Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Garbage collector is a group of workers with a high risk of developing helminthic infection. This is because the profession mostly related with garbage is susceptible to higher risk of exposure to worm egg. Health promotion for the use of self-protective equipments and personal hygiene is one of the ways of developing awareness among the garbage collectors to behave and act based on their knowledge. This would eventually reduce the incidence of helminthic.Objectives: To find out the effect of health promotion for the use of Self-Protective Equipment and personal hygiene in improving knowledge, attitude, and garbage collecting practice and to get a description on the  helminthic infection.Methods: A quasi experiment study was conducted with Pretest and Posttest Group Design. Samples of the study were garbage collectors, who were selected with purposive sampling technique. The samples were divided into two groups: treatment group (25 respondents) and control group (25 respondents). Data were collected using questionnaires for knowledge, attitude, practice, and fecal samples. The data were analyzed using statistical analyses, namely, paired t-test and independent t-test with a significance level of p=0,05.Results: Knowledge who received health promotion (treatment group), on the helminthic infection was better than those in the control group, who did not receive health promotion. No significant difference was found for attitude and personal hygiene practice between the treatment group and the control group. A decrease of helminthic infection was found after the health promotion in both the treatment group and the control group.Conclusion: Health promotion can enhance the garbage collectors’ knowledge on the prevention and reduce the incidence of helminthic infections. Keywords: Health promotion, garbage collectors, helminthic infection

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroducition: Dengue Fever (DF) and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) are caused by Dengue virus that consists of 4 serotypes of Dengue Virus (DENV) 1, 2, 3 and 4. Isolation of Dengue virus using C6/36 cell is considered as a gold standard for the diagnosis of Dengue virus infection. Dengue Team of Gadjah Mada University successfully produced monoclonal antibodies of DENV 3 originating from hybrid cells of DSSC7, DSSE10 and WDSSB5. The detection of Dengue virus’s antigens of Ae. aegypti in human blood smear with Streptavidine Biotin Peroxide Complex (SBPC) immunocytochemistry method using DSSC7 primary antibody is highly sensitive and specific, whereas using WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody yet to be characterized. Objective: The study aimed to identify characterization and application of WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody as primary antibody for detection of Dengue virus originating from serum of patients with Dengue infection which was inoculated in C6/36 cell line using SBPC immunocytochemistry method.Methods: The study was experimentally designed. Propagation of WDSSB5 hybridoma cell was performed in vitro and in vivo. The characterization consisted of classification of WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody, examination of WDSSB5 ascites protein level, sensitivity and specificity of  immunocytochemical SBPC method using WDSSB5 primary antibody and specificity of monoclonal antibody against Dengue antigen with Dot Blot method. Dengue virus obtained from patients was inoculated in C6/36 cell. Detection of Dengue virus antigen was performed by SBPC immunocytochemistry method with WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody as primary antibody. Positive control was made using C6/36 cell infected with DENV 1, 2, 3, 4 and inoculated in C6/36 cell, whereas negative control uses cell C6/36 not infected with Dengue virus.Results: There was WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody detected in this research which was belonged to IgG class and IgG1 subclass. The least content of WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody that can detect Dengue antigen in C6/36 cell was 2.2 µg/µL. The WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody was sensitive to  detect DENV 1, 2, 3, 4 antigens in C6/36 cell using SBPC immunocytochemistry method.Conclusion: There was WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody specific againts Dengue virus identified in this study. WDSSB5 monoclonal antibody belonged to class IgG and subclass IgG1. WDSSB5 Monoclonal antibody can be applied to detect Dengue virus originating from serum of patients positively carrying Dengue virus inoculated in C6/36 cell using SPBC immunocytochemistry method.

Abstract

Introduction: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Yogyakarta is an endemic area of DHF. One of the efforts of eradicating DHF in Yogyakarta was fogging with cypermethrin insecticide. Cypermethrin had been used since 2008 with a frequency of 1.469 times. However, repeated and prolonged application of chemical insecticide in an ecosystem unity may lead to vector resistance against the particular insecticide. Monitoring and early detection for the vector susceptibility status against insecticide was necessary in potential locations of DHF transmission, such as in elementary school. Detection of vector susceptibility status against insecticide could be conducted with susceptibility test using 0.05% cypermethrin impregnated paper.Objectives: To find out the status of Aedes aegypti susceptibility against cypermethrin insecticide and the relationship between the status of Aedes aegypti susceptibility with the frequency of cypermethrin application.Methods: An analytical observational research was conducted using cross-sectional design. Female Aedes aegypti from mosquito eggs collected at 72 state Elementary Schools in 45 villages in Yogyakarta were evaluated. Detection of Aedes aegypti susceptibility against cypermethrin was conducted using WHO standard method, namely, susceptibility test, which used 0.05% cypermethrin impregnated paper.Results: Aedes aegypti at elementary schools in Yogyakarta had been resistant against 0.05% cypermethrin, with an average mortality of 4.03%. No correlation between Aedes aegypti susceptibility in the elementary schools in Yogyakarta and the frequency of cypermethrin application. This might be attributable to the use of household insecticide and to the resistance history of the test animals.Conclusions: The population of Aedes aegyptiat the State Elementary Schools in Yogyakarta was found to be resistant against 0.05% cypermethrin. No relationship between Aedes aegypti susceptibility status and the frequency of cypermethrin application. Keywords: Aedes aegypti, Cypermethrin, impregnated paper, Susceptibility Test,  INTISARI Pendahuluan: Demam Berdarah Dengue adalah penyakit infeksi yang disebarkan oleh nyamuk Aedes aegypti. Kota Yogyakarta merupakan daerah endemis DBD. Salah satu cara penanggulangan DBD di kota Yogyakarta dengan pengasapan menggunakan insektisida sipermetrin. Penggunaan sipermetrin sudah dilakukan sejak tahun 2008 dengan frekuensi aplikasi sebanyak 1469 kali. Aplikasi insektisida kimia dalam waktu lama dan berulang di satuan ekosistem dapat menimbulkan resistensi vector terhadap insektisida yang digunakan.  Monitoring dan deteksi dini status kerentanan vector terhadap insektisida di kota Yogyakarta perlu dilakukan di lokasi yang berpotensi sebagai tempat penularan DBD diantaranya di sekolah dasar. Deteksi status kerentanan vector terhadap insektisida dapat dilakukan dengan susceptibility test menggunakan impregnated paper sipermetrin 0.05%.Tujuan: Mengetahui status kerentanan nyamuk Aedes aegypti di Lingkungan SDN di Kota Yogyakarta terhadap insektisida sipermetrin dan mengetahui hubungan status kerentanannya dengan frekuensi aplikasi insektisida sipermetrin.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional analitik dengan rancangan crosssectional.
