Abstract

Central Kalimantan has abundant biodiversity, one of which is galam which is often found in swampy areas in Central Kalimantan. One example of the use of galam is processing it into soap products as an effort to manage plant-based waste typical of Central Kalimantan. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of galam soap (Melaleuca cajuputi) against Salmonella typhi bacteria, where the results of this study have the potential to be developed as a learning resource for the application of ethnoscience-based learning. This study used an experimental research method using the disc method and the research design was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The results showed that galam soap was effective in inhibiting the growth of Salmonella typhi bacteria. The results of these studies can be used as a learning resource in lecture activities as a form of implementation of ethnoscience-based learning using the results of recent research, because ethnoscience-based learning is expected to help create meaningful learning activities.
