Abstract

The occurrence of stunting has become one of the global health challenges, especially in developing countries. The average prevalence of stunting in North Maluku province from 2021 to 2023 is around 24.9% for children under 5 years old. Stunting is a nutritional problem caused by multiple factors. Factors suspected to influence the occurrence of stunting include the diversity of food consumption and food security. Food diversity can be described through the expected food patterns score, while food security can be measured using the food security index indicator. The purpose of this research is to identify the factors causing stunting in North Maluku province from 2021 to 2023. This study uses a cross-sectional design with secondary data sources. Data analysis used Pearson and Spearman correlation as well as multiple linear regression tests. The results of the bivariate data analysis show that the average years of schooling for women (P<0.001) and the ratio of healthcare workers (P<0.001) are significantly related. As for the desirable dietary patterns (P=0.426), the population below the poverty line (P=0.142), food expenditure >65% (P=0.822), lack of access to electricity (P=0.177), lack of access to clean water (P=0.833), and life expectancy (P=0.110), these are variables that do not have a significant relationship. The multivariate analysis results show that the p-value for the average years of schooling for women is 0.005 and the healthcare worker ratio is 0.004. Thus, it can be concluded that there is a significant influence between the average years of schooling for women and the ratio of healthcare workers on the incidence of stunting in children in North Maluku province from 2021 to 2023.

Abstract

Jelly candy is one of the processed foods that is popular among all ages. Generally, Jelly candy produced on the market contains sugar, water, and essence only, without considering its nutritional content. As it is low nutritional content, it needs a great strategy to produce nutritious jelly candy by replacing the raw material with other ingredients that are rich in nutrients such as soybean sprouts. Soybean sprouts contain high protein (127% higher than soybean seeds), which is an important component for support growth, development, and maintenance of the human body tissues. This study provides food diversification in jelly candy that is rich in protein, by analyzing the effect of concentration of soybean sprout juice (0%, 40%, 70%, and 100%) and processing temperature (high temperature using oven (80ᵒC) and low temperature using refrigerator (5ᵒC)) using a 4x2 factorial randomized design. The results showed that there was no significant effect (P<0.05) between treatments in the analysis of moisture, protein and carbohydrate content, but there was no significant difference (P><0.05) of soybean sprout concentration and processing temperature between treatments in the parameters of moisture and ash content, but a significant difference (P<0.05) between treatments in the analysis of moisture, protein and carbohydrate content, but there was no significant difference (P><0.05) showed in the parameter of fat, protein, and carbohydrate content. The best treatment was obtained by adding 100% soybean sprouts and processed in the refrigerator (low temperature), with an average of 18.43% moisture content, 0.82% ash content, 7.75% fat content, 9.75% protein content, and 37.09% carbohydrates.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) which is defined as a lack of protein and energy consumption is one of the factors causing maternal mortality. The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) in the world according to WHO (2019) is 303,000. The maternal mortality rate in ASEAN is 235 per 100,000 live births. The nutritional condition of pregnant women is influenced by several variables, namely food intake, maternal health conditions, gestational age, maternal activity, income, knowledge, cultural food taboos, pregnancy spacing and parity. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between eating habits and the nutritional status of pregnant women at the Kuta Padang Layung Health Center. This study describes the correlation using a cross-sectional method using quantitative data, sampling techniques using research instruments, food recall. The results showed that in 2023 the eating habits and nutritional status of pregnant women at the Kuta Padang Layung Health Center had a p-value of 0.000 (p <0.05). For the nutritional status of pregnant women, the majority are in the good category (69.4%), the highest energy intake (65.9%), the highest protein intake (76.5%), the highest carbohydrate intake (67.1%), the highest fat intake (90.6%), and the highest consumption frequency (71.8%) are all in the good category.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of combining hydrodistillation and ultrasound methods on the yield and quality of eucalyptus leaf oil. The study uses factorial randomized block design (RBD) with two replicates, focusing on the treatment variables of ultrasound exposure time and hydrodistillation temperature and pressure. The ultrasound exposure time is divided into three categories: 5-10 minutes, 15-20 minutes, and 25-30 minutes, while the hydrodistillation temperatures are set at 50-60 °C, 70-80 °C, and 90-100 °C. The essential oil yield and quality were analyzed using ANOVA and Least Significant Difference (LSD) tests. Results indicate that the combination of hydrodistillation at 70-80 °C with ultrasound exposure for 15-20 minutes significantly increases oil yield and enhances the chemical composition of eucalyptus oil, particularly its cineole content. This method shows potential as an alternative to traditional extraction techniques, offering improvements in both efficiency and product quality. keywords:  Cineole, Eucalyptus oil, Extraction yield, Hydrodistillation, Ultrasound

Abstract

This study aims to obtain the effect of adding telang flower extract (Clitoria ternatea. L) on the edible whey film's physical and chemical properties and antioxidant activity. This research uses a randomised design group of 4 treatments and five working groups. Conducted on antioxidant activity and physical characteristics. The study's results obtained edible whey film with telang flower extract was 0.14 mm, moisture content of 16.14%, solubility time of 45.60 seconds, and water vapor transmission rate of 3.72 g/m2. day, met the standards of JIS 2019. has the highest B*(bluish) color test value of 6.50 and average antioxidant activity of 17.60% to 49.60%. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that adding telang flower extract (Clitoria ternatea L.) can act as an antioxidant in edible whey film.
