Air buangan pabrik tahu mengandung senyawa organik berupa protein, karbohidrat, minyak  dan lemak dengan konsentrasi tinggi.Sebagian besar limbah cair tahu pada Industri Rumah Tangga di Kabupaten Mamuju langsung dibuang ke badan air tanpa pengolahan terlebih dahulu.Pencemaran akibat limbah cair tahu berupa oksigen terlarut rendah, air menjadi kotor, dan bau menyengat. Salah satu cara sederhana untuk mengolah air limbahnya yaitu dengan memanfaatkan tumbuhan air. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui efektifitas metode fitoremediasi menggunakan tanaman eceng gondok dan kangkung air dalam menurunkan kadar TSS dan BOD pada limbah air tahu. Jenis penelitian adalah  penelitian eksperimen  yang menggunakan 12 bak yang terdiri dari 6 bak untuk tanaman  yaitu 3 bak tanaman eceng gondok dan 3 bak tanaman kangkung air serta 3 kolam untuk kontrol. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Laboratorium Terpadu Poltekkes Kemenkes Mamuju yang dilaksanakan pada Agustus 2018.Rancangan penelitian adalah control group pre test –post test design. Analisis yang digunakan adalah  uji  Paired Sample Test dan Wilcoxon untuk  mengetahui  kemaknaan  penurunan kadar BOD dan TSS sebelum dan sesudah dilakukan perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara konsentrasi BOD air limbah tahu sebelum dan sesudah dikontakkan tanaman Kangkung Air dan Eceng Gondok  dan tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara konsentrasi TSS air limbah tahu sebelum dan sesudah dikontakkan tanaman Eceng Gondok dan Kangkung Air.Media yang digunakan dalam metode fitoremediasi yang paling efektif adalah menggunakan tanaman Eceng Gondok (Eichhornia sp.)   KataKunci: BOD, TSS, kangkung air, eceng gondok   THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PHYTOREMEDIATION METHOD USING HYACINTH PLANT AND IPOMOEA AQUATICA IN REDUCE LEVELS OF TSS AND BOD IN TOFU INDUSTRY LIQUID WASTE   ABSTRACT Waste-water of tofu factory contains organic compounds in the form of protein, carbohydrates, oils, and fats with high concentrations. Most of the tofu liquid waste in the home industry in Mamuju Regency dispose their waste water into water bodies without processed . A simple way to process the waste water is attaching a water plant Pollution due to tofu liquid-waste in the form of low dissolved oxygen, water becomes dirty, and a pungent odor. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the phytoremediation method using the Hyacinth Plantand Ipomoea Aquatica to reduce the levels of TSS and BOD in tofu waste-water.This type of research is an experimental study that uses 9 ponds consisting of 6 ponds for plants namely 3 ponds  usinghyacinth plants and 3 ponds using ipomoea aquatic and 3 ponds for control. The research was conducted at the Integrated Laboratory of Poltekkes Kemenkes Mamuju which was conducted in August 2018. It was an experimental study with a control group pre-post test design. The analysis consisted of the Paired Sample Test and Wilcoxon test to determine the significance of decreasing BOD and TSS levels before and after treatment. Analysis showThere was a significant difference between the BOD concentrations of tofu waste-water before and after contacting Ipomoea Aquatica and Hyacinth Plant and here was no significant difference between the TSS concentrations of tofu waste-water before and after contacting the Hyacinth Plant and Ipomoea Aquatica. The most effective media in phytoremediation method was Hyacinth Plant   Keywords: BOD, TSS, hyacinth plant, ipomoea aquatica

Introduction: Indoor air quality greatly affects human health because almost 90% of human life is indoors. Some symptoms that are often felt by employees in a building with Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) are fatigue; headaches; symptoms of eye, nose and throat irritation; skin irritation; dry cough, increased irritability and difficulty in concentration; nausea; drowsiness; and hypersensitivity to odor. This research aims to determine the relationship of air quality in space to the incidence of Sick Building Syndrome. Methods: This research was an analytic survey research with cross sectional approach. The samples in this study were employees who were in the Building D of the Provincial Governor's Office, West Sulawesi totalling 82 people. This research was carried out by measuring indoor air quality and giving questionnaires to find out the SBS events. Results: The results of room temperature measurements ranged from 26.14 - 41.46°C, humidity measurement was ≥ 60%, light intensity was ≤ 100 lux, the chemical quality of CO in the air was ≤ 29 mg/m3, CO2 levelin the air was ≤ 1000 ppm, and dust level was ≥ 0.15 mg/m3. Besides, there was a significant relationship between air temperature and dust levels on the incidence of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS), with p value of 0.006. Conclusion: It can be concluded that factors that influenced the occurrence of SBS were air temperature and dust concentration in the room.Keywords: indoor air quality, office, sick building syndrome

