Abstract

Background: Antibiotic resistance has spurred the exploration of novel antibacterial agents, including endophytic bacteria from medicinal plants like Jatropha multifida L. (Betadine leaves), traditionally used as antiseptics. Objective: To assess the antibacterial activity of endophytic bacterial isolates from Betadine leaves against Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: A laboratory-based experimental study employing the paper disc diffusion method. Endophytic isolates were cultured in Nutrient Broth, and centrifuged supernatants were tested for inhibition zones compared to positive (chloramphenicol) and negative (Na.CMC) controls. Results: The endophytic isolate produced a 16.11 mm inhibition zone (moderate activity), while chloramphenicol showed 27.63 mm (strong activity). No inhibition was observed in the negative control. Conclusion: Endophytic bacteria from Betadine leaves exhibit potential as natural antibacterial agents, though their efficacy is lower than standard antibiotics. Further development requires active compound characterization and toxicity studies.

Abstract

Sungkai (Peronema canescens Jack.) is an indigenous Indonesian plant traditionally used for the treatment of fever, enhancing immune function, and managing hypertension. This study aimed to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of methanol extracts of Sungkai leaves using spectrophotometric analysis. Phenolic content was measured using the Folin–Ciocalteu reagent with gallic acid as the standard, while flavonoid content was quantified using quercetin as the reference compound. The results showed that the methanol extract of Sungkai leaves contained a total phenolic content of 255.760 ± 0.0146 mg GAE/g extract and a total flavonoid content of 52.014 ± 0.0301 mg QE/g extract. These findings indicate that Sungkai leaves represent a promising natural source of bioactive metabolites with potential health benefits.
