COVID-19 is a new disease that has become a pandemic. This disease should be watched out for because transmission is relatively fast, has a mortality rate that cannot be ignored, and there is no definitive therapy. After COVID 19, people will be more selective in the food they eat. The types of food chosen were those that have health benefits, especially as immunity boosters. The problem was what types of products can provide these benefits en masse, cheap, and easy to access. This review aims to explore the potential of the Moringa plant as a plant that can be a source of functional food as a post-COVID 19 immune booster. The method used was to review various journal references that discuss research results related to the use of Moringa plants and specifically those related to the anticipation of COVID 19. Based on the results of a review of various literature, it was found that the Moringa plant has various functional properties. These health functions include, among others, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anticancer, antihypertensive, antiasthmatic, antiurolithiasis, anthelmintic, anti-fertility, antihyperthyroid, and anti-Alzheimer. One of the roles of Moringa plants in dealing with COVID 19 was as an immune booster. This is important because one of the factors that cause the different severity of COVID 19 patients is immunity. People with good body immunity tend to be able to survive infection and attacks by the SARS-Cov-2. Some of the components of Moringa that play a role in this were kaempferol, pterygospermin, morphine, quercetin, and apigenin-7-O-rutinoside. Apigenin has the highest activity against SARS-Cov-2-MPro (the main protease of COVID 19). From the results of this review, it can be concluded that the Moringa plant has the potential as an immune booster against the SARS-Cov-2 (COVID 19).
Background:Development of green tea extract formulation with the addition of enhancers to increase the ability of epigallocatechin gallate to penetrate the skin layers has been done. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of green tea extract cream that containing enhancers on the profile of kidney and liver histopathology. Methods: The study used 4 groups which each group was treated with different concentrations of extract (2,0%; 2,5%; 3,0%; 3,5%) and 1 control group. After 24 hours and 14 days of application of the cream, the mice were sacrificed. The liver and kidneys were weighed and made preparations histopathology. Results: The results of the study showed that there similar (p>0,05) of the weight ratio of the liver and kidneys of Balb/c mice after 24 hours and 14 days. As well the histopathological test indicated that there similar (p>0,05) of the liver and kidneys after 24 hours and 14 days of administration of green tea extract cream. Conclusions: The levels concentration of green tea extract in cream (2,0%; 2,5%; 3,0%; 3,5%) that contain enhancers do not affect the liver and kidney histopathological of Balb/c mice. AbstrakLatar belakang: Pengembangan formulasi ekstrak teh hijau telah dilakukan dengan penambahan enhancer untuk meningkatkan kemampuan penetrasi epigalokatekin galat menembus lapisan kulit. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui pengaruh pemberian krim ekstrak teh hijau yang mengandung enhancer terhadap gambaran histopatologi ginjal dan hati mencit. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan 4 kelompok mencit galur Balb/C yang masing-masing diberikan konsentrasi ekstrak yang berbeda (2,0%; 2,5%; 3,0%; 3,5%) dan 1 kelompok kontrol. Setelah 24 jam dan 14 hari pemberian krim, mencit dikorbankan. Organ hati dan ginjal diambil untuk dibuat preparat histopatologi. Hasil: Hasil uji menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan berat hati dan ginjal mencit setelah pemberian krim selama 24 jam dan 14 hari. Demikian juga dengan gambaran hasil uji histopatologi hati dan ginjal mencit setelah pemberian krim selama 24 jam dan 14 hari. Kesimpulan: Konsentrasi ekstrak teh hijau dalam krim (2,0%; 2,5%; 3,0%; 3,5%) yang mengandung enhancer tidak mempengaruhi gambaran histopatologi hati dan ginjal mencit galur Balb/c.
This study aims to determine the differences in the number and price of sacrificial cattle sold before the pandemic and during the Covid-19 Pandemic and to analyze the market structure for sacrificial cattle in Batang Hari Regency based on the concentration of sellers. This study used a survey method by taking 50% of the total sub-districts in Batang Hari Regency. Then the data was obtained from a sample of sacrificial cattle traders who were taken by the census in the selected sub-districts. In this study seen from the concentration of sellers using the concentration ratio formula (Kr) and market share (market share). Data were analyzed using the data distribution normality test with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and the Shapiro-Wilk test. Test the difference using the Non-Parametric Test using the Kruskal Wallis Test followed by the Post Hoc Test using the Mann-Whitney Test. In conclusion, there was a difference in the number of sacrificial cattle sold by sacrificial cattle traders in Batang Hari District before the pandemic and during the Covid-19 Pandemic. There was a difference in the selling price of sacrificial cattle by cattle traders in Batang Hari District before the pandemic and during the Pandemic. Covid-19. The structure of the market for sacrificial cattle in Batang Hari Regency, based on the concentration of sellers, is an oligopoly of moderate concentration
