Materials and Methods: H37Rv sensitive strain, streptomycin-rifampicin (SR) resistant strain, and isoniazid-ethambutol (HE) resistant strain were evaluated by susceptibility test by using a serial number of three different extracts of binahong with the range of concentration was 50 μg/mL-1000 μg/mL. Minimum Inhibition Concentration (MIC) was read as a minimum concentration of extracts that completely inhibited visible growth of the organisms. Synergistic study of extract with anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs was determined by susceptibility test in Lowenstein Jensen (LJ) media by calculating the Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index (FICI). Results: The results show that n-hexane extract of binahong leaves had better antimycobacterial activity compared to other extracts with the MIC was 500 μg/mL against H37Rv strain or SR strain of MTB and 250 μg/mL against HE strain. The combination of n-hexane extract and anti-TB drugs also displayed a synergistic interaction and no antagonism result from the combination was observed. Conclusion: These results indicated that n-hexane extract of binahong leaves may serve as a template for the development of novel antimycobacterial compounds.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Anredera cordifolia,Drug combination,Mycobacterium tuberculosis,Susceptibility test[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.7324/JAPS.2018.8518[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