Background: COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) is a disease caused by a new type of coronavirus, namely Sars-CoV-2, which was first reported in Wuhan, China. In Indonesia May 2020, the death toll is continuing. Globally, there were 4,170,424 cases of COVID-19 with 287,399 deaths. Citing the recap of the COVID-19 data from the West Sulawesi Provincial Health Office, as of February 6, 2021, the cumulative number of positive COVID-19 cases was 4,380, an increase of 73%. Purpose: This research is to find out the description of Waste Management of Covid-19 Patients Without Symptoms (OTG) During the Independent Isolation Period of Mamuju District. The Research Method used in this research is the descriptive research method. The location of the research was carried out in Mamuju District. The number of samples in this study was 30 respondents. The data collection technique used was interviewed using a questionnaire. Results: The results showed that there was waste management that was not by the standards. This is due to the lack of facilities in the patient's home and lack of knowledge. Conclusion: Waste management by asymptomatic Covid-19 sufferers does not meet waste processing standards. Keywords: Covid 19, isolation, waste.

Pengemasan saat ini sering menggunakan plastik dan styrofoam sebagai kemasan makanan. Pengemasan yang dilakukan saat ini dapat membahayakan konsumen, kontaminasi makanan akibat pemakaian styrofoam dapat terjadi karena hal-hal sebagai berikut: makanan atau minuman yang terlalu panas, semakin tinggi suhu makanan yang ada dalam styrofoam maka akan semakin mudah zat styrene berpindah ke makanan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk Mengetahui Perilaku Penjamah Terhadap Penggunaa Kemasan Makanan Pada Rumah Makan Di Kec.Mamuju Kab. Mamuju. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah penjamah rumah makan sebanyak 127 penjamah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pengetahuan penjamah makanan dengan kategori kurang sebesar 59,1%, sikap penjamah makanan dengan kategori positif sebesar 37,8% dan 62,2% memiliki sikap negative, tindakan penjamah 40,9% memiliki tindakan positif dan  59,1% penjamah memiliki tindakan negative. Jumlah    penjamah rumah makan sebanyak 127 orang dari sebanyak 62,2% memiliki tingkat pengetahuan yang kurang karena tidak mampu menjawab ≥ 50% dari total pertanyaan yang ada dikuisioner penjamah rumah makan, dari 127 penjamah yang di wawancarai sebanyak 62,2% sikap negatif dan sebanyak 37,8% sikap positif. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa, sikap (attitude) responden berada dalam katagori negatif terhadap penggunaan kemasan makana sebagai wadah makanan dan minuman, karena   sikap penjamah bukan saja dibentuk oleh pengetahuan penjamah namun juga dipengaruhi oleh aspek emosional, pengalaman dan kondisi lingkungan penjamah berada. Kesimpulan Gambaran pengetahuan, sikap dan tindakan penjamah terhadap penggunaan kemasan makanan pada rumah makan di Kecamatan Mamuju Kabupaten Mamuju dengan kategori kurang berdasarkan hasil penelitian.

Aedes aegypti is a vector of dengue fever. Vector density may be effect of disease incidence because of the high density and highly resistant to increase of the disease. Larvae density in an area influenced by availabiloty of kontainers. The objective of this study to determine of larvae density of Aedes aegypti mosquito in endemic and non endemic area in Mamuju District based on House Index value, Kontainer Index value, Breteau Index value, and Density Figure level. We did observasional study with cross sectional by collected data and observation to larvae density of Aedes aegypti in its kontainers. Sample size determination using simple random sampling Lemeshow formula as much as 340 in endemic area and 295 in non endemic area. Based on density figure level, endemic and non endemic area included in average category so that area potential for the occurance of infection.
