Abstract

Eucheuma spinosum is a seaweed that has not been widely used as a source of bioactive material from algae, which has a high content of carrageenan and secondary metabolites which are thought to have the potential to have antibacterial activity. Eucheuma spinosum has been tested by phytochemical screening with UV-Vis spectrophotometer showing that Eucheuma spinosum contains active compounds including flavonoids, triterpenoids, alkaloids and ascorbic acid. The working method used is an experimental and qualitative research design. Extraction of Eucheuma spinosum using maceration with 99% ethanol solvent and evaporated using a Rotary Evaporator to obtain a crude extract yield of 1.54%. The phytochemical screening test used thin layer chromatography and precipitation tests. The results of the antibacterial test using the disc diffusion method (Kirby-Bauer test) with positive control clindamycin 10µl/ml as comparison and aquadest negative control obtained through a literature study. This study uses data analysis in the form of descriptive analysis and content analysis. The results of the phytochemical screening test of Eucheuma spinosum extract and the results of testing the antibacterial activity of Staphylococcus epidermidis based on research data that have been carried out by several previous researchers through journal reviews are suspected to be effective for tackling acne-causing bacteria, Staphylococcus epidermidis. The antibacterial activity is because seaweed contains secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, and saponins. The need for herbal therapy to treat diseases caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria to reduce bacterial resistance to antibiotics.
