Abstract

Recent research showed that the rose-like purslane (Portulaca grandiflora) magenta flower variety herbs ethanolic extract has antimicrobial potency. This research aims to determine the purslane herbs (Portulaca grandiflora) extract ointment antimicrobial potency against Staphylococcus aureus. Ointment base formulation contained of vaseline album, cera alba, adeps lanae, paraffin liquidum, cetyl alcohol, nipagin, and nipasol. Extract ointment was prepared by mixing the extract with 10, 20, and 30% concentrations into the ointment base. The antimicrobial activity test conducted in vitro using the paperdisk difussion method. The antimicrobial activity test result of the three extract concentrations of ointments showed that the 30% extract ointment had antimicrobial effect on Staphylococcus aureus with 0.81±0.03cm of clear zone. The antimicrobial activity test demonstrated that 30% purslane herbs (Portulaca grandiflora) extract ointment has a potency as antimicrobial against Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract

Garbage and flooding are environmental problems that need attention. One solution to dealing with organic waste and flooding is the creation of biopore absorption holes (LRB). Organic waste can be processed into compost with the help of soil animals such as Collembola. The number of soil animals (Collembola) in the biopore hole is influenced by the type of waste used to fill the hole. The aim of this research was to determine the abundance of Collembola in LRBs containing organic waste and animal waste. Used 9 LRBs made from perforated pralon material.  LRB group A which contains organic waste only (3 LRB), LRB B which contains organic waste and cow dung (3 LRB) and LRB C which contains organic waste and goat dung (3 LRB). The results of this research show that the LRB composting process has occurred with the help of Collembola. Four types of Collembola were found that were active in biopore infiltration holes (LRB), namely Pseudosinella sp, Ceocobrya sp, Cyphoderus sp and Isotoma sp. There were differences in the abundance of Collembola in LRB sets containing organic waste and animal waste. The Diversity Index value H' < 1, indicates that species diversity is low.
