Antibacterial Effect Of Curcuminoid Silica Nanoparticle To Escherichia Coli Bacteria
Get PDFBackground: Escherichia coli is one of the main bacteria that cause urinary tract infection. In the past few years, Escherichia coli’s susceptibility to antibiotic has been decreased and causing antibiotic resistance. Furthermore, Curcuma longa plant has been used daily by the population as a cooking spice, and evidently has an antibacterial effect on some bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli. Curcumin as the active ingredients of Curcuma longa has a low water solubility and poor absorption so that silica nanoparticle usage will help the solubility and absorption problem of Curcumin. Aim: This study aimed to know the antibacterial effect of Curcuminoid silica nanoparticles to
Escherichia coli. Methods: This research is an in vitro experimental study and checking by using a microdilution method and observed with a spectrophotometer. Results: There is 60,6% inhibition obtained at 1000 μg/mL. MIC and MBC were not obtained at 62,5 μg/mL to 32000 μg/mL.
Conclusion: Curcuminoid silica nanoparticles has no antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli

Correlation Between Maternal Knowledge Of Exclusive Breastfeeding And Breastfeeding Pattern At Waru Primary Healthcare Center Sidoarjo In 2017
Get PDFIntroduction: Globally, the rate of child mortality is mostly due to recurrent infection and nutritional factors. Promotion of exclusive breastfeeding and appropriate weaning food can reduce the risk of getting a chronic disease and under-5 mortality and morbidity. Exclusive breastfeeding means giving only breast milk without adding and/or replacing it with any other food or drink (except drugs, vitamins, and minerals). Exclusive breastfeeding has many benefits both for mother and infant. Aim: This study was to investigate the correlation between maternal knowledge about breastfeeding and breastfeeding pattern among breastfeeding mothers at Waru Primary Healthcare Center Sidoarjo. Methods: This study is an observational analytical study employing cross-sectional design and Spearman correlation for data analysis. This study was conducted at Waru Primary Healthcare Center Sidoarjo between August and September 2017. This study was conducted in a total of 100 participants. This research used a questionnaire as an instrument. Resulta: The result showed a significant correlation (p = 0,049). Thus it can be concluded that there is a correlation between mother's knowledge level about breastfeeding with mother
breastfeeding pattern at Waru District Health Center Sidoarjo. The correlation coefficient value (r=0.197) indicates that the positive correlation is very weak between the mother's knowledge level and the pattern of the lactating mother. Conclusion: These results indicate that the higher the level of mother's knowledge, the higher the pattern of breastfeeding mothers. Increased knowledge and breastfeeding patterns may reduce the risk of chronic illness, morbidity and mortality rates among under-fives. This research can be useful for education, and it is expected that health workers can cooperate with the government in promoting exclusive breastfeeding
Relationship Of Nutritional Status With Degree And Type Of Anemia In Vegetarian
Get PDFIntroduction: A vegetarian that consumes only plant foods is at risk for anemia due to nutritional deficiencies, especially iron and vitamin B12.
Aim : to identify the level of nutritional intake, nutritional status, degree of anemia and type of anemia in a vegetarian group and to analyze the relationship between nutritional status with degree and type of anemia.
Method : This study used analytic research, with correlational study, through cross sectional approach. The sampling technique of this research was purposive sampling at Vihara Thien Bao (Maha Vihara) with sample of 38 people including inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed by using Rank Spearman test to measure the correlational relationship between nutritional status with degree of anemia and the contingency coefficient test measure the correlational relationship between nutritional status with type of anemia. Result : Intake of energy (71.89%), carbohydrate (74.56%), fat (68.04%), protein (134.38%), vitamin B12 (98.83%) and iron (25,04%) for men. Intake of energy (65,42%), carbohydrate (69,21%), fat (63,94%), protein (100,48%), vitamin B12 (45,30%) and iron (27,67%) for
women. These data were compared with RDA. P value for nutritional status correlation analysis with degree of anemia was 0,639 and p value for nutritional status correlation analysis with type of anemia was 0,851.
Conclusion : There was a deficit of energy, carbohydrate, fat, and iron in both gender. Protein intake was excessive in man and normal in woman. Iron and vitamin B12 intake were adequate in man and deficient in woman. Energy intake was deficient in man and very deficient in women. The nutritional intake was less likely cause anemia. There was no correlation between nutritional status with degree and type of anemi
History Of Tuberculosis Contact And Tuberculin Test Result
Get PDFIntroduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. History of tuberculosis contact has consequences for TB infection. Density of occupancy may also accelerate TB transmission. Tuberculin test is a screening method that can detect TB infection. However, BCG immunization can reduce the specificity of tuberculin test results because it causes false positive results. Aim: The aim of this study is to see the relationship between history of TB contact and tuberculin test results. Other variables related to tuberculin test results were also examined i.e. occupancy density and incidence of BCG immunization. Methods: This research was conducted with cross-sectional analytic design using contingency coefficient test with a value of ɑ = 0.1. TB contacts subjects were taken from Surabaya Pulmonary Hospital and non-TB contacts subjects were volunteers from Medical Faculty of Widya Mandala Catholic University volunteers and Medical Faculty of Wijaya Kusuma. Each group consisted of 25 people taken using consecutive sampling technique. There is a significant correlation between history of tuberculosis contact and tuberculin test (p = 0,000); There is no significant correlation between BCG immunization history and tuberculin test results (p = 0.221) Result: There is a significant correlation between occupancy density and tuberculin test results (p = 0.066). Conclusion: It can be concluded that history of tuberculosis contact and occupancy density are associated with positive tuberculin test results
