- Background: diarrhea is one of the health problems that still needs moreattention especially in developing countries such as Indonesia. Shigellaflexneri is a bacterial isolates were found in most cases of diarrhea. Basedon scientific information about Garcinia mangostana L., this plant has apotentcy as an alternative treatment of antibacterial. Objective: the aimedof this study was to determined the antibacterial activity of n-hexane fractionof mangosteen peels (Garcinia mangostana L.) and the effectiveconcentration to inhibit growth of Shigella flexneri Method: mangosteenpeels were extracted by maceration method using 90% methanol then thisextracts was fractionated using n-hexane. The chemical compound of nheksanefraction was screened by phytochemical screening. Antibacterialactivity was conducted by using well diffusion with concentration of 5%,10%, 20%, and 40%. Ciprofloxacin 5μg/hole was used as positive controland DMSO 10% was used as negative control. Result: the phytochemicalscreening of n-heksana fraction of mangosteen peels is contains alkaloids,flavonoids, quinones and terpenoids. Concentration of 40% is the highestconcentration that has great antibacterial effect of all various concentrationtests but this concentration only moderate inhibition zone (p=0,000). Theinhibition zone of each concentration has decreased at 48 hours incubation.Conclusion: n-hexane fraction of mangosteen peels has antibacterialactivity against Shigella flexneri..
