Abstract

Vaccines are the main component in the implementation of immunization, to achieve the maximum goal of immunization, it is necessary to support the management and availability of vaccines in sufficient quantities, quality and on time. All vaccines are biological products that range from easily damaged funds that require special handling in its management, especially storage. Vaccine storage in health service units such as the Public Health Center must be considered carefully. This study aims to determine the profile of vaccine storage at the Oepoi Public Health Center and Kupang City Public Health Center, which were assessed from 2 assessment categories, namely the completeness of the category including the availability of storage temperature monitoring and vaccine condition categories. The type of research used in this study is descriptive research. How to collect data by direct observation and using observation sheets, then the data is processed and then narrated. From the results of this study it was found that the completeness of the facilities included the availability of monitoring of storage temperature and condition of the vaccine at the Oepoi Public Health Center and Kupang City Public Health Center were available or available except in the Oepoi Public Health Center there was no freeze tag or freeze watch and no generator. And the condition of the vaccine at the Kupang City Public Health Center and the Oepoi Public Health Center are all available or available. So the overall profile of vaccine storage at the Oepoi Public Health Center and Kupang City Public Health Center is well available

Abstract

The Helong people in Kupang Regency, NTT Province, have experienced being exposed to cough and tuberculosis (TB). Therefore, it is believed that this community has also long since developed their local knowledge and traditional ways to prevent and treat the disease. In general, this study aims to analyze and find the concept of the Helong Tribe community and ethnomedical practices for the prevention and treatment of cough and tuberculosis (TB). This research is a medical anthropology research using a qualitative research method with an ethnographic approach, which is supported by laboratory research and literature studies. Field research was carried out on Semau Island, NTT Province, involving traditional medicine. The results of the research conducted in the form of interviews with traditional medicine practitioners in the Helong tribe obtained as many as 31 plants used in treatment, and there were 3 plants used to treat cough, including hemorrhagic cough/tuberculosis, namely plants: white banyan (Ficus benjamina L), mesocarp palm fruit (Borassus flabellifer L.) and white flower (Clerodendrum costatum R.Br). The three plants that are suspected to have the ability to treat cough and cough up blood carried out preliminary tests of antibacterial activity against bacteria that generally cause stones, namely Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The results obtained for ethanol extract of white banyan leaves (Ficus benjamina L) with a concentration of 25% b/v with a diameter of 16.53 mm, 50% b/v with a diameter of 16.33 mm, and 75% b/v with a diameter of 16.56 mm. Mesocarp ethanol extract of palm fruit (Borassus flabellifer L.) At a concentration of 25% b/v with an inhibitory zone diameter of 11.60 mm, a concentration of 50% b/v with an inhibitory zone diameter of 12.30 mm, a concentration of 75% b/v with an inhibitory zone diameter of 13.40 mm, for white flowers (Clerodendrum costatum R.Br) at a concentration of 25%b/v with an inhibitory zone diameter of 9.41 mm, a concentration of 50% b/v of 10.36 mm and a concentration of 75% b/v of 11.24 mm. This means that the three plants have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Furthermore, for the antibacterial activity test against Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria for white banyan plants (Ficus benjamina L.), mesocarp of palm fruit (Borassus flabellifer L.), and white flowers (Clerodendrum costatum R.Br) by the MODS (Microscopically Observed Drug Susceptibility) method, it was obtained that the three plants at concentrations of 250 ppm, 500 ppm, and 1000 ppm were only seen to have the growth of Micobacterium tuberculosis bacteria in the second week. Passive control with INH observation until week IV did not see any bacterial growth, while for negative control in the first week, the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria was seen. It can be concluded that a concentration greater than 1000 ppm is needed for the three plants to inhibit the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria.
