Abstract

Small Scale Gold Mining uses mercury to extract gold. Mercury exposure to children is associated with the risk of various health problems that can lead to stunting. This review was prepared with the aim of knowing the impact of mercury exposure on children living in the Small Scale Gold Mining area. The method used in the preparation of this narrative review is searching for information via the internet using google. Tracing results from various studies and electronic books stated that children living in ASGM areas are very vulnerable to mercury exposure either by inhalation by inhaling mercury vapor or ingestion by consuming food or drinks containing mercury. In addition, they are also very at risk of health problems such as malnutrition and infectious diseases, which are risk factors for stunting. Various risk factors that threaten the health of children living in ASGM areas can lead to stunting. However, there is still little research linking mercury exposure to stunting.

Abstract

Liver damage parameters can be identified from changes in the activity of blood enzymes by observing substances in the blood produced by liver cells, such as Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT). In SGOT examinations, delays in the examination can affect the results. As in Good Laboratory Practice, SGOT activity will decrease by 10% in storage for >3 days at 4 °C. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of delay time on Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) examinations in serum samples stored at 2-8 °C. This study was conducted using an experimental method on 17 randomly selected samples. The SGOT examination was carried out using the IFCC (International Federation of Clinical Chemistry) method using a BTS 350 photometer. The average results of the Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) examination in serum with variations of 0 days (immediately), 3 days, and 7 days were 18.1 U/L, 17.7 U/L, and 17.1 U/L, respectively. Based on the one-way ANOVA test, the significance value was 0.547 (>0.05). This indicates that there is no effect of delay time on the results of the SGOT examination.
