Abstract

Cyclamate is one type of artificial sweetener that is widely used in beverages. However, excessive consumption can hurt health. This study aims to determine the presence of cyclamate content in iced tea products sold in the Sekaran Raya area around the campus of Semarang State University. The method used was descriptive research through qualitative analysis in the Integrated Science Laboratory with the precipitation technique. Three samples of iced tea drinks and one positive control sample (with cyclamate added) were analyzed by adding barium chloride (BaCl2) reagent in an acidic atmosphere, with concentrations of 10% and 30%, respectively. The test results showed that one of the samples, iced tea sample RY, formed a white precipitate, indicating the presence of cyclamates, where 30% BaCl₂ produced more precipitate than 10% BaCl₂. This finding suggests that precipitation techniques with higher concentrations of BaCl₂ can improve the visibility of cyclamate detection. However, it should be noted that increasing the concentration of BaCl₂ is not always directly proportional to the identification quality because too high a concentration can cause interference and interfere with the clarity of the observation results.

Several risk factors for postpartum blues include age, parity, pregnancy status, and support from husbands and families. The global prevalence of postpartum blues ranges from 3% to 8%, while in Lampung, 14.6% of mothers experience postpartum blues. Based on the results of a pre-survey conducted in Airan Raya during June 2024, it was recorded that 63 mothers experienced postpartum blues. Objectives: The aim of this study is to identify the factors associated with the occurrence of postpartum Baby Blues Syndrome among postpartum mothers at Airan Raya Hospital.

The subjects are postpartum mothers from May to June 2024 at Airan Raya Hospital, with a total of 63 postpartum mothers and a total sampling technique, resulting in 63 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test. Result: The results of the study showed a relationship between age and the incidence of postpartum blues syndrome with a p value of 0.001, a relationship between parity and the incidence of postpartum baby blues syndrome with a p value of 0.001, a relationship between pregnancy status and the incidence of postpartum baby blues syndrome with a p value of 0.007, and a relationship between husband's support and the incidence of postpartum baby blues syndrome with a p value of 0.063. Conclusion: There is a relationship between age, parity, pregnancy status and husband's support with the incidence of postpartum blues syndrome.
