Overview

Experimental analysis shows Javanese turmeric significantly inhibits Enterococcus faecalis, indicating its potential as an antibacterial agent.

Key Points

  • Javanese turmeric extracts demonstrated higher effectiveness against Enterococcus faecalis compared to red ginger extracts.
  • At 75% concentration, Javanese turmeric average inhibition zone reached 14.44 mm, while red ginger was only 13.64 mm.
  • The experimental study utilized statistical analysis to confirm effectiveness among the extracts and a control group of NaOCl.
  • Findings suggest Javanese turmeric could serve as a more effective alternative for dental infections linked to antibiotic resistance.
