Uji Daya Hambat Ekstrak Metanol Daun Ungu (Graptophillum pictum (L.) Griff) terhadap Pertumbuhan Bakteri Saluran Akar Gigi
ABSTRACT: Root canal bacteria
in necrotizing pulp are dominated by polymicrobial bacterial colonization.
Bacteria control were performed by using antribacterial irrigation. Purple leaf
methanol extract contains triterpenoids, alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides,
saponins, and tanins which are to own antibacterial capability. Objective: To
determine a wide range of consentrations, the minimal concentration of purple
leaf methanol extract which able to inhibit the growth of root canal bacteria,
and how much is the concentration of the purple leaf methanol extract which is
equivalent to 2.6% sodium hypochlorite. Methods: The method was used well
diffusion. Antibacterial test was indicated by the existance of the inhibition
zone around the well hole. Total samples used were 56 samples for each 7 group treatment, which are
concentration 100%, 50%, 25%, 12,5%, 6,25% of purple leaf methanol extract,
2.6% of sodium hypochlorite, and sterile water. The results of the study was
then tested by the statistical parametric one way ANOVA and LSD. Results and
Conclusion: The concentration of purple leaf methanol extract which ables to
inhibit the growth of root canal bacteria is 12,5%, 25%, 50%, and 100% also the
minimum concentration is 12,5%, and the concentration of purple leaf methanol
extract which is equivalent to 2.6% of sodium hypochlorite is concentration of
25%.
