Rapid detection of porcine and bovine gelatins in dental prophylaxis pastes using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

Objectives: To rapidly detect the presence of porcine or bovine gelatins in dental prophylaxis pastes used in Malaysia by using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Materials and methods: Four commonly used dental prophylaxis paste brands in Malaysia were collected and labelled A, B, C, and D. Pure porcine and bovine skin gelatins were used as controls. Gelatin extraction was carried out using acetone precipitation method. The extracts were then placed in the FTIR Perkin Elmer spectrometer for less than 5 minutes. All spectra were recorded within 4000 - 400 cm-I wavenumber with 4 cm-I resolution under 40 scans. The results were analysed by comparing the samples' spectra with the controls'. The data were subjected to discriminant analysis using The Spectrum ™ Software. Results: Sample A and porcine gelatin spectra had similar peak at 2163 cm-I while sample B showed similarity to bovine gelatin at the range of 4000 - 2000 cm-I. Detailed analysis of the spectrum patterns of sample C in the area between 1600-1400 cm-I and 3600-2800 cm-I indicated an appearance of similar peaks to porcine gelatin. On the other hand, the spectrum of sample D at the range of 1800-1200 ern -I was similar to that of bovine gelatin. Conclusion: Bovine and porcine gelatins in dental prophylaxis paste can be rapidly detected using FTIR. Keywords: porcine gelatin, bovine gelatin, FTIR

Synchronization of Sputum Conversion and Resolution of Intensive Phase Lesion Areas on Thorax X-rays Determinants of Prognosis for Pulmonary Tuberculosis Therapy

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Diagnosis of TB can be confirmed in two ways, namely bacteriological diagnosis (if AFB sputum is found (+) and clinical diagnosis is (if BTA sputum is found (-), but chest X-ray is (+) TB). Objective: to determine the alignment of sputum conversion and extensive resolution of intensive phase lesions on chest radiographs which determine the prognosis of pulmonary TB therapy. Methods: The study design was a retrospective cohort analytic with a retrospective longitudinal study design. Data from medical records of pulmonary TB patients who have undergone therapy for six months or more at the Pulmonary Polyclinic RSI Jemursari Surabaya. The number of samples was 48 patients aged 41-60 years. All of these pulmonary TB patients were smear positive (BTA+). X-ray examination was done before and after therapy. Results: analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank test to assess differences in the grade of lung lesions before and after therapy, obtained p = 0.003 (p <0.05) meaning there is a significant difference. Sputum conversion was also carried out after therapy, 89.6% of TB patients in this study experienced sputum conversion (BTA negative). To determine the alignment of sputum conversion with the resolution of lesion area, Kappa coefficient analysis K=0.033 (p>0.05) was performed with the results of 50% of patients, 47.9% showed improvement in lung lesions and sputum conversion, while 2.1% showed no improvement of lung lesions and no sputum conversion. The rest, 50% showed no congruence in the results of lung lesion repair and sputum conversion. Conclusion: The results of Kappa coefficient analysis showed that K=-0.110 (p>0.05) showed that there was no congruence between the results of chest x-ray examination of lung lesions before and after therapy (improved or not) with sputum conversion
