Malaria is one of the health problems in Indonesia, especially West Sumatra. Determination of the description of Malaria disease in an area is needed to determine the spread and severity of the disease. This study aims to determine the frequency distribution according to age, sex and place of residence, description of the types of Plasmodium causes of Malaria and hematological features in Malaria patients at Siti Rahmah Padang Hospital in 2018. This type of research is a descriptive observational study with an approach or design cross section (cross sectional). The frequency distribution of Malaria sufferers in Siti Rahmah Padang Hospital in 2018 according to the highest age was in the age group 21-30 years as many as 28 cases (36.8%), the highest sex among men was 46 (60.5%) and the highest number of residences was found in Koto Tangah sub-district there were 31 cases (40.8%). The type of Plasmodium found in Malaria cases in Siti Rahmah Padang Hospital in 2018 was P. vivax (73 cases (96.05%)) and P. falciparum (3 cases (3.95%)). The results of laboratory tests on Hb, hematocrit, platelet and leukocyte levels in Malaria positive patients in Siti Rahmah Padang Hospital in 2018 were in the normal range.

Folic acid was assayed microbiologically in whole blood in a group of infants hospitalized for diarrhea, various infections, and malnutrition. Folic acid activity was decreased in the majority of cases. In some of the infants very low levels were observed. The value of the determination of folic acid in whole blood as a sensitive index of the folic acid status of an individual was confirmed by parallel observations on bone marrow morphology and the level of folic acid in serum. Folinic acid levels were within the normal range in most cases. Low folinic acid levels were common only when folic acid was extremely low. Many patients with low folic acid levels were not anemic, or mildly anemic. In the anemic patients a hypochromic microcytic blood picture was the rule. The effect of treatment with folic acid on the general condition of the patients was more striking than the hematological response.

The activity of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) in the serum was determined by the spectrophotometric method in 63 normal term newborn infants, varying from birth to 11 days of age. The normal range of activity in the newborn period varied from 13 to 105 units (with the exception of one infant in whom the level was 160 units). This is a considerably wider range than that of 5 to 45 units found in normal adults. Allowing for an error of about ±10% inherent in the method of determination of GOT, activity as great as approximately 120 units, which in adults would be indicative of some pathologic state, must be considered physiologic in the newborn infant. The activity of GOT was not related to the age of the infant within the neonatal period studied, and varied widely in different infants for each day of age, without any distinctive pattern. Variations of the activity of GOT in specimens of cord blood studied ranged below 59 units, which was lower than for any other day of the neonatal period adequately investigated. No infants were studied repeatedly. No relation was found between the concentration of bilirubin and the activity of GOT in the serum.

Abstract An automated adaptation of the Somogyi saccharogenic determination of serum amylase is described in which conventional AutoAnalyzer modules are used. Adequate sensitivity with short incubation is achieved by incorporating glucose oxidase and catalase in the substrate to destroy serum glucose during incubation. Maltose and other dialyzable oligosaccharides are measured with the alkaline copper-neocuproine reaction. A simultaneous blank run is performed to determine reducing substances other than glucose in serum. Precision studies and correlation with a manual saccharogenic method are presented. The normal range was determined from data for 49 healthy blood donors.

Abstract A modification is described of the automated determination of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG) in blood [Grisolia, S., et al., Anal. Biochem. 31, 235 (1969)]. Modifications in the manifold result in a sensitive, noise-free, rapid system and the modifications in the preparations of the reagents ensure stability of the diluted standards and blood samples for at least three weeks. Samples are run at the rate of 60/h and sample size can be as small as 5 µl of whole blood. The coefficient of variation of the overall determination of automated DPG and manual hemoglobin is 3.6% and the SD is ±0.77 µmol/g Hb. The normal range is 14.6 ± 2.2 (SD) µmol/g hemoglobin.
