Pediculosis is a disease caused by Pediculus humanus capitis de Geer or often called head lice which is an obligate ectoparasite in the human head. The prevalence of pediculosis is quite high and there are reports of resistance and negative side effects regarding the use of synthetic pediculosides trigger research and development of vegetable pediculosides. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the formula of pediculoside with active ingredients of essential oils on head lice mortality in vitro. The study was conducted by testing 3 formulas with variations in the composition of essential oils made from cassava oil, fennel oil, lemon oil, water and vegetable glycerine. Comparison of the ingredients in formula A is 10%, 10%, 5%, 50% and 20%; formula B is 5%, 15%, 5%, 50% and 20%; while formula C is 15%, 5%, 5%, 50% and 20%. The test method is an experiment with a completely randomized design. The test is done by placing 10 adult head lice on filter paper which has been saturated with a formula made in a petri dish. Mortality of head lice is observed based on time. Test results data will be compared with negative controls and positive controls in the form of testing using permethrin-active pediculoside drugs. The results showed that the pediculoside formula A, B and C had a high mortality rate which caused 100% of the deaths of head lice tested in less than 5 minutes. Statistically there is a significance to the results of testing formulas A, B, and C when compared to controls. Based on the results of multiple statistical statistics, it was found that formula C was the most effective as a pediculoside formula

Tanaman pala merupakan tanaman khas Indonesia sering dimanfaatkan masyarakat sebagai bumbu masak dan manisan khususnya bagian daging buahnya. Namun seiring kemajuan teknologi, pala banyak dikembangkan sebagai obat herbal yang berpotensi sebagai antibakteri seperti Escherichia coli. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi antibakteri ekstrak etil asetat daging buah dan daun pala terhadap Escherichia coli Sampel yang digunakan yaitu buah dan daun pala dengan teknik sampling yaitu purposive. Metode yang digunakan yaitu Kirby Bauer dan variasi ekstrak etil asetat daging buah dan daun pala yang digunakan yaitu 60%-100%. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak etil asetat daging buah pala memiliki aktivitas antibakteri 1,5 kali lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan bagian daun. Abstrak Info Artikel ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF FLASH AND LEAD OF NUTMEG (MYRISTICA FRAGRANS) TO ESCHERICHIA COLINutmeg plant is a typical Indonesian plant that is often used as a condiment of cooking and confectionery, especially the flesh of the fruit. But as advances in technology, nutmeg is widely developed as a potent antibacterial herb as Escherichia coli. The aims of this study is to compare the antibacterial sensitivity of ethyl acetate extract of flesh and nutmeg leaves to Escherichia coli Samples used are fruit and nutmeg leaves with sampling technique is purposive. The method used is Kirby Bauer and the variation of ethyl acetate extract of the flesh and nutmeg leaves used is 60% -100%. The results showed that antibacterial of an ethyl acetate extract of flesh was 1,5 higher than nutmeg leaves. Abstract ©2018, Poltekkes Kemenkes PontianakAlamat korespondensi :

Escherichia coli merupakan flora normal didalam usus manusia dan akan menimbulkan penyakit bila masuk kedalam organ atau jaringan lain, Escherichia coli dapat mencemari makanan melalui udara dan lalat sebagai vektor yang hinggap pada cincau hitam saat dijual. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi bakteri Escherichia coli pada cincau hitam yang dijual di Pasar Cikurubuk Tasikmalaya. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode deskriptif yaitu mengidentifikasi Escherichia coli dengan cara uji biokimia. Dari hasil penelitian diperoleh positif adanya bakteri Escherichia coli sebanyak 1 sampel cincau hitam dengan persentase hasil (16,66%) yaitu dari pedagang 2, sedangkan yang tidak terdapat bakteri Escherichia coli sebanyak 5 sampel cincau hitam dengan persentase hasil (83,33%) yaitu dari pedagang 1, 3, 4, 5 dan 6. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa terdapat pencemaran bakteri Escherichia coli pada cincau hitam yang dijual di Pasar Cikurubuk Tasikmalya. Kata kunci: Bakteri Escherichia coli, cincau hitam, uji biokimia.

One of durian parts is its rind which contains essential oil, flavonoid, saponin, cellulose, lignin, as well as 11 starch content. Those content can be used as a larvacide against Aedes aegypti larvae. The aim of this research is to analysis LC50 of durian rind extract to mortality of Aedes aegypti larvae. In this research, we used the experimental method. Aedes agypti larvae are 440 larvae instar III divided into 12 groups which are negative control, positive control, durian rind extract with a concentration of 1%-10%. To identified the influence of durian rind extract to mortality of Aedes Aegypti larvae, data were analyzed using Probit Analysis with the program IBM SPSS Statistic 21.0. On the Probit Analysis, durian rind extract that could kill larvae 50% (LC50) is at concentration 7,76%. Based on that analysis, durian (Durio zibethinus murr) rind extract has an influence to mortality of Aedes aegypti larvae.

Vision is one of the factors that are very supportive in our daily lives; vision can be achieved well through the eye. It consists of various parts which are support each other if there is a disturbance in one part, the eye function will not work properly. One of the causes of eye disorders is the occurrence of turbidity in the part of the eye lens which is commonly called cataract. Cataracts can occur due to an increase in high blood glucose levels and the accumulation of one component of glucose (sorbitol) in the area of the lens. Research has been carried out on the description of blood glucose levels in cataract patients at the Cicendo Eye Hospital in Bandung on June 5 - June 8, 2017. The purpose of the research is to find out the blood glucose description in cataract patients. The method of the research is a descriptive. The examination performed by using fasting blood glucose parameters on 36 cataract patients as respondents. Based on the results of the research, 2.7% had low blood glucose levels, 47.3% had normal blood glucose, and 50% had high blood glucose levels.
