Abstract

Tamarind leaves (Tamarindus indica L.) contain compounds including saponins, flavonoids, and tannins. The content of tannin compounds in tamarind leaf extract (Tamarindus indica L.) is known to be used as an antidiarrheal bioagent. This study aims to identify antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli bacteria based on the potential of tamarind leaves (Tamarindus indica L.) as an anti-diarrheal bioagent. The design of this research is an experimental laboratory with randomized group design. The samples in this study were divided into 2 control groups, namely negative control (sterile aquades), positive control (ampiciilin), and 3 treatment groups, namely old and young tamarind leaf extract groups with each concentration of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% with the number of samples for each treatment group as much as 3. Test the effectiveness of antimicrobials using the solid dilution method. The effectiveness of antimicrobials is demonstrated by the large diameter of the inhibitor on Muller Hilton Agar media. The results showed that the inhibitory power of young tamarind leaf extract ranged from 13.8 mm to 14.9 mm, while the inhibitory power of old tamarind leaf extract ranged from 10.7 mm to 11.9 mm, so that the inhibitory power of young tamarind leaf ethanol extract was greater than the type of old tamarind leaf ethanol’s extract.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the physiological response of Oreochromis niloticus at different water temperatures using laboratory experimental methods (experimental research carried out under controlled conditions and allows for systematic and accurate measurements). The observation method uses descriptive analysis. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that when Oreochromis niloticus is in a water environment with low temperatures (140 C and 200C), the movement of the operculum will decrease. This is due to an increase in dissolved oxygen levels and cold-water temperatures will affect the metabolism of the fish body. Whereas when Oreochromis niloticus is in a water environment with high temperatures (320 C, and 380 C), operculum movement will increase. The increase in operculum movement is caused by a decrease in dissolved oxygen levels.
