Abstract

The technique of identifying Escherichia coli O157: H7 bacteria in the feces of diarrhea sufferers using a molecular method, namely PCR has been proven to be more sensitive and shows fast results but is expensive when compared to conventional methods. Therefore, it can be recommended and used by health workers in early detection so that it will help make the diagnosis faster and determine treatment more effectively. The results of this seminar aim to make it easier for laboratory staff to identify the Escherichia coli O157: H7 bacteria in diarrhea sufferers.

Abstract

Seledri (Apium graveolens linn) mengandung flavonoid, fitosterol, vitamin K dan apigenin. Apigenin memiliki sifat sebagai vasodilator, yang memperlebar pembuluh darah dengan cara menghambat kontraksi yang disebabkan oleh pelepasan kalsium, mirip dengan mekanisme kerja antagonis kalsium. Antagonis kalsium bekerja dengan menurunkan tekanan darah melalui pemblokiran masuknya kalsium ke dalam aliran darah, mekanisme tersebut mirip dengan EDTA dan berpotensi sebagai antikoagulan yang menghambat agregasi trombosit. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi potensi daun seledri sebagai pengganti EDTA pada pemeriksaan jumlah trombosit. Metode yang digunakan adalah eksperimen, dengan Modifikasi pembuatan larutan seledri pada konsentrasi 30% dan 40%. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa larutan seledri 40% memberikan hasil hitung trombosit sebesar 196.000 sel/ul dan memiliki efek yang sama dengan antikoagulan EDTA sebagai kontrol. Analisis statistik menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan signifikan antara seledri dan dengan konsentrasi 40% dengan EDTA, dan hal terbukti lebih efektif sebagai alternatif pengganti EDTA dalam pemeriksaan jumlah trombosit.

Abstract

Food stalls play a role in helping fulfil daily needs by offering convenient and fast services, so people like to eat food at food stalls. If contaminated cutlery is used, those who use it may be infected with disease-causing microbes. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the presence of Coliform bacteria in water both before and after being used to clean food utensils in food stalls around the Medistra Institute of Health Lubuk Pakam. Methods: The method used is quantitative, as well as experimental to test water quality with applicable quality standards and describe the results of research based on literature review. Results: Of the 4 food stalls around the Medistra Institute of Health, it shows that there are 3 food stalls in the category of not meeting health requirements and 1 other food stall in the category of meeting health requirements based on the maximum number of total coliforms for piped and non-piped water 10/100 and 50/100 ml of water samples respectively in accordance with Permenkes No. 416/Per/Menkes/IX/1990. The quality of washing water (clean water) used in food stalls around the Medistra Institute of Health based on the results of laboratory tests of total Coliform, from four food stalls around the Medistra Institute of Health, 3 food stalls in the category of not meeting health requirements and 1 other food stall in the category of meeting the requirements according to Permenkes No. 416/Per/Menkes/IX/1990, concerning clean water quality for piped and non-piped water with numbers 10/100 ml and 50/100 ml of water samples.

Abstract

Background: This study counts the number of leukocytes using a manual method. The natural materials used are lime, lemon, and tamarind, which contain glacial acid and citric acid with a pH below 2.0. These acids can lyse blood cells, except for leukocytes (white blood cells). Objective: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of varying concentrations of starfruit (Averrhoa bilimbi) on the number of leukocytes (white blood cells). Method: This research employs an experimental method. The number of leukocytes is counted from the juice of starfruit at concentrations of 5% and 10%. The objective is to find the most effective concentration compared to the standard Turk solution as a control. Conclusion: The data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA. The average number of leukocytes in the control group was 6,500, in the 10% concentration was 6,450, and in the 5% concentration was 4,500. The results of statistical tests and hypotheses showed a significance value of 0.000, which is less than ? (alpha) (0.05), thus the null hypothesis is rejected and there is a significant difference. The 10% concentration proved to be the most effective in replacing glacial acetic acid in the Turk solution.
