Abstract :

  Bacteria are single-celled organisms, reproduce by dividing themselves (asexual) that reproduce by way of extending  the cell nucleus followed by cell division called binary fission (Prajitno, 2005) and can only be viewed with a microscope because of their small size (Dwijoseputro, 1989 .) One of the bacteria that cause the greatest failures in the cultivation of freshwater fish and sea water is furunculosis (presence of a number of furuncles at the same time) caused by  the bacterium Aeromonas salmonicida  (Cipriano and Bullock, 2001). A. salmonicida  is divided  into several subspecies, among others, A. salmonicida subspecies salmonicida, subspecies masoucida, subspecies achromogenes and  subspecies  smithia  (Hiney and Olivier, 1999). Fish infected with these bacteria will show symptoms such as fish body color becomes darker, the ability to swim  down,  resulting  haemorrhagic  septicemia,  the  abdomen  looks  bloated,  the  eyes  and  slightly  protruding damaged  fish  (exopthalmia), all damaged  fins, and gills become pale and damaged  (Buller, 2004). The method  used  in  the  research  is  experimental method. This  study  aims  to  determine whether  fruit majapahit juice (C. cujete L.) has antibacterial power against bacteria A. salmonicida and find out whether or not sensitive majapahit juice (C. cujete L.) in inhibiting the growth of bacteria A. salmonicida with standard comparator antibiotic kanamycin. Research conducted at the Laboratory of Bacteriology Hall Fish Quarantine Airport Highway Ir. H. Juanda Street No.23, Semambung Village Sedati- Sidoarjo District, East  Java Province  in February 2011. The results showed that the juice majapahit (C. cujete L.) could inhibit bacterial growth of A. salmonicida against in vitro, but when compared with standard antibiotic kanamycin 30 µg still relatively insensitive to inhibit bacterial growth of A.  salmonicida.
