Abstract

Background: Sponges are tools used to clean cutlery. Dishwashing sponges are the main source of bacterial cross-contamination because they can transmit foodborne pathogens. Sponges that are used for a long time will have more potential to grow various microorganisms, such as bacteria from the Enterobacteriaceae family, including Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp..and the proper duration of use on sponges to avoid bacterial contamination. Materials and Methods: The type of research is descriptive, with a Quota sampling technique with a sample size of 6 dishwashing sponges at 6 points in the house (2 samples at one time), which have been determined on three indicators, namely 3,5,7 weeks of use. Observation and testing data collection methods. Results: The results showed negative Esherichia coli bacteria in all sponge samples with a duration of use of 3, 5, and 7 weeks, while positive Salmonella sp. bacteria in 1 sponge sample with a duration of use of 7 weeks. Conclusions: There were Salmonella sp. bacteria in 1 sample, namely a sponge used for 7 weeks and no Escherichia coli bacteria were found in all samples, all samples of dishwashing sponges with a usage period of 3, 5, and 7 weeks tested positive for bacterial contamination, so the minimum usage period for the sponge is 2 weeks, to avoid bacterial contamination from the dishwashing sponge.

Abstract

Hyperglycemia and hypertension are two common health disorders among the elderly. Persistently elevated blood glucose levels in individuals with diabetes mellitus can lead to various health complications, one of which is hypertension. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether there is an association between hyperglycemia and hypertension among elderly individuals attending the integrated healthcare post (Posyandu) in Kubangsari Village, Ketanggungan District, Brebes Regency, in 2025. This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 80 respondents were included as samples. Random blood glucose levels were measured using a point-of-care testing (POCT) device, while blood pressure was measured using a sphygmomanometer. Quantitative data analysis was performed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that 61 respondents (76.3%) had normal blood glucose levels, and 34 respondents (42.5%) had normal blood pressure. The Chi-square analysis indicated a significance value of p < 0.001, suggesting a statistically significant association between hyperglycemia and hypertension. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that hyperglycemia contributes to the occurrence of hypertension among the elderly. Therefore, routine health examinations are necessary to prevent further complications.
