Buni fruit (Antidesma bunius (L.) Spreng) is a plant that contains anthocyanin pigments that can give a red color. The purpose of this study was to make cheek dye preparations in solid form using buni fruit extract (Antidesma bunius (L.) Spreng) as a dye. The extract was obtained by maceration using 96% ethanol containing 2% citric acid. The cheek coloring formula that was made was using buni fruit dye with a concentration of 10; 12.5; 15 and 17.5%. The tests carried out include: physical quality inspection (homogeneity, polish test, crack test), irritation test, and stability test. Formula with a concentration of 10% produces a pale cream color; preparation with a concentration of 12.5% produces a cream color, a concentration of 15% produces a weak pink color and a concentration of 17.5% produces a dark pink color. The results of the physical quality examination of the preparation showed that the preparation had a homogeneous color, good polish at a concentration of 17.5% because it produced a clear pink color during polishing and did not crack when dropped from a height of 25 cm. Preparations are not irritating. From the observation of the shape, it was found that all the cheek coloring preparations made did not change shape from the initial form of printing for 90 days at room temperature storage. From the results of color observations, all preparations made remained stable during storage at room temperature for 50 days, on day 55 the color of the preparation began to fade, this was due to unstable anthocyanins. The odor of the preparation remained stable in storage for 90 days of observation at room temperature. These results indicate that buni fruit extract can be used as a colorant in cheek coloring preparations.
Penyakit degeneratif saat ini telah menjadi ancaman serius kesehatan global, salah satu diantara penyakit degeneratif tersebut adalah Diabetes Melitus (DM). Perhatian pada penyakit DM semakin tinggi karena prevalensinya semakin meningkat pada masyarakat. Salah satunya terjadi pada masyarakat Desa Kolam, Kecamatan Percut Sei Tuan, dimana kesadaran terhadap pentingnya pemeriksaan kesehatan khususnya pemeriksaan kadar gula darah (KGD) masih rendah. Hal ini disebabkan karena kurangnya pengetahuan dan masalah ekonomi masyarakat. Pemeriksaan ini perlu dilakukan untuk mengetahui kadar gula darah dalam tubuh apakah dalam batas normal, kurang, atau melebihi batas normal dan sebagai deteksi dini penyakit DM. Guna mengatasi masalah tersebut dilakukan kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat dengan tujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakat Desa Kolam mengenai penyakit DM melalui edukasi, penyuluhan kesehatan, dan pemeriksaan gula darah sewaktu. Metode yang digunakan dalam edukasi dan penyuluhan adalah ceramah dan diskusi, serta untuk melihat tingkat pengetahuan masyarakat dilakukan pre test dan post test dengan memberikan kuesioner berisi pertanyaan terkait DM sesuai dengan materi yang akan dipaparkan. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji Paired T Test pada program SPSS. Pemeriksaan gula darah acak dilakukan menggunakan glucometer. Kegiatan ini dilakukan terhadap masyarakat, dibantu oleh kader posyandu dan pihak terkait di wilayah Dusun I Desa Kolam, Kecamatan Percut Sei Tuan.Hasil kegiatan ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan peserta tentang penyakit DM tipe 2, gejala/ tanda, pencegahan, faktor risiko, pola hidup sehat, komplikasi yang ditimbulkan apabila kadar gula darah tidak terkontrol, dan kepatuhan dalam minum obat. Pemeriksaan kadar gula darah sewaktu pada masyarakat dilakukan sebagai upaya deteksi dini dan skrining penyakit DM tipe 2.
