Abstract

Salmonella typhi s a gram-negative bacteria in the form of coccus, is motile and pathogenic, which can cause a salmonellosis (typhoid fever). Treatment of thiophid fever generally uses paracetamol and chloramphenicol. The development of traditional medicine, such as earthworms and turmeric, which is believed to cure typhoid fever. This study aims to determine the activity of a combination of extracts of earthworm and turmeric on the growth of Salmonella typhi. This study applied an experimental laboratory method. The treatment group consisted of a combination of earthworm extract and turmeric rhizome extract at various concentrations (40%: 60%; 50%: 50%; 60%: 40%), solely earthworm extract, solely turmeric rhizome extract and chloramphenicol 30 µg as a control positive. Earthworm extract and turmeric rhizome extract were prepared using maceration method with 96% ethanol solvent. Antibacterial activity test was performed in vitro using disk diffusion method against Salmonella typhi for 24 hours incubated at 37˚C and then the inhibitory zone (mm) was measured. The inhibitory zone was further analyzed using One Way ANOVA statistical analysis. The results showed that turmeric rhizome single extract better combination of earthworm extract and turmeric rhizome extract could inhibit Salmonella typhi growth optimally at a concentration of 50%: 50% with inhibitory value of 11.1 mm which was closer to the value of inhibition positive control ( 21.93 mm) compared with the other groups (p = 0.000).

Abstract

Penuaan kulit merupakan proses biologis kompleks yang melibatkan stres oksidatif, penurunan kolagen, peradangan kronis, dan peningkatan aktivitas enzim pemecah matriks seperti MMPs. Dalam upaya mencari bahan aktif alami yang efektif dan berkelanjutan untuk kosmetik anti-aging, produk fermentasi susu seperti kefir dan yoghurt mulai mendapat perhatian. Keduanya mengandung berbagai komponen bioaktif seperti probiotik, peptida, eksopolisakarida, asam organik, dan senyawa antioksidan yang dapat menurunkan stres oksidatif, meningkatkan sintesis kolagen, serta memperbaiki fungsi barrier kulit. Kajian literatur ini bertujuan menelaah mekanisme biologis kefir dan yoghurt dalam memperlambat penuaan kulit, mencakup aktivitas antioksidan, antiinflamasi, modulasi mikrobioma, dan stimulasi matriks dermis. Berdasarkan hasil telaah pustaka terbaru, kefir dan yoghurt terbukti berpotensi besar sebagai bahan aktif kosmetik anti-aging yang ramah lingkungan dengan keunggulan pada keberlanjutan proses fermentasi dan pemanfaatan limbah biomassa. Namun, dibutuhkan penelitian lanjut mengenai formulasi topikal terstandar dan uji klinis untuk memastikan efektivitas serta keamanan penggunaannya.
