Documentation, antimycobacterial activity, and phytochemical profiling of selected medicinal plants used by the jakun community in Johor

Tuberculosis (TB) is a major threat to human health due to its increasing global epidemiology and emerging drug-resistant strains. While traditional knowledge (TK) could be a tool for development of novel TB treatment, TK itself is at verge of loss due to modernization and deforestration. The object...

While traditional knowledge (TK) could be a tool for development of novel TB treatment, TK itself is at verge of loss due to modernization and deforestration. The objectives of the study were to document the TK of medicinal plants used for the treatment of TB and its related symptoms as practiced by the Jakun community ofKampung Peta, situated in Taman Negara Johor Endau Rompin; to investigate the antimycobacterial activity and mechanism of action of the selected medicinal plants extracts; and to profile their major phytochemical constituents. Documentation of TK were analyzed qualitatively from semi-structured interviews. Among 23 species documented, water and organic crude extracts of selected plants were evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity using agar disk diffusion, resazurin microplate assay, and agar plate assay against Mycobacterium smegmatis.
