Most bacterial infections of the skin and soft tissues are resolved within 7 to 10 days, it is difficult to estimate the exact incidence of skin and soft tissue infections as the clinical manifestations and duration of infection vary 2,3. The incidence of the disease is increasing due to an aging population and people with serious illnesses. Other causes of increased immunosuppressive drugs, malignancies, organ transplants, medical interventions, and surgical wound infections2. Staphylococcus aureus is known as a pathogenic bacterium that infects humans. addition, this bacterium is an opportunistic pathogen and commensal bacterium4. These bacteria cause infections that spread to blood vessels and produce toxins resulting in shock This type of bacteria is grampositive and occurs naturally in various parts of the human body, including the skin, mucous membranes of the nose, mouth and colon. When a person's immune system is weakened, the bacteria can become pathogenic and cause boils, abscesses, and various inflammation-related Empirically in the Minahasa area, especially in Lemoh Village. Chinese betel leaf (P. pellucida L. ) is used by the local community as a traditional prevention and treatment of infectious diseases caused by bacteria by taking the leaves of the Chinese betel leaf plant with a hand grip and then mashing it until smooth after that it is attached to the injured skin surface area. Therefore, it is necessary to prove on a laboratory scale whether Chinese betel leaves have antibacterial activity. e-ISSN 2685-3167 p-ISSN 2828-6685 GF254 KLT plate, capillary pipette, cotton, sterile gauze, aluminum foil, mortar and pestle, 10cm petri dish, gloves, mask, lab coat, stationery, camera, container, knife, 8mm paper disc, spatula, tweezers, pipette, 1. 5ml eppendorf.

Methanol eluent is a polar solvent while chloroform is a non-polar solvent, which is an eluent containing a solvent that can attract flavonoid compounds well12. The results of the TLC test shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6, obtained the Rf value of each according to the distance traveled by the eluent. The alkaloid test had three stains with Rf values 11, 0. 15: 0. Stains with Rf values of 0. 15 are suspected of having alkaloid compounds because they are included in the alkaloid test Rf range of 0. The flavonoid test had six stains with Rf values of The stain with an Rf value of 0. 35 is suspected to have flavonoid compounds because it is included in the flavonoid test Rf range of 0. 2 - 0. The tannin test has four stains with Rf values of 0. The four Rf values are included in the Rf range of the tannin test, which is 0. Tests of TLC metabolite compounds in this study on samples of Chinese betel leaf juice have alkaloid, flavonoid and tannin compounds because they are included in the Rf range in the resulting stain patches. The results of the Rf values are different because they are influenced by the eluent used, the eluent greatly affects the Rf value because it is the mobile phase on the TLC and because it is influenced by the level of polarity.

Alkaloids are special naturally occurring metabolites with nitrogen as a characteristic element present in their chemical structure. The rich biological potential of alkaloids is attributed to the different arrangement of atoms in their chemical structure20. And the mechanism of Alkaloid as an antibacterial is by interfering with the constituent components of peptidoglycan in Biofarmasetikal Tropis e-ISSN 2685-3167 p-ISSN 2828-6685 (The Tropical Journal of Biopharmaceutica. 2024, 7. , 25-33 bacterial cells so that the cell wall layer is not formed intact and ultimately results in incomplete cell formation21. Flavonoids are natural chemicals found in Flavonoid compounds are distributed in plant parts such as seeds, flowers, leaves, roots and stems22. Flavonoids are phenolic compounds that are polar in nature23. As an antibacterial, it can be divided into 3 categories: inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis, inhibiting cell membrane function, and inhibiting energy metabolism. Flavonoids will damage the cytoplasmic membrane and cause leakage of important metabolites, thus inactivating the bacterial enzyme system24. Tannins, on the other hand, can act as antibacterials by reacting with the cell membrane to inactivate enzymes and disable the function of genetic material. In addition, tannin compounds also have antibacterial mechanisms that can inhibit reverse transcriptase and DNA topoisomerase enzymes, thus preventing the formation of bacterial cells24. The structure and composition of bacterial cells also play an important role in antibacterial Staphylococcus aureus bacteria are widespread flora that often cause disease and have the same potential as invasive pathogens based on coagulase synthesis. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most resistant types of bacteria because it is based on bacteria that do not produce spores25. The results of data analysis using the Kruskal Wallis test in Table 5 show a P value or Asymptotic significance value of 0. 035 <0. which means that it is smaller than the specified significant value of 0. 05 with a confidence level of 95%, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference or meaningful difference from each concentration, the effect of the inhibition zone of Chinese betel leaf juice on the growth of S. aureus bacteria that can inhibit bacterial growth affects the analysis.
