Abstract

Binahong plants (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis) contain alkaloids,flavonoids,saponins, and terpenoids, the chemical compounds of binahong leaves have many antibacterial properties. This study aims to determine the antibacterial inhibition of n-hexane (Anredera cofdifolia Ten.) Steenis) against Bacillus Subtillis. This type of research is experimental descriptive, binahong leaf n-hexane fraction was previously obtained by extraction using maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent obtained by using a 10% DMSO dissolved and tested for antibacterial inhibition with the method of solid well diffusion against Bacillus Subtillis in the series of concentrations of 20%,40%,60% dan 80% positive controls used were chloramphenicol 10% and negative control DMSO 20%. The results of the study showed that n-hexane fraction of binahong leaves (Anreders cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis) was able to inhibit the growth of the bacterium Bacillus subtillis. The greater the concentration used, the greater the results obtained.
