Abstract

Background: Diarrhea is a global health problem that causes millions of deaths every year. Treating diarrhea often involves the use of antibiotics, but antibiotic resistance is a serious problem. Cherry plants (Muntingia calabura L.) has been used traditionally to treatt infections . This research can provide new insights regarding the potential of using cherry plants as an alternative for treating bacterial infections without relying only on antibiotics. Objective: To determine the antibacterial activity of ethanol extracts from the cherry leaves (Muntingia calabura L.) against the Escherichia coli growth. Methods: This research is using a true experimental method with a post-test only control group design. The bacteria used is Escherichia coli with 8 treatment groups, the positive control group using ciprofloxacin, the negative control group using sterile aquadest, and six concentrations of cherry leaf extract treatment groups. The data was analyse with One Way Anova test. Results and Discussion: Inhibition zones produced at the concentrations of 100%, 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%, 3.125% measuring 15.39 mm ; 14.02 mm; 11.82 mm; 10.82 mm; 9.64 mm; 8.32 mm , indicating strong to moderate antibacterial effects. Conclusion: Ethanol extracts of cherry leaves (Muntingia calabura L.) exhibit antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli in vitro. Keywords: Ethanol Extracts from Cherry Leaves, Antibacterial Activity, Escherichia coli, in vitro.

Abstract

Treatment of Propionibacterium acnes infection can use antibiotics, but the use of antibiotics in the wrong dosage can trigger antibiotic resistance. The development of natural antibacterial research with herbal plant ingredients is one alternative to reduce the incidence of resistance. One of the plants used is star fruit leaf (Averrhoa bilimbi linn). This research aims to determine the antibacterial activity of ethanol extract of star fruit leaf (Averrhoa bilimbi linn) against the growth of Propionibacterium acnes. This research used a true experimental design research type with a post-test only control group design. This research used star fruit  leaf extract which is macerated using 70% ethanol solvent and evaporated until a thick extract is obtained. Testing of antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion method (Kirby-Bauer) against the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes. The analysis used is  the One Way Anova statistical test. Star fruit leaf extract contains alkaloid compounds, tannins, saponins, flavonoids, and steroids. The test results show that the average diameter of the inhibition zone formed by each sample was at a concentration of 100% of 17,07 mm, a concentration of 50% of 15,21 mm, a concentration of 25% of 14,16 mm, a concentration of 12,5% of 12,86 mm, a concentration of 6,25% of 12,08 mm, a concentration of 3,125% of 10,58 mm and a concentration of 1,56% of 9,16 mm. Star fruit leaf extract (Averrhoa bilimbi linn) has antibacterial activity against the growth  of Propionibacterium acnes.

Abstract

This study aims to improve family nutritional literacy while presenting nutritious food innovations based on Moringa (Moringa oleifera) through educational activities on the dangers of malnutrition and training in the production of Moringa pudding for mothers of the Family Empowerment and Welfare Movement Team (PKK) in Naikolan Village, Maulafa District, Kupang City. Using a quasi-experimental design with one group pre- and post-activity, nutritional knowledge was measured through pre- and post-tests, while product acceptance was evaluated through a Likert-scale organoleptic test. The results showed an increase in the average knowledge score from 7.24 to 8.40, without a decrease in scores across all participants; the “Good” category increased from 36% to 80%. The organoleptic test on 24 panelists resulted in very high scores for all attributes (color 5.00; aroma 4.70; taste 4.78; texture 4.74; overall 4.87), with 100% of panelists stating “like–really like”. These findings confirm that the combination of nutrition education and moringa pudding innovation effectively increases understanding while producing a product that is well-liked, thus potentially becoming a child-friendly supplementary food solution and a community-based micro-entrepreneurship opportunity.

