What is Antibacterial Activity of Sembung Oil about?

This study investigates the antibacterial activity of essential oil extracted from Sembung (Blumea balsamifera) leaves against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. The oil was isolated using steam distillation, yielding 0.21%, and exhibited significant antibacterial effects, particularly at 80% concentration for E. coli and 100% for the other two bacteria. The findings suggest that Sembung leaf essential oil has strong potential as a natural antibacterial agent.
