Pengaruh Pendidikan Kesehatan Terhadap Perilaku Melakukan Sadari Pada Wanita Usia Subur: Literature Review

Introduction: Breast cancer is a malignant disease in women where the mortality rate of sufferers increases every year. The importance of early detection steps to help women overcome these problems, one of them by doing breast self-examination (Breast Self-Examination) Behavior of a person to do breast self-examination is basically different, this is influenced by several factors, one of which is knowledge. Objective: This literature review aims to determine the effect of health education on the behavior of women of childbearing age in conducting BSE actions. Methods: Search for articles using an electronic database that is google schoolar, Science Direct, and Pubmed. Keywords used in Indonesian and English are "women", "BSE health education", "Women", and "Health Promotion Breast Self-Examination". The article search results were found on the Google Scholar website of 3,090, Science Direct 4,875 results, and PubMed 224 results. The articles were then sorted according to topic so that 8 research articles were collected which were considered to be representative of all research articles on women and BSE health education. Results: It was found that BSE health education can reduce the risk of breast cancer and improve the quality of health promotion in women. Conclusions and Recommendations: this study provides valid evidence that health education influences the behavior of women to make breast self-examination. Further studies related to health education can be done in more depth about which actions are most effective in increasing behavior in doing breast self-examination

Primer concentration and Pre-denaturation Time Effect on cyt-K Bacillus cereus Detection using Real-Time PCR Method

Foodborne disease is a global threat that can affect all sections of society, both in developed or developing countries. Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive bacteria that can cause food poisoning disease in humans. [2] Real-Time PCR detection method is one of the molecular marker methods that has been widely recognized as a fast, reliable, sensitive and specific detection tool for detecting pathogenic bacteria. In previous studies, the optimum condition and formulas applied for cyt-K 2 primer pairs have been obtained using Real-Time PCR. The purpose of this study is to find out the best conditions work of the primer pair cyt-K Bacillus cereus on detecting bacteria target using variations of pre-denaturation time and primer concentration with Real-Time PCR method. The annealing temperature used for PCR is at 60°C with sample concentration 50 ng/µL of B. cereus. Real-time PCR detection of variations in pre-denaturation time and primer concentration obtained the best conditions for primer pair cyt-K work at minute 4 with a primer concentration of 10 pmol and successfully amplifying the target by producing a Ct value of B. cereus at 13.04. Based on the results of the study, the primer pair cyt-K were reproducible in detecting the target gene and in the further step, this research can be continued to developed a prototype detection kit for foodborne pathogen bacteria using Real-Time PCR method

Incorporation of lipid nanosystems containing omega‑3 fatty acids and resveratrol in textile substrates for wound healing and anti‑inflammatory applications

In the present work, lipid nanosystems containing omega-3 fatty acid (nanostructured lipid carriers, NLCs) or omega-3 fatty acid and resveratrol (liposomes) were developed to improve cotton textile substrates as dressings with anti-inflammatory properties for wound healing applications. Lipid nanosystems were incorporated into woven, non-woven and knitted cotton substrates by exhaustion and impregnation. Based on physical–chemical characterization of the textile substrates, the textile structure and type of lipid nanosystems dictated the adsorption efficiency. In the case of NLCs, the woven substrate functionalized by exhaustion had a higher omega-3 release being the most promising for wound dressing application. Whereas for liposomes, the most adequate textile was the cationized knitted fabric functionalized by impregnation, that showed a more prolonged release profile of resveratrol.This work is financed by Project UID/CTM/00264/2019 of 2C2T - Centro de Ciencia e Tecnologia Textil, funded by National Founds through FCT/MCTES.

Pengukuran Kinerja Bank Komersial dengan Pendekatan Efisiensi: Studi terhadap Perbankan Go Public di Indonesia

The study applies non-parametric analytical technique, i.e. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as performance measures of commercial banking in Indonesia. The study observes efficiency of commercial banks listed in the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) by using suggested financial efficiency ratios for the period of 2002-2004. The approach and technique proposed set of empirical references by comparing operating efficiency of commercial banks listed in the JSX. The study departs from previous studies on measures of bank performance through the use of traditional ratios for banking institutions as the output measures and without using the input measures. The proposed model was also compared to the well-known input-output analysis and simple ratio analysis. The study found that, among commercial banks listed in the JSX during 2002-2004 only 11.8% operates in an efficiently manner. As such, the study reveals that the DEA analysis could be used as either alternative or complementary measures to conventional ratio analysis to evaluate organizational performance, particularly in banking organization
