Highlights:1. The COVID-19 pandemic makes personal hygiene more important than ever, and antibacterial substances such as disinfectants are crucial in maintaining said hygiene.2. The MBC of cavendish banana peel extract against the growth of bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was 25%, with no activity against Bacillus subtilis.3. Musa acuminata peel extract has the potential to be used as a disinfectant. AbstractIntroduction: The COVID-19 pandemic makes personal hygiene more important than ever, and antibacterial substances such as disinfectants are crucial in maintaining said hygiene. This study aimed to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of cavendish banana peel extract (Musa acuminata) against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis. Methods: The design of this study was a laboratory experiment that used the broth dilution method with test tubes using methanol as the extract’s solvent. Sterile aquadest was used as the solvent, and Mueller-Hinton broth was used as the growth medium in tubes. All samples of the bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis) were provided by the Laboratory of Microbiology Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga.Results: MBC was the only parameter found due to the color and particulates, which hindered the turbidity assessment of MIC. From the dilution test, the MBC of cavendish banana peel extract against the growth of bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was 25%, with no activity against Bacillus subtilis.Conclusion: There were antibacterial activities of Musa acuminata peel extract against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Therefore, it has the potential to be used as a disinfectant.

“…Segundo (LOYAGA-CASTILLO M, et al 2020), sua linha de pesquisa fez um levantamento sobre a possível ação antifúngica através do extrato hidroetanólico adquirido da casca de banana. Como resultado da sua pesquisa, a atividade antifúngica do extrato variou de acordo com a concentração utilizada, concluindo seu estudo onde o extrato de 50% de hidroetanólico tem um efeito antifúngico positivo sobre a cepa de C.albicans, sendo assim essa substancia pode ser usada de forma eficaz em produtos destinados a curar infecções por candidíase.…”

Pathological vaginal discharge (Candidiasis) is a reproductive health problem experienced by more than 50% of women throughout the world. Candida albicans is the main cause of pathological vaginal discharge. This disease is characterized by yellow to greenish discharge, odor, and itching to the point of bleeding which can cause death. Antifungal drugs used to treat pathological vaginal discharge can have several side effects. Therefore, the urgency of this research is to find natural alternatives for pathological vaginal discharge drugs, such as sweet orange peel and kepok banana peel which contain bioactive compounds that can inhibit the growth of Candida albicans. The aim of this study was to test the antifungal activity of a combination of ethanol extracts of sweet orange peel and kepok banana peel against Candida albicans in vitro. This research uses laboratory experimental methods. The results showed that all combinations of ethanol extracts of sweet orange peel and kepok banana peel could inhibit the growth of Candida albicans. The inhibitory power of each extract combination is categorized as moderate to very strong. According to the one-way ANOVA statistical test, all combinations were significantly different (p < 0.05). The ethanol extract of sweet orange peel contains flavonoids, alkaloids, phenolics and steroids, while the kepok banana peel extract contains phytochemical compounds such as flavonoids, phenolics, triterpenoids and alkaloids.
