“…Porosity is closely related to permeability, high porosity in sand grains will lead to high permeability, hence the permeability result ranges between 0.027 and 0.432 cm/s ( Table 5 ). Such a high permeability rate aligns with the initial works of Fineza et al. (2014) , and is not suitable for the safe sitting of a cemetery because of the immediate environment.…”

“…But most of the groundwater wells were above the limit and the highest mean values were observed in groundwater wells in Thimbirigasyaya (2), Moratuwa (5), and Kesbewa (9) DSDs. The reasons might be due to high urban runoff and sewage seepage from built-up areas (Fineza et al, 2014). Sewage and industrial contamination were detected through BOD and COD values.…”

Management of groundwater quality is becoming a key feature of a sustainable future while implementing sustainable development goals which are given by United Nations. During past decades, rapid land-use changes, urbanization, and population expansion are highly influenced the groundwater quality. To provide policymakers and water managers with reliable information on groundwater quality is a challenge to achieving sustainable development goals in developing countries. Therefore, this study intended to assess the spatial variability of groundwater quality using selected physicochemical parameters at the 39 available groundwater wells during the southwest monsoon period. Spatial variability is explained in 13 Divisional Secretariat Division (DSD) levels in Colombo district due to easier interpretation and management purposes. Afterward, groundwater quality was related to urbanization using population density and built-up density in 13 DSD levels in Colombo district, Sri Lanka. PCA (Principal Component Analysis) shows that 08 DSD levels are urban and 05 DSD levels are rural. pH (3.22–6.73), COD (8.91–52.9 mg/L), BOD5 (1.2–9.9 mg/L), and DO (2.17–5.05 mg/L) showed deviations from the given standards by local authorities in Sri Lanka. A significant relationship ( p < .05) was found between urbanization and physicochemical parameters in regression analysis. The water quality index shows poor water quality indices in urban areas and vice versa in rural areas which is similar to the results obtained by statistical analysis. A sustainable urban development plan with continuous groundwater quality monitoring is necessary to protect groundwater resources in Sri Lanka.

“…Pembusukan mayat menghasilkan gas dan bahan organik. Gas yang dihasilkan berupa gas metana, CO2, H2S, dan N2, sedangkan bahan organik berupa asam lemak, amonia, asam amino, senyawa amonium, metan, merkaptan, sulfur, dan nitrat (Fineza et al, 2014). Selain itu, juga akan dihasilkan rembesan produk pembusukan yang mengandung bakteri, virus dan bahan kimia organik maupun anorganik (Üçisik and Rushbrook, 1998) (Üçisik and Rushbrook, 1998) Bahan-bahan organik hasil pembusukan mayat akan memperkaya mineral tanah yang diperlukan untuk pertumbuhan mikrorganisme tanah termasuk bakteri.…”

“…Berdasarkan penelusuran referensi, di Indonesia masih belum ditemukan penelitian tentang keragaman bakteri di TPU beserta uji resistensinya terhadap beberapa antibiotik walaupun di beberapa Negara lain sudah melaporkan seperti di Polandia (Całkosiński et al, 2015), Afrika Selatan, Australia (Z˙ ychowski and Bryndal, 2015), Latvia (Kazarina et al, 2019), dan Brazil (Fineza et al, 2014). Iklim di Indonesia sangat berbeda dengan negara-negara tersebut karena Indonesia merupakan negara beriklim tropika basah yang dapat mempengaruhi laju pencucian air lindi yang lebih tinggi sehingga kandungan organik tanah dan mikroba meningkat (Utomo et al, 2018).…”

A cemetery acts as an active decomposition site and contains bacteria which most likely have antibiotic resistance. However, related data to the phenomenon is limited. This study aimed to compare the diversity of bacteria inside and outside the cemetery and examine bacterial antibiotic resistance. First, samples were collected from three different spots inside and outside the Bonoloyo public cemetery in Surakarta, Central Java. Then, the bacteria were isolated by spread plate method on NA medium and were observed using Gram staining after 48 hours of incubation. Also, bacterial resistance against cefepime, bacitracine, and ampicilin were examined. As the results, bacterial populations inside and outside the cemetery area are 3.4x106 and 4.6x106 CFU/gram, respectively, with a diversity of 38% and 34%, while 28% of isolates are collected from both areas. The result of morphological observation showed that 15 and 21 isolates are respectively round and irregular, white to yellow colour with raised (16 isolates) and flat (19 isolates) elevation. Gram staining showed 48 isolates are coccus and 2 are bacilli, with 23 isolates of Gram negative and 27 isolates of Gram positive. Bacterial isolates showed resistance against cefepime (50%-50%) and against bacitracine (52%-43%) each from both areas of the cemetery, while resistance against ampicilin was relatively low (33%-21%). The number of bacterial populations and bacterial diversity inside and outside the cemetery area are not significantly different. In fact, the resistance of the soil bacteria population collected from cemetery soil are higher than that collected from soil outside the cemetery.
