Application of two level factorial design to study the microbe growth inhibition by pineapple leaves juice

The yield of Ananas comosus (pineapple) is susceptible to microbial infection such as fusariosis which normally affecting the fruits and the leaves. Usage of chemical pesticides to control these diseases has been often associated with negative impacts on the environment and human health. Since pinea...

The objective of this research is to study the factors that affect microbe growth inhibition using pineapple leaves juice (PLJ). The factors evaluated were; reaction time between mixtures of PLJ with microbe (0.5 – 5 hours), concentration of TPC in PLJ (0.2563 – 0.5127 mg GAE/mL), reaction temperature (26 – 37°C), and ratio of microbe to PLJ (M/PLJ) (1:1 and 1:3).
