Abstract

One of the most common diseases in Indonesia, namely pharyngitis, is caused by Streptococcus pyogenes. Inappropriate treatment of pharyngitis with antibiotics can result in bacteria that are resistant to antibacterials. Therefore, herbal plants that are effective as natural antibacterials are needed, such as beluntas leaves (Pluchea indica L.) to prevent this. Apart from that, the right method is needed so that the contents of the beluntas leaves can be attracted properly. The aim of this research was to determine the effective concentration and maceration time of beluntas leaf extract in inhibiting the growth of S.pyogenes. This research used varying maceration times of 24 and 72 hours. Then, from each variation of maceration time, beluntas leaf extract was made in concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%.  Beluntas leaf extract was tested for its inhibitory power against S.pyogenes using the Kirby Bauer method. The data obtained was the diameter of the inhibitory power of beluntas leaf extract on the growth of S.pyogenes, then the data was processed statistically using the Kruskal-Wallis test and a further test, namely the Post Hoc Test. The results of this research were that beluntas leaf extract which was macerated for 72 hours with a concentration of 20% and 25% had an average diameter of inhibition against S.pyogenes of 9.04 mm and 12.71 mm. Therefore, a maceration time of 72 hours with a concentration of 25% is effective in inhibiting the growth of S.pyogenes.

Abstract

Background: Escherichia coli is one of the causes of foodborne illness. Conventional PCR is a PCR method that is carried out qualitatively followed by visualization on agar electrophoresis. Agarose gel electrophoresis is a technique that is often used in various fields of science to separate a mixture of DNA on agarose substrate. This method is used to perform qualitative analysis of DNA samples. In electrophoresis, there are factors that affect the movement of DNA molecules, one of which is voltage. In addition, the length of time of the electrophoresis process can also affect the effectiveness of the results and the rate of migration. When the electrophoresis process time is short, large DNA fragments still tend to stick. Purpose: Therefore, it is necessary to balance the voltage and time given to get good DNA banding results. Methods: The research unit that will be used is the result of amplification of Escherichia coli 16SrRNA gene DNA measuring 584 bp. The electrophoresis process was carried out with voltage variations of 50, 100, 150 volts and time variations of 30, 45, 60 minutes. Observation of electrophoresis results that have formed DNA bands will be measured the area of DNA bands using ImageJ application. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study concluded that: The optimum voltage in the electrophoresis process in obtaining good E.coli DNA bands is at a voltage of 150 volts. The optimum time in the electrophoresis process in obtaining good E.coli DNA bands is for 30 minutes.
