Abstract

Background: Certain fungi are normal flora on human mucosa and skin, and they require lipids for growth. One of them is Malassezia furfur, which can develop into an opportunistic infection and will take a long time to treat. The fungus may cause pityriasis versicolor, which cause scaly and discoloration of the skin. It is estimated that 40-50% from population in the tropical country is infected. Dayak onion (Eleutherine bulbosa Mill.) essential oil have the potential to treat fungal infections. This research aims to see the inhibitory potential of dayak onion essential oil (Eleutherine bulbosa Mill.) in inhibiting the growth of Malassezia furfur. Methods: This is an experimental study with a post-test control group design. The samples grouped into 7 groups. The first five treatment (P1 to P5) was given dayak onion (Eleutherine bulbosa Mill.) essential oil with a concentration of 3.125%,6.25%, 12.5%, 25%, and 50%, P6 (positive control) was given ketoconazole, and P7 (negative control) was given 10% DMSO. The inhibitory effect is measured from the diameter of the inhibitory zone, then analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. Result: The result showed that average diameter on 50% concentration is 9.25mm, 25% concentration is 7.5mm, 12.5% concentration have diameter of 4.5mm, 6.25% concentration have diameter of 3mm, 3.125% concentration with diameter of 1.75mm, positive control group with diameter of 20mm, and negative control group with diameter 0mm. Conclusions: Essential oil of dayak onion (Eleutherine bulbosa Mill.) shows inhibition of the growth of Malassezia furfur. The smallest inhibition zone diameter was 1.75 mm with concentration of 3.125%. The largest inhibition zone at a concentration of 50% with diameter of 9.25 mm. This finding showed potential effects towards antifungi treatment. Keywords: Eleutherine bulbosa Mill, Malassezia fufur, pityriasis versicolor.

Abstract

Background: Escherichia coli is one of the causatives of infection agents. Noni fruit that contains the antibacterial ingredients was predicted as an alternative medicine to reduce the resistance of antibiotics. Noni fruit extract can inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli. The absence of research on the active substances contained in this fruit which plays a role in inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli encourages the researcher to conduct this research. Methodology: The research was an experimental laboratory with post-test only control group design. The Escherichia coli grown on Mac conkey agar. Flavonoid and tannin in noni fruit (Morinda citrifolia Linn.) diluted with 3 concentrations, 50%, 70%, 100% and 2 control groups, positive control with ceftriaxone and negative control with Dimethylsulfoxide 10% (DMSO). The treatment group were incubated for 24 hours, then the inhibitory zone formed was measured in mm. Results: The Kruskall-Wallis test showed significant difference in all concentration. The results obtained from this research showed that the average of inhibition towards Escherichia coli on positive control (22.83 mm) had the largest inhibition zone among flavonoid 100% (18.83mm), flavonoid 70% (14.67 mm), flavonoid 50% (6 mm), tannin 100% (17.33 mm), tannin 70% (10.83 mm), tannin 50% (7.50 mm), and negative control (2 mm). Conclusion: Flavonoid and tannin in noni fruit (Morinda citrifolia Linn) were effective for inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli. The 100% concentration is the most effective concentration that can be promoted as an alternative medicine. Keywords: Noni fruit, Flavonoid, Tannin, Escherichia coli, Inhibition test

Abstract

Background: Hypertension or high blood pressure has been a common global health problem for several years. The content of nitrate within beetroot helps to increase production of nitric oxide (NO) which serves as a vasodilator and has potency to reduce blood pressure. This study aims to determine the potential effect of beetroot juice on reducing blood pressure. Methods: This study was a systematic review based on the PRISMA protocol as a writing guideline. Data were obtained from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases. Keywords used consisted of “beetroot”, “beetroot juice”, “blood pressure”, and “hypertension.” The eligibility criteria were research written in English, years of publication from 2014 and above, and Randomized controlled trials of beetroot juice interventions on reducing blood pressure. Results: The literature search resulted in 376 records, and only 9 studies were in the systematic review. Six out of 9 studies showed significant results of blood pressure reduction, but the other three studies confirmed otherwise. A significant reduction of blood pressure was mostly observed in healthy subjects. The efficacy of beetroot juice supplementation is influenced by several factors, including gender, age, nutritional status (BMI), initial blood pressure, duration of supplementation, dose, and concentration of nitrate. Conclusions: Beetroot juice supplementation is not so useful on reducing blood pressure because it only has an acute effect in lowering blood pressure and its effects were also influenced by several factors. Key Words: beetroot juice, blood pressure, hypertension, a systematic review
