As fermented soybean (Glycine max), tempeh has been reported as a good source of isoflavones, which have shown anticancer activities in various cancer cells resulted from their activity as phytoestrogens. In this article, the preparation of ethanolic extract of tempeh is presented and then followed by the exploration of its cytotoxic effect on T47D cells. The extract was subsequently standardized using genistein, the major phytoestrogen found in tempeh. The genistein concentration found in the extract of tempeh was 0.681 % (w/w). The cytotoxicity assay employing 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) resulted in IC 50 values of 196.066 ± 15.956 µg/mL and 13.174 ± 0.905 µg/mL for the genistein-standardized ethanolic extract of tempeh and genistein, respectively.

Context: Occupational health surveillance in India, focused on notifiable diseases, relies heavily on periodic medical examination, and isolated surveys. The opportunities to identify changes in morbidity patterns utilizing data available in workplace on-site clinics is less explored in India context. Aims: Present paper describes longitudinal assessment of morbidity patterns and trends among employees seeking care in occupation health clinic (OHC). The study also intends to explore associations between work department, clinic visits and morbidity pattern. Materials and Methods: Record-based analysis was undertaken on data available (for the period 2010-2014) from two OHCs in a leading automobile industry in India. The doctor, examining every employee, documented the provisional diagnosis in specific software which in turn provides summary diagnosis based on affected body organ system as per ICD-10 categories. This information was used to assess the morbidity pattern and trend among workers. Chi-square test of significance and Extended Mantel-Haenszel chi square test was used assess the association and its linear trend. Results: Respiratory, musculoskeletal and digestive system related diseases were the top three reasons for employees visit to OHC. The nature of morbidity varied across different departments in the industry. There was a significant increase in proportion of employees visiting OHC during 2010-2014. Conclusion: A clinic visit record, with its own strengths and limitations, provides information on morbidity pattern and its trends among workers. Such information will help plan, implement and evaluate health preventive, promotive, and curative services.
