Abstract

The study was conducted to identify the effect of meniran plant powder ( Phyllanthus niruri Linn .) on microorganism activity ( Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) and Escherichia coli ). The LAB extract was put in De Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) medium and the Escherichia coli extract was put in E-Coli Medium (EM). The pure culture LAB and Escherichia coli was used to identify the effect of meniran plant powder ( Phyllanthus niruri Linn .) using diffusion method. The experiment consisted of 6 treatments (P0= aquadest 100%, P1= antibiotic 100%, P2= meniran plant powder 0%, P3= meniran plant powder 50%, P4= meniran plant powder 75% and P5= meniran plant powder 100%). Variables in this research were inhibition of BAL and Escherichia coli . The study used a Nested Completely Randomized Design and if there were different effects among the treatments it would be then followed by a Duncan’s Multiple Range test. The study showed that the use of meniran plant powder ( Phyllanthus niruri Linn .) had a significant effect on inhibition of BAL and Escherichia coli (P<0.01). Keywords : meniran plant, feed additive , Lactic acid bacteria and Escherichia coli
