Background: Today, people use plants to treat various types of diseases and improve human health. One of the medicinal plants is the Betadine plant ( L.). Betadine plants have many functions, especially the sap, leaves, fruit and seeds. The compound contents in Betadine stem sap, which is efficacious as an antimicrobial, are saponins, tannins, flavonoids and labaditin. One of the bacteria that cause infection is These bacteria can cause opportunistic and nosocomial infections.

Methods: This study was a true experimental laboratory with a post-test only control group design. This study used Betadine stem sap extract with concentrations of 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, gentamicin cream 10% as positive control, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution as negative control. This study used the Kirby-Bauer diffusion method and the bacterium was grown on nutrient agar media, then incubated for 24 hours and calculated using calipers. Research data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA test.

Results: The highest inhibition zone was group 50% (12.725 ± 0.2500 mm) while the lowest inhibition zone was group 100% (8.675 ± 0.5620 mm).

Conclusions: Betadine stem extract had antibacterial activity in inhibiting the growth of bacteria, with the 50% concentration being the most effective in inhibiting the growth of bacteria.

Background: Burn injuries are an alarming indicator of the sensitivity of human tissue when confronted with high temperatures or chemicals. The current treatment for burn wounds needs to be improved and more extensive in scope. Significant research advances concerning the therapeutic potential of secretomes over the past two decades have expanded the range of therapies that utilize secretomes to encompass populations other than stem cells.

Background: The Reconstructive Allograft Preparation by Toronto Sarcoma (RAPTORS) protocol is reliable and reproducible without substantially adding to the surgical reconstruction time or cost. Our technique includes clearance of debris, lavage of the medullary canal, pressurized filling of the medullary canal with antibiotic-laden cement for its mechanical and antimicrobial properties, and insertion of cancellous autograft at the allograft-host junctional ends prior to dual-plate compression to fix the allograft into the defect. Our experience with large intercalary allograft reconstruction has demonstrated high rates of long-term success and addresses the most common causes of large allograft failure (infection, fracture, and nonunion), as shown in our long-term outcome study.
