PENGARUH KETINGGIAN TEMPAT TUMBUH PADA TANAMAN SEREH (Cymbopogon citrus) DAN AKTIVITAS ANTIBAKTERI Streptococcus mutans
Abstract
Tanaman sereh Cymbopogon citrus (DC.) Stapf merupakan salah satu tanaman sereh penghasil minyak atsiri yang digunakan sebagai antibakteri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh ketinggian tempat tumbuh dan aktivitas antibakteri. Masing-masing sampel dari ketinggian 935 m dol, 260 m dpl, dan 10 m dpl didestilasi dengan metode destilasi uap air kemudian dilanjutkan pengujian antibakteri, analisis kualitatif menggunakan GCMS. Aktivitas antibakteri menggunakan metode Disc Diffusion Kirby-Bauer menggunakan medium MHA dengan waktu inkubasi selama 24 jam pada suhu 37°C terhadap bakteri Streptococcus mutans. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa minyak atsiri dari sereh yang paling baik aktivitas antibakteri terdapat pada ketinggian 935 m dpl yang memiliki adaya hambat terhadap Streptococcus mutans sebesar 11,5 mm.
