Candida albicans is a member of the normal flora found in the mocous membranes, digestive tract, respiratory tract, urethera, vagina, skin and nails of the hands and feet. Candida albicans can grow at various pH levels, but generally, growth will be better at a pH between 4,5-6,5. The type of research used qualitative descriptive research. This research aimed to detect Candida albicans fungus in the urine of women inmates at the Sungguminasa Class IIA Women’s Penitentiary with symptoms vaginal discharge. Reproductive health problems in women that need attention are reproductive tract infections, one of which is vaginal discharge. 75% of women in the world have experienced vaginal discharge at least once in their lifetime. This research was conducted at the Sungguminasa Class IIA Women’s Prison. The samples were taken from 11 respondents in the form of the urine of the women who were experiencing vaginal discharge, then inoculated on SDA media which had been added with chloramphenicol and then incubated at 37^oC for 7 days. The results was a ccolony that had the characteristics of Candida albicans fungus based on macroscopic observations, namely round shape, white cream color, and soft texture. Slightly wrinkled in old colonies, the surface was raised and there was a characteristic yeast smell. Determination of microsopic morphology. Colony preparations were made using gram staining and then observed under a microscope with 10x10 magnification. The research results showed that 6 samples were positive for c. albicans, and 5 samples were negative for C. albicans.

Patients with chronic kidney disease have lower levels of hemoglobin, which causes them to become weak, easily tired, unproductive, and have a lower quality of life in their daily activities. According to the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) several things that can affect the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease are anemia with measuring hemoglobin levels so that managements is needed to achieve a good quality of life. The hemoglobin level of patients with chronic renal disease is low, this condition allows for clinical disturbances that affect quality of life. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between quality of life of chronic kidney disease patient dan hemoglobin at Prodia Indramayu. The research method used was observational analytic with a cross-sectional approach. The sample size in this study were 30 patients at Prodia Indramayu who has experienced chronic kidney disease and underwent hemodialysis for at least 6 months. The research was conducted from January – March 2023. Quality of life was measured using the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire and hemoglobin results were obtained from secondary data from patient laboratory results. The results of the study obtained statistical data analysis using the Spearman test showing p value > 0.05, Sig.(2-tailed) 0.214>0.005, it can be concluded that there is no significant correlation between hemoglobin levels and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Worms are a disease caused by intestinal parasitic worms with a fairly high prevalence and spread throughout Indonesia. Intestinal worm infections are a chronic infection that mostly attacks children under five and elementary school age children. The aim of this research is to determine whether there are worms in children's feces at Pa'bentengan landfill using the centrifuge floatation method. The benefit of this research is to increase knowledge about worms and how important it is to maintain cleanliness in preventing worm infections. This research was conducted at Megarezky University. 20 Stool samples were taken at Pa'bentengan Gowa TPA. The research samples were then carried out using the Centrifuge Floatation method, the screening examination was continued by observing using a microscope with 10x, 40x magnification. Based on the research results, 13 samples were positive for worms and 7 samples were negatiffor worms. Having personal hygiene and a dirty living environment makes it possible for someone to be infected with worm

Uji kepekaan antibiotik kanamisin terhadap isolat klinis Mycobacterium tuberculosis menggunakan metode mycobacterium growth indicator tube (MGIT) 960

Agung Nicky Triawan, Sulfiani, Subair — Sat, 03 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that is a major cause of ill health and one of the main causes of death throughout the world. TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, this disease usually attacks the lumgs but it can also attack other parts of the body. Kanamycin is one of the main second-line drugs for the traetment of tuberculosis. The patients suffering from tuberculosis are caused by multing-resistent strains with resistence to anti-tuberculosis drugs. Kanamycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that works to inhibit the protein synthesis process of microorganisms. This research aimed to determine the sensitivity of the antibiotic kanamycin to clinical isolates of TB by using the Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) 960 method. The type of reaserch used descriptive with an experimental method which aimed to test the sensitivity of the antibiotic kanamycin to clinical isolates of Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) 960. From the results of reaserch conducted on 20 (100%) samples, 4 (20%) samplesm were resistent, and 16 (18%) samples sensitive. This proves that the antibiotic kanamycin is stil suitable for use because the examinations results obtained showed that the antibiotic was still sensitive in some respondents who used the amtibiotic.

Oca Mareta, Herry Hermansyah, Karneli — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Aedes aegypti mosquito is a competent vector for transmitting dengue fever which can live and reproduce in temporary water reservoirs such as drums, buckets, cans, tires, bottles and barrels such as those in the Sukawinatan TPA area RT.68 RW.10. This research aims to determine the density level of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae in the Sukawinatan TPA area in 2023. This research is quantitative descriptive and uses primary data from a total sampling of 84 families at RT.68 RW.10 Sukawinatan TPA. The results show the level of density of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae based on HI 28.57%, CI 10.85%, BI 48.81%, and larvae free rate 71.43%, DF obtained HI 5 (medium density), CI 4 (medium density). medium), and BI 5 (medium density). The HI, CI, BI, ABJ, and DF values are still below the 2005 WHO standard, which means that the transmission of the Aedes aegypi mosquito is high. It is hoped that this research data can become a benchmark for evaluating the vector control program in the Sukawitan area, especially in TPA RT.68 RW.10, this can be anticipated by carrying out the PSN 3M Plus movement periodically which can be carried out by the community.

River water is potentially unsafe and polluted, which can cause serious infections. Waterborne infections are a major cause of global mortality and morbidity. In cases of diarrhea, this research aims to identify the types of parasitic protozoa and their distribution in waterways in Japan and Indonesia. This research reviews literature by collecting data from various sources, such as books, national and international scientific journals. The articles analyzed are original articles relating to protozoa in river water from both countries. In Japan, protozoa such as Henneguya were found in the Omoi River and Cryptosporidium parvum in several rivers in Hokkaido. In Indonesia, species such as Codonellopsis sp., Favella sp., Tintinnopsis sp., and Codonella sp. are found. in Sorong Regency, as well as various other types in West Bandung, Central Sulawesi and South Kalimantan. The diversity and distribution of protozoa is influenced by water quality, physical conditions, water chemistry, and human activities. This research can provide information regarding protozoa which can act as bioindicators of water quality. The presence and diversity of protozoa can provide an indication of the health condition of aquatic ecosystems. As a result, conservation efforts and management of aquatic ecosystems can be improved.
