The plant has been part of many different cultures for a long time, used as a food source, and is widely used to help improve health. This study aims to conduct phytochemical screening on tarap fruit seed extract to identify the secondary metabolite compounds contained in it with a focus on compounds such as polyphenols, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, steroids, and terpenoids. This study uses a qualitative experimental method to analyze phytochemistry by color test using various reagents from tarap fruit seed extract, to identify secondary metabolite compounds in the plant. Tarap fruit seed samples were obtained from local fruit sellers in Tarakan. Extraction of tarap fruit seeds was carried out using 96% ethanol with maceration technique, then examined the content of polyphenols, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, steroids and terpenoids. The results showed the presence of several secondary metabolites in tarap fruit seed extract, proving the content of polyphenols, alkaloids, saponins, and terpenoids, while tannins and steroids could not be detected. The conclusion is that the ethanol extract of tarap fruit seeds (Artocarpus odoratissimus) contains polyphenols, alkaloids, saponins, and terpenoids.

Identification of Gram-Negative Pathogenic Bacteria in Microbiology Practical Equipment at the Central Laboratory of Stikes Maharani, Malang
Abstract: 1382 |
PDF 67-80 (Indonesian): 1967
Abstract
Stacks of laboratory equipment and lack of routine sterilization can contribute to the growth and contamination of pathogenic bacteria. This research aimed to determine the types of gram-negative pathogenic bacteria present in the microbiology practicum equipment at the Central STIKes Maharani Malang Laboratory. This type of research is descriptive research with an analytical research design. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling. This research involves taking swab samples on the surface of practical microbiology equipment, isolating bacterial colonies using MCA (Mac Conkey Agar) media, making pure cultures on MCA slanted agar media, macroscopic observations, and biochemical tests. Bacteria were grown on MCA media for 2x24 hours. The results of research using gram staining showed gram-negative bacteria, rod-shaped, spread, and red. Biochemical tests showed glucose (+g), lactose (+), mannitol (+), maltose (+), sucrose (+), H2S (-), indole (-), Mr (Methyl Red) (-), Vp ( Voges Praskaeur) (+), citrate (+), motility (-), the bacterial species Klebsiella pneumoniae was found. The second result shows glucose (+g), lactose (+), mannitol (+), maltose (+), sucrose (+), H2S (-), indole (+), Mr (Methyl Red) (+), Vp ( Voges Praskaeur) (-), citrate (-), motility (-), found Escherichia coli bacterial species. This study concluded that it was found that gram-negative bacteria were rod-shaped, spread, and red. Meanwhile, from biochemical tests using glucose, lactose, mannitol, maltose, sucrose, ındol, MR, VP, and citrate, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli bacteria were found.
