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

Abstract

An electric cigarette is a tool that functions to convert chemical substances into the form of vapor and distributes them to the lungs using electricity. One of the harmful elements contained in cigarettes is nicotine. If nicotine circulates in the body, it stimulates the secretion of the adrenaline hormone resulting in an increase in heart rate, blood pressure and changes in fat metabolism. This study aims to describe cholesterol levels in e-cigarette users in Mamajang sub-district. This research is a laboratory observation which aims to describe cholesterol levels in e-cigarette users in Mamajang district. The number of samples used were 20 samples. The object of this research is the blood of electric smokers using the POCT method. From the results of research conducted on 20 samples. 6 of them got increased results and 14 samples got normal. So it can be concluded that of the 20 samples, 6 samples (74%) got normal results and 6 samples (26%) got increased results.

Abstract

Pediculosis is an infectious disease caused by lice with symptoms of itching on various parts of the skin. Living in a crowded environment means that foster children have the same personal hygiene and use shared combs. Orphanage sanitation facilities are not good and the bedrooms are narrow which also affects the cleanliness of every foster child living in the orphanage. This study aims to determine the description of pediculosis in children from orphanages in Jalan Andi Mappaodang, Makassar City. The type of research used in this research is descriptive with laboratory observation tests. The population in this study is all children from the orphanage. The sample used was 20 children in several orphanages. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling with the criteria of age 3-11 years, hair length, and gender. Based on research that has been conducted, all of the 20 lice samples from respondents examined were positive, namely infected with pediculosis, so it can be concluded that children in several orphanages are 100% positive for Pediculosis infection.

Abstract

People have a lifestyle that tends to involve consuming junk food. Fried food is popular among the public because it is fast to serve and easy to obtain. However, the public is less aware of the safety level of fried food sold on the roadside, including fried food sellers' repeated use of cooking oil. Fried food sellers generally operate on the side of the road, where it is highly likely that lead metal (Pb) from dust particles and fumes from passing vehicles will settle in the frying pans and finished fritters. This research aims to determine the levels of Pb in cooking oil repeatedly used by fried food traders around the Muhammadiyah Makassar Health Polytechnic campus. The study was conducted as a laboratory experiment by collecting 10 samples of cooking oil repeatedly used by fried food traders. Based on the results of qualitative tests using the color reaction test method with 10% K2CrO4, 3 samples tested positive while 7 samples tested negative. Subsequently, a quantitative test was conducted by analyzing the Pb levels using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry method. The levels obtained were 0.1317 mg/kg for sample B, 0.2163 mg/kg for sample H, and 0.1589 mg/kg. The maximum allowable limit for lead (Pb) contamination, as stipulated in the Regulation of the Head of BPOM RI No. HK.00.06.1.52.4011 of 2009, is 0.1 mg/kg. Therefore, it can be concluded that cooking oil for frying on the roadside around the Muhammadiyah Makassar Health Polytechnic campus, when repeatedly used, can lead to increased levels of lead (Pb), as evidenced by 3 samples exceeding the maximum allowable limit.

Abstract

Blood glucose is a sugar in the blood that is formed from carbohydrates and then stored in the form of glycogen in the liver and skeletal muscles. Chemically, glucose content examination using EDTA plasma is rarely used. The difference between plasma and serum occurs because serum does not form fibrinogen and some other coagulation factors, whereas plasma still has all the proteins and anticoagulant particles that can affect the examination. This study aims to determine the picture of blood glucose levels using serum and EDTA plasma samples. This study was conducted through laboratory observation which aims to determine the picture of blood glucose levels using serum and EDTA plasma samples. The number of samples used was 10 blood which was then separated between serum and plasma samples. The objects in this study were serum and EDTA plasma using the GOD PAP method. The results of this study were that the average level of blood glucose examination when using serum samples was 89.7 mg / dL, while using EDTA plasma samples 103 mg / dL. So it can be concluded that the average blood glucose level in EDTA plasma is higher than serum

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of Big Five Personality traits and school climate on altruistic attitudes among junior high school students in Medan. Altruism, defined as selfless kindness, is crucial during adolescence, a transitional period marked by various changes. While foreign cultures and individualistic mindsets may hinder altruistic attitudes, teaching altruism from an early age is essential. The study aims to examine the impact of Big Five Personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism) and school climate on altruistic attitudes. The research involves 728 students from three schools and utilizes scales for personality, school climate, and altruism. The results indicate that school climate significantly predicts altruism, contributing 32%, while Big Five Personality traits contribute 12%. Openness, agreeableness and neuroticism personality types, along with safety and academic dimensions of school climate, play a significant role. Although the joint influence is limited (13.2%), school climate emerges as a more dominant factor in shaping altruistic attitudes among junior high school students. The findings emphasize the importance of fostering a positive school climate to enhance altruistic behaviors.
