Abstract
Evaluation of antimicrobial effectiveness of kacangma extract was carried out using disc diffusion test and direct inhibition test. Result showed that ethanol extracts at concentration of 50 and 100 mg/mL inhibited Staphylococcus aureus. Water extracts at concentration 10, 25, 50 and 100 mg/mL inhibited Aspergillus niger, 25, 50 and 100 mg/mL inhibited Saccharomyces cerevisae and at concentration 100 mg/mL inhibited Staphylococcus aureus. Heat treatments during direct inhibition test with incorporation of extracts did not show any differences of inhibitory effects against all microorganisms tested.
