Staphylococcus aureus dan Escherichia coli merupakan bakteri Gram positif dan Gram negatif yang dapat menimbulkan infeksi atau penyakit dalam tubuh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji aktivitas bakteri patogen dengan memakai nanopartikel kitosan sebagai antibakteri yang dibuat dalam empat konsentrasi (0,5%, 1%, 1,5% dan 2%) serta penggunaan kontrol asam asetat 1%, ciprofloxacin dan air steril sebagai pembanding. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu metode gelasi ionik untuk pembuatan nanopartikel kitosan dan difusi agar untuk pengujian antibakteri. Data dianalisis dengan One Way Anova yang dilanjutkan dengan metode BNT (Beda Nyata Terkecil). Hasil penelitian diperoleh penghambatan pertumbuhan bakteri S. aureus dan E. coli tertinggi pada konsentrasi 0,5%, dengan diameter zona hambat hari pertama sampai hari ketiga 12,31 mm, 9,98 mm, dan 20,46 mm pada S. aureus dan 15,88 mm, 18,71 mm, dan 20,43 mm pada E. coli, kategori kuat, dan bersifat bakteriostatik dan penghambatan terendah pada konsentrasi 2% dengan diameter zona hambat pada S. aureus yaitu 5,56 mm, 5,50 mm, dan 5,40 mm, dan pada E. coli yaitu 5,93 mm, 9,64 mm, dan 12,58 mm, kategori sedang, dan bersifat bakteriostatik. Kata kunci: Kitosan, nanopartikel kitosan, aktivitas antibakteri. Abstract Antibacteria is a substance that can inhibit the growth of bacteria and able to kill bacteria that cause infections. Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli are Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria that able to cause infections or diseases. This study aimed to examine the activity of pathogenic bacteria by using chitosan nanoparticles as antibacterial. The treatments were made in four concentrations (0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2%) and, for comparison, there were also acetic acid control, ciprofloxacin and sterile water. The research method used is the ionic gelation method for the manufacture of chitosan nanoparticles and agar diffusion for antibacterial testing. Data were analyzed with One Way Anova followed by LSD (Least Significant Difference) method. The results showed the highest inhibition of growth of S. aureus and E. coli bacteria at a concentration of 0.5%, with a diameter of inhibition zones of the first day to the third day of 12.31 mm, 9.98 mm, and 20.46 mm in S. aureus and 15,88 mm, 18,71 mm, and 20,43 mm in E. coli, the strong category, and are bacteriostatic and the lowest inhibition was at 2% concentration with inhibition zone diameters in S. aureus namely 5.568 mm, 5.50 mm, and 5, 40 mm, and in E. coli, 5.93 mm, 9.63 mm and 12.58 mm, the medium category and bacteriostatic.Key words: Chitosan, nanoparticles chitosan, antibacterial activity.

“…At 65°C, 5% BLE 5 and CEO were subsequently added and stirred until homogeneous. Once homogeneous, the magnetic stirrer and heater were turned off, and then AgNp (7 ppm) 22 and Chit (0.5%) 23,24 solution were added to the beaker and stirred for 30 minutes until homogeneous. Finally, aquadest was added to a total weight of 20 g and stirred until homogeneous.…”
