- Abstract
This study aims to determine the essential oils most effective in inhibiting the growth of pathogenic fungi (mold and yeast) in animal feed ingredients. Comparisons were made to the essential oils made from the peel of 3 types of citrus fruits: Pomelo, Sweet orange, and Lime. The research was conducted in 2016 at the Medicinal Plants Research Center and the Bogor Veterinary Research Center. Essential oils of all three types of orange peel were obtained by distilling in water and steam. The effectiveness of fungal growth inhibition was determined using the agar plate dilution method by using the Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method. Furthermore, an analysis was carried out with a Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrophotometer (GC-MS) to determine the content of essential oils in each orange peel. Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., and Candida spp. were selected as representatives of the fungal pathogen test. It was revealed that the content of essential oils in each orange peel used differed. It was concluded the essential oil from the Lime peel had in its composition the most excellent antifungal properties compared to the Sweet orange and Pomelo.
