Abstract

A recent report highlighted cases of contamination in children's cough syrup containing diethylene glycol, which poses potential health risks for children. This study aims to identify the presence of diethylene glycol in various children's cough syrups sold in Makassar City using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and FT-IR Spectroscopy methods. A total of 9 samples of children's cough syrup from three different brands, each originating from three batches, were analyzed in this study. The TLC analysis results showed significant differences between the samples and the standard. The Rf values of the samples ranged from 0.72 to 0.85, while the Rf value of the diethylene glycol standard was recorded at 0.41. Additionally, FT-IR analysis, based on the wave numbers and intensity of the spectra, indicated that the sample spectra did not match those of the diethylene glycol standard. Based on the evaluation of all children's cough syrup samples using these two methods, no profiles consistent with the characteristics of diethylene glycol were detected.

Abstract

In Indonesia, stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The National Guidelines for Medical Services Stroke (PNPK) which was established in 2019, provides guidance for raising the bar for stroke treatment. The purpose of this scoping study is to understand the profile of stroke patients in Indonesia following the PNPK 2019 with an emphasis on drug therapy, evaluation, and rationality. This study used a scoping review design with article searches using the PubMed and Google Scholar databases from 2020 to 2024. Criteria for inclusion include articles about stroke prevention in Indonesia, which can be accessed and used after PNPK 2019. From 1288 articles in PubMed and 80 articles in Google Scholar, 11 articles were selected that met the criteria. The most commonly used treatment combinations for stroke patients are neuroprotectants, antiplatelet, antihypertensive, and anti dislipidemia. Neuroprotectants, such as Citicoline, are the most commonly used drugs. The most effective antihypertensive treatment is a combination of CCB and ARBs. The majority of articles demonstrate high drug rationality, with accurate indication, patient, medication, and dosage reaching 100%. There are advantages to using rtPA for thrombolysis treatment, particularly in terms of onset time, access, and systemic benefits. While the profile of drug therapy among ischemic stroke patients in Indonesia demonstrates high rationality, the 2019 PNPK Stroke places more emphasis on therapy for ischemic stroke patients in the hyperacute phase, However, research on the application of therapy in hyperacute phase ischemic stroke patients has not been extensively conducted.

Abstract

Isolation, Identification, and Antibacterial Activity of Endophytic Fungi from Ziziphus spina-christi Leaves Against Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis Ziziphus spina-christi L. (Arabian bidara) has long been used in traditional medicine for preventing acne and enhancing skin health. Acne pathogenesis is closely associated with the proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis. This study aimed to isolate endophytic fungi from bidara leaves and assess their ability to produce antibacterial secondary metabolites. Endophytes were isolated through surface sterilization and successive purification on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar, followed by fermentation on Potato Dextrose Agar and ethyl acetate extraction. Phytochemical profiling and antibacterial activity were evaluated using standard qualitative assays and the agar diffusion method on Mueller Hinton Agar, respectively.Six pure isolates were obtained: brown (Aspergillus niger), grey (Colletotrichum sp.), cream (Aspergillus terreus), green (Aspergillus flavus), turquoise (Aspergillus fumigatus), and white (Cylindrocladium sp.). Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, and tannins in varying combinations across isolates. Antibacterial testing showed that all isolates inhibited P. acnes and S. epidermidis, except the green isolate, which exhibited no bactericidal activity. These findings indicate that bidara leaf endophytes represent a promising source of antibacterial compounds with potential applications in acne management.
