    The research entitled "Phytochemical Screening and antibacterial activity  of Etlingera sublimata Poulsen (Zingiberaceae), an Endemic Sulawesi of Plants  was conducted from January 2020 to June 2020, at the Plant Biosystematics Laboratory and Biotechnology Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Tadulako University. Samples of E. sublimata  were collected  from the mountane forests of the Lore Lindu National Park (LLNP), arround Sedoa village, Lore Utara District, Poso Regency The objectives of the research were to analyze the   secondary metabolite compounds in E. sublimata plants and to determine the antibacterial activity of E. sublimata leaves extract in againts Salmonella thypii bacteria. Plant samples were extracted by maceration methods with 96% ethanol as a solvent. Actibacterial activity was tested by using agar well diffusion  methods. The experiment was designed by Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with seven different concentration of E. sublimata  extract (15, 25, 50, 75 and 85%). Extract and standard drugs were prepared in double-distilated water using Nutrient Agar tubes.  2% Chloramphenicol as standard drugs was  used as a  positive control and sterile aquadest was used as a negative control. The inhibition zone of bacteria and yeast growth around the disk was measured after 18 to 24 h incubation at 37°C.   The results showed that the stem contains alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, tannins and saponins. The rhizome containts alkaloid, flavonoids, terpenoids, tannins and saponins, the flowers containts alkaloid, terpenoids and tannins, while the leaves containts tannin and saponin compounds. Leaves extract of E.sublimata has inhibition activity on the cell growth a pathogenic Salmonella thypi bacteria that the effective extract concentration was 50% with an average inhibition zone  â€‹â€‹2.67 mm

    ABSTRAK Puti Andalusia Sarigando Banilai. Risiko Faktor Lingkungan dan Upaya Pemberantasan Sarang Nyamuk (PSN) dengan Kejadian Demam Berdarah Dengue di Wilayah Kerja UPTD Urusan Puskesmas Kamonji (di bawah bimbingan Muh. Jusman Rau). Peminatan Epidemiologi Program Studi Kesehatan Masyarakat Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat Universitas Tadulako April 2020 Demam Berdarah Dengue merupakan masalah kesehatan yang berjangkit di daerah tropis seperti Indonesia. Kota Palu merupakan kota yang memiliki kasus DBD tertinggi di Sulawesi Tengah sebanyak 600 kasus (IR 166,2/100.000 penduduk) dan 9 orang meninggal akibat penyakit tersebut. Kejadian DBD di Puskesmas Kamonji dilaporkan berjumlah 106 kasus. Hal yang menyebabkan tingginya prevalensi DBD di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kamonji adalah lingkungan dan perilaku masyarakat. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui Risiko Faktor Lingkungan dan Upaya Pemberantasan Sarang Nyamuk di Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Kamonji. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian case-control serta sampel menggunakan teknik Total Sampling yang berjumlah 86 responden dengan perbandingan 1:1. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat pada derajat kepercayaan 95% (α=0,05) yang menunjukkan bahwa keberadaan jentik di Breeding Place (OR = 0,334) dan menguras TPA (OR=0,237) merupakan faktor protektif. Sedangkan keberadaan nyamuk di Resting Place (OR = 3,654), menutup TPA (OR = 4,032), menabur abate (OR = 3,048), dan menggunakan obat anti nyamuk (OR= 4,909) merupakan faktor risiko dari kejadian Demam Berdarah Dengue di wilayah kerja UPTD Urusan Puskesmas Kamonji. Upaya pencegahan untuk menekan kejadian DBD adalah menjalankan Upaya PSN dengan baik agar lingkungan sekitar rumah bersih dan tidak berpeluang menjadi tempat perkembangbiakan nyamuk Aedes aegypti.

    This paper  discusses the result of the study on  "traditional plant use as medicine by the Balaesang tribal community in Rano village, Balaesang, Donggala district, Central Sulawesi", Indonesia. The research  was conducted from December 2020 to March 2021. The basic data of traditional plant used by local ethnic were  collected through an in-depth interview initiated by an informed consent using a questionnaire containing open-ended questions. A snowball technique was used to obtain appropriate respondents including the village leader and traditional healers.  The results showed that there were 42 plants species (consist of 26 families)  that are used as traditional medicine by the Balaesang tribe. Some of plants were utilized  for beauty purpose, chronic diseases, skin, hypertension, gastrovascular and other diseases. The preparation method is boiled, ground, consumed directly, squeezed, smeared, and chewe

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
