Based on empirical data, inggili fruit is used to remove acne on the skin and diarrheal diseases. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of methanol extract of inggili pulp in inhibiting Propionibacterium acnes and Escherichia coli bacteria using the sumuran diffusion method. The research conducted is experimental. The object under study was the antibacterial activity of inggili fruit extract against Propionibacterium acnes and Escherichia coli bacteria.
