Abstract

Background: Escherichia coli is one of the causes of foodborne illness. Conventional PCR is a PCR method that is carried out qualitatively followed by visualization on agar electrophoresis. Agarose gel electrophoresis is a technique that is often used in various fields of science to separate a mixture of DNA on agarose substrate. This method is used to perform qualitative analysis of DNA samples. In electrophoresis, there are factors that affect the movement of DNA molecules, one of which is voltage. In addition, the length of time of the electrophoresis process can also affect the effectiveness of the results and the rate of migration. When the electrophoresis process time is short, large DNA fragments still tend to stick. Purpose: Therefore, it is necessary to balance the voltage and time given to get good DNA banding results. Methods: The research unit that will be used is the result of amplification of Escherichia coli 16SrRNA gene DNA measuring 584 bp. The electrophoresis process was carried out with voltage variations of 50, 100, 150 volts and time variations of 30, 45, 60 minutes. Observation of electrophoresis results that have formed DNA bands will be measured the area of DNA bands using ImageJ application. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study concluded that: The optimum voltage in the electrophoresis process in obtaining good E.coli DNA bands is at a voltage of 150 volts. The optimum time in the electrophoresis process in obtaining good E.coli DNA bands is for 30 minutes.

Abstract

Background & Objective: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, often referred to as M. tuberculosis, is an infectious pathogen that is responsible for causing tuberculosis (TB), a prevalent condition that is a leading cause of death globally. The spread of tuberculosis bacteria that are resistant to certain medicines, such as isoniazid, is currently on the rise. Therefore, molecular testing, such as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), is needed to rapidly and reliably identify isoniazid-resistant tuberculosis germs. Method: The purpose of this study was to assess the analytical specificity of TaqMan Probe and SYBR Green qPCR techniques for the detection of isoniazid-resistant tuberculosis. This study was descriptive and quantitative. Analytical specificity was ascertained using MTB DNA with the S315G mutation spiked with E. coli DNA. A paired t-test was used to assess the primary data. Result: The results show that the analytical specificity values based on the significance of the paired t-test for the SYBR Green and TaqMan Probe methods were 0.398 and 0.790, respectively. Conclusion: Based on these results, it can be concluded that the analytical specificity of the TaqMan Probe qPCR method was 1.99 times greater than that of the SYBR Green method.

Abstract

Obesitas adalah penumpukan lemak yang abnormal atau berlebihan di jaringan adiposa, yang dapat menyebabkan berbagai masalah kesehatan termasuk hiperkolestrolemia. Peningkatan kadar asam lemak bebas di jaringan adiposa yang tebal dapat memicu produksi C-Reactive Protein (CRP) di dalam hati. Peningkatan CRP sering kali menjadi indikator adanya peradangan sistemik terkait obesitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kadar kolesterol total metode CHOD-PAP dan kadar CRP metode HS-CRP pada penderita obesitas. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif korelatif dengan desain cross-sectional. Populasi penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa Jurusan Teknologi Laboratorium Medis Poltekkes Kemenkes Bandung dengan IMT > 25. Sampel sebanyak 30 orang diambil dengan teknik quota sampling. Data dianalisis dengan uji Korelasi Pearson. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara kadar kolesterol total yang tinggi dengan peningkatan kadar CRP pada penderita obesitas. Dari 30 responden, 15 orang (50%) memiliki kadar kolesterol total normal dan 15 orang (50%) meningkat, sementara untuk kadar CRP, 14 orang (47%) normal dan 16 orang (53%) meningkat. Nilai koefisien korelasi antara Kolesterol Total dan CRP adalah 0.419, yang menunjukkan adanya hubungan sedang antara kadar kolesterol total dan kadar CRP pada penderita obesitas.

Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 is the causative agent of the disease known as COVID-19. COVID-19 is spreading very fast around the world. One of the immune responses that play a role in against SARS-CoV-2 infection is the production of antibodies, which is 3 weeks after infection. Where within 3 weeks after infection, antibodies will be produced against RBD and the S1 and S2 domains in glycoprotein S and nucleocapsid protein N. The ability of an antibody to inhibit viral infection is determined by its level or titer. This study aims to determine the description of antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination. This type of research is descriptive research. Measurement of antibody levels for SRBD SARS-CoV-2 was carried out using the CLIA method using the MAGLUMI tool. Of the 30 respondents, 23 people had received the third vaccine. The results of this study showed that the average level of SRBD antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in respondents with 2 doses of vaccine (1.063,786 BAU/mL) was higher than in respondents with 3 doses of vaccine (535.651 BAU/mL). Vaccine intervals of more than 6 months (908.338 BAU/mL) have higher antibody levels than respondents with vaccine intervals of 1-6 months (228.006 BAU/mL). The conclusion of this study is the highest antibody titers are produced >6 months after vaccination, antibody titers are still detectable after 12 months of vaccination, and for further research, it can be measured antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 from people who have got vaccination for a duration of 2 years or more.

Abstract

Drug abuse among teenagers has become a chronic issue in Indonesia, which is currently in a state of drug emergency. The misuse of narcotics, dangerous drugs, and other addictive substances can cause various negative impacts on users' lives, leading to mental and physical damage, as well as the destruction of social relationships, morals, careers, and finances. The problem of drug abuse among youth is not easy to solve, as it requires collaboration from multiple parties, including the government, police, community members, the media, families, schools, and the teenagers themselves. The main goal of this community service program was to provide students at SMK TI Pembangunan Campus III with a comprehensive understanding of narcotics and their effects on life. The program used a structured method that involved: Pre-test: To assess the students' initial understanding of drugs. Education and Socialization: To provide knowledge and awareness. Urine Screening: As a screening tool for drug use among students. Post-test: To evaluate the increase in understanding after the program. The program successfully increased students' understanding of drugs. This finding strongly suggests that the educational program was effective in achieving its goal. The improvement in understanding was reflected not only in the rise of average scores but also in the consistent improvement among almost every individual student who was measured. These positive results imply that the methods and curriculum used in the program are worth maintaining or even developing further.

Abstract

Diabetes melitus tipe 2 adalah kondisi meningkatnya kadar gulosa yang disebabkan oleh kesalahan fungsi insulin oleh sel beta pankreas. HbA1c digunakan sebagai penanda kontrol glikemik jangka panjang sementara CRP merupakan biomarker inflamasi yang digunakan sebagai biomarker inflamasi sistemik pada penderita diabetes melitus tipe 2. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui korelasi CRP dengan HbA1c pada penderita diabetes melitus tipe 2. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah analisis observasional dengan desain cross-sectional terhadap 30 pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2 di RSUD Al-Ihsan Baleendah. Kadar CRP diukur menggunakan metode Fluorescence Immunoassay (FIA) dan kadar HbA1c diperoleh melalui rekam medis pasien. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan rata-rata CRP sebesar 11,26 mg/L dan HbA1c sebesar 9,8%. Hasil uji korelasi Spearman menunjukan nilai signifikasi p = 0,002 dengan nilai koefisien korelasi r = 0,552 yang artinya terdapat korelasi positif yang signifikan antara kadar CRP dan HbA1c. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa peningkatan kadar CRP, sebagai indikator peradangan sistemik, berhubungan dengan buruknya kontrol glikemik pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2.
