Antituberculosis Activity of Extract and Fractions of Tinospora Crispa Against Mycobacterium Tuberculosis H37rv Using Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube and Agar Proportion Method

Abstract: Objective: The increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) has created a need to discover a new anti-TB drug candidates. The aim of this study was to screen extract and fractions of Tinospora crispa for activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.Methods: The dried and pulverized T. crispa stem was extracted by maceration method using ethanol (96%). The anti-TB activity was carried out using mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT) system and agar proportion method with Lowenstein–Jens… Show more

“…Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), an intracellular obligate and aerobic bacillus that multiplies within macrophage. [1][2] In 2015, there were 10,4 million cases of tuberculosis with a mortality rate of 1,8 million patients. 3 The World Health Organization with its programs can reduce the mortality of TB patients by up to 13% from 2015 to before Covid-19.…”
