AKTIVITAS ANTIBAKTERI KAPANG ENDOFIT DARI TANAMAN KINA (CINCHONA CALISAYA WEDD.)
ABSTRACT: Endophytic
microorganisms are microorganisms that live in the tissues of plant organ and
not harm its host. One of them is the endophytic fungi. Endophytic fungi could
produce the same compound as the host plant. The Plants produced alkaloids
quinine that could potentially inhibit the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and
Escherichia coli. This study aims to test the potential of endophytic fungi
produced quinine as an antibacterial. The method used to test the antibacterial
is a paper disc diffusion. Results of the analysis of data using one-way ANOVA
showed that there are significant differences zona between the diametre of
inhibitory of the endophytic fungi extract. Endophytic fungi M16 and M33
produced the greatest inhibition zone against Staphylococcus aureus and
Escherichia coli 14.9 mm and 9.2 mm respectively.
