Abstract

Background : Research has identified several plants that have potential larvicidal properties, notably Eleutherine bulbosa (Dayak onion) and Allium sativum (garlic), both of which are rich in flavonoids. Flavonoids are known insecticides, thus making these plants promising candidates to control mosquito populations and reduce the risk of dengue transmission. Objective : This study aims to evaluate the larvicidal efficacy of extracts from Dayak onion and garlic in lethal ovitraps. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study used a true experimental design with a post-test only control group. The samples used were Aedes aegypti larvae. The independent variables were larvicidal concentrations of dayak onion and garlic (0.6%, 1.2%, 1.8%) and abate as positive control. The dependent variable was mosquito larvae mortality rate. The experiment was replicated four times. Mosquito larvae were monitored and examined at intervals of 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 24 hours. Results : The average mortality of Aedes mosquito larvae on exposure to Dayak onion is not better than exposure to garlic, with an average mortality of Dayak onion 0.6% (71%), 1.2% (87%) and 1.8% (75%). Meanwhile, the effectiveness of garlic was almost the same in the three concentrations tested, which was around 99-100%. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : The garlic used was highly effective in killing mosquito larvae, even at the lowest concentration (0.6%). These results show that garlic has the potential to be a stable and consistent larvicidal agent, effective at low doses without requiring an increase in concentration to increase effectiveness.

Abstract

Background : Prevention of preeclampsia by preventing trophoblast cells damage from oxidative stress in early pregnancy using selenium supplementation is a recent and potentially cost effect means of addressing a serious worldwide problem. Several studies have demonstrated the potential effectiveness of this intervention. GPx is an antioxidant marker that indicates the ability for a woman and fetus to withstand oxidative stress during pregnancy. Objective : This study aims to look at the effect of selenium and multiple micronutrient administration on women during periconception on the level of glutathione peroxidase (GPx). Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : A double blind, randomized, control community based trial design was used in three sub-districts in the Banggai Regency of Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Samples from 103 women recruited during preconception were obtained. Ten women were pregnant and randomized. Five women were in the intervention group and five in the control group. The intervention group received Selenium 65 μg/day in a multi-micronutrient preparation (MMN), while the control group was given capsules containing iron and folic acid (Indonesian national program). During the preconceptional time, capsules were given once a week, while pregnant women were given the capsules daily. At the 12th and 20th weeks of pregnancy Selenium level examination using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrophotometry (SSA), Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) level was conducted using a sandwich ELISA method. Statistical analysis was done using T-statistics and path analysis by Partial Least Squares (PLS). Results : The group given MMN experienced a statistically significant increase of 28.4% of plasma GPx at the 12th week of gestation, and a 36.4% increase at 20 th weeks of gestation. (T- statistics=2.703>1.96) and (3.062>1.96), The control group had no increase in serum GPx. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : The administration of selenium in MMN preparations during the periconception period may be effective in reducing oxidative stress in pregnancy. Further study in evaluating the role of micronutrients in conjunction with Selenium to prevent hypertension during pregnancy is warranted.

Abstract

Background : Limboto Lake is experiencing pollution that has led to increased turbidity and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), deteriorating water quality and posing health risks to the surrounding communities. Domestic wastewater flowing into the lake is the primary source of this contamination. One approach to addressing this issue is water treatment using chitosan derived from Hermetia illucens pupal shells, which has active amino groups acting as a natural biocoagulant. Chitosan was selected for its eco-friendly, biodegradable properties and its effectiveness in coagulation and flocculation processes. Objective : This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan in reducing turbidity and TDS levels in water samples from Limboto Lake. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : The research method employed was a laboratory experiment with a pre-test and post-test control group design, involving chitosan concentrations of 50, 100, and 150 ppm. Results : Results indicated that the highest reduction in turbidity occurred at a 100 ppm concentration, from a pre-treatment level of 14.14 NTU down to 1.79 NTU, or about 87.34%, meeting clean water quality standards. Furthermore, the highest TDS reduction was also observed at 100 ppm, from 68.93 mg/L pre-treatment to 41.3 mg/L, a reduction of approximately 40.08%, remaining within safe limits as per Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Based on these findings, it can be concluded that Hermetia illucens chitosan is effective as a natural biocoagulant in reducing turbidity and TDS in lake water. The use of chitosan holds potential as an eco-friendly alternative solution for water treatment.

Abstract

Background : Pregnant women at risk of developing chronic energy deficiency (CED) are among the victims of malnutrition. Pregnant women who are at risk for CED can disrupt the fetus's growth and development, namely physical growth (stunting), brain development, and body metabolism. Objective : To determine the elements that affect pregnant women's chronic energy insufficiency Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This cross-sectional study was conducted in Banggai Regency. This study included 101 pregnant women. The dependent variable is CED status, while the independent variable is maternal features. The analysis used univariate and bivariate tests such as the Chi-square test and the Liniear Regression test. Results : This research shows that 24% of pregnant women still experience CED. Then the results of the Chi-square analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between maternal age and maternal weight before pregnancy on the incidence of CED with respective p values 0.023 and 0.001 (p<0.05). The percentage of relationship between the two variables on the incidence of CED is maternal age with an R square value of 0.103 (10.3%) and for maternal weight before pregnancy of 0.690 (69%). Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Determinant factors that influence CED in pregnant women were found, including the age of the pregnant woman and her weight before pregnancy. Furthermore, it was seen that the mother's weight before pregnancy had a large influence of 69% on the incidence of CED and the age of the pregnant woman had a 10.3% influence on the incidence of CED.
