ANALYSIS OF IODINE CONTENT IN SEAWEED AND ESTIMATION OF IODINE INTAKE

ABSTRACTSeaweed has become food the most popular in many Asian countries because apart from has a distinctive taste, seaweeds having the mineral content needed by the body. Seaweed iodine containing minerals being obtained from sea water, who was one of micro nonmetallic minerals which is very much needed by the body. Lack of iodine can cause cretinism, hyacinth, and the production of hormone low ( hypothyroidism due to enlargement the thyroid gland. Excess intake iodine also can cause an impairment of health. Recommendations intake iodine per day of by 0.15 mg/day. The purpose of this research to know the iodine on seaweed (seaweed ) in the village Punaga sub district Mangarabombang district Takalar. The kind of research laboratory this is a observation to technique quantitative analysis. Technique the sample collection in purposive sampling as many as 5 samples. Next sample each in destructor dry then examined in of the spectrophotometer Uv-visible at wavelengths 463,9 nm. Based on research results obtained levels of iodine on seaweed (seaweed ) are 1.72 µg/g, 1.92 µg/g, 1.73 µg/g, 1.94 µg/g, and 1.89 µg/g it shows that seaweed has any iodine high

Study of Electrolyte Levels in Diabetic Patients

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder / disease characterized by high blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia) with changes in carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism in the body due to disruption in insulin action, insulin secretion or both. These metabolic changes affect the concentration of electrolytes. Electrolytes contained in the body play an important role in many body processes, such as controlling fluid levels, acid base balance (pH), nerve conduction, blood clotting and muscle contraction. Sodium, potassium and chloride are the most common macroelectrolytes and correlate with diabetes mellitus. In this study, we examined the prevalence of diabetes and its relationship to electrolyte concentrations in 28 subjects, divided into two groups: group A consisted of 14 diabetic patients in Labuang Baji Hospital and group B consisting of 14 non-diabetic subjects. The results of the research conducted showed that serum electrolyte levels (Na +, K +, Cl-) for the control were all in the normal range. In contrast, serum electrolyte (Na +, Cl-) levels have two patients who have Na + electrolyte levels below the normal range. 

GANGGUAN DISLIPIDEMIA PADA PASIEN DIABETES MELLITUS

Dyslipidemia in diabetics is characterized by an increase in fasting triglyceride levels, postprandial blood glucose, lowHDL cholesterol, increased LDL cholesterol and dominance of small dense LDL particles. In this study, we examined theprevalence of diabetes and its relationship to lipid profiles with cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL parameters in 28subjects, divided into two groups: group A consisted of 14 diabetes patients at Labuang Baji Hospital and group Bconsisted of 14 non diabetic subjects. These results indicate the number of diabetic patients with cholesterol < 200 mg/dLis 14.28%. The ratio of patients with triglyceride levels of < 150 mg/dL is 28.57%, patients with HDL levels between 40-60 mg/dL are 42.85% and patients with LDL levels < 130 mg/dL is 14.28%. It was concluded that there were higherlevels of cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL levels in patients with poor glycemic control compared to control subjectswho were not patients with diabetes mellitus

METODE SEDERHANA UNTUK MENDETEKSI KERACUNAN ALKOHOL DALAM SALIVA

Intoksikasi alkohol dalam tubuh dapat menyebabkan gangguan visual, gangguan neurologis, gagal ginjal akut, gangguan paru-paru, gangguan jantung, asidosis metabolik, dan kematian.  Diagnosis pasti dari keracunan alkohol umumnya didasarkan pada deteksi alkohol atau metabolitnya dalam darah. Diagnosis dini sangat penting, karena memulai pengobatan yang tepat dapat secara nyata mengurangi morbiditas dan mortalitasnya. Saat ini deteksi alkohol dalam cairan tubuh disimpulkan dari pengukurannya dalam darah. Pengukuran ini sering dilakukan oleh analis kesehatan di laboratorium khusus dengan menggunakan peralatan mahal, dan penundaan yang lama antara mendapatkan spesimen dan mendapatkan hasilnya. Pada penelitian ini, akan dilakukan metode sederhana dengan menggunakan kalium dikromat sebagai pereaksi dalam alkohol dalam air liur pada subjek yang diduga keracunan saliva. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan pereaksi kalium bikromat merupakan metode yang praktis, cepat, murah dan mudah diinterpretasikan dan dapat digunakan untuk memprediksi adanya alkohol dalam darah melalui air liur. Pada semua jenis subjek yang dicurigai keracunan alkohol terdapat 8 sampel saliva yang positif mengandung alkohol dari perubahan warna yang sesuai dengan kontrol positif dengan konsentrasi 0.02% warna hijau dan 0.1% warna hijau kebiruan. Penelitian ini dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai pilihan untuk menentukan konsentrasi alkohol dalam darah di tempat kejadian perkara dan juga dalam kasus postmortem untuk forensik

Analisis Kadar Sianida Pada Rebung Berdasarkan Volume Ukuran Dari Kecamatan Bajeng Kabupaten Gowa

Bamboo shoots are young shoots from bamboo Terubus. Bamboo shoots contain cyanide if consumed can cause shortness of breath, decreased blood pressure, rapid pulse, headache, nausea, diarrhea, mental disorders and seizures. Continuous consumption with low doses causes mumps and dwarfism and neurological diseases. This study aims to determine how much cyanide levels in bamboo shoots and this type of research is a descriptive laboratory experiment. The sample used in this study were 3 samples based on the size of the volume. The sampling technique is by means of purposive sampling that is looking at the criteria based on large, medium and small size types. Analysis of cyanide levels was obtained by UV-Vis Spectrophotometer with a wavelength of 582 nm. The results showed that large size bamboo shoots were height = 27 cm; diameter = 16 cm has a cyanide content of 21.84 mg/kg, medium size were height = 18 cm; diameter = 7 cm has a cyanide content of 18.40 mg / kg and a small size of height = 8 cm; diameter = 4 cm has cyanide content of 4.65 mg/kg. Thus it can be concluded that the greater the size of bamboo shoots have height level of cyanide

Suspension Stability and Characterization of Chitosan Nanoparticle–Coated Ketoprofen Based on Surfactants Oleic Acid and Poloxamer 188

In this research, ketoprofen was used as a drug model in the preparation of chitosan nanoparticles as a potential drug delivery system through the ionic gelation process with tripolyphosphate (TPP). The particle size analysis (PSA) revealed that the average particle size, polydispersity index (PI), and entrapment efficiency of chitosan nanoparticles prepared with oleic acid were 253.7 nm and 0.375 with drug entrapment efficiency of 73.30%. Those prepared with poloxamer 188 were 242.94 nm and 0.302 with drug entrapment efficiency of 87.89%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis showed that the shapes of the nanoparticles, both prepared with oleic acid and poloxamer 188, were intact and spherical. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated several differences between the spectra of chitosan- and ketoprofen-loaded chitosan nanoparticles; for example, a new peak at the wavenumber 1409/cm indicated the presence of electrostatic interaction between the carboxyl group of ketoprofen and the amino group of chitosan. The chitosan nanoparticle suspension prepared with poloxamer 188 showed smaller increases in turbidity and viscosity than that prepared with oleic acid after 34 d of storage
