Abstract

Blood transfusions are an important part of medicine for patient recovery. Therefore, the transfused blood must be free from viruses, bacteria, and even parasites that can be transmitted through blood transfusions. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV/AIDS), Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis are among the illnesses that can be transferred through blood transfusions. This research aims to determine screening parameters for transfusion-transmitted infection using the rapid diagnostic test method. This type of research is experimental with a cross-sectional design. The samples used were ten blood samples, taken intravenously and then centrifuged at a speed of 1300 rpm for 4 minutes. After that, screening is carried out with a rapid diagnostic test. The screening results of the ten blood samples examined were valid and negative or non-reactive for HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis. These results indicate that the blood samples tested can be categorized as blood samples that passed the screening test or the blood examination test for four parameters of transfusion-transmitted infection.

Abstract

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a crucial target in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to its significant role in tumor cell proliferation and survival. This study investigates the potential of marine-derived compounds from soft coral (Rhytisma sp.) as EGFR inhibitors through molecular docking and pharmacokinetic predictions. Eight compounds identified via GC-MS were docked against the EGFR tyrosine kinase domain (PDB ID: 2ITY) using AutoDock Vina, with Gefitinib serving as the reference drug. The top-performing compounds exhibited binding affinities ranging from –7.0 to –7.4 kcal/mol, closely aligning with Gefitinib's affinity of –7.6 kcal/mol. Notably, 4,12,12-trimethyl-9-methylidene-5-oxatricyclo[8.2.0.0⁴,⁶]dodecane demonstrated the strongest interactions, involving critical residues such as MET793 and LYS745. Pharmacokinetic profiling conducted with SwissADME and pkCSM confirmed favorable drug-likeness and high absorption potential. Toxicity analysis using ProTox-3.0 indicated low toxicity (Class IV) and no predicted hepatotoxicity, carcinogenicity, or mutagenicity. These findings suggest that phytocompounds derived from Rhytisma sp., particularly terpenoid-based structures, present a promising scaffold for the development of EGFR-targeted anticancer drugs.
