Abstract

Health is a very important part of human life, especially oral health. Diseases that occur due to lack of oral hygiene include gingivitis caused by Streptococcus sanguinis bacteria. Chlorhexidine is a solution that is used to clean the oral cavity and prevent plaque formation on the teeth. An alternative mouthwash that comes from nature is celery leaves (Apium graveolens L.) with secondary metabolites, namely alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins and tannins. This study was conducted to determine the antibacterial activity of celery leaf ethanol extract against Streptococcus sanguinis bacteria at concentrations of 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 100% using the disc diffusion method with chlorhexidine as a positive control and Aquadest as a negative control. The celery leaf extraction method was carried out by maceration method using 96% ethanol solvent. The results of the inhibition test with a concentration of 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 100% celery leaf ethanol extract can inhibit the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis bacteria with an average diameter of the inhibition zone in the negative control group (aquadest) is 0 mm, 12.5% concentration is 8.15 mm, at 25% concentration is 7.95 mm, 50% concentration is 9.05 mm, 100% concentration is 9.9 mm, while in chlorhexidine (positive control) an average of 17.83 mm is obtained. From these results, it can be concluded that there is activity of celery leaf ethanol extract against the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis bacteria with a concentration that effectively inhibits the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis bacteria is 100% concentration.

Abstract

Background: Cigarette smoke contains oxidants or free radicals and around 4700 dangerous chemicals. The high level of free radicals in the body triggers the emergence of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) which results in oxidative stress, this can occur if there is an imbalance between the amount of oxidants and antioxidants. In this process, there is a leak of O2 which will turn into superoxide radicals (*O2) which can form pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6. Objective: to identify the effect of exposure to cigarette smoke on the histopathological appearance of rat lungs. Method: This research uses Post Test Only Control Group Design. Samples were taken from 20 male rats that met the inclusion criteria and were randomly divided into 4 groups, namely K1, K2, K3, and K4. K3 was given standard feed plus green apple juice at a dose of 13.5 grams/day. Meanwhile, the K4 group was given standard feed plus green apple juice at a dose of 27 grams/day. However, both were given exposure to cigarette smoke for 14 days. On the 15th day, blood was taken from male Wistar rats to carry out a histopathological examination of the rats' lungs using Hematoxillin-Eosin staining. Results: The results showed that there was damage in the negative group when compared with the normal group and the highest improvement in lung tissue was found at a dose of 27 grams/day when compared with the negative and normal groups. Conclusion: There is an effect of giving green apple juice on IL-6 and SOD levels in mice exposed to cigarette smoke.
