Abstract

Low public literacy regarding the correct application of the DAGUSIBU (Obtain, Use, Store, and Dispose) principles of drugs contributes to the persistently high prevalence of irrational drug use in Indonesia. This situation has the potential to lead to drug abuse, antibiotic resistance, and negative impacts on public health. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and rational drug use behavior of 10th-grade students at SMA Negeri 2 Palangka Raya regarding safe and responsible drug management. The methods used include interactive outreach through educational media, practical simulations, and evaluation using pre- and post-tests. The target group was 35 10th-grade students at SMA Negeri 2 Palangka Raya. The results showed an increase in student understanding with an average pre-test score of 6.9 to 7.6 on the post-test (maximum score of 8) regarding the DAGUSIBU principles, which were delivered directly through practice and active discussion. The conclusion of this activity is that the interactive DAGUSIBU outreach is effective in improving understanding of drug literacy and fostering more responsible drug management behaviors in students, which have a positive impact on reducing the risk of drug abuse and supporting individual and environmental health.

Abstract

The Kahayan River in Central Kalimantan is one of the waterways utilized for traditional gold mining that employs amalgamation techniques. The application of this method poses a significant risk of environmental pollution and degradation. This study was conducted to evaluate the capacity of bacteria to act as bioremediation agents for mercury (Hg) at different concentrations. The methodology involved inoculating sediment samples into Zobell 2216E medium, isolating and purifying bacterial colonies on Nutrient Agar (NA), followed by bacterial identification and assessment of mercury degradation using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The findings revealed that isolate 34 was able to remove 132.73 ppm of Hg from an initial concentration of 250 ppm (equivalent to a 53.09% reduction), whereas isolate 108 removed 139.68 ppm, corresponding to a 55.87% reduction.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to assess the adsorption capacity of activated carbon derived from meranti wood (Shore spp) for mercury (Hg) removal from liquid waste. To establish the relationship between concentration and absorbance, the method employed involves calibrating mercury concentration using calibration curves. Additionally, the effects of pH and exposure time on adsorption capacity were examined. The results indicate that activated carbon from meranti wood can significantly adsorb mercury, achieving an efficiency level of 97.610% at pH 3, with adsorption stability reached within 80 minutes at an adsorption rate of 94.30%. The conclusions drawn from this study suggest that activated carbon from meranti wood is a sustainable and effective solution for addressing mercury contamination in wastewater. It also highlights the importance of regulating pH and exposure time. This research contributes significantly to the development of environmentally friendly methods for water purification.
