In Vitro Test of Cefadroxil Interaction with Banana and Milk Against Staphylococcus aureus using Disc Difusion Method

Uji In Vitro Interaksi Cefadroxil dengan Pisang dan Susu terhadap Bakteri Staphylococcus aureus dengan Metode Difusi Cakram

Abstract

This study aims to determine the presence of cefadroxil interactions with food and drinks on the growth of
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria in vitro. This research was conducted in a qualitative experimental manner.
The positive control used was 0,01% cefadroxil antibiotics, the negative control used was sterile aquadest,
and the samples used were bananas and milk. There are 4 concentrations that is 10%, 20%, 40%, and 80%
with three repetitions using the disc diffusion method. The One Way Anova and LSD test obtained p <α
(0.05) so that there were differences in the growth inhibition zones of Staphylococcus aureus at various
concentrations.
