Pengaruh Berbagai Konsentrasi Ekstrak Bunga Belimbing Wuluh (AVERRHOA BILIMBI) terhadap Zona Hambat Pertumbuhan Streptococcus Pyogenes

The Effect Of Concentrations Of Averrhoa Bilimbi On The Inhibition Zone
Of The Growth Of Streptococcus Pyogenes. Streptococcus pyogenes can cause
pharyngitis (sore throat) and impetigo (skin infection). Then, the purpose of this study
was to analyze the effect of various concentrations of Averrhoa bilimbi in the formation
of inhibitory zones of the growth of Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria. The population in
this study was the whole of Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria, and the sample of this
study was pure culture of Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria. The data analysis
techniques used were the Kruskal Wallis Test and the Mann Whitney Test. The results
showed that there was an effect of giving various concentrations of Averrhoa bilimbi to
the inhibition zones of the growth of Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria. The
concentration of Averrhoa bilimbi which has the best effect on the inhibitory zone
diameter of Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria which is 25% with an average inhibition
zone diameter of 1,392 mm.
