Analysis of The Phytochemical Characteristics of Crude Extract of Jasmine Flower Against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract

Indonesia is a famous country had the diversity of plants, especially agricultural product and herbs, they had a potential of antimicrobial as a like Jasmine Flower (Jasminum sambac Ait). This study Indonesia is a famous country had the diversity of plants, especially agricultural product and herbs, they had a potential of antimicrobial as a like Jasmine Flower (Jasminum sambac Ait). This study aimed to determine the phytochemical and antimicrobial activity of jasmine flower. Extraction was done by maceration, such as using water solvent, methanol, ethyl acetate, and hexane as the solvent. The sample bacteria used were Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. This study used disc diffusion method, with a complete 2-factor random design and 4 replications. Processing of the data is using ANOVA. The results showed that the jasmine extracts with a concentration of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% had an effect to inhibit of the growth of the bacteria. Jasmine extract with ethyl acetate solvent was the most effective to inhibit the growth of bacteria. It was known that jasmine flower extract is one of the good natural antimicrobials gave an inhibitory effect to the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.

Effect of Overfilled Solvent and Storage Time of Subcritical Extraction of Jasminum sambac on Yield, Antioxidant Activity, Antimicrobial Activity and Tentative Volatile Compounds

“…Common microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive) and Escherichia coli (Gram-negative) were investigated using the MIC method. MIC values from different studies and different extraction methods were reported differently [ 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ]. However, it can be concluded that jasmine essential oil from HFC-134a extraction also has antimicrobial potential, as indicated by other previous studies.…”

A Comparative Analysis of Phenolic Content, Antioxidant Activity, Antimicrobial Activity, and Chemical Profile of Coffea robusta Extracts Using Subcritical Fluid Extraction and Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction

“…In a previous study, it was found that essential oils can cause a leakage of ions and cell contents from bacteria [ 8 ] and are highly effective against Gram-positive bacteria over Gram-negative bacteria, similar to another experimental study on inhibition zones [ 43 ]. It was also reported that Gram-negative bacteria are covered by a lipopolysaccharide layer that helps protect these bacteria from antibacterial substances [ 44 ]. In this study, the Robusta roasted coffee extracts could perform as antibacterial substances against Gram-positive bacteria better than Gram-negative bacteria.…”
