<![CDATA[Nilam aceh (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) menghasilkan minyak atsiri yang dinamai minyak nilam. Kon¬stituen utama minyak nilam yang berperan sebagai antibakterial adalah alkohol nilam dan pogostone. Penelitian telah menunjukkan efektivitas nilam aceh dalam menghambat berbagai spesies bakteri Gram-positif dan Gram-negatif. Target kerjanya adalah menghambat penicillin-binding proteins (PBP), dihidrofolat sintetase (DHPS), dihidrofolat reduktase (DHFR), DNA girase, dan RNA polimerase yang diperlukan dalam biosintesis berbagai struktur bakteri.Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) produces an essential oil called patchouli oil. Main constituents of patchouli oil that acts as antibacterial are patchouli alcohol and pogostone. Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of patchouli against various species of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Its mechanism of action is targeting penicillin-binding proteins (PBP), dihydrofolate synthetase (DHPS), dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), DNA gyrase, and RNA polymerase that are required in biosynthesis of various bacterial structures.]]>
