Abstract

Obesity is a condition of impaired body weight control system indicated by excessive fat accumulation in the body (i.e., exceeding 20% of ideal body weight) which can cause increased blood glucose levels and systemic inflammation. Obesity assessment can be measured using the Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist Circumference Ratio (WC). The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in glucose and CRP levels between obese and non-obese elderly in the Aisyiyah Baiturrohmah Elderly Home Community. This research method is comparative analytical observational, to see the comparison of Glucose and CRP levels in obese and non-obese elderly. The sample collection technique used the total sampling method with a cross-sectional approach with a total sample of 31 elderly (17 obese elderly and 14 non-obese elderly). The results of the study were in the form of primary data from the results of glucose examinations using the Point of Care Test method and CRP examinations using the latex agglutination method. The results of statistical analysis of glucose examinations using the one sample t-test showed a p-value of 0.001 which indicated a significant difference between obese and non-obese glucose levels. Meanwhile, statistical tests were not carried out on CRP because all samples were found to be non-reactive, so it was stated that no significant difference was found between the CRP of obese elderly and the CRP of non-obese elderly

Abstract

Makeup sponges are porous cosmetic application tools that are reused and can potentially become a breeding ground for microorganisms if not cleaned regularly. One bacterium that can contaminate makeup sponges is Staphylococcus aureus, which are knew to do play with a role in various skin also soft tissue infections. This reseach was purposelly to identifying the presence of S. aureus towards makeup sponges used by college students. The study employed a quantitative experimental method using purposive sampling on 30 samples of makeup sponges that had been used for at least 1–2 months. Samples were grouped based on washing frequency: frequently washed, rarely washed, and never washed. Bacterial identification was performed via inoculation on Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA) medium, followed by subculturing, Gram staining, catalase testing, and coagulase testing. The results of the study showed colony growth on MSA medium, indicated by a yellow discoloration of the medium. Gram staining revealed coccus-shaped cells arranged in clusters and stained purple, indicating the characteristics of Gram-positive bacteria. The catalase and coagulase tests yielded positive results, confirming the presence of Staphylococcus aureus. Of the 30 samples examined, 7 positive samples were found in the group of sponges that were rarely washed, 6 positive samples in the group that were never washed, and 3 positive samples in the group that were frequently washed. These findings indicate that S. aureus contamination is more common in sponges that are rarely or never washed compared to those cleaned regularly.
