Abstract

Bar soap is a skin cleansing preparation in solid form made from soap with the addition of desired ingredients, be they natural ingredients or dangerous chemicals. Hydroquinone is a dangerous chemical which, if added excessively to facial cleansing soap, can cause hyperpigmentation on the skin. The use of hydroqunon according to BPOM regulation no. 18 of 2015 is included in the class of hard drugs. Hydroquinone is prohibited from being used because it has dangerous side effects such as skin irritation, facial redness such as a burning sensation and can also cause black spots on the face. This type of research is a laboratory observational study which aims to analyze the hydroquinone levels in bar facial cleansing soap that is sold at the Minasa Maupa market, Sungguminasa, Gowa Regency. The sampling technique was carried out by purposive sampling. The samples were tested qualitatively using the thin layer chromatography method and if positive results were obtained, quantitative analysis was continued using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method. From the research results of 10 samples of bar facial cleansing soap, 1 sample was positive for containing hydroquinone, indicated by the presence of stains when observed under a UV lamp with an Rf value of 0.427, while the standard Rf value was 0.438. Meanwhile, the other 9 samples did not contain stains so the Rf value could not be calculated. Next, the positive samples were continued with quantitative analysis to obtain a hydroquinone level of 0.013%. The levels obtained were stated to be still below the standards set by BPOM No. 18 of 2015 which amounted to 0.02%

Abstract

Cholesterol testing is an important parameter for monitoring lipid metabolism disorders characterized by a decrease or increase in lipid content. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of storage time on serum samples for cholesterol testing that is delayed by 2 hours and immediate testing. This research was conducted in the laboratory of Puskesmas Tarakan using laboratory observation with the CHOD-PAP method, with the research subjects being students of Politeknik Muhammadiyah Makassar. Based on the cholesterol examination results using 15 samples that were directly tested, there were 3 samples that showed an increase and 12 other samples had normal values. After a 2-hour delay, there was a decrease in all 15 samples. In the paired sample t-test, it can be observed that the average serum sample for direct examination is 170 mg/dl, while the serum sample delayed by 2 hours has an average value of 131 mg/dl, showing a significance of 0.01 < 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant effect between the direct serum sample and the serum sample delayed by 2 hours. The storage of serum at room temperature must be done immediately to ensure more accurate results and to avoid enzyme changes in the serum.Key words: CHOD-PAP, cholesterol, direct examination.

Abstract

Gallons of refilled drinking water usually don't run out in a single use but run out in a few days or even up to 1 to 2 weeks, depending on usage, and stored at room temperature (27-29 °C). Drinking water that is stored for a long time will allow the growth of microorganisms which are influenced by environmental factors, namely temperature conditions and oxygen supply during storage. This affects the pH and total organic content of drinking water. Inspection of the quality of water products according to the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 492/MENKES/PER/IV/2010, which is a maximum organic matter content of 10 mg/L. According to chemical parameters, drinking water must not contain inorganic and organic substances exceeding the standard with a pH value between 6.5-8.5. The purpose of this study was to determine the levels of organic substances in RO (Reverse Osmosis) refill drinking water. This type of research is a laboratory experiment using purposive sampling technique. The results showed that the average organic content of refilled drinking water with a storage period of 0 days was 1.839 mg/L, 3 days was 2.57 mg/L, and 6 days was 5.28 mg/L. Thus, the levels of organic substances in drinking water are based on storage time of 0, 3, and 6 days using the spectrophotometric method according to the maximum drinking water quality standard.

Abstract

Typhoid fever is an acute systemic disease caused by the bacterium Salmonella typhi. Salmonella typhi found in the small intestine will multiply and then produce endotoxin, where the endotoxin produced is a lipopolysaccharide complex and is considered to play a key role in the pathogenesis of typhoid fever. If it enters the body, it will cause the body's condition to become weak, making it easier for Salmonella typhi bacteria to attack body tissues such as the liver and cause SGPT levels to increase. Liver damage in patients with typhoid fever in the form of changes in hepatomegaly, jaundice, biochemical, and histopathological changes. This study aims to provide an overview of Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT) levels in patients with typhoid fever at Haji General Hospital, Makassar City. The method in this study was descriptive, with a sample population of 10 typhoid fever patients. The sampling technique used is Random Sampling. From a study conducted on 10 samples of typhoid fever patients, it was found that 6 samples had normal SGPT levels, and 4 samples had high SGPT levels, with the highest level being 95.2 µl and the lowest level being 15.9 µl. It can be concluded that the increased levels of SGPT in patients with typhoid fever is due to strenuous physical activity and taking certain drugs which can trigger increased levels of SGPT.

Abstract

Pinang (Areca catechu L.) is one of the plants in the Palmae family. The practice of consuming betel nut has been a long-standing tradition among some Indonesian communities. The parts of the betel nut most commonly consumed are the seeds and the young fruit husk. The husk is often mixed with betel leaf and lime, and its benefits have traditionally been used for medicinal purposes. To assess the quality and nutritional value of this food ingredient, it is necessary to conduct an analysis of macronutrient content and antioxidant potential. The use of antioxidant compounds is becoming more widespread as public understanding of their role in inhibiting degenerative diseases and premature aging grows. It is known that betel nut husk contains numerous antioxidant compounds that operate by capturing free radicals. The objective of this research is to determine the macronutrient content through proximate analysis and the antioxidant activity (IC50) of betel nut husk. Proximate analysis includes total water content (determined using thermogravimetry), total ash content (via dry ashing), total protein content (measured using the Kjeldahl method), total fat content (via Soxhlet extraction), carbohydrate content, and crude fiber content. The results obtained indicate a total water content of 9.10%, total ash content of 4.36%, total protein content of 5.92%, total fat content of 0.83%, carbohydrate content of 79.8%, and crude fiber content of 49.57%. Meanwhile, the antioxidant activity value (IC50) of the methanol fraction is 45.27 µg/mL. These test results show that the methanol extract from betel nut husk contains compounds with potential as antioxidants
