Abstract

Background: If an alcohol-containing urine sample cannot be analyzed immediately or requires shipping, it should be stored at an appropriate temperature. Pre-analytic is a stage that needs serious attention where at this stage the risk of errors often occurs. Error in storage samples can affect the results of alcohol concentration, so a laboratory technician needs to understand urine sample storage to measure alcohol concentration. Aims: Knowing the best storage of urine temperature in measuring alcohol concentration. Methods: This study used a systematic literature review of urine samples to measure alcohol concentration. The results: The storage temperature on measured urine alcohol concentration was carried out from 1977 – 2023. It can be seen that in some studies regarding storage temperatures in urine using at least 5 temperatures: -20oC, 4oC, 6oC, 14oC, ±20oC. The temperature storage at 4oC can prevent the production of ethanol due to microorganism activity, it will maintain the stability of alcohol concentration in urine. Conclusions: A temperature of 4oC is highly recommended for measuring alcohol concentration in urine samples.

Abstract

Resistensi antibiotik menjadi masalah serius bagi kesehatan secara global akibat penggunaan antibiotik yang tidak tepat. Meskipun aturan pembelian antibiotik dengan resep dokter telah diberlakukan, tingkat kepatuhan masyarakat masih rendah karena dianggap membatasi akses obat. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman siswa-siswi MAN 2 Mataram mengenai bahaya resistensi antibiotik serta pencegahannya. Metode yang digunakan adalah kuisioner berupa pretest-postest untuk mengukur pemahaman sebelum dan sesudah penyampaian materi. Hasil menunjukkan, peningkatan pemahaman sebesar 44,77% dari 37,21% menjadi 81,98% yang menunjukkan tersampaikannya materi yang diberikan dengan baik. Kesimpulan pengabdian ini membuktikan bahwa edukasi mampu menjadi sarana efektif dalam mendorong penggunaan antibiotik secara rasional.

Abstract

Candida albicans infection is a common health problem in Indonesia and other tropical countries. Synthetic antifungals have been shown to develop resistance against Candida albicans. Therefore, it is necessary to explore potential natural ingredients as alternatives to synthetic antifungals. Soapnut fruit contains secondary metabolites that can inhibit or kill Candida albicans. The purpose of this study was to test the antifungal activity of Soapnuts fruit by examining the inhibition zone. The inhibition zone was tested using the well diffusion method. In this study, Soapnuts extract was used with concentrations of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. The results showed a probability value (p) of 0.008 < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between each concentration of soapnut extract and the inhibition zone diameter of Candida albicans. The best results were shown by the 100% concentration, which produced an average inhibition zone of 27.50 mm, categorized as very strong inhibition. Soapnut fruit extract exhibits a potent inhibitory effect against Candida albicans. This study can serve as a reference in the development of antifungal agents from Soapnuts fruit extract.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of torbangun leaves (Coleus amboinicus) in inhibiting the growth of Bacillus Cereus bacteria. The urgency of research is due to antibiotic resistance from the use of standard antibiotics, so that the potential of the torbangun leaf plant as an antibiotic candidate is needed. This research method is an experimental study with a Post Test Only Control Group Design research design, namely group (-) in the form of ethyl acetate 96%, group (K +) in the form of Ciprofloxacin antibiotics, treatment group 1 in the form of Ethyl Acetate extract of torbangun leaves (EATL) 20%, treatment 2 EATL 40%, treatment 3 EATL 60% and treatment 4 in the form of EATL 100%. The results showed the widest inhibition zone diameter of 35.0 mm in the (+) standard antibiotic group, followed by EATL 100% 21.7 mm and the lowest Group (-) Ethyl Acetate 96% 8 mm. The results of the One Way ANOVA test showed the effectiveness of torbangun leaves in inhibiting the growth of Bacillus Cereus bacteria with a P value <0.001. Based on the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test, EATL was 100% more effective than other concentrations, but not more effective than standard antibiotics (Group +). The conclusion of this study shows the effectiveness of Torbangun leaves (Coleus amboinicus) in inhibiting the growth of Bacillus Cereus bacteria.

Abstract

Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are mosquito vectors that are thought to be the cause of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF), especially in Indonesia, because it is a tropical climate area, and the rate of disease transmission due to mosquitoes is high. Besides that, Indonesia is known for being rich in plant species that can be used as natural larvicides. Turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa L.) is a plant that contains secondary metabolites that can be used as larvicide. The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of turmeric rhizome infusion (Curcuma longa L.) on the mortality of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquito larvae. In this study, turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa L.) infusion was used at concentrations of 25%, 50%, and 75%, as well as the positive control (abate drug) and the negative control (aquadest). The Kruskal–Wallis test results showed a probability value (p-value) of 0.001 (p<0.05) in both Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus larvae, indicating a significant difference between treatment groups, especially between the positive control and the 75% concentration of turmeric rhizome infusion treatment. Furthermore, the Mann–Whitney U test results showed that the 75% concentration exhibited a larvicidal effect against both mosquito larval types. Turmeric rhizome infusion (Curcuma longa L.) was proven to have inhibitory activity against Aedes sp. larvae, although its effectiveness was still lower than that of chemical larvicides. However, the community considered the use of turmeric rhizome infusion safer, simpler, and easier to apply than natural larvicides. Therefore, this study can serve as a reference for developing natural larvicidal agents from turmeric rhizomes (Curcuma longa L.).

Abstract

Pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan pemberdayaan mitra dalam inovasi pembuatan alat SI PINTER dari limbah rumah tangga. SI PINTER atau Inovasi Pen And Colony Counter merupakan alat kesehatan yang berperan dalam menghitung jumlah koloni bakteri seperti bakteri pencemar air Escherichia Coli (E. Coli). Pengabdian ini dilaksanakan di Pos Pelayanan Teknologi Tepat Guna (POSYANTEK) Desa Puyung, Kabupaten Lombok Tengah, Nusa Tenggara Barat yang meliputi sosialisasi dan pelatihan pembuatan alat SI PINTER dan promosi alat SI PINTER melalui media sosial. Pemberian lembar kuesioner pre-test dan post-test kepada kader mitra bertujuan menilai tingkat pemahaman pelatihan alat dan promosi alat SI PINTER melalui media sosial. Kuesioner telah teruji secara validitas (r hitung> r tabel 0,344) dan reliabilitas (Cronbhach’s Alpha= 0,961, syarat Cronbhach’s Alpha >0,6). Hasil uji statistik meggunakan SPSS versi 27 Paired-Sample T Test untuk data berdistribusi normal dan Uji Wilcoxon jika data tidak berdistribusi normal. Hasil terdapat peningkatan pemahaman kader sebesar 84% untuk sosialisasi dan pelatihan alat SI PINTER dan 14% untuk promosi alat SI PINTER melalui media sosial. Hasil secara uji statistik menunjukan terdapat perbedaan secara bermakna pemahaman kader mitra setelah penyampaian sosialisasi dan pelatihan alat SI PINTER sebesar p =0,041, (syarat p<0,05) dan secara tidak bermakna untuk promosi alat SI PINTER melalui media sosial sebesar p = 0,066, (syarat p<0,05), sehingga disimpulkan kegiatan pemberdayaan SI PINTER berdampak kepada tingkat pemahaman mitra sasaran.
