Relationship between Knowledge and Working Period with Compliance with the Use of Pesticide Spray PPE by Farmers in Triyagan Village
No full textIn 2019, there were 147 cases of agricultural pesticide poisoning in Indonesia. Preventing pesticide poisoning requires a high knowledge of personal protective equipment (PPE) and extensive work experience among farmers. This helps farmers become more skilled and aware of the risks, making them more careful and compliant with PPE usage. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge and years of service with compliance in using PPE when spraying pesticides. The research is analytical and observational with a cross-sectional design. Respondents were 57 farmers from Triyagan Village, all members of farmer groups. Total sampling was used to select participants. The research instruments included a questionnaire to assess farmers' knowledge and years of service and an observation sheet to evaluate PPE compliance. Data were analyzed using the gamma test and logistic regression. Bivariate analysis with the gamma test revealed a significant relationship between knowledge and years of service with PPE compliance among farmers in Triyagan Village (p = 0.033; r = 0.525; p = 0.037; r = 0.402). Multivariate analysis with logistic regression further confirmed the significant relationship, indicating that knowledge had a greater influence on PPE compliance than years of service (p = 0.033; OR = 3.319; p = 0.037; OR = 1.708). In conclusion, knowledge and tenure are significantly related to PPE compliance among farmers in Triyagan Village. Enhanced knowledge appears to be the critical factor in properly using PPE when spraying pesticides.In 2019, there were 147 cases of agricultural pesticide poisoning in Indonesia.

Analysis of River Water Pollution on the Population of Tin Head Fish (Aplocheilus panchax) in an Islamic Perspective
No full textThe community's disposal of various types of waste leads to a high level of water pollution, which in turn causes a decline in both water quality and quantity. Pollution is the entry or containment of living things through human activities, resulting in a decrease in quality to a certain level, which leads to the environment not operating as specified. Various types of waste contribute to pollution, creating chemical and organic compounds that pose a threat to living organisms. This study aims to record and provide information on the effect of river water pollution on the population of tinhead fish (Aplocheilus panchax) in the river Jl. Purworejo, Central Java. The research methodology was carried out on the river Jl. Purworejo, Central Java, with the tools and materials used in the form of GPS smartphones, cameras, stationery (field books, pens), fish, and garbage in the research location. We conducted descriptive exploratory research, literature reviews, and library studies. We once collected data from a garbage-covered river. Observations confirmed that there were as many as seven species of tinhead fish in river waters. The findings indicate that the presence of organic and inorganic waste in polluted waters has an impact on the quantity of tinhead fish inhabiting clean waters with lush vegetation. This report is the first piece of information regarding the influence of river water quality on Jl. Purworejo, Central Java. Other parts of the river require research and cleanup efforts.The community's disposal of various types of waste leads to a high level of water pollution, which in turn causes a decline in both water quality and quantity.

Exposure To Infrared Rays Effectively Reduces the Total Germs on Eating Equipment in The Industrial Canteen
No full textTraditional food processing methods, unclean presentation and storage, and poor cutlery washing contribute to food-related diseases. The research occurred in an industry that transports oil and natural gas, fills LPG cylinders, and provides canteen facilities for workers to eat. According to Minister of Health Regulation No. 1096 of 2011, which pertains to Food Service Sanitation Hygiene, the permissible limit for the number of germs on cutlery surfaces is 0 colonies per cm2. The inspection results showed that the number of germs on the plate did not meet the recommended 321 colonies/cm2 threshold. We conducted this study to investigate the impact of varying infrared irradiation times on the number of germs on cutlery. The research was conducted using an experimental design, including a posttest and a control group, and involved three different irradiation time treatments: 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and 20 minutes, each with six repetitions. The study population consisted of 35 cutlery plates with a sample size 24. Data analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Walli's test, with results obtained at p <0.05 (0.000). After being irradiated for 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and 20 minutes, the average number of germs was 32 colonies/cm2, 11 colonies/cm2, and 0 colonies/cm2. The study's findings on reducing the number of germs in the industry were influenced by differences in the length of time for infrared light irradiation. It is recommended that sterilization cabinets be used in the industry to reduce the number of germs in industrial cutlery.Traditional food processing methods, unclean presentation and storage, and poor cutlery washing contribute to food-related diseases.

Impact of Risks Due to Exposure to Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) on Communities Around the Medang Prabumulih River TPA
No full textSungai Medang Landfill in Prabumulih City manages waste through the sanitary landfill method, though not optimally. Waste undergoes anaerobic decay by microorganisms, producing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. Low concentrations of H2S can irritate the eyes, nose, or throat. This study aimed to analyze the environmental health risks of H2S exposure to communities around the Medang Prabumulih River landfill. The Environmental Health Risk Analysis (EHRA) method with a deterministic approach was used. The study sampled 92 people living within a radius of 250 meters and ±500 meters, using purposive sampling techniques. Results showed the highest concentration of H2S at 0.0015 μg/m3 and the lowest at 0.0001 μg/m3. The average intake value (real time) was 0.00053 μg/m3, with a risk level of 0.267 RQ (<1). These results indicate that the current risk level due to H2S exposure is safe and does not pose non-carcinogenic health risks. However, future increases in H2S concentrations may occur due to the rising amount of waste from increased population and urbanization. It is recommended to install air purifiers in homes and plant barrier plants like Liriope spicata (lilyturf/monkey grass) around residences to reduce odors from the landfill.Sungai Medang Landfill in Prabumulih City manages waste through the sanitary landfill method, though not optimally.

The Effect of Motored Houses on Coliform Pollution in Marine Waters and Its Impact On Public Health, Jayapura City
No full textAn anchored house, which stands above seawater, is common in North Jayapura and South Jayapura. Wooden foundations support these houses. People frequently contract waterborne diseases when they use or consume water that is contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, such as coliform bacteria from human feces. In these areas, high levels of coliform bacteria can have an impact on water quality and public health. This study looks into how anchored houses affect total coliform contamination, the number of cases of waterborne disease (WBD), and the link between demographic factors, water quality, and WBD cases. We use the Most Probable Number (MPN) method to detect total coliform bacteria in marine waters. It consists of an initial test using LBS and LBD media for prediction, followed by a second test using Brilliant Green Lactose Bile Broth (BGLBB) media for confirmation. We also use observation and interview methods to identify WBD cases in anchored housing in North Jayapura and South Jayapura districts. North Jayapura has the highest coliform bacteria contamination in marine waters, with an average of 25.7 MPN/100 mL. Similarly, the highest contamination in clean water is in North Jayapura, averaging around 347.6 MPN/100 mL. The demographic characteristics in both districts are mostly men aged 18–65 years with high school education and occupations such as housewives and fishermen. The South Jayapura sub-district has the highest incidence of WBD. Anchored houses have no significant effect on water quality or the incidence of WBD, and there is no correlation between water quality and WBD incidence.An anchored house, which stands above seawater, is common in North Jayapura and South Jayapura.
