Abstract

Proteins are unstable molecules because of their complex structure and easily degraded by enzymatic systems. Biodegradable microspheres have been used in protein delivery system. Bovine serum albumin was chosen as a model protein. Chitosan/tripolyphosphate microparticles have already been used to encapsulated BSA. The aim of this work was to microencapsulate these protein-CS/TPP by ionic gelation and freeze-drying. The morphology, particle size, and encapsulation efficiency of the prepared microspheres were investigated. The results revealed that the microspheres exhibited good sphericity with ranged in size from 2.25 to 2.73 µm. The study found that the moisture content of microspheres was 2.8%, the encapsulation efficiency of BSA in CS-TPP microspheres ranged from 88.14 to 96.25%. The results suggested that iontoropic gelation method will be an effective method for fabricating chitosan microspheres for delivery of protein.. Keywords: Microspheres, BSA, Ionic Gelation

Abstract

Alendronate is a drug of the bisphosphonate group used for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. However, when given orally, alendronate can cause indigestion and osteonecrosis of the jaw. It also has a poor bioavailability. Taking these disadvantages into account, an injection formulation of alendronate was created in this study to act on the site locally. Beside alendronate, the injection also contains bovine hydroxyapatite and gelatin as alendronate carriers. Both, besides being able to act as carriers, are also able to reduce bone damage caused by osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of alendronate injection for fractures caused by osteoporosis in mouse models that were ovariectomized. The parameters used in this study were ALP concentration in blood and bone radiology. The results of ALP concentration showed that there were no significant differences in each group. The average ALP concentration of the negative control group was 277.67 ± 46.090, in the positive control group 270.33 ± 189.716, in the BHA-Gel group 406.33 ± 212.547 and in the BHA-Gel Alendronate group 325.00 ± 73.750. Bone radiology results and macroscopic observations still showed bone defects in each group.Yet in the negative control group, the BHAGel-Alendronate group and the BHA-Gel group, bone defects were almost entirely ameliorated. On the contrary, bone defects were still present in the positive control group. Based on the results obtained, it was shown that the injection of alendronate has not been shown to significantly overcome osteoporosis fractures.

Abstract

Coenzyme Q10, often also known as ubiquinone, coenzyme Q10 or Q10, is soluble in lipids and is naturally present in plants, animals and in mitochondria. Coenzyme Q10 functions as an antioxidant that can protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. Hyaluronic acid is known as a hydrophilic polymer derived from polysaccharides which has the ability to increase percutaneous penetration by changing the composition of tightly arranged stratum corneum cells to increase the permeability of the skin. Nanostructured Lipid Carrier is a modification of the SLN system, consisting of a mixture of solid and liquid lipids (oil), stabilized by aqueous surfactant solution, is one method to increase drug penetration through the stratum corneum because it has several advantages. The purpose of this study was to see the effect of adding hyaluronic acid to the characteristics of the Nanostructure Lipid Carrier (NLC) as anti aging. Examination of characteristics including organoletis, pH, particle size and polidispersity index was carried out. The results of organoleptic NLC coenzym Q10-HA examination obtained dark orange color, liquid consistency, lipid efficacy odor and soft texture. The pH measurement results of the preparation ranged from 5.05-5.23. The results of the particle size examination ranged from 267-128 nm and the particle size distribution ranged between 0.308-0.200 Keywords: Coenzym Q10, Hyaluronic acid , NLC

Abstract

Exercise such as Diabetes dance of Persadia 1 is the evolvement of prior diabetes dance series with aerobic principle with more eccentric movement. Diabetes dance of Persadia 1 has been inspected effective for lowering fasting blood glucose, but its still unknown about its effect on blood level of total cholesterol. The aim of this research was to analyze the effect of exercise on total cholesterol level. This research was experimental study, with 16 subject of healthy housewifes and divided on 2 groups, that were exercise and control group. Exercise group was given with diabetes dance of Persadia 1 while control group have the unstructured activity. Blood level of total cholesterol (TC) has been measured after 24 hours post single bout exercise (acute-AE) and repeated exercise (chronic exercise-CE). Paired t-test analysis on both acute (AC) (p=0.005) and chronic (CC) (p=0.006) shows TC decrease significantly on control group, as well as on AE (p=0.001) and CE (p=0.001). However, TC tend to increase on CC though not significantly increase (p=0.916), while on CE tend to decrease significantly (p=0.041). This study showed that both acute and cronic exercise decrease total cholesterol level in human blood. Keywords: Interleukin-6, Total cholesterol level, Exercise

Abstract

Studies have been conducted worldwide on attrition, a persistent issue affecting nursing education. Most focus on predictive factors of attrition or at-risk populations. Few focus on those who experienced it and their actual reasons. This integrative review seeks to investigate published literature, both qualitative and quantitative researches about actual or perceived factors that lead to temporary or permanent attrition among undergraduate nursing students. The review includes eight articles published in major health literature databases from 1996 to 2016. The lack of a unified definition of attrition is a major limitation in various studies. Findings reveal that there is no single reason why a student decided to leave. The complex factors identified were thematically grouped in three systems utilizing the Micro-meso-macro System Framework of personal (micro-system), institutional (meso-system) and professional (macro-system) levels. Better conceptual and operational definition of attrition is needed to facilitate more accurate reporting in institutions of higher education. Stakeholders affected by nursing student attrition need to address each identified factor in the multiple and inter-related levels to determine a comprehensive and collaborative plan to address the growing issue of attrition in nursing education.

Abstract

Toilet facilities that do not meet health requirements can cause infectious diseases to the society. Toilet is residential facility. An average economy condition causes the family unable to build facilities / own defecation place because family income prioritizes more on daily family needs like meal cost and education cost. Therefore eventhough that family has awareness and desire but can not afford to build feces disposal facilities because of fund difficulty. The purpose of this research is to know the effect of family economy to the availability of family toilet at Luwohu Village of Bone Bolango Disctrict. The type of this research was analytic observational research with cross sectional research design. Chi square test result showed X2 countation (7.25) was bigger than X2 table (3.841), with p value = 0.007 which means that there was a very significant effect between family economy to the availability of family toilets at Luwohu Village, with other words the higher family economy was, family toilets were more increasingly available. It is advised that the Government of Luwohu Village, should be able to give motivation to the society to have family toilets or add public facilities like public toilets at least two in every environment and Public Health Centers through sanitation officer should give counseling and techincal assistance at building family toilet and the head of family should work hard to have family toilet at least in a simple form but meets the health requirements.
