Root ceplukan (Physalis angulata L.) is one of the medicinal plants that contain several active compounds that are antibacterial. This study aims to prove the antibacterial activity of root ceplukan extract againsts Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. Root ceplukan was extracted by maceration with ethanol 70%. Root root extracts of phytochemical screening include flavonoids, alkaloids and saponins. The ceplukan root extract was then tested against S. epidermidis and P. aeruginosa bacteria using wells method with concentrations of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%, aquades as a negative control and amikacin as a positive control. Inhibitory zone diameter with each concentration for P. aeruginosa bacteria, among others, negative control = 0 mm, positive control = 21,623 mm, 100% = 16.9 mm, 80% = 15.05 mm, 60% = 13.703 mm, 40% = 12.02 mm, 20% = 12.02 mm and S. epidermidis bacteria have inhibitory zone at positive control of 21,623 mm. The results of this study showed that root extract ceplukan proved to have inhibition zone against bacteria P. aeruginosa at all concentrations but has no inhibition zone against S. epidermidis bacteria. Root ceplukan extract has a minimum inhibitory concentration of 14% and a minimum bacterisid concentration of 20%, against P. aeruginosa bacteria. The results of phytochemical analysis showed that root ceplukan positively contain flavonoids, alkaloids and saponins are suspected as antibacterial compounds.

Sexual disorders have a great impact on men's life, so that is why efforts in searching materials and techniques for the effective treatment of safe and cheap still continued. However, many of the natural material that is claimed efficacious drugs for the high content of bioactive, particularly for sexual disorders, has not been scientifically tested. This study was designed and conducted to ascertain whether the dragon fruit (Hylocereus sp) which is claimed to be efficacious as an antioxidant as well as anti-aging, can be used as a remedy for sexual function disorders and fertility in male rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (Rattus novergicus) aged 10 -12 weeks, grouped in to four consisted of six rats each, treated once daily for 25 days. Group 1 (control) was given 1 ml CMC 1%; group 2 received extract of pitaya fruit at a dose of 500mg/kg; group 3 treated with cyproterone acetate (CPA) at a dose of 25mg/kg; whereas group 4 adminstered with 25mg/kg CPA and 500mg/kg of pitaya fruit extract. CPA treatment effectively reduces serum testosterone while pitaya fruit extract effectively enhances the androgen concentration; increases spermatozoa counts, sperm viability, sperm motility, and spermatid counts. However, pitaya fruit fail to restore the decrease of primary spermatocyte due to CPA induction. So, the conclusion white pitaya fruit extract effectively increase the synthesis of testosterone and play a role spermiogenesis, thus the pitaya fruit herbs can be used as an enhancer of sexual activity and fertility in male.

In developing countries, many antibiotics are used without a doctor's prescription, causing someone to use antibiotics incorrectly. Lack of knowledge about antibiotics is a major factor that triggers an increase in the rate of bacterial resistance to antibiotics. Knowledge and attitude become one of the social cognitive factors that influence antibiotic use behavior.This study aims to determine the relationship of knowladge and attitudes toward of antibiotic usage behavior in community of Talang jawa public health centre. The research is an observasional analytic research using cross sectional study design. sampling using non-probability sampling methode with type purposive sampling and instruments in the form of questionnaires. The data analysis was based univariate and bivariate analysis eqipped with chi square. The study was conducted on 100 community respondents in the Talang Jawa Health Center. The results showed respondents with good knowledge (25%), enough (27%) and less (48%). Respondents with positive attitudes (64%) and negative attitudes (35%). Respondents with positive behavior (43%) and negative behavior (57%). Chi square test result showed that there was a significant relationship between knowladge and antibiotic use behavior (p= 0,000) and there was a significant relationship between attitude and antibiotic use behavior (p= 0,000). This study has a meaningful relationship between and attitudes with antibiotic use behavior in Talang Jawa Health Center. Keywords: Antibiotics,Knowledge, Attitudes, Behavior

Sweet potato leaves (Ipomea batatas (L) Lam ) are empirically used by people in some regions as traditional medicines to treat dengue fever and as anti-cancer because of their high antioxidant content. This study aims to see the effect of sweet potato leaf water fraction as a hepatoprotector on male white rats induced by paracetamol. Sweet potato leaves were extracted by maceration using 70% ethanol for 8 days then fractionation was carried out. The hepatoprotector test was carried out on 25 rats grouped in 5 groups treated orally for 7 days, namely negative controls given aquades, positive controls were given hepamax dose 59.06 mg / kgBB, groups I, II and III were given a fraction of sweet potato leaf water with a dose of 4.77 mg / kgBB, 9.54 mg / kgBB, and 19.08 mg / kgBB then male white rats induced by paracetamol orally at a dose of 1350mg / kgBB for 1 day. The increase in SGPT and SGOT levels was measured on day 9 using spectrophotometry then analyzed by ANOVA method. The results of SGPT analysis showed that groups I, II and III were significantly different from the negative controls (sig 0,000), and had the same effect on positive controls (sig 0.144) in suppressing SGPT level increases while in the analysis results the SGOT group III levels were significantly different from controls negative (sig 0,000) and significantly different from group I, II (sig 0.30 and 0.24), and have the same effect as positive controls (sig 0.392). The third dose (19.08 mg / kgBB) showed the best suppression increased and was not significantly different from statistically positive controls. Based on the research it was concluded that the fraction of sweet potato leaf water could be used as a hepatoprotector for male white rats induced by paracetamol.
