Antibacterial and Wound Healing Activity of Papuyu Fish (Anabas Testudineus) Mucus

<p>One of the local fish resources in South Kalimantan is <em>Anabas testudineus</em> fish. It known that <em>A. mucus has antibacterial activity, but this study only looked at inhibitory mucus. Until now, there been no test for Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimal Bactericidal (MBC) testudineus </em>fish One bacteria infect wounds <em>S. aureus</em>. MIC MBC obtained are used as a reference determining concentration testedineus gel wound healing activity test. This aimed to determine aureus</em> analyze using turbidity In research, 3 formulas made. Wound on Wistar rats were given initiation with diameter 1.5 cm, observed after 7 days treatment. Observations made covering area image J histology rat skin. The results showed 21.875%. Fish formula was into concentrations 10%, 20% 40%. giving caused decrease based skin, inflammation still occurred.</p>
