PENGETAHUAN PEMANFAATAN TUMBUHAN SECARA TRADISIONAL DI SUKU KULAWI, SULAWESI TENGAH

Knowledge of the traditional use of plants has been passed down from generation to generation by the Kulawi ethnic community in Salua village, Central Sulawesi. In this study, we document community knowledge about the effect of plants as medicinal plants, traditional ceremonies, food/drinks, and building materials. Based on the results of interviews and exploration, the plant that collected 25 species was found with local names, parts used, and how to use them. A total of 18 species can used as medicinal plants, five species for food/drink, one species for building materials, and three for traditional ceremonies. Our study recommends ex-situ management of natural resources so that plants can used sustainably

Formulation and Antibacterial Activity of Bidara (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk.) Leaf Toothpaste Against Streptococcus mutans

Bidara (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk.) is a native plant of Central Asia that has been widely cultivated in Indonesia. Bidara leaves contain many flavonoids, polyphenolic hydrolysable tannins, triterpenoids, sterols, and alkaloids. Bidara has potential as an antibacterial and has been widely used. The antibacterial activities of Bidara are used to formulate toothpaste against bacteria in the mouth. The study aimed to formulate a toothpaste from bidara leaves that have good physical stability and can be against Streptococcus mutans which causes dental plaque. This type of research is an experimental laboratory using the maceration method and formulated into toothpaste. After that, the physical stability of the toothpaste was tested, and antibacterial activity against S. mutans using the agar diffusion method. Bidara leaves can be used to formulate toothpaste against S. mutans bacteria. The research produced a toothpaste formula from Bidara leaf extract. Formula III is the best formula based on physical stability tests and Streptococcus mutans anti-bacterial tests

Tingkat Pengetahuan Pasien Rawat Inap Tentang Penggunaan Antibiotik di Rumah Sakit X Kota Palopo

Antibiotics are the drugs most widely used in infections caused by bacteria where oral route antibiotics are the first choice in infection therapy. Various studies have found that around 40-62% of antibiotics are used inappropriately, including for diseases that actually do not require antibiotics. The problem that often occurs is the lack of knowledge of inpatients about the proper use of antibiotics. This research was conducted to determine the level of knowledge of inpatients about the use of antibiotics, using a cross sectional descriptive method. Data was taken secondary through filling out a questionnaire. A total of 92 inpatients at x Hospital in Palopo City were selected as volunteers using the accidental sampling method. Data was processed using the Statistical Product and Servicer Solution (SPSS) application with the chi-square test. The results obtained from 92 respondents, as many as 16.3% of respondents had a low level of knowledge, 56.5% of respondents had a sufficient level of knowledge and 27.2% of respondents had a high level of knowledge. There is a relationship between the last level of education (p value 0.000 0.05), with the level of knowledge in using antibiotics.

Pharmaceutical aspects consisted of: dosage form 69,61%, dosage strength 57,66%, drug stability 100% and incompatibility 100%. It can be concluded that the prescription in CS Farma Pharmacy on June-December 2018 was not complete administratively and pharmaceutically yet, based on Permenkes No.73 In 2016

Burnout – An Exponential Rise

Mental health at workplaces has taken a new dimension since the pandemic spread across the world. This research paper is an exploratory paper to understand the impact of COVID-19 on workplaces and their employees in the context of mental health. The pandemic highlighted the need to look at human beings as a whole self. Mental health became a reality as felt in waves of the Great Resignation movement. Burnout was experienced by many employees who were working already in high-pressure jobs pre-COVID. This study explores the impact of pandemic on health care workers (HCW) in hospitals and academics working in the tertiary sector in Australia. This is a qualitative study based on secondary research and partly based on the lived experience of the author. This paper delves into the causes of workplace stress and its impact on well-being of the workforce. Some strategies for managing these issues are recommended. Limitations of the paper include limited research and only two industry sectors in Australia are explored as part of this research

Formulasi, Uji Stabilitas Fisik dan Uji Aktifitas Sediaan Gel Hand Sanitizer dari Air Perasan Buah Jeruk Nipis (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle) Berbasis Karbomer

Telah dilakukan Formulasi sediaan gel hand sanitizer dari air perasan buah jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle) dan uji aktifitasnya terhadap beberapa bakteri uji seperti Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans dan Salmonella thyposa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui stabilitas fisik sediaan gel hand sanitizer dari air perasan buah jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle) dan aktifitasnya terhadap beberapa bakteri uji seperti Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans dan Salmonella thyposa. Buah jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle) yang diperoleh dicuci bersih lalu dipotong kemudian diperas lalu disaring. Air perasan kemudian dibuat gel dengan variasi konsentrasi basis karbopol 940 0,5%, 1% dan 1,5%.
