Abstract

Pesticides of organophosphate type are mostly used on farming because they are easier to resolve in nature, but there was a possibility of high frequency that they were an agent that caused neurological diseases amongst farmers especially in developing countries. The factors influencing the occurrence of pesticide poisonings are internal and external factors, including age, knowledge level, work period as a sprayer, and spraying frequency. The purpose of this research is to analyze the risk factors that cause organophosphate pesticide poisonings on Chinese cabbage farmers in Semangat Village Karo Regency. The methods that are used in this research are with the observational method and cross-sectional approach, with the population of all Chinese cabbage farmers in Semangat Village Karo Regency. The taking of samples uses simple random sampling technique as much as 50 samples, the instruments that are used in this research is using Thermo Indiko for cholinesterase levels inspection and lists of questions for the farmers. The results show that there is no significant correlation between age and organophosphate pesticide poisoning on Chinese cabbage farmers (p > 0,05). Meanwhile, for other factors such as the relation between knowledge, the relation between work period as a sprayer, and the relation between spraying frequency with the level of pesticide poisoning show that there is a significant correlation (p < 0,05). Research results also show that the most dominant variable related to organophosphate pesticide poisoning on Chinese cabbage farmers is spraying frequency (p-value = 0,000 dan odds ratio = 7,707), which means that spraying frequency > 2 times a week has the opportunity of 7,707 bigger risks of organophosphate pesticide poisoning abnormality on Chinese cabbage farmers than with spraying frequency of ≤ 2 times a week

Abstract

Madu adalah cairan manis yang berasal dari nectar tanaman yang diproses oleh lebah menjadi madu dan tersimpan dalam sel-sel sarang lebah. Sejak ribuan tahun yang lalu sampai sekarang ini, madu telah dikenal sebagai salah satu bahan makanan atau minuman alami yang mempunyai peranan penting dalam kehidupan. Dalam penelitian telah dilakukan pembuatan sabun madu. Kemudian diuji beberapa parameter sabun madu meliputi tinggi busa dan pH. Sabun madu tersebut di uji aktivitasnya terhadap bakteri dengan metode DifusiAgar, menggunakan cakram kertas dengan media pertumbuhan Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) dan bakteri uji yang dipakai adalah Escherihcia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sabun madu memenuhi uji parameter sabun meliputi tinggi busa dan pH. Hasil uji aktivitas anti bakteri terhadap bakteri Escherihcia coli menunjukkan bahwa sabun madu dengan konsentrasi 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% dan 40% berturut- turut 5,93mm, 6,80mm, 7,10mm, 7,80mm, 8,40mm dengan blanko 9,96mm dan pada bakteri Staphylococcus aureus dengan konsentrasi 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% dan 40% berturut-turut 5,93mm, 6,60mm, 7,36mm, 7,96mm, 8,76mm dan blanko 9,76mm. Dari hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa sabun madu mempunyai aktivitas antibakteri.

Abstract

Lemon peel waste (Citrus limon (L.) Burm.F.) contains secondary metabolites that function as antibacterials, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and triterpenoids. This study aims to determine the formulation of antiseptic solid soap and the antibacterial activity of the ethanolic extract of the lemon peel by the diffusion method. The results showed the best formula for making antiseptic solid soap with ethanolic extract of lemon peel based on the requirements of SNI 06-4085-1996 was at a concentration of F3 (15%), homogeneous, had a pH of 8.54-9.82, foam height was around 3.5-4.7 cm, and a strong inhibition zone of about 12.48 mm. The conclusion of this study is that lemon peel has antibacterial properties that can kill the growth of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.

Abstract

Lead (Pb) is one of dangerous heavy metals that is toxic for human bodies. Lead can be found in the air in the form of air pollution which is produced by the fuel of motor vehicles. According to WHO, in 1995, the level of lead inside the human body can be divided into three levels which are, low (<10ppm), moderate (10-20 ppm), otherwise high (>20ppm) according to the category of pollution. A pedicab driver and a street vendor who frequent the street will surely very often be exposed to vehicle fumes which contains lead (Pb). This experiment is aimed to find out the level of Pb in the hair of pedicab drivers and street vendors around Kapten Muslim Street, Medan. From the overall population is randomly taken each 4 (four) hair samples from pedicab drivers and street vendors, and then continued with an examination using AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer). From the result of the experiment, overall obtained that 1 (one) out of the rest is within the high level of toxicity (20,138 ppm), and then 2 (two) within the moderate level of toxicity (10,697 - 16,69 ppm), and 5 (five) others within the low level of toxicity (0,862≈4,533 ppm). This shows that almost all pedicab drivers and street vendors around the Kapten Muslim Street, Medan are already poisoned with heavy metal, Pb, inside their bodies.

