ABSTRACT Sponges are multi-cell marine invertebrates whose tissue and organ functions are very simple which live in coral reef ecosystems. Sponges are known to produce bioactive compounds because of their symbiotic relationships with microorganisms so that they have the potential to be developed in the field of medicine including as an antimicrobial. This study aims to determine whether the fungus associated with Phyllospongia lamellose sponge taken from the waters of, Southeast Minahasa Regency has antimicrobial activity. This research includes sampling, isolation and fungal inoculation, fermentation, extraction with acetone and then fractionated with ethyl acetate solvent,dried until it gets crude extracts and is carried out as well as antimicrobial testing against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Antimicrobial activity was obtained from inhibitory zones formed around the paper disk against the test microbes. From the results of the study concluded that the fungus associated with the Phyllospongia lamellose sponge has antimicrobial activity against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Keywords: Phyllospongia lamellose sponge, Antimicrobial, Stapylococcus aureu, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans. ABSTRAK Spons merupakan invertebrata laut multi sel yang fungsi jaringan dan organnya sangat sederhana yang hidup pada ekosistem terumbu karang.

ABSTRACT Soft coral is one type of Coelenterata that lives at sea, namely coral reef waters. Soft Coral acts as one of the constituent animals of coral reef ecosystems and is the largest supplier of growth compounds, such as carbonate compounds in which 50% of the bioactive compounds found in these invertebrates are toxic. This study aims to determine the antimicrobial activity of marine fungi associated with soft coral Sarcophyton sp., which was obtained from Tumbak Village, Posumaen Sub-district, Southeast Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi. The antimicrobial testing uses diffusion methods to determine the inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive bacteria), Escherichia coli (Gram negative bacteria) and Candida albicans (fungi). The results showed that the antimicrobial activity of fungal extracts isolated from soft coral Sarcophyton sp., against bacteria, Escherechia coli, and Candida albicans by measuring the inhibitory activity is the formation of clear zones which categorize as medium, whereas for Staphylococcus aureus bacteria do not have antimicrobial activity. Keywords: Antimicrobial, Soft Coral (Sarcophyton sp.), Staphylococcus aureus, Eschrichia coli,                      Candida albicans ABSTRAK Karang Lunak merupakan salah satu jenis Coelenterata yang hidupnya dilaut yaitu perairan terumbu karang.

The air dried rhizosphere soil samples pretreated with calcium carbonate was employed for the isolation of actinomycete strains. Serial dilution plate technique was used for the isolation of actinomycetes. A total of 20 actinomycete strains designated as BS1-BS20 were isolated from the rhizosphere of medicinal plant Clitoria ternatea. All the 20 strains were subjected to primary screening for antimicrobial activity. Among the 20 strains screened, 10 strains exhibited high antimicrobial spectrum against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans.

The medicinal value of the plants is due to their chemical components that bring a definite physiological action on the human body to prevent the diseases. In this work, we investigated the antimicrobial activity of leaves’ extracts of Quercus robur L., collected from the Algerian upper highlands, on ten bacterial strains and one fungal strain known to be pathogenic. First, we performed a qualitative phytochemical analysis, and second, antimicrobial activity tests performed by agar diffusion method (disc and well) with the determination of MIC by broth macro-dilution method. Given the results, it appears that obtained macerates of Quercus robur L. were rich in bioactive phytoconstituents such as alkaloids, anthraquinones, saponins, tannins, and other components. The yield of aqueous and methanolic macerates of leaves was 8.5 ± 1.41 and 22.4 ± 4.36%, respectively. The bacterial resistance was relatively important to several antibiotics, namely, ampicillin, amoxicillin + clavulanic acid for strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. However, Staphylococcus aureus strains were resistant to fusidic acid, penicillin, and oxacillin; while Enterococcus faecalis was resistant to fusidic acid, penicillin, oxacillin, and ticarcillin. The antibacterial activity of the macerates toward tested microbial strains showed that the aqueous and methanolic macerates of the leaves were proportional to the tested concentration and active not only against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria but also on the fungal species Candida albicans. The estimated MIC for Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, and Staphylococcus aureus was in the order of 10 mg/mL, which seems more effective than toward Salmonella sp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans which were in the order of 30 mg/mL. These preliminary results confirm that the part of the studied plant had a very good antimicrobial activity that was proportional to the serial concentrations of the tested extracts.

In this study, the potential antimicrobial activity of plasma-activated tap water (PAW) was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. For this, PAW was prepared in a gliding arc plasma system using two treatment conditions: stagnant water and water stirring by a magnetic stirrer, called moving water. Subsequently, their oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), pH, electrical conductivity (σ), and total dissolved solids (TDS) were monitored in different areas of the sample divided according to the depth of the beaker. It was observed that PAW obtained in dynamic conditions showed a more uniform acidity among the evaluated areas with pH 3.53 and ORP of 215 mV. Finally, standardized suspensions of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia coli (ATCC 10799), and Candida albicans (SC 5314) were treated with PAW, and the reduction of viable cells determined the antimicrobial effect. Our results indicate that the tap water, activated by plasma treatment using gliding arc, is an excellent inactivation agent in the case of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. On the other hand, no significant antimicrobial activity was achieved for Candida albicans.
