Abstract

Infectious disease is a major public health problem in developed and developing countries. One of the bacteria that can cause infection is Staphylococcus aureus. Along with an increase in bacterial resistance, one of which is caused by the inappropriate use of antibiotics, it reduces the effectiveness and performance of treatment methods. Alternative medicine can use pure coconut oil (virgin coconut oil) which contains lauric acid as an antibacterial and olive oil which contains oleuropein as an antibacterial. Experimental research using the Kirby Bauer diffusion disc method by measuring the diameter of the inhibition zone of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The materials tested were various types of pure coconut oil and olive oil on the market with 50%, 75% and 100% inhibition zones. In the inhibition test of virgin coconut oil and olive oil, the bacterial inhibition zone was only found at a concentration of 100%, while at a concentration of 50% and 75% there was no bacterial inhibition of the two tested materials. The conclusion is that there is an effect of virgin coconut oil and olive oil on the inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria at a concentration of 100%.

Abstract

Skin infection is one of the most common diseases in Indonesia. The most common skin and soft tissue infections caused by pyogenic bacteria are S. aureus and group A hemolytic Streptococcus, including S. pyogenes (Perdoski, 2017). One of the bacteria that often causes skin infections is Staphylococcus aureus. One of the plants that has long been believed to have good antibacterial activity against bacteria is garlic (Allium sativum) (Duman, 2008). This study used Kirby Bauer diffusion using NA and MHA media. Garlic extract has various concentrations of 20%, 25% and 30% with clindamycin as a positive control and distilled water as a negative control. The results of this study stated that no inhibition zone was formed, which was indicated by the absence of antibacterial activity in garlic extract on Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The conclusion is that garlic extract extracted with 99% methanol does not have the effectiveness of inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.
