Abstract

Pityriasis versicolor is a disease caused by Malassezia furfur. One of the plants that can potentially act as antifungal is cacao leaves (Theobroma cacao L.), which contain several secondary metabolite compounds, including alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, quinones, terpenoids, and saponins. This study aims to determine the phytochemical analysis and the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Fungicidal Concentration (MFC) of cacao leaves ethanolic extract against M. furfur. Extracts were obtained by maceration using 70% ethanol and phytochemicals analysis using Herborne’s method. Furthermore, the extracts were made into concentrations’ variations of 3.125%; 6.25%; 12.5%; 25%; 50%; and 100% for testing antifungal activity, with 10% DMSO as negative control and 2% Ketoconazole and Itraconazole as positive controls. MIC was performed with liquid macrodilution method, and MFC was performed with spread method. The results of phytochemical analysis showed that the extract contained alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, tannins, quinones, terpenoids and saponins. MIC value was obtained at concentration of 50% and MFC value was obtained at 100%. Cacao leaves ethanolic extract with concentration of 50% can inhibit M. furfur’s growth and with 100% can eliminate M. furfur.

Abstract

Anemia is a condition in which the body experiences a lack of hemoglobin levels in the blood. In Indonesia, those who experience anemia the most are teenagers with a prevalence of 30-55%, meanwhile the proportion of anemia in women is higher than in men with a prevalence of 23.9%. Anemia in teenagers increases pregnant women's risk of chronic energy deficiency, stunting, low birth weight and other health problems. Body mass index (BMI) as an indicator of nutritional status and duration of menstruation is one of the factors causing anemia in adolescent girls, so this research aims to determine the relationship between BMI and duration of menstruation on hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls. Method: The research used a quasi-experimental design using the Nonequivalent Control Group Design model by selecting 60 young women who met the inclusion criteria as a sample. Results: Pearson correlation analysis shows that BMI is not correlated with hemoglobin levels with a p-value of 0.717, while the length of menstruation is correlated with hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls with the strength of the relationship being sufficient with an r-0.331 p-value of 0.010, which means that the longer the adolescent girls menstruate, the longer they menstruate. the lower the hemoglobin level.

Abstract

This community service program was conducted at the Barokah Hydroponic Group in Kenali Asam Atas Subdistrict, Jambi City, which operates an active hydroponic system but has not yet optimally utilized it as educational tourism or a source of value-added product development. The main challenges faced by the partner included the absence of durable processed vegetable products and the lack of standardized educational tourism management. This program aimed to strengthen hydroponic educational tourism and develop innovative vegetable-based processed products in the form of vegetable powder (simplisia) to enhance community capacity and economic potential. The implementation methods included preparation, socialization, training, application of simple technology, mentoring, and evaluation. Activities focused on producing vegetable powder from Brazilian spinach and common spinach, developing Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for educational tourism, and providing initial mentoring for educational tourism implementation. The results indicated an improvement in partners’ knowledge and skills, as reflected by an increase in average pre-test scores from 60% to 82% in the post-test. In addition, the partners successfully produced value-added products and established structured guidelines for managing educational tourism activities. This program is important as a sustainable model for strengthening hydroponic-based educational tourism and local product innovation
