“Uji Aktivitas Antibakteri Ekstrak cacing Dan Kapsul Cacing Tanah (Lumbricus rubellus) Terhadap Pertumbuhan Bakteri Salmonella Thyposa, Escherichia coli, dan Staphylococcus aureus Dengan Metode Difusi Agar”.

Method Agar ".
One type of earthworm that is often used in medicine is Lumbricus
rubellus. Contains high enough protein and produce a bacterial controller
called Lumbricin I. Lumbricin I has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity,
which can inhibit the growth of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Therefore, research to find out: (1) Inhibitory zone of Salmonella thyposa
bacteria, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus resulting from worm
extract and earthworm capsule (Lumbricus rubellus) (2) Inhibition zone
resulting from worm extract and earthworm capsule (Lumbricus rubellus) of
various concentrations (3) antibacterial activity of worm extract, and
earthworm capsule (Lumbricus rubellus) against the resulting inhibit zone.
This study was conducted to test whether or not the ability of
antibacterial substances from extracts of worms and earthworm capsules
(Lumbricus rubellus) against Salmonella Thyposa, Escherichia coli, and
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria using diffusion method to use cylinders Of
various concentrations. The results of the inhibit zone diameter residence
around the cylinder will be processed using one way ANOVA statistic (One
Way ANOVA) with SPSS completion.
Based on the results of data analysis obtained the conclusion: With
sample treatment different from without boiling and without suspension with
NaCl 0.97% worm extract and earthworm capsule (Lumbricus rubellus) can
not inhibit the growth of Salmonella thyposa, Eschericia coli and
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria by agar diffusion method.
