Abstract

Nowadays the amount of bacteria with antibiotic resistance is rapidly increasing and is causing problems all around the world. One of such bacteria is the Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus or commonly known as MRSA. It is a strain of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria that has developed resistance against antibiotics with ß-lactam, which are basically most of the commonly used antibiotics to treat Staphylococcus infections. In this research the antibacterial activity of the extract from five different types of mangrove species will be tested against the MRSA bacteria. The Sonneratia caseolaris, Avicennia marina, Rhizophora mucronata, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, and Rhizophora apiculata were the mangrove species that were chosen for this experiment. The experiment was conducted using the KirbyBauer-Disk-Diffusion-Assay, which is the most commonly used method in order to quantitatively measure the antibacterial activity of a substance. Other than the antibacterial assay, the total phenolic and flavonoid content of the mangrove extracts were also determined, along with the antioxidant properties and the toxicity of the extracts.
