Abstract

The condition of Kupang City has low rainfall, low rainy days and includes dry areas, but it turns out that Kupang City had always the highest incidence rate in Nusa Tenggara Timur Province and exceed the national average. This study will analyze the relationship of container characteristic to the incidence of DHF in Kupang City. This study was an observational analytic study with a case control design. The study conducted in 25 villages with total sample 500 people of DHF patients and non DHF patients in Kupang City. The research variables are number of container, water height, water volume, water pH, container type, container location, container material, container lid, and container color which were collected by doing direct observation and measuring the object of study. The collected data was processed and analyzed statistically using Independent T test and Chi Square test. The container conditions related to the incidence of DHF were the amount of container, water pH, and type of container. Whereas the container conditions that were not related to the incidence of DHF are water level, water volume, container location, container material, container cover and container color.

Abstract

Arang aktif merupakan senyawa arang yang tidak memiliki struktur kristal, yang dapat dihasilkan dari bahan yang mengandung arang atau dari arang yang diperlakukan dengan cara khusus untuk mendapatkan permukaan yang lebih luas. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah Untuk menghitung penyerapan Iodium pada aktivasi kimia Calsium klorida (CaCl₂) dengan konsentrasi 1N, 2N, dan 3N.Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen One “shot case-study”. Variabel penelitian yaitu variabel bebas arang aktif dengan aktivasi kimia dengan 1N, 2N dan 3N, variabel terikat yaitu penyerapan Iodium Hasil penelitian penyerapan Iodium pada aktivasi kimia (CaCl₂) dengan konsentrasi 1N yaitu diperoleh 634,5 mg/g, 2N yaitu diperoleh 708,5 mg/g, dan 3N yaitu diperoleh 782,6 mg/g. Dari hasil pemeriksaan arang aktif dapat diketahui bahwa hasil uji daya serap Iodium pada arang aktif kulit pisang kepok, pada aktivasi kimia 1N,2N dan 3N ada perbedaan daya serapnya. Daya serap Iodim pada 1 N dan 2N tidak memenuhi syarat karena masi dibawah ≤ 750 mg/g, sedangkan 3N sudah memenuhi syarat karena ≥ 750 mg/g menurut standar SNI 06-3730-1995 tentang syarat mutu dan pengujian arang aktif.Disimpulkan bahwa jika penyerapan Iodium tinggi makanya arang aktif tersebut bisa dimanfaat untuk menghilangkan polutan pada air limbah. Disarankan agar Perlu dilakukan kajian lebih mendalam terhadap kualitas arang aktif kulit pisang kepok dengan memvariasikan jenis activator sehingga didapatkan arang aktif yang memiliki kualitas yang baik sebagai bahan penyerap yang ramah lingkungan dimasa mendatang.

Abstract

School-age is a period of vulnerability to diseases such as diarrhea, intestinal worms, caries, and anemia. This research is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional research design with a sample of 937 elementary school students spread throughout the city of Kupang. The data analysis technique used the Chi-square test to determine the relationship between the variables studied with significant values with the help of the SPSS program. The incidence of environmental-based disease experienced by elementary school students is diarrhea and the lowest is malaria. The personal hygiene variable shows a good category, and the results of statistical tests show no relationship between personal hygiene and the incidence of environmental-based diseases. The results also show a relationship between the consumption of healthy food and the incidence of environmental-based diseases. The variable of using healthy latrines is in a good category. There is a relationship between the use of clean and healthy latrines with the incidence of environmental-based diseases. The variable presence of mosquito larvae showed free of larvae. The waste disposal variable shows that the highest level of waste disposal in the respondent's house indicates the category is not good. Hygiene variables, the presence of larvae, and waste disposal have no relationship with the incidence of environmental-based diseases in elementary school children, while the variables of healthy food consumption habits and use of latrines have a relationship with the incidence of environmental diseases. Disease-based primary school children.

Abstract

Pulmonary TB is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This disease is a contagious disease and spreads faster in men 1,4 times greater than women. The aim is to reveal the problem of risk factors that influence pulmonary TB disease, namely smokers and alcoholics. The method is that this article was written by reading a number of literature discussing pulmonary TB in relation to smoking and drinking behavior. Smokers have a 40-60 percent higher chance of developing pulmonary TB than non-smokers. An unhealthy environment can trigger a wider spread of TB, especially from TB patients who smoke. Alcohol dependence of pulmonary TB patients with smear + in the pre-alcoholic stage can climb to the next stage. At an emergency stage alcoholism can cause the body's resistance to decrease because all control is lost, even alcohol drinkers will continue until they pass out so that the social interaction of the person concerned becomes bad due to dependence on alcohol. The conclusion is that smoking and drinking alcohol are risk factors for pulmonary TB patients. There needs to be a strong motivation so that we all reduce the habit of smoking and drinking alcohol.

Abstract

Salah satu penyakit berbasis lingkungan yang masih banyak dijumpai di negara-negara berkembang adalah penyakit diare. Diare juga dapat menyebabkan kematian. Keterbatasan sarana jamban di Kelurahan Manutapen Kota Kupang dapat menjadi salah satu penyebab tingginya kasus diare di daerah tersebut. Jenis penelitian ini adalah deskriptif dengan metode survei. Pengambilan sampel secara cross sectional. Data yang diambil adalah data primer dan sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebanyak 87,10% penderita diare berumur >5 tahun, jarak cubluk/resapan pada jamban penderita diare < 10 meter dari sumur 12,90%, kondisi lantai jamban pada rumah penderita diare yang tidak rapat sebanyak 74,20%, kondisi lubang masuknya kotoran/tinja pada jamban yang terbuka sebanyak 6,45%, ukuran panjang/lebar lantai jamban di rumah penderita diare yang < 1 meter sebanyak 67,74%, rumah jamban penderita diare yang tidak memiliki atap sebanyak 19,35%. Kesimpulan yang dapat diambil yaitu jarak cubluk terhadap sumber air bersih, kondisi lantai jamban, kondisi lubang masuknya kotoran, ukuran luas lantai dan kondisi rumah jamban yang tidak memenuhi syarat Kesehatan dapat menjadi faktor-faktor penyebab terjadinya penyakit diare.

Abstract

The emergence of resistance of Plasmodium that infect humans against malaria eradication Artemisinin add to the difficulty. Therefore it is necessary to search for new antimalarial drugs derived from natural or synthetic materials other than the vaccine have not been successful. The results of fractionation or isolation of the ethanol extract of bitter herbs (Andrographis paniculata Nees) and ethanol extracts obtained andrographolide compound which is the main active substance of bitter herbs belonging to the lactone. Test antimalarial activity of ethanol extract and andrographolide compounds against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro studies suggest that and rographolide compound said to have anti-malarial activity as compared to active ethanol extract with IC50 values of 0.220 μg/ml. Test the effect of andrographolide compounds bitter herbs (Andrographis paniculata Nees) on the development and morphology of the parasite stages of P. falciparum in vitro studies suggest that there are barriers to the development stage of the parasitic stage and schizont stage tropozoit be schizont stage into ring -stage parasites grow and cause an abnormal morphology. The conclusion of this study is that the antimalarial herb bitter (Andrographis paniculata Nees) especially andrographolide compound said to have anti-malarial activity as in vitro , causing developmental delays or obstacles stage parasites grow and cause an abnormal morphology. Therefore antimalarial bitter herbs in this compound andrographolide potentially be used as an antimalarial drug that is new blood skizontisidal.
