Determination of Chlorpyrifos and Carbofuran Pesticide Residues in Vegetables in Makassar Traditional Market

2024-04-21T10:20:45+08:00

Pesticides play a crucial role in maintaining high productivity in the agricultural industry, thus they are considered a vital component of modern agriculture. Currently, widespread pesticide use for pest control dominates agricultural production systems. However, despite their numerous benefits, pesticides are regarded as substances that can have adverse effects on both humans and the environment. Consequently, reliance on pesticides has become difficult to sustain. Environmental stability, pesticide bioaccumulation, and toxicity have placed human bodies at potential risk of diseases and poisoning. Various human health issues are associated with pesticides, ranging from short-term effects like headaches and nausea to chronic impacts such as various types of cancer, birth defects, infertility, and endocrine disorders. The objective of this research is to determine pesticide residues in food vegetable using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) methodology. This study involved analyzing pesticide residues in 16 different vegetable samples obtained from the traditional markets of Makassar City. A multi-residue analysis method was developed to detect two types of pesticides, namely, chlorpyrifos and carbofuran, using GC-MS. The test results indicated that all 16 vegetable samples (100%) did not contain any residues of chlorpyrifos and carbofuran, as per the comparison of retention times and standard molecular weights. From the results of this research it can be seen that the samples analyzed did not contain monitored pesticide residues that exceeded the maximum acceptable residue limits.

Maternal Knowledge of Toddler Nutrition with Toddler Nutrition Status at Karangdadap Health Center Pekalongan

2024-09-17T21:43:25+08:00

Toddlers aged 12-59 months are vulnerable to nutritional and health problems. This can occur because the basal metabolic rate (BMR) is higher in toddlers so that their energy needs are greater and can affect the nutritional status of stunting. In addition, inappropriate parenting patterns and methods of giving food by parents to children are one of the things that increase the risk of malnutrition. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the nutritional condition of toddlers and maternal awareness of toddler nutrition. The study, which was conducted in November and December 2023 in the working area of the Karangdadap Health Center, Pekalongan Regency, was a descriptive correlative cross-sectional study. The research sample consisted of 139 respondents or toddlers aged 12-59 years. The independent variable studied was maternal knowledge, while the dependent variable was the nutritional status of toddlers. The data processing and analysis method used in this study was the Spearman rank test. Based on the survey results, 85.7% of mothers who had sufficient information had children with normal development. There is a relationship between maternal knowledge about toddler nutrition and toddler nutritional status, with a correlation coefficient value of 0.287, indicating that the strength of the relationship is sufficient. The statistical test results obtained a p value = 0.001, thus the p value is smaller than alpha (0.05). Mother's knowledge affects the nutritional status of toddlers, therefore increasing the mother's understanding is important. It is expected that health workers should intensify counseling programs on toddler nutritional needs and motivate mothers to provide nutritional intake according to toddler needs and increase the frequency, diversity/empowerment of toddler nutrition..

Protein and Vitamin C Content of Pukis with Substitution of Red Bean Flour (Phaseoulus Vulgaris L.) and Blood Clam Flour (Anadara Granosa L.)

2024-12-07T23:46:10+08:00

Many Indonesian cake products, such as pukis cakes, generally use wheat flour as raw material even though Indonesia is not a wheat producing country. To reduce dependence on wheat flour, it is necessary to look for local substitutes for wheat flour. One way to diversify local food is making pukis cakes with the substitution of red bean flour and blood cockle flour. Efforts to overcome the problem of anemia are to increase the intake of foods rich in protein and vitamin C such as red beans and blood cockles. This research aims to determine the protein and vitamin C levels of pukis cakes with the substitution of red bean flour and blood cockle flour. This type of research is a pre-experiment using a One Shot Study Case laboratory design with concentration formulas for red bean flour and blood cockle flour respectively 95 g and 5 g, 90 g and 10 g, and 85 g and 15 g. Protein levels were tested using the micro Kjedhal method and vitamin C levels were tested using the iodometric titration method. The results of this study showed that the protein content of pukis cakes by substitution of red bean flour and blood cockle flour increased F0 and F1 by 16.64%, F1 and F2 by 3.85%, F2 and F3 7.54% and vitamin C levels of pukis cakes. Substituting red bean flour and blood cockle flour there was an increase in F0 and F1 by 24.10%, F2 and F3 by 2.14%, and a decrease in the presentation of F1 and F2 -1.71%. Future researchers are expected to conduct further research on the effect of dough storage time on the vitamin C levels of pukis cakes substituted for red bean flour and blood cockle flour. And the processing of local food ingredients can be further improved to produce products that are beneficial for health.

2024-12-11T20:34:46+08:00

Primary dysmenorrhea is a common reproductive health issue among women that can disrupt daily activities. Pharmacological treatments often cause side effects, making non-pharmacological interventions an appealing alternative. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions, such as heat therapy, yoga, exercise, acupressure, effleurage massage, and lifestyle modifications, in reducing menstrual pain. A systematic review approach was employed, analyzing 16 relevant articles. Results showed that all methods significantly reduced pain levels, with yoga and exercise yielding the greatest reduction (2.8–3 points on the VAS scale). Heat therapy, acupressure, and effleurage massage provided immediate but temporary relief. Lifestyle modifications offered long-term benefits in improving quality of life. Combining methods is recommended for optimal outcomes.
