Abstract

The study of extract and fraction of Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth., herbal’s against several dermal pathogenic bacteria have been carried out in Research Laboratory of Pharmacy Department and Microbiology and Micology Laboratory Biology Department Faculty Mathematic and Natural Sciences Andalas University and Regional Medical Laboratory Center in Gunung Pangilun Padang from July until October 2007. Three kinds of dermal pathogenic bacteria were used : Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Proteus vulgaris. Antimicrobial activity was determined base on their MIC (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) and MBC (Minimal Bactericidal Concentration) through dilution method that used “Microtiterplate 96-well”. The Result showed that the best activity of herbal extract was against Proteus vulgaris (MIC 7,81 ppm and MBC 125 ppm). The most active fraction was showed in n-hexane against Proteus vulgaris (MIC 0,63 ppm and MBC 250 ppm), the etil acetat fraction (MIC 2,50 ppm and MBC 500 ppm), while the activity of n-butanol and aquaeous fraction (MIC 5 ppm and MBC 500 ppm, respectively).

Abstract

Morbiditas and mortalitas caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) or Acquired Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) trend increase and become an important problem peoples health in the world. Through out the 80% of children AIDS victim has a prenatal infection from their mother. The aim of this study is to know the relationship between CD4 value and HIV stadium at pregnant mother infected by HIV/AIDS. A descriptive method was applied in this experiment. The sample obtained, from 22 pregnant mothers victims diagnosed of HIV/AIDS infection in Posyansus RSUP. H. Adam Malik Medan since January 2012 until June 2013. Data obtained by measuring CD4 value before and after ARV theraphy, then statistically  analyzed. The result out showed that 12 of samples (55%) have low CD4 value before ARV theraphy below 200 m3. Than, CD4 value were increased after ARV theraphy not affected by the stadium status. CD4 value before and after ARV theraphy has a negative linear corellation with HIV stadium (r = -0,743) it can be conclude that increased of CD4 value give an indirect contribution to HIV stadium victims.

Abstract

The Deli river is the Pioritas I River Basin in North Sumatra, the level of community activity in the Deli river border is high such as settlements, offices, schools and industries, the community has the potential to produce a lot of solid waste in the estuary to the river body so as to make the river polluted, parameters pollution is heavy metal. The purpose of this study is to analyze the Pb content in the Deli River using the AAS tool, from the analysis of the deli river pollution level, the Lead Analysis Result (Pb) obtained from upstream to downstream is an average value of 0.003 ppm, this means that lead pollution (Pb) in the river Deli is still relatively low or has not been polluted by lead heavy metals (Pb) because according to Government Regulation No. 82 of 2001 concerning Water Quality Management and quality pollution control of 0.03 ppm standard water.

Abstract

Underwater plants are plants in the form of herbaceous plants and shrubs and low plants that cover the bottom of a forest area. Thus the function of the plant here is to withstand the destructive power of the falling rain fall and the rapid flow of water above the soil surface. Sibolangit Nature Park is a forest area with an area of ± 24.85 Ha. The existence of the lower plants in Sibolangit Nature Park become the main attraction for the visitors. The purpose of the research is to obtain the inventory data of the lower plants and describe the characters morphology. The research was conducted by using the exploration method along the path of Sibolangit Nature Park. From the research that has been done, there are 48 types of plants that consist of 31 families. Of the 48 undersea species identified, 30 of them belong to the Spermatophyta division, while the remaining 18 are included in the Pterydophyta division.Underwater plants are plants in the form of herbaceous plants and shrubs and low plants that cover the bottom of a forest area.

Abstract

Butterfly is the insect that the existence is determined by the ability of their distribution and adaptation towards the environmental factor. The decrease of the plant species diversity in a habitat will affect the diversity of the butterfly species. One of the buterflies habitat which experinces the degradation of species diversity is Resort Bandealit which some parts of the region are designated as the habitat of Invasive plants. The aim of this study is to know the composition and diversity of butterfly species in the pringtali Savannah Resort Bandealit Meru Betiri national park. The method used in the data collection is the road sampling method. The road sampling method is done by walking and counting spesimen which were collect by active collection. Exploration is carried out by walking along the five cruise lines with a length of each path is 100 m in Savana Pringtali Meru Betiri National Park. The composition and diversity species of butterfly is a 11 species represented from 3 family and 10 genus. The four most common species of butterflies found in the study area are Jamides pura, Ypthima Philomela, Leptosia nina, and Eurema hecabe.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effectiveness of the antibacterial soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata L.). The method used is the agar diffusion method. The leaves were extracted by maceration method, using ethanol as a solvent. The soursop leaf extract obtained was then diluted using ethanol 96% at a concentration of 20%, 40%,60%, 80%. Positive control using clindamycin and negative controls using sterile aquadest. The research model used in this study is an experimental research model In Vitro of type. The results showed that soursop leaf extract had antibacterial effectiveness against Propionibacterium acnes with an average inhibition zone diameter of 9,7 mm; 13,7 mm; 15,7 mm; 16,3 mm; positive control (clindamysin) 21,0 mm; and negative control (aquadest) have no value tobe able to inhibit bacterial growth.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is a respiratory disease that received special attention in the community. According to WHO more than 2 million people, one third of the total population in the world is infected by tuberculosis. Tuberculosis patients with malnutrition status have lower haemoglobin levels compared to patients with good nutritional status. The purpose of this reseach is to determine the relationship of body mass index (BMI) to the haemoglobin of patients pulmonary tuberculosis at the General Hospital Sultan Sulaiman Serdang Bedagai. This study was conducted descriptive of examination BMI and levels of haemoglobin in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at the General Hospital Sultan Sulaiman Serdang Bedagai North Sumatra Province is to create the relationship between baseline BMI and BMI end after the OAT, as well as haemoglobin beginning and haemoglobin end after the OAT. The results showed that there was a weak correlation between baseline BMI of the initial haemoglobin levels with a value of r = 0.20. While the relationship between BMI end of the final haemoglobin levels after administration of OAT for 2 months there was a strong relationship r = 0.83.
