Abstract

`Introduction : Tuberculosis (TB) is a communicable disease that remains a public health concern in Indonesia, including in Bengkulu City. TB transmission can be influenced by the physical conditions of the home environment. This study aimed to describe the physical housing conditions in tuberculosis cases within the working area of the Bentiring Public Health Center, Bengkulu City . Method : The research employed a descriptive method with an observational approach. The sample consisted of 5 homes of TB patients selected purposively. Data were collected through direct measurements and observations of variables such as ventilation area, humidity, temperature, lighting, wall conditions, floor conditions, and occupancy density. Results : The results showed that most houses had ventilation (60%), humidity (60%), temperature (60%), lighting (80%), and occupancy density (60%) that did not meet health standards. Meanwhile, all houses (100%) had adequate wall and floor conditions. These findings indicate that although some physical components of the house met the standards, several environmental factors still contribute to a higher risk of TB transmission. Therefore, improving ventilation, lighting, and reducing occupancy density is essential as a preventive effort to reduce TB spread in the household environment Keywords: Hygiene, Sanitation, Canteen, School

Abstract

Background: Used cooking oil is defined as cooking oil that has been used for frying more than three times. Consuming used cooking oil poses serious health risks because it can cause several diseases and its waste can damage the environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of foam height, pH, and organoleptic tests on solid soap made from used cooking oil with calamansi orange peel essential oil. Methods: This study was quasi-experimental using one liter of used cooking oil as a sample. Analysis was carried out univariately. Results: Based on the research results, the color, aroma, and shape of solid soap made from used cooking oil passed the organoleptic test and met the requirements of SNI 06 3532 1994. The average pH test results showed a pH value of 9, which met the SNI 06 3532 1994 standard. The results of the test on the foam height of solid soap from used cooking oil showed an average foam height of 5.91, which did not meet the SNI 06 3532 1994 standard. Conclusions: The results of this study aim to provide information to the public about the method of processing unused used cooking oil into more useful materials and increase economic value
