The experiment was carried out according to the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of six treatments and three replications for each treatment. The treatments were different concentration levels of BSF extract, i.e. 75, 125, 175, 225, 275 and 325 mg.ml −1 . Chloramphenicol with concentration of 30 µg. discs paper −1 was used as a positive control and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a negative control. BSF extract was made using maceration extraction method. The results of this study indicated that the antibacterial activity of BSF extract increased (P<0.05) in line with the increase level of BSF extract concentration. The average diameter of the inhibition zone for Salmonella typhimurium, E. coli and Pseudomonas aureginosa was 11.77 ± 0.03 mm, 11.15 ± 0.05 mm, and 11.15 ± 0.23 mm respectively, which was categorized as strong inhibition zone. In conclusion, the concentration of BSF extract of 325 mg.ml −1 is an effective concentration to inhibit the growth of the bacteria Salmonella typhimurium, E. coli and Pseudomonas aureginosa . ## Keywords - Salmonella - Hermetia illucens - Antibacterial activity - Microbiology - Pseudomonas - Bacteria - Chemistry - Pseudomonas aeruginosa - Food science - Chloramphenicol - Biology - Antibiotics - Botany - Genetics - Larva --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
