Abstract

Most orange peels are not utilized and become useless waste that is thrown away. Orange peels contain many nutrients and compounds, such as flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, and essential oils, which are secondary metabolites that act as antibacterial agents. This study intends to investigate the antibacterial activity of sweet orange peel tea against isolated Enterobacteriaceae from a random water depot sample around Universitas Prima Indonesia. This experiment used disc diffusion for antibacterial assay. Meanwhile, the sweet orange peel was brewed using two different methods, including infusion and decoction, in two different masses (3 grams and 5 grams). These sweet orange peel tea formulations were compared to standard (chloramphenicol) and control (distilled water). Enterobacteriaceae was isolated and identified from a random water depot sample around Universitas Prima Indonesia, which included colony identification in EMB agar and MacConkey agar, gram staining, and biochemical test. This study showed that a random water depot sample contaminated by Enterobacteriaceae had properties similar to Citrobacter sp. Sweet orange tea formulation inhibited this isolated Enterobacteriaceae growth (P-Value: 0.010). Antibacterial activity was observed in 3-gram infusion, 5-gram infusion, and 5-gram decoction. However, the antibacterial activity was not better than the standard (chloramphenicol). Overall, it can be concluded that the sweet orange peel tea as infusion or decoction has weak antibacterial activity against Enterobacteriaceae bacteria isolated from water depots, which had some properties similar to Citrobacter sp.

Abstract

The tobacco industry is a significant obstacle in the effort to control smoking behavior, especially since they are allowed to promote their products to the public, including students. To address this issue, the Ministry of Health developed a smoke-free zone that may be implemented in universities to reduce smoking rates among adolescents. To know the effectiveness of implementing a smoke-free campus policy on smoking behavior control at Universitas Prima Indonesia by assessing aspects of student knowledge and compliance levels. This research is a descriptive quantitative study with a cross-sectional design and uses purposive sampling techniques with the criteria of active smoker students, 74 people in the medical study program of the Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry, and Health Sciences at Universitas Prima Indonesia. Data was obtained in February-April by distributing questionnaires directly to student smokers. The results showed that smoking behavior control among students increased in 50 (67.6%) out of 74 respondents. This is supported by the relationship between the level of knowledge and students' attitudes toward smoking behavior control in the smoke-free campus area, as indicated by a p-value<0.05 (0.005<0.05 and 0.001<0.05). This study found that students’ knowledge and attitudes towards smoke-free campus areas are important aspects influencing the effectiveness of the smoke-free campus policy in controlling smoking behavior.

Abstract

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major nosocomial pathogen that is resistant to penicillin-class antibiotics and poses a serious threat to healthcare facilities. Its global prevalence reached 30% in 2020, while in Indonesia it ranges from 0.3% to 52%, with the highest rate reported in Jakarta. Objective: To compare the incidence and risk factors of MRSA among patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and general wards (non-ICU) at RSUP Haji Adam Malik Medan, during 2022–202. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on 569 patients in ICU and non-ICU wards with culture examinations performed from January 2022 to December 2023. Bivariate analysis was conducted for nine independent variables, followed by multivariate logistic regression for variables with p-values < 0.25. Results: From 18,121 culture examinations, 569 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were identified. MRSA incidence was higher in non-ICU wards (246 of 441 isolates; 55.7%) than in the ICU (63 of 128 isolates; 49.2%). Statistically significant risk factors differed between the two groups: in ICU patients, only diabetes mellitus (OR 2.50; p = 0.017) was significant; while in non-ICU patients, chronic kidney disease (OR 0.644; p = 0.037) and a history of prior antibiotic use (OR 3.037; p = 0.011) were significant factors. Additionally, 4.21% of all isolates were confirmed as VRSA. Conclusion: MRSA incidence was higher among patients in non-ICU wards. The main risk factors differed between units: diabetes mellitus was prominent among ICU patients, whereas chronic kidney disease and previous antibiotic use played a role among non-ICU patients. These differences highlight the need for infection prevention and control strategies tailored to the specific risk profiles of each care unit.

Abstract

Lemon pepper does not only have a unique taste but also has some active compounds, which has anti-inflammatory activity. This study intended to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of lemon pepper nanoemulsion on carrageenan-induced Wistar rats. This experimental study used Twenty-five male Wistar rats that were grouped into five different groups, including control, standard, lemon pepper nanoemulsion dose of 25, 50, and 75 mg/ kgBW. Initially, all rats received air injection in the back area for 5 days to form an air pouch. After that, all rats were injected with 1% carrageenan solution, and received treatment based on the groups for 48 hours via oral route. Then, it counted the number of white blood cells by Giemsa Stain that was expressed as a number of cells per High Power Field (HPF). The increasing of Lemon pepper nanoemulsion dose significantly decreased the number of leucocytes in the carrageenan aspiration after 48 hours of treatment (P-Value < 0.001). The lowest number of leucocytes was found in the Lemon Pepper Nanoemulsion dose of 75 mg/kgBW (2.40 leukocytes per HPF). Hence, it can be deducted that the lemon pepper nanoemulsion has an anti-inflammatory effect, especially at a dose of 50-75 mg/kgBW.
