SKRINING AKTIVITAS ANTIMIKROBA DAN UJI FITOKIMIA DARI KAPANG ENDOFITIK TANAMAN DAHLIA (DAHLIA VARIABILIS)
Abstract: Dahlia variabilis
has many beneficial effects to human health, such asantibacterial and
antifungi. This research was to discover the potencyof endophytes from Dahlia
as antimicrobial agents. A total number offour endophytic molds were isolated
from Dahlia’s tuber. Thescreenings were carried out using the agar diffusion
method againtspathogens with concentrations 50 μL/disc. The inhibition zone
ofamoxsan was (12,55 ± 0,38) mm and ketoconazole was (17,67 ±0,57) mm. The
crude extract of endophytic mold, LBKURCC 41(Aureobasidium sp) showed the most
significant of inhibition zones.The Inhibition zone of crude extract of LBKURCC
41 to Eschericia colliand Staphylococcus aureus were (19,33±1,15) mm and
(17,00±1,00)mm respectively. The crude extract of LBKURCC 41 was identified
byphytochemical screenings method. The result showed the presence ofsaponin.
Three other isolates LBKURCC 40 (Monilia sp) andLBKURCC 42 (Moniliella sp) and
LBKURCC 43 (Sporothrix sp)showed no activity as an antimicrobial. These results
indicated thatendophytic mold could be a promising source for antimicrobial
agents.
