The Effectiveness of Treating Medical Gauze used to Cover Wounds and Burns with Aqueous Extract of Pomegranate Peel against Bacteria
Abstract
The research aimed to study the effectiveness of treating medical gauze with pomegranate peel extract against bacteria to improve the properties of medical gauze used to cover wounds and burns to help protect against bacterial contamination, and to reach the most appropriate concentration of the aqueous extract of pomegranate peel to treat medical gauze used to cover wounds and burns.
The research follows the experimental method by treating medical gauze fabrics with different concentrations of aqueous extract of pomegranate peel. Different concentrations of aqueous extract of pomegranate peel (25%, 50%, 75%) were used and their effectiveness was measured against Escherichia coli, Gram-negative bacteria, and Staphyiococcus aureus bacteria. Gram positive.
The research found that increasing the concentration of the aqueous extract of pomegranate peel was more effective in inhibiting bacteria. The highest percentage of effect of treatment with the aqueous extract of pomegranate peel at a concentration of 75% was on the bacteria Escherichia coli & Staphyiococcus aureus when the temperature was held between 24 - 30 degrees Celsius for 48 hours 12 mm The diameter of the inhibition zone, and that the use of natural plant materials is considered safe. In addition, the use of wasted parts of plants that are classified as waste works on sustainability. The research recommended the need to pay attention to treating non-sterile medical gauze against bacteria because of its important function in dressing wounds and burns to prevent the growth of bacteria.
