CHARACTERISTIC AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY TEST OF RED BETEL LEAF ESSENTIAL OIL AGAINST PROPIONIBACTERIUM ACNE BACTERIA

Subject

anti-bacterial; essential oil; propionibacterium acne; physical quality characteristics of the oil, red betel leaf

Description

Many Indonesian plants have the potential to have anti-acne activity, one of which is the red betel plant.
Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum) contains flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and essential oils which are thought
to be used as antimicrobials. The purpose of this study was to test the quality characteristics and test the
antibacterial activity of red betel leaf essential oil against Propionibacterium acne bacteria. This research
was an experimental study by identifying the physical quality and testing the antibacterial activity of the
essential oil. human senses with the results of the smell or aroma obtained, namely the strong or stinging
characteristic odor of red betel. The color of the essential oil obtained was yellow with a little brownish,
bitter taste, the pH obtained from the essential oil was 4.65, the specific gravity of red betel leaf essential
oil was 0.739, the ethanol soluble test obtained from the essential oil completely dissolved and white clear
in a quantity of alcoholic solution. Antibacterial activity test results with red betel leaf essential oil
concentrations of 5%, 10%, and 20%, could inhibit antibacterial of 7.16 mm, 10.3 mm, and 11.6 mm.
