EFFECT OF ETHANOL EXTRACT OF MORINGA LEAF (MORINGA OLEIFERA) ON THE NUMBER OF GERMS IN ANTISEPTIC PREPARATIONS
Abstract
Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera Lam) have benefits as antimicrobial, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory (anti-inflammatory), and viral infections. Moringa leaves contain secondary metabolites such as polyphenols consisting of non-flavonoids and flavonoids, phenols, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, and triterpenoids. This study aims to determine the effect of ethanol extract of Moringa leaves in hand sanitizer gel preparations on the number of germsĀ at concentrations of 2%, 4%, 6% and 8%. The research method for testing germ numbers is the total plate number method by looking at the number of bacterial colonies that die after using the antiseptic gel. The research results showed that the percentage of dead bacteria was at concentration 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%, the positive control and the negative control were 16,10%; 38,6%; 44,44%; 62,55%; 86,45% and 14,11%. The higher the concentration of the extract in the gel preparation, the more the number of bacterial colonies that died.
