Abstract

Aedes aegypti is the vector of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) disease. Containers are breeding places for DHF vector and the most commonly found larvae in the bath water containers. The presence of Aedes aegypti larvae in a container could be affected by the type of water source besides the container’s color, material, location, lid existence and the container’s drain frequency. This study was conducted to determine the associate of water source type with larvae presence and the additional factors. This study used observational analytic with case control design. The case group consisted of households using well water and the control group consisted of households using tap water with a sample size of 130 households for each group. The sample was collected by proportional random sampling in five villages. The data was analyzed using a regression logistic test. The significant variables associated with the presence of larvae were the water source type (OR=1.923), container’s color (OR=2.345), container’s location (OR=2.241), container’s lid existence (OR=2.122) and the container’s drain frequency (OR=2.260). This study did not consider the significant association of the container’s material. The dominant variable associated with the presence of larvae was the container’s drain frequency which was controlled by the water source type, container’s color and container’s location.

Abstract

In the present study antioxidant and antioxidant activity of some tropical fruits was evaluated. Antioxidants are compounds or molecules that can scavenging and prevent free radicals and reactive oxygen species that can caused a cell damage. Fruit was known as a source of antioxidant. South Kalimantan Indonesia, has a variety of fruit such as mentega, nangka, timun suri and kuranji. Study for evaluating the antioxidant levels and activity of those fruit were never been investigated. Thus, our study aim to measure the antioxidant levels and antioxidant activtity of those selected fruits. Ascorbic acid, lycopene, b-carotene levels and antioxidant activtity of four selected tropical fruits was evaluated using spectrophotometer. The result of this studied suggest that the four selected tropical fruits is potential antioxidant because it contained ascorbic acid, b-carotene, lycopene and had effect of scavenging radical hydroxyl, hydrogen peroxide and chellating ferrous iron.

Abstract

The objectives of this study were to determine the involvement of Oxidative Stress (OS) in the pathogenesis of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) through the analysis of oxidative stress Index (OSI). The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activity, and OSI were measured in 61 child dengue patients and (aged 6 months–18 years) with three different stages of DHF, i.e stage I, II, and III. The results show that the levels of MDA, SOD and CAT activity, and OSI significantly different between the group. The all parameters that investigated in this present study seems higher MDA level and OSI in the higher grade of DHF, except for SOD and CAT activity. From this result, it can be concluded that oxidative stress pathways might be involved in the pathomechanism of DHF and OSI might be used as a biomarker for OS and the severity in DHF patients.

Abstract

Mandiangin is one of the tropical rainforests in South Kalimantan, with highly diverse plants used for health and medicinal purposes. To date, scientific evidence on these plants' content and bioactivities remain lacking for further medical applications. In this perspective, this study aimed to determine the phytochemical contents of six selected plants, which include the Bilaran Kusan (Passiflora foetida), Sembilakan (Caesalpinia sp), Bamban Batu (Donax cenniformis), Kilayu (Aglaia sp), Ulur-Ulur (Tetrastigma sp), and Mali-Mali (Leea indica) from the Mandiangin rainforest, in addition to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Results revealed that the Leea indica extracts exhibited the highest flavonoid content (70.892 ± 0.34 mg/ml QE), while the highest tannin (2.101 ± 0.02 mg/ml GAE) and alkaloid contents (25.30 ± 0.71 %) were recorded for the Aglaia sp species. Meanwhile, Passiflora foetida showed the highest saponin content at (31.78 ± 2.97 %). Based on the study findings, the extracts of all six plants from the Mandiangin rainforest possessed medically valuable phytochemical constituents, as seen from their appreciable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Of all these plants, P. foetida and L. indica demonstrated the highest antioxidant activity, whereas the highest anti-inflammatory activity was noted for the P. foetida, Aglaia- and Caesalpinia species.