Abstract

Constipation is a problem in the pattern of elimination due to the presence of dry or hard feces passing through the large intestine, while a laxative is a substance that can provide stimulation of intestinal peristalsis as a reflex of direct stimulation of the intestinal wall that can facilitate defecation. Many medicinal plants can treat constipation, one of which is Utasupe. Utasupe is a vegetable plant originating from the Ende region. In Ende, Utasupe is believed to facilitate bowel movements, so people often consume Utasupe. This study aims to determine the laxative effect of Utasupe leaf juice from Ende region on loperamide-induced male white rats (Rattus novergicus). The study was conducted experimentally on 30 Sprague daley strain white rats aged 8-12 weeks. The parameter for testing the laxative effect was the defecation pattern, while the observed parameter was the frequency of defecation every hour for 8 hours. Utasupe leaf juice was administered orally at a dose of 125 mg/mL, 250 mg/mL and 500 mg/mL, as a comparison negative control (Na-CMC) and positive control (Bisacodyl) were used. The results showed that the administration of Utasupe leaf juice at a dose of 250 mg/mL had a laxative effect on male white rats. Utasupe leaf juice has laxative activity in white rats (Rattus novergicus). The time required for defecation to occur after being given Utasupe leaf juice from the Ende area in white rats (Rattus novergicus) is one hour with the most effective dose is 250 mg/mL.

Abstract

Hepatitis B menjadi permasalahan kesehatan yang signifikan karena infeksinya dapat berkembang menjadi penyakit hati kronis yang berisiko menimbulkan sirosis hingga kanker hati. Keterbatasan efektivitas terapi antivirus yang saat ini tersedia mendorong perlunya pencarian kandidat alternatif yang bersumber dari bahan alam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menentukan kandungan Procyanidin B2 dalam ekstrak etanol 70% kulit batang faloak (Sterculia quadrifida R.Br), serta memprediksi potensi aktivitas antivirusnya terhadap virus hepatitis B melalui metode molecular docking berbasis web server CB-Dock2 pada reseptor NTCP (Natrium Taurocholate Cotransporting Polypeptide). Tahapan penelitian meliputi analisis LC–MS/MS untuk identifikasi dan kuantifikasi procyanidin B2 dengan pembandingan terhadap standar, serta pemodelan moleculer menggunakan web server CB-Dock2. Hasil LC–MS/MS memastikan keberadaan Procyanidin B2 pada ekstrak etanol 70% dengan waktu retensi 3,76 menit dan nilai massa ion (m/z) 579,15, disertai intensitas puncak tertinggi sebesar 3.00E+04, yang menunjukkan efektivitas pelarut dalam mengekstraksi senyawa target dari kulit batang faloak. Analisis CB-Dock2 mengindikasikan adanya potensi interaksi antara Procyanidin B2 dan reseptor NTCP yang berperan penting dalam proses masuknya virus ke dalam sel hepatosit. Dari hasil ini, kulit batang faloak berpotensi dikembangkan sebagai sumber Procyanidin B2 sekaligus kandidat agen antivirus alami terhadap hepatitis B.

Abstract

Kesehatan adalah aspek penting dalam kehidupan, terutama di daerah pedesaan yang memiliki akses terbatas terhadap layanan kesehatan. Batuk dan pilek merupakan penyakit umum yang sering menyerang anak-anak, khususnya balita. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakat Desa Nunsaen mengenai penggunaan tanaman obat sebagai pencegahan batuk dan pilek melalui edukasi praktis. Metode yang digunakan meliputi ceramah, demonstrasi pembuatan minuman herbal, uji organoleptik produk, dan diskusi interaktif dengan 30 peserta dari berbagai latar belakang. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan yang signifikan; sebelum pelatihan, hanya 25% peserta yang mengetahui manfaat tanaman herbal, sedangkan setelah pelatihan, angka tersebut meningkat menjadi 100%. Selain itu, semua peserta menyatakan akan merekomendasikan penggunaan minuman herbal untuk pencegahan batuk dan pilek pada anak. Kesimpulan dari kegiatan ini adalah bahwa edukasi mengenai tanaman obat efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat tentang alternatif pengobatan alami dan mendorong pemanfaatan sumber daya lokal untuk kesehatan yang lebih baik.
