PENGARUH PERBEDAAN KONSENTRASI EKSTRAK ETER REBUSAN DAUN SIRIH (Piper betle Linn) DALAM SEDIAAN SALEP TERHADAP SIFAT FISIK DAN DAYA ANTIBAKTERINYA

ABSTRACT: Betle leaves has been used as antibacteria or antiseptic and was formulated in gargle. Betel leaves extract formulated in ointment in order to practical and effective to the skin. The aim of this research is to know the influence of difference concentration of betle leaves extract in ointment to its physical properties and antibacteria effet against Staphylococcus aureus. Extract was obtained from leaves of the plant by decoction and continued by extraction with ether. Ointment were made in fine formulas with extract concentration 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1% w/w. The ointment was tested for its physical properties such as consisted of homogenity, viscosity, stickness and spreadibility. Antibacterial activity againts Staphylococcus aureus was tested by diffusion method. The result of this research shown that the ointment homogenous. The difference of extract concentration had not influence on their viscosity and dispersive power, however had influence on their fixed time. The ointment of betle leaves extract had antibacterial activity againts Staphylococcus aureus.
