Abstract
This study tested Artemisia herba-alba leaf extract, Peganum harmala seed extract, and Phycocyanin against Porphyromonas gingivalis. The data showed that concentration and exposure period affected water extract and drug efficacy. This study examined the freezing and soluble antibacterial properties of the phycocyanin protein. Phycocyanin inhibited the development of natural and mutant bacteria at various doses. The results showed that a concentration of 10% for the extract of Artemisia herba-alba leaves and aqueous extract of Peganum harmala seeds and a mixture of them killed the most bacteria after 24 hours, while a concentration of 1% had the least effect, killing 62.7% and 81% of the bacteria after 120 hours. A mixture of aqueous extracts of Artemisia herba-alba leaves and Peganum harmala seeds killed bacteria 100% after 24 hours at 8% to 10%. The drug's PC protein reduced mutant strains' bacteria growth surface area
