Abstract

The infectious disease COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus can infect all age groups. The symptoms that arise can vary from no symptoms to severe and critical symptoms. Differences in clinical symptoms can occur due to differences in the distribution, maturation and function of the SARS-CoV-2 virus receptors. These clinical symptoms will determine the severity of COVID-19. This study aims to analyze the relationship between age and clinical symptoms and the severity of COVID-19 in Bengkulu Province in 2020. This study used an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were taken using a consecutive sampling technique and a total of 109 subjects were obtained who were COVID-19 patients in Bengkulu Province from March to December 2020. Assessment of clinical symptoms used COVID-19 epidemiological investigations. The degree of severity is determined based on the Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of COVID-19 by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia. The relationship between the two variables was analyzed using the Spearman Rank test. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant relationship between the age factor of COVID-19 patients in determining the severity of COVID-19 (p=0.000; p <0.05).

Abstract

Abstract. Rizqoh D, Sipriyadi, Suryani UH, Putri CN, Agustin M, Taurustya H, Lestari N, Sariyanti M. 2024. Exploring the antibacterial activity of endophytic bacteria from Andaliman (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC.) against Bacillus subtilis. Biodiversitas 25: 700-707. Infectious diseases are still one of the global health problems. Increasing antibiotic resistance against several pathogenic microbes causes antibiotics to be less effective in treating infectious diseases. One pathogenic bacteria that causes infection is Bacillus subtilis, which causes bacteremia, septicemia, and endocarditis. Therefore, searching for new alternative antibiotics is urgently needed to overcome bacterial resistance. Andaliman (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC.) extract produces antimicrobial bioactive compounds. Thus, this study aims to explore endophytic bacteria from Z. acanthopodium and determine their antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis. This study used a qualitative experimental method, namely isolation of endophytic bacteria, characterization of endophytic bacteria colonies and cells, antagonistic test against B. subtilis, extraction of compounds from endophytic bacteria, and determine Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of crude extract of endophytic bacteria against B. subtilis. This study showed that 16 endophytic isolates from Z. acanthopodium could inhibit the growth of B. subtilis, and potential isolates were EA7 and EA26, which have Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) at 40%, and EB6 at 80%.
