All rights reserved.Shrimp is an economically important animal which is exposed to any kind of bacterial infection such as vibriosis. In this short report, ten Indonesian traditional plant extracts were tested against two Vibrio bacteria (V. alginolitycus and V. harveyi) resulting in Usnea sp. as the promising plant to contain antibacterial agents. Usnic acid was then isolated as the main component of the aceton extract of Usnea sp. Using zone inhibition method, this compound gave a moderate activity against V. harveyi, but not against V. alginolitycus and V. parahemolyticus.[/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]Usnic acid,V. alginolitycus,V. harveyi,V. parahaemolitycus,Vibriosis[/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]The authors are very thankful to the financial support from the Office of Vice Rector of Research and Innovation, ITB, in the form of 2018 P3MI grant.[/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][/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]
