One of the natural ingredients can be used for sunscreen is Cinnamomum burmannii. Sinamaldehid chemical constituents in cinnamon bark extract that has potential as an antioxidant and can be used as a sunscreen content. This study was to determine the levels of cinnamon bark extract ( 1 %, 2 % and 3 % ) which can give physical characteristics, acceptability, which is optimal for preparations with HPMC as a gelling agent, Evaluations include pH, the power spread, the viscosity and acceptability. The results of organoleptic for formula I (1%), II (2%) and III (3%) have a soft texture grainy, the distinctive smell of cinnamon, and all formula has a pale brown color. From the analysis of One-Way ANOVA found significant differences for any dispersive power. But did not have significant differences in pH and viscosity. For acceptability evaluation formula III is the optimal formula to applied softness, easiest formula to flattened and easy to wash.
Fasting is defined as worship holding back or abstaining from eating, drinking, and all things that cancel it, starting from dawn to sunset. Although obligatory, fasting has rukhsah (relief), which can be withdrawn, for example, in conditions that can endanger the safety of life or health if fasting is continued. Muslims who undergo fasting can have different medical conditions, for example, patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, peptic ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease, inflammatory bowel disease, lung disease, heart disease, kidney disease, and pregnancy. Therefore, knowledge of fasting and its effects on various medical conditions. Not many people understand very well about the rules of using drugs when fasting so that therapy does not go well, whereas illness that is not appropriately treated will disrupt our fasting. The solution offered is the existence of this service can provide an understanding to the citizens of Aisyiyah in the city of Palangka Raya about how to use drugs in the month of Ramadan in terms of health science and terms of Islamic principles.
Based on the 2017 IDHS survey, most adolescent women (80%) and men (84%) reported dating. The 15-17 years is the age group when adolescents start dating. Teenage dating activities lead to sexual behavior, such as holding hands, hugging, kissing lips, touching sensitive parts, and having sex. This study aims to determine the influence of the background characteristics of adolescents (age, area of residence, level of education) and social patterns (having friends having premarital sex, having the urge because of friends, influencing friends to have premarital sex, considering virginity important) on the incidence of premarital sex in Central Kalimantan 2017. Secondary data were obtained from the 2017 IDHS survey. Data analysis was performed by univariate, bivariate (Spearman rho test), and multivariate (logistic regression test). The results showed that 88% of respondents had sexual behavior orientation, and 12% did not. The correlation analysis explains a significant relationship between premarital sexual behavior and the area of residence. Respondents who live in cities are 3.47 times more likely to commit premarital sexual behavior (α<0,05 = 0,021; OR = 3.47). In addition, there is sufficient evidence to suggest a relationship between premarital sexual behavior and education level, respondents who attend high school and above are 2.71 times more likely to have premarital sexual behavior (α<0,10 = 0,066; OR = 2.71). Meanwhile, other variables from background characteristics and social patterns have no significant relationship/do not influence premarital sexual behavior. So it can be concluded that the background characteristics in the area of residence (Sig Wald <0.0) have a significant partial effect on adolescents' incidence of premarital sexual behavior in Central Kalimantan.
Market traders are the people most at risk of being infected with Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). Transaction activities in the market between sellers and buyers are high, so awareness is very important to implement the COVID-19 preventive health protocol recommended by the government. The target of this activity is traders in the Pasar Besar City of Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan. The purpose of this activity is to increase knowledge and awareness in implementing health protocols in the market in order to accelerate the prevention of handling COVID-19. The method of this activity is by conducting surveys through questionnaires, providing education and training/demonstrations in implementing health protocols in the market, and distributing leaflets, masks, and hand sanitizers. This community service activity focuses on education, socialization, and training/demonstration of the application of health protocols in the market for 72 traders in the market, which includes: (1) wearing masks; (2) perform hand hygiene; (3) avoiding touching the face area, (4) applying proper etiquette coughing or sneezing; and (5) maintaining a distance (at least 1 meter) from other buyers/traders.
Kalimantan is an island in Indonesia with many medicinal plants, one of which is the Kalakai plant. Kalakai contains several bioactive compounds, such as phenolic, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoid families. The roots of the Kalakai plant (Stenochlaena palustris Bedd) are considered to have the potential as sunscreens. This study aims to determine the roots of Kalakai were formulated in the form of cream with a ratio of extract concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 3%. The cream's physical properties (organoleptic, homogeneity, spreadability, pH, and adhesion) were evaluated on day 1, day 7, and day 14. The good physical properties formula of sunscreen cream was tested for SPF value. This study used an experimental method. The results showed that it could be formulated in cream and the physical evaluation of the cream showed no statistically significant differences between formulations I, II, and III. The sun protection factor values obtained from the creams in formulation II, with extracts of 2% at concentrations of 300 ppm and 350 ppm, are 11 and 12. The results are classified as maximum protection abilities.
