exercise, consumption of instant food and packaged drinks. This habit has been understood by the public as a risk factor for kidney failure. Conclusion: Increased risk factors from a history of disease and less healthy living behavior need to be of concern to all related parties, namely individuals, community leaders/health cadres, and related government institutions, especially community health centers as primary health service locations that carry out promotive and preventive efforts. It is necessary to identify two historical diseases that are risk factors for kidney failure, namely diabetes mellitus and hypertension
