Acne is associated with hyperkeratosis, elevated levels of skin sebum and growth of Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Furthermore, P. acnes promotes inflammation by inducing IL-6 production and oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial potential of a hop-CO2-extract with 50% humulone and lupulone. The susceptibility of P. acnes and S. aureus to the hop extract was tested by using the broth microdilution technique. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for P. acnes and S. aureus were 3.1 and 9.4 µg/mL, respectively. In addition, the hop extract showed an antioxidative effect with a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 29.43 µg/mL as well as additional anti-inflammatory effects by reducing the IL-6 expression (IC50: 0.8 µg/mL). In addition, a gel formulation with 0.3% hop extract (w/w) had antibacterial activity against P. acnes and S. aureus (inhibition zone value: 5.5 mm and 3 mm, respectively) which was significantly superior to the placebo gel. The positive control (a gel with the antibiotic clindamycin) showed an inhibition zone of 9 mm. Due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects hop extract might be a treatment option for acne-prone skin.

Soft corals ar known to have a variety of bioactivity capabilities, one of them is antibacterial. Antibacterial is a compound that can interfere with the growth of bacteria or even kill the bacteria. The soft coral samples, Lobophytum sp., obtained from  Pangalisang, Bunaken Island, wer extracted by evaporative process, then fractionated into three fractions by aqueous partitioning technique with aqueous solvents, ethyl acetate, methanol and n-hexane. Antibacterial testing, with bacterial samples of Pseudomonas aeruginaso and Staphylococcus aureus were analyzed by agar diffusion / Kirby Bauer method. The results of the experiment showed that every fraction had antibacterial activity, where the largest activity was produce at concentration of 50 disc paper sampes with  7 mm (water fraction), 8 mm ( metanol fraction), 7,2 mm (n-hexane fraction) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 7 mm (water fraction), 8,7 mm ( metanol fraction) in Staphylcoccus aureus. It can be concluded that the  inhibition zone from soft corals, Lobophytum sp., is classified as a weak activity, so it does not potential to be developed into an antibacterial drug.Keywords: Antibacterial, Lobophytum sp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylcoccus aureus.ABSTRAKKarang lunak diketahui mempunyai berbagai bioaktivitas salah satunya antibakteri. Antibakteri merupakan senyawa yang dapat mengganggu pertumbuhan atau bahkan dapat mematikan bakteri. Sampel karang lunak Lobophytum sp. yang diperoleh dari perairan Pangalisang Pulau Bunaken diambil ekstrak kentalnya melalui proses evaporasi, selanjutnya difraksinasi menjadi tiga fraksi dengan teknik partisi cair dengan pelarut aquades, etil asetat, metanol dan n-heksan. Pengujian antibakteri terhadap bakteri Pseudomonas aeruginosa  dan Staphylococcus aureus dianalisis dengan metode difusi agar (disc diffusion Kirby and Bauer). Hasil penelitian menunjukan ketiga fraksi memiliki aktivitas antibakteri, dimana aktivitas terbesar dihasilkan pada konsentrasi sampel dalam kertas cakram 50 μl dengan zona hambat 7mm (fraksi air), 8 mm (fraksi metanol), 7,2 mm (fraksi n-heksan) pada Pseudomonas aeruginosa dan 7 mm (fraksi air), 8,7 mm (fraksi metanol) pada Staphylococcuss aureus.

Introduction: Acne is a common skin disorder and is generally caused by Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus. Etlingera elatior flower extract is known to have antibacterial properties however, the properties against these bacteria have not been extensively reported. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the antibacterial properties of the flower extract against these bacteria. Materials and Methods: The flower extract was subjected to sequential extraction using three different solvent polarities; n-Hexane, dichloromethane (DCM) and ethanol. The antibacterial properties were evaluated using the disc diffusion and broth dilution assays techniques by determining the inhibition zone diameter, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). Total phenolic acids (TPC) and flavonoids contents (TFC) were estimated using Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminium-chloride colorimetric assay respectively. Morphological changes of the treated bacteria were studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results: DCM flower extract showed the highest antibacterial properties against P. acnes; at 25 mg/ml it had the widest inhibition zone (11.39 ± 0.45 mm) and the lowest MIC (6.25 mg/ mL) and MBC (12.5 mg/mL). The ethanolic flower extract had the highest antibacterial properties against S. aureus; at 50 mg/ml­ the inhibition zone was 6.21 ± 0.25 mm and the MIC and MBC were both 12.5 mg/ mL. Ethanolic extracts had the highest TPC (966.304 ± 114.08 mg GAE/g) and TFC (796.33 ± 65.78 mg QE/ g). There was significant morphological changes of the treated bacteria observed under SEM. Conclusion: E. elatior flower extracts exhibited antibacterial properties against acne-inducing bacteria.

Mekai leaves (Pycnarrhena cauliflora Diels.) (P. cauliflora). Are known to contain flavonoid compounds, tannins and phenolics that act as antibacterial agents and are used in the treatment of eye pain. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the examples of bacterial diseases of eye pain and also a major cause of many infections in communities and health facilities with cases of resistance to various antimicrobial agents. The purpose of this study was to prove the antibacterial activity of mekai leaves ethanol extract against S. aureus bacteria. This research is an experimental research. The stages of this research began by extracting mekai leaves using maceration method with 96% ethanol solvent. Antibacterial activity was tested by the disc method (Kirby-Bauer) using ethanol extract concentrations of mekai leaves (EPC) 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, and 80%, positive control using 25 μg amoxicillin and negative control using DMSO 10%. The measurement results of inhibition zones of mekai leaf ethanol extract 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% and 80% respectively were 8.32 mm, 8.32 mm, 8.32 mm, 8.67 mm, 9.00 mm, 8.67 mm, and 8.33 mm. While the positive control measurement of 25 μg amoxicillin against S. aureus is 28.67 mm and the measurement of 10% negative DMSO control does not produce inhibitory zones, so it can be concluded that the ethanol extract of mekai leaves has antibacterial activity, but the area of ​​inhibition zone produced is smaller than amoxicillin 25 µg. The results of statistical tests using Mann Whitney between negative controls with all EPC concentrations obtained significant differences with p values ​​<0.05, it can be concluded that there is antibacterial activity produced at all EPC concentrations.

A series of novel 1-(acetyl,carboxamide,carbothioamide)substituted-5-(substituted-phenyl)-3-methy-4,5-dihydropyrazole derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, IR, ESI-MS, and elemental analysis. Compounds 6h and 6q were further characterized by single crystal X-ray structural analysis. All of the compounds have been screened for their antibacterial potential in vitro against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Escherichia coli ATCC 35218, Pseudomonas fluorescens ATCC 13525, and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538. Among the tested compounds, some of them display significant activity against the tested strains, and compounds 5ac and 6h show potent activity with a minimum inhibitory concentration value of 1.562 μg mL–1 against B. subtilis ATCC 6633, which is comparable to the positive control penicillin. Structure–effect relationships are also discussed based on the experimental data.

Pterospermum is of plant genus in the Sterculiaceae family, which has never been studied for its secondary metabolite compound. The others species from this genus have long been used in generations of traditional medicine. For example, P. Javanicum has been used to treat dysentery, toothaches and ulcers. From the antibacterial testing carried out on some tissues of Pterospermum subpeltatum by GNA diffusion method,  this plant showed antibacterial potential, especially toward Shigella boydii and Staphylococcus aureus.
