Comparison of Inhibition Zones Between Butterfly Pea Flower (Clitoria ternatea) and Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citrarus) Against Streptococcus mutans and Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract

This study aims to determine the comparison of the inhibition zone between theextract of butterfly pea flower and lemongrass, against the bacteria streptococcusmutans and staphylococcus aureus. The samples that will be used in this researchare streptococcus mutans and staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Data analysis usednormality test and statistical test was performed using ANOVA analysis test and posthoc test. The results showed that there was no difference in the inhibition zone ofbutterfly pea flower extract against streptococcus mutans bacteria and lemongrassextract against streptococcus mutans. There was difference in the inhibition zonebetween butterfly pea flower extract against staphylococcus aureus bacteria andlemongrass extract against staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Butterfly pea flowerextract has a good inhibition zone in staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Lemongrassextract has the same inhibition zone against both types of bacteria

Antibacterial activity of Medan Butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) corolla extract against Streptococcus mutans ATCC®25175™ and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC®6538™

“…There are some major bioactive compounds that have potential antimicrobial activities and can be isolated from flowers extracts, as follows: phenolics, phenolic acids and quinones, tannins, terpenoids and essential oils, glycosides, and alkaloids (Voon et al 2012;Siahaan and Aryastami 2018). The importance of the chemical constituents and pharmacological effects of Indonesia Butterfly Pea, have been reported in some local health studies in Indonesia (Angriani 2019;Marpaung 2020;Purba 2020;Haditio et al 2021). There are several chemical compounds were reported in butterfly pea herb, such as kaempferol, quercetin, myricetin, taxaxerol, tannic acid, 3-monoglucoside, β-sitosterol, delphiniein-3,5-O-bisglucoside, malvidin-3-O-β-glucoside, p-hydroxycinnamic acid, ethyl-α-D-galactopyranoside, anthoxanthin glucoside, kaempferol-3 neohesperidoside, quercetin 3-neohesperidoside, hexacosanol, myricetin-3-O-neohesperidoside, myricetin-3-O-rutinoside, kaempferol-3-glucoside (Pendbhaje et al 2011).…”

“…This herbal provides antioxidant, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antiasthmatic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antimicrobial based on the phytochemical components, such as flavonoids, anthocyanins, flavonol glycosides, kaempferol glycosides, quercetin glycosides, and myricetin glycosides. (Kamilla et al 2009;Pratap Gowd et al 2012;Lijon et al 2017;Chusak et al 2018;Widyarman et al 2018;Kumar and More 2019;Lakshan et al 2019;Haditio et al 2021). This is an important perennial herbaceous plant that has morphological variations with the genetic richness of some tropical countries in the world, including Indonesia (Oguis et al 2019;Suarna and Wijaya 2021).…”

Qualitative phytochemical analysis and inhibitory property of Blue Butterfly Pea flower extract against Escherichia coli

“…According to Uma (2009), biological compounds can be found also from blue coli. Moreover, based on its phytochemical components, this plant has anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-diabetic, hepatoprotective, antiasthmatic, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties (Kamilla et al 2009;Pratap Gowd et al 2012;Lijon et al 2017;Chusak et al 2018;Widyarman et al 2018;Kumar and More 2019;Lakshan et al 2019;Haditio et al 2021).…”

Computational Study of Telang Flower Extract (Clitoria Ternatea) as an Anti-Inflammantory Drug

“…[4] This is because it has many who do research that say that there are many benefits obtained from this plant. [5] [28] This plant grows spread in various parts of the world in tropical and subtropical climates the continents of Asia and the Pacific, America and the Caribbean, Africa, and Australia. [6] This telang plant is a herbal plant that can be said to be very special in traditional medicine.…”

“…[10] Various pharmacological activities of C. ternatea were reported in Vol 01 2022, pp 8-17 e-ISSN: XXXX-XXXX DOI: https://doi.org/10.54482/ELECTROLYTE/ DOI: https://doi.org/10.54482/ ELECTROLYTE/ literature such as antimicrobial, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, diuretic, local anaesthetic, antidiabetic, insecticidal, blood platelet aggregation inhibiting and vascular smooth muscle relaxant properties. [11] In 1954 there was who reported that there was fatty acid content in telang seeds and root has a diuretic effect. [12][26] Various secondary metabolites such as polyphenolic flavonoids, anthocyanin glycosides, pentacyclic triterpernoids and phytosterols have been reported from this plant.…”
