In the framework of the Risk Assessment procedure for the ecotoxicological evaluation of compounds used in the aquatic environment, tests with target species must be carried out. This paper reports the results concerning the evaluation of the acute toxicity of F-500 micelle encapsulator (Hazard Control Technologies Inc., Fayetteville, GA, USA) on cladocerans Daphnia magna, with the purpose to verify its compatibility for the aquatic environment and its adequacy for the remediation of soils polluted with hydrocarbons. The obtained results show that by adding F-500 to diesel-polluted soils, the toxicity on Daphnia magna decreases remarkably, indicating the usefulness of this compound to fight the environmental pollution consequent to hydrocarbon dumping.

Abstrak. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) telah menyebabkan masalah kesehatan di seluruh dunia dengan morbiditas dan mortalitas yang terus meningkat. Pada beberapa kasus COVID-19 diketahui terjadi manifestasi trombotik. Adanya kelainan trombotik ini tentunya mempengaruhi tatalaksana dan prognosis pasien COVID-19. Oleh karena itu penting untuk mengetahui patofisiologi dan manajemen trombosis pada COVID-19. Tujuan dari artikel ini adalah mengulas literatur terbaru terkait prevalensi, patofisiologi, penilaian risiko, serta manajemen trombosis pada COVID-19.Kata kunci: COVID-19, trombosis.Abstract. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global health problem with ever increasing morbidity and mortality. In some cases, thrombotic manifestation has been reported in COVID-19 patients. This thrombotic manifestation certainly affects the management and prognosis of COVID-19 patients. Therefore it is crucial to understand the pathophysiology and management of thrombosis in COVID-19. The aim of this article is to review the recent literature regarding prevalence, pathophysiology, risk assessment, and management of thrombosis in COVID-19.Keywords:COVID-19, thrombosis

Health and safety risk assessment of PT Unido Pasifik Fabrication department to create a safe and efficient and productive work environment. The fabrication department is the main pillar of company support. The purpose of this study was to analyze the potential hazards in the Production department especially the PT Unindo Pasifik Fabrication Department. In addition this study aims to determine the relationship of knowledge of workers about the potential danger with the behavior of the use of personal protective equipment. This research is an observational descriptive study in which the object of research is the machine, attitude or behavior of the workforce, work processes and work environment. Based on hazard identification, risk assessment and control, there are several hazards and risks that occur with tolerable risk, moderate risk and sustainable risk criteria. Hazard control has been carried out at PT. Unindo Pasifik that is administrative control and the provision of personal protective equipment (PPE). And while the Objective, Target and Program (OTP) are set namely reducing work accidents and reducing occupational diseases in the Fabrication department. Didalam penilaian risiko kesehatan dan keselamatan departemen Fabrikasi PT Unido Pasifik untuk menciptakan lingkugan kerja aman dan efisien serta produktif. Departemen fabrikasi merupakan penopang kegitaan perusahaan yang utama. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis potensi bahaya di bagian Produksi khususnya Departemen Fabrikasi PT Unindo Pasifik. Selain itu penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan pekerja tentang potensi bahaya dengan perilaku penggunaan alat pelindung diri. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif observasional dimana Objek penelitian adalah mesin, sikap atau perilaku tenaga kerja, proses kerja dan lingkungan kerja. Berdasarkan identifikasi bahaya, penilaian dan pengendalan risiko terdapat beberapa bahaya dan risiko yang terjadi dengan kriteria tolerable risk, moderate risk dan sustainable risk. Pengendalian bahaya sudah dilakukan di PT. Unindo Pasifik yaitu pengendalian bersifat administrative & penyediaan alat pelindung diri (APD). Dan sedangkan Objective, Target dan Program (OTP) yang ditetapkan yaitu mengurangi kecelakaan kerja dan diharapkan dapat mengurangi penyakit yang ditimbulkan akibat kerja di deprtemen fabrikasi tersebut.

Work Accidents

Every job has the opportunity of the risk because occurrence of work accidents can be caused by various factors. PT. CA is a large distributor of motorcycle spare parts which has activities including receiving goods from fabrication and then storing them in temporary warehouses before being distributed to dealers in various regions. The company's activities have a large potential for accidents due to several operations. To hazard identification, risk assessment, and determining control in any work that occurs or has the potential to occur, it is necessary to analyze using HIRADC. The method used is a descriptive method described in the flow process and then identified possible hazards that occur in each activity step. After the identification process is complete, a risk assessment is carried out to determine the form of control. The object of research is the receiving section of the work area. The results of this study are that the receiving section has 7 existing activities and there are 20 potential hazards that are possible, from these potentials the current control is to maximize APD to minimize danger. The highest level of risk is substantial in the activity of moving cargo to temporary storage or inspection areas with a potential danger of crashing into workers which has an impact on limb injuries, fractures, and even death, so this activity is a concern to avoid work accidents. In addition, it is determined that hazard control is carried out by means of forklift lanes that are not allowed to be passed by workers and control recommendations are in the form of setting SOPs, ensuring that forklifts complete their activities to carry out inspections.
