2022-06-25T02:13:56+00:00

Bumbu dapur instan adalah campuran dari berbagai macam bumbu rempah yang diolah dan diproses dengan komposisi tertentu. Penggunaan pengawet natrium benzoat pada bumbu dapur instan dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri dan jamur. Penggunaan pengawet natrium benzoat secara berlebihan dapat menyebabkan endema (bengkak), keram perut, rasa kebas di mulut, dan dalam jangka panjang menimbulkan penyakit kanker, serta dapat merusak sistem syaraf. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui kadar natrium benzoat pada bumbu dapur yang diperjualbelikan di kota Makassar. Jenis penelitian yaitu observasi laboratorik, sampel diambil sebanyak 10 dan masing-masing dianalisis dengan menggunakan alat Spektrofotometer UV-Vis pada panjanggelombang 275 nm. Hasil pengukuran terhadap 10 sampel menunjukkan kadar natrium benzoat pada sampel B1 110.95 mg/kg, sampel B2 320.97 mg/kg, sampel B3 98.91 mg/kg, sampel B4 160.07 mg/kg, sampel B5 483.96 mg/kg, sampel B6 865.41 mg/kg, sampel B7 527.58 mg/kg, sampel B8 213.59 mg/kg, sampel B9 253.90 mg/kg, sampel B10 86.59 mg/kg. Pada sampel B6 kadar natrium benzoatnya sebesar 865.41 mg/kg. Kadar ini melebihi ambang batas yang ditetapkan oleh BPOM No. 36 tahun 2013 yaitu 600 mg/kg, maka sampel tersebut dinyatakan tidak layak untuk dikonsumsi.

2022-06-25T02:13:56+00:00

Anti-acne creams are in great demand, especially for humans who have acne problems. In anti-acne creams, one of the compounds that is often added to achieve the desired effect is salicylic acid, which acts as a keratolytic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, bacteriostatic, and fungistatic agent. According to the Regulation of the Head of the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency of the Republic of Indonesia No. HK.00.05.42.1018 of 2010 concerning cosmetics, salicylic acid is allowed if it does not exceed 2%. Salicylic acid works by increasing skin moisture and promoting the removal of dead skin cells. In acne treatment, salicylic acid works by reducing inflammation (swelling and redness) and clearing clogged pores. The purpose of this study was to analyze the levels of salicylic acid in anti-acne creams that are not registered with BPOM which are traded in Makassar City using qualitative and quantitative methods. The results of qualitative research with the color test method obtained 2 positive samples from 5 samples. In the quantitative test using the spectrophotometric method, the salicylic acid content in sample A was 1.2083% and sample B was 61.875%.

A brick maker is someone who works as a brick maker and has skills related to certain crafts. Workers who make bricks and do not pay attention to the use of personal protective equipment such as boots and gloves so that the range of workers is in direct contact with sand and water. Sand and water can increase the risk of fungal infections because sand and water are factors that trigger fungal growth, one of which is on nails. The fungi that often infect nails are dermatophytes. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence or absence of dermatophyte fungi present in the nail samples of brick makers. This research is a literature study that aims to utilize library sources to obtain data. The samples studied were journals, articles, and books related to the type of dermatophyte fungi with a total of 10 literatures. The method used in this study was a literature study. The results were obtained based on the results of a review of 10 literatures. From 142 samples, 75 samples were found that were positive for dermatophytes, with the types of fungi consisting of Trichophyton rubrum (20%), Trichophyton mentagtophytes (20%), and Epidermophyton floccosum (13%). So it can be concluded that from the average results, 53% of dermatophyte fungi were found in the nail samples of brick craftsmen.

Slice Thickness is the thickness of the image slices on the CT Scan results and is one of the parameters that affect the CT Scan image. This study aims to analyze the image quality of the use of Slice Thickness variations in the CT scan of the head by paying attention to 3 aspects assessed, namely Spatial Resolution, Contrast Resolution, and Noise. This research was conducted by reconstructing the CT scan of the head into 3 types of images, namely Slice Thickness 3 mm, 5 mm, and 7 mm. The results of this study are CT scan images with a slice thickness of 3 mm have an average Spatial Resolution (3.71), Contrast Resolution (3.42), and Noise (3.85) Slice Thickness 5 mm has an average Spatial Resolution (2.71), Contrast Resolution (2.57), and Noise (3.28) and Slice Thickness 7 mm has an average Spatial Resolution (1.57), Contrast Resolution (1.71), and Noise (2 ,14). The best image quality is obtained by using a slice thickness of 3 cm.

Management And Container Design of Household Waste in Tulangan District, Sidoarjo Regency

2022-06-25T02:14:00+00:00

The background of this research is the lack of education in processing household waste in Tulangan District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java Province which causes an increase in the rate of waste generation. Therefore, this requires good waste management. This study aims to determine the characteristics of the generated household waste. In this study, it was carried out for 8 consecutive days, by collecting household waste produced every day then weighed and divided by the total number of residents of the house. From the results of research that has been carried out for 8 consecutive days in Tulangan District, the average value of generation is 0.089 kg/hari.org, with the highest value obtained on the 7th day of 0.103 kg/hari.org caused by the consumption of residents. the house on that day was high, so that a lot of waste was generated. The value of waste generated fluctuates because it is influenced by the amount of waste produced every day. So that the design of the container used is 25 40 65 cm which is able to accommodate 61666.67 cm3 of garbage. So it can be concluded if the number of members in one family will affect the rate of waste generated. Therefore, the rate of waste generation is directly proportional to the number of residents in the house.

2022-06-25T02:14:00+00:00

One of the indicators that must be considered by hospitals to improve hospital services is the efficiency of inpatient services, especially in the use of beds. In monitoring the efficiency level of bed use in the treatment room, it can be seen from the Barber Johnson chart based on the calculation results of Bed Occupancy Ratio (BOR), Average Length Of Stay (AvLOS), Internal Turn Over (TOI), Bed Turn Over (BTO). Santa Elisabeth Hospital Medan has 250 beds in inpatient rooms and 696 patients in September 2021. The purpose of this study was to determine the efficiency of bed use in inpatient rooms based on Barber Johnson charts. This type of research is descriptive. The subject of the study was the daily inpatient census recapitulation at the Santa Elisabeth Hospital Medan in September 2021. The informant was one medical record officer in the reporting section. The study was conducted in November 2021. Data collection used observation techniques. The results showed that the calculation of BOR in September 2021 was 42.20%, LOS was 5.69 days, TOI was 7.27 days and BTO was 2.34 times. The values of LOS BOR, TOI and BTO are not ideal because they do not meet the standards due to the small number of patients. It is recommended to the medical record officer at Santa Elisabeth Hospital Medan to pay attention to the formula used in calculating the BOR, AvLOS, TOI and BTO values and to make a Barber Johnson chart regularly every year so as to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the use of beds in the inpatient room and as a planning strategy for the following year.
