Aflatoksin: Aspek kesehatan, metode reduksi dan deteksinya

Food contaminant aflatoxin is a mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus. This article aims to discover the pathophysiological, immunological, pharmacological, toxicity, and reduction and detection methods of aflatoxin. Kinds of literature were obtained from Research Gate, Pubmed, and Science Direct with the primary keyword “aflatoxin”. Pathophysiologically, aflatoxin-contaminated food has been proven to cause necrosis in liver cells, developing into liver cancer. Immunologically, aflatoxin decreases monocyte and dendritic cell phagocytosis, neutrophil cell ATP production, and pro-inflammatory cytokine synthesis. Aflatoxin toxicity is at the LD50 of 12-16 mg/kg b.w, causing death. Pharmacologically, 120-201 µg/kg b.w causes aflatoxicosis, in vivo studies indicated that NovaSil, Sulfarophan, and Monanthotaxis caffra leaf extract may reduce its toxicity. Aflatoxins are highly thermostable; hence, once food has been contaminated, they cannot be destroyed by normal cooking process. The control and reduction should be conducted in post-harvest handling, common physical means practiced are heating, drying, and smoking. Chemically using ozone, 0.5 sodium bisulfate, 1% sodium hydroxide, 5% acetic acid, and prochloraz. Biologically using Flavobacterium aurantiacum B-184, Bacillus velezensis DY3108, and, a consortium of Geobacillus and Tepidimicrobium bacteria. Aflatoxin can be detected using TLC, HPLC, MS, ELISA, and UHPLC-ESI MS/MS. The prevention of aflatoxin occurrence is done through good post-harvest handling, good manufacturing practices, and applying regulations accordingly to ensure food products and feed are at acceptable levels of aflatoxin

Skrining Fitokimia dan Uji Aktivitas Antibakteri Madu Putih Sumbawa terhadap Bacillus megaterium

Bacillus megaterium is a bacteria that causes human infections, causing keratitis, skin infections, brain abscesses and tissue infections. Treatment often uses chemical antibiotics. However, long-term antibiotics can cause new health problems such as resistance. Therefore, antibacterial ingredients are needed that can not only inhibit the growth of bacteria but also do not have a negative impact on health such as honey. Honey is thick, it can cure various diseases such as gastrointestinal, stomach, skin diseases, acute respiratory infections and coughs. This research aims to determine the ability of Sumbawa white honey as an antibacterial against B. megaterium. The method used in this research is paper disc diffusion. There were five treatments used in this study, between 100%, 75% and 25% honey concentrations, DMSO negative control and chloramphenicol positive control with five replications each. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that the 100% concentration had an inhibitory zone diameter of 2.59 mm, then the 75% concentration was 1.46 while the 25% concentration was 0 mm. When compared with positive control, white honey was lower antibacterial. If it is in the white honey category, the inhibition zone category is included in the lower category.Bacillus megaterium adalah bakteri yang dilaporkan menginfeksi manusia. Infeksi akibat B. megaterium masih jarang terjadi, karena hanya lima kasus yang dilaporkan di dunia, namun bila terjadi infeksi, bakteri tersebut dapat menjadi masalah kesehatan yang serius. Penanganan medis penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh bakteri biasanya dengan meminum obat yang mengandung antibiotik yang tepat dan mengobati antiseptik dengan baik. Namun penggunaan obat antibiotik dalam jangka panjang dapat menimbulkan masalah baru bagi kesehatan seperti gangguan fungsi hati, penurunan jumlah sel darah putih, munculnya alergi dan resistensi (Doron, S; Gorbach, 2020). Oleh karena itu diperlukan antibakteri yang tidak hanya dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri tetapi juga tidak berdampak negatif bagi kesehatan yaitu dengan menggunakan bahan-bahan alami salah satunya dengan pemberian madu. Madu adalah cairan kental berasa manis yang dihasilkan lebah dari nektar bunga dan diduga berkhasiat untuk menyembuhkan berbagai penyakit, seperti saluran pencernaan, lambung, penyakit kulit, infeksi saluran pernapasan akut, dan batuk, serta gangguan mata. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kemampuan madu putih Sumbawa sebagai antibakteri terhadap B. megaterium. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode difusi cakram kertas. Terdapat lima perlakuan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini antara madu konsentrasi 100%, 75% dan 25%, kontrol DMSO negatif dan kontrol positif kloramfenikol dengan masing-masing lima ulangan. Hasil uji aktivitas antibakteri menunjukkan konsentrasi 100% diameter zona hambat sebesar 2,59 mm, kemudian 75% sebesar 1,46 sedangkan konsentrasi 25% sebesar 0 mm. Jika dibandingkan dengan kontrol positif, madu putih lebih rendah dengan perbandingan 1:10. Jika dalam kategori madu putih, maka kategori zona hambat termasuk dalam kategori renda
