In vitro Antimicrobial Activity Evaluation of Mangrove Fruit (Sonneratia caseolaris L.) Extract

Abstract: Introduction: Mangrove fruit (Sonneratia caseolaris L) from Sonneratiaceae family known with local name "Pidada Merah" has bioactive components. The present study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of this plant. Method: The sample was macerated using methanol, the antimicrobial activity assay was performed using agar disc diffusion method against Escherichia coli ATTC9637, Staphylococcus aureus ATTC6538, and Candida albicans ATTC10231. Results: Antimicrobial activity of Mangrove fruit methanol extra… Show more

“…The composition determines the bioactivity; therefore, selecting extraction procedures is crucial in achieving noticeable positive results. The common antibacterial mechanism is attributed to membrane cell disruption [ 49 ]. Despite the antibacterial activity, the extract also exhibits antiviral properties.…”

“…Differences in the cell wall structure of the tested microorganisms are supposed to relate to the difference in susceptibility (Moron et al, 2018). Besides, it is possible that the fungal extracts contained compounds more toxic to Gram-positive bacteria than to the Gram-negative cells and the yeast (Ahmad et al, 2018). Furthermore, the nature of the compounds produced by the fungi and the mechanism of action is not known yet, so further research is needed.…”