Abstract

Textile liquid waste contains organic compounds and suspended solids such as BOD, COD, and TSS, which can cause environmental pollution. This study aims to determine the levels of BOD, COD, and TSS in textile wastewater using activated charcoal from the skin of salak before and after activation with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) at a concentration of 6%.The research results that have been carried out, on the making of activated charcoal from the skin of salak have been successfully carried out and meet the requirements of SNI 06-3730-1995, obtaining 2.4% water content, 2.3% ash content, and 476 mg/L iodine absorption. FT-IR spectrum analysis activated charcoal from the skin of salak has an O-H hydroxyl group at the peak of 3817 cm-1, C=O carbonyl group at 1713 cm-1, and C-O ether group at 1175 cm-1. FT-IR spectrum analysis activated charcoal from the skin of salak has O-H hydroxyl group at the peak of 3817 cm-1, C=O carbonyl group at 1713 cm-1, and C-O ether group at 1175 cm-1. Based on SEM analysis, activated charcoal from activated skin of salak has larger pores and surface area than before activation. Based on atomic absorption spectrophotometry analysis of textile wastewater without the addition of activated charcoal, the levels of BOD were 480 mg/L, COD 650 mg/L, and TSS 470 mg/L. After the addition of unactivated activated charcoal, the levels of BOD were 120 mg/L, COD 150 mg/L, and TSS 140 mg/L. After the addition of activated charcoal, BOD levels were 60 mg/L, COD 80 mg/L, and TSS 95 mg/L.This study concludes that activated charcoal from the skin of salak can reduce, levels of BOD, COD, and TSS in textile waste and has met the requirements set out in the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of the Republic of Indonesia Number 5 of 2014.

Abstract

Kerang bulu (Anadara antiquata) merupakan salah satu jenis kerang yang hidup di dasar laut. Logam seperti Timbal (Pb) dapat masuk ke dalam tubuh kerang buluh melalui akumulasi dari pencemaran limbah industri dan kapal-kapal, karena habitat kerang terdapat pada dasar laut yang berpasir dan berlumpur. Efek Timbal (Pb) dapat menyebabkan penurunan tingkat IQ pada anak-anak, mempengaruhi sistem hemoglobin, sistem syaraf, serta menyebabkan kematian pada dosis tinggi.Untuk itu, masyarakat perlu memikirkan bagaimana cara untuk menurunkan kadar Pb baik pada sumbernya maupun pada tubuh. Salah satu cara sederhana mungkin dengan perlakuan terhadap buah jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia swingle) karena adanya kandungan asam sitrat di dalamnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah kadar Pb pada kerang buluh di daerah Aceh Singkil memenuhi SNI No.7387 Tahun 2009 yaitu <1,5 ppm, serta untuk mengetahui apakah buah jeruk nipis dapat menurunkan kadar Pb. Penelitian ini bersifat eksperimen dengan pendekatan cross sectional, dengan mengambil sampel kerang bulu di Tempat Pelelangan Ikan (TPI) Aceh Singkil. Metode yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini adalah Spektrofotometer Serapan Atom yang dilakukan di Laboratorium Balai Riset dan Standarisasi Industri (Baristand Industri) Medan. Dari hasil penelitian tersebut diperoleh bahwa kadar Pb pada kerang buluh sebelum perlakuan sebesar 0,0036. Dari hasil yang diperoleh ternyata terjadi penurunan kadar Pb pada waktu rendaman 15, 30, dan 60 menit. Diperoleh persen penurunan yang paling besar adalah 33,33%. Dilakukannya eksperimen tersebut, ternyata jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia swingle) mampu menurunkan kadar Pb pada kerang bulu. Disarankan kepada peneliti selanjutnya untuk lebih mengupayakan cara agar penurunan kadar Pb dalam kerang benar-benar bisa berkurang secara total dan dapat meneliti kadar logam lainnya seperti Cd, Hg, As dan logam lainnya pada kerang bulu dan biota laut lainnya.
