Uji Daya Hambat Jamur Endofit Rimpang Lengkuas (Alpinia Galanga L.) Terhadap Pertumbuhan Bakteri Escherichia Coli Dan Staphylococcus Aureus

: Endophytic fungi could be used as an alternative antibiotic because it produced bioactive compounds, which are developed as basic ingredients for medicine such as antibiotic, antioxcide, anticancer. Endophytic fungi can be isolated from Rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. which is abundant in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to find the inhibiting zone of endophytic fungi rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. to the growth of Staphylococcus aueus and Escherichia coli. This was an experimental laboratory study using modified Kirby-Bauer well diffusion technique in Marine Pharmaceutical and Biology Molecular laboratory of FPIK faculty in Sam Ratulangi University. Endophytic fungi were produced by Rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. which are cultured in carbohydrate-rich media. Then, it produced various fungi isolate, which is being used for testing its bioactiy to Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The results showed that only 2 isolates of endophytic fungi that have inhibitory and the range of the average value of inhibition zone endophytic fungi rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. against Staphylococcus aureus 19 mm to 21.3 mm, while the Escherichia coli 21.3 mm to 22.3 mm. Conclusion: Endophytic fungi Rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. could inhibit the bacterial growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli
