Abstract

Pineapple is one of the traditional plants that may be used as an alternative treatment to reduce pathogenic microbes. Its content is rich in chlorine, iodine, phenol and the enzyme bromelain which functions to stop microbial growth. This research aims to determine the potential of pineapple peel extract (Ananas comosus) as antimicrobe agents. This research uses a literature review study method, namely by using research articles obtained through a literature search process related to the potential use of pineapple peel extract on microbe from 2015 to 2025. Pineapple peel extract contains the main compounds, namely flavonoids, polyphenols, bromelain and saponins. This content causes pineapple skin extract (Ananas comosus) to have an effect on microbes.

Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a disorder caused by microorganisms that multiply in the urinary tract, which is normally sterile from bacteria. Risk factors for UTI include age, gender, medical procedures such as catheterization, hygiene, and duration of catheter use. Catheter-related UTI is the most common type of nosocomial infection, with a prevalence of up to 80% in patients who use catheters. The main cause of UTI is gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (48.44%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae. In women, the risk is higher because the urethra is shorter and closer to the anus. UTI is divided into lower and upper urinary tract infections, where symptoms vary from pain during urination to serious complications such as pyelonephritis and urosepsis. The pathophysiology of UTI often involves the colonization of microorganisms on the catheter or urinary tract. The risk of infection increases with the duration of catheter placement, reaching 5–10% per day. Diagnosis of UTI involves history taking, physical examination, and urine culture, although modern methods such as flow cytometry are increasingly used for efficiency. Prevention involves personal hygiene, aseptic technique during catheter insertion, and prophylactic antibiotic use in selected cases. Treatment of UTI includes empiric antibiotics such as trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, fluoroquinolones, or nitrofurantoin, depending on the severity and causal pathogen. Appropriate preventive and treatment approaches can reduce the incidence of UTI, improve patient quality of life, and decrease the rate of complications.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the world’s most biodiverse countries and possesses a vast potential of medicinal plants as natural therapeutic resources. Many medicinal plants traditionally used by local communities are known to contain secondary metabolites with antioxidant properties. Antioxidants play an essential role in preventing oxidative stress associated with degenerative and infectious diseases. This article aims to review the potential of secondary metabolite compounds from Indonesian medicinal plants as antioxidant agents based on previous studies. This study was conducted using a literature review method by analyzing relevant national and international scientific publications. The results indicate that various medicinal plants, including sweet potato leaves, green tea, roselle, celery, and Peperomia pellucida, contain polyphenolic compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and phenols, as well as other secondary metabolites including alkaloids, saponins, terpenoids, quinones, coumarins, and anthocyanins. These compounds exhibit antioxidant activity through free radical scavenging, hydrogen atom donation, and inhibition of lipid peroxidation processes. In conclusion, Indonesian medicinal plants demonstrate significant potential as natural sources of antioxidants and offer promising prospects for further development in pharmaceutical and health applications, particularly as raw materials for phytopharmaceutical products and supportive therapies.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health concern, with Aedes aegypti serving as the primary vector. The continuous use of synthetic insecticides has led to resistance development and environmental concerns, highlighting the need for safer and sustainable alternatives. This review aims to evaluate the ovicidal potential of selected plant extracts against Aedes aegypti as an early-stage vector control strategy. A literature review was conducted using relevant national and international publications focusing on plant-based ovicides. The findings indicate that extracts from Piper nigrum L., Ocimum basilicum, Syzygium myrtifolium Walp., Tithonia diversifolia, Acorus calamus L., Solanum lycopersicum, and Euphorbia hirta L. effectively reduce egg hatchability of Aedes aegypti. The ovicidal activity is associated with secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, terpenoids, polyphenols, and essential oils, which disrupt egg membranes and inhibit embryonic development in a concentration-dependent manner. These findings suggest that plant extracts possess promising potential as natural ovicides and may serve as a basis for further pharmaceutical development and formulation in sustainable dengue vector control.

Abstract

precision medicine. However, the static and hereditary nature of genomic data poses significant privacy risks for individuals and their families. This article aims to conduct a systematic literature review of various modern cryptographic protocols designed to protect genomic data. The research method utilizes a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, analyzing relevant literature from 2018 to 2026. The findings indicate that protocols such as Homomorphic Encryption (HE) and Secure Multi-party Computation (SMPC) offer robust protection but face challenges regarding computational efficiency and bandwidth. Differential Privacy (DP) provides an efficient alternative but carries risks of reduced data accuracy. In conclusion, securing genomic data requires hybrid models that integrate algorithmic efficiency with long-term resilience, particularly against quantum computing threats. Aligning these technologies with Indonesia's Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP) is crucial for building a secure and credible national health data ecosystem.
