Objective: This research aims to determine the secondary metabolites contained in the n-hexane extract of P. ambionicus leaves and to determine the effective concentration as an antibacterial causing diarrhea. Methods: The research method was carried out experimentally with the stages of making simplicia, maceration, extract making, phytochemical screening, and antibacterial activity testing. Results: The results of phytochemical screening showed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, tannins, steroids/triterpenoids. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that the n-hexane extract of P.amboinicus leaves at all concentrations (50%, 25%, 12.5%) had antibacterial activity in the strong category (10-20 mm). Conclusion: The n-hexane extract of P.amboinicus leaves has the potential as an antibacterial with a strong category.

Imunisasi adalah suatu upaya untuk menimbulkan/meningkatkan kekebalan tubuh seseorang secara aktif terhadap suatu penyakit sehingga bila suatu saat terpajan dengan penyakit tersebut tidak akan sakit atau hanya mengalami sakit ringan. Tujuan imunisasi untuk memberikan perlindungan dari penyakit yang dapat dicegah dengan imunisasi. Data pada tahun 2019 cakupan imunisasi rutin di Indonesia masih dalam kategori kurang memuaskan, dan terjadi pernurunan terutama pada masa pandemic. Sehingga perlu dilakukan pengabdian kepada masyarakat berupa penyuluhan tentang pentingnya imunisasi di wilayah Desa Sudirejo, Kecamatan Namorambe, Kabupaten Deli Serdang, Sumatera Utara. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan edukasi kepada masyarakat terutama orang tua/ibu tentang pentingnya imunisasi. Metode yang digunakan berupa penyuluhan yang dilaksanakan secara luring di balai desa. Peserta yang hadir terdiri dari 30 orang. Kegiatan ini memberikan dampak positif kepada masyarakat terutama dalam mencegah penyakit di masa akan datang melalui program imunisasi.
Infectious diseases are one of the health problems because they cause new infectious diseases caused by antibiotic resistance. So it is necessary to search for new antibiotic agents that are sourced from natural ingredients such as jackfruit plants. Jackfruit plant (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) has many benefits ranging from roots, stems, leaves, fruits and seeds. Jackfruit plant has pharmacological properties as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimalarial, antifungal activity, cytotoxic, tyrosinase inhibitory activity and antimicrobial. The purpose of this study was to determine the study of jackfruit plants that have potential as antimicrobials. The research method was carried out using a literature review with online media based on the Web, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, ResearchGate, Google Scholar used for publication. The results showed that jackfruit has antimicrobial activity due to the content of bioactive compounds such as: tannins, flavonoids, catechins, artocarpin and artocarpanone. Jackfruit plant parts that have the potential as antimicrobials are the leaves, jackfruit skin, seeds and roots. Jackfruit plants have potential as antimicrobials against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Propionibacterium acnes, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus mutans, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Plasmodium falciparum, and Vibrio cholera.
