Source Of Pollution

Environmental pollution is the import of a foreign chemical substance or energy in a stable form into the environment in a concentration or quantity, which at a given moment causes direct damage to the environment, parts of nature, living beings or human health. Pollution or contamination means the presence of a foreign chemical substance in the environment, in a concentration or volatile form that does not cause direct harm to human health or other living organisms in a short time. Pollution is sought to be prevented by controlling the source of pollution. Man’s actions endanger and pollute the soil, air and water. Pollution can cause illness and even death in chronic patients.

AbstrakPada saat ini, pestisida banyak digunakan dalam bidang pertanian, namun pestisida juga masuk ke dalam rumah tangga untuk membasmi hewan pengganggu dan penyebab penyakit, yaitu berupa insektisida yang terdapat dalam obat anti nyamuk bakar yang dapat menimbulkan pengaruh negatif terhadap kesehatan manusia. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan lama penggunaan obat anti nyamuk bakar dengan kadar kolinesterase darah pada masyarakat kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang. Desain penelitian ini adalah cross sectional study dengan populasi masyarakat di Kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang. Pemilihan subjek secara accidental sampling mendapatkan 23 responden. Pemeriksaan kadar kolinesterase menggunakan alat spektrofotometri. Data dianalisis dengan uji chi-square. Hasil uji statistik menunjukan tidak terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara lama pemakaian obat anti nyamuk bakar dengan penurunan kadar kolinesterase (p=0.395), namun berisiko untuk terjadi penurunan kadar kolinesterase dengan OR=4.250 pada masyarakat Kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang. Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah penggunaan obat anti nyamuk bakar berisiko untuk terjadi keracunan.Kata kunci: obat anti nyamuk bakar, kolinesterase, insektisida AbstractIn this time, pesticide is not only used by agriculture sector but also used by household sector to eradicate insects and disease agents, one of them is anti mosquito fuel which contain insecticide. Insecticide is kind of dangerous chemical substance which can give a negative effect to the human health. The objective of this study was to determine correlation between prolonged use of anti mosquito fuel and cholinesterase concentration to Kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang society. This was a cross sectional study which population are society in Kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang. The subjects were 23 persons which chosen by using accidental sampling methode. Cholinesterase examination used spectrophotometric. It was analyzed by chi-square correlation test by tofor Windows. The result showed, there was no significant correlation (p = 0,395) between prolonged use of anti mosquito fuel with decreasing of cholinesterase concentration but it risked to decrease the cholinesterase concentration (OR=4.250) of Kelurahan Jati Rumah Gadang Padang society. The conclusion of this research is the society whom used anti mosquito fuel it risked getting poisoned.Keywords: anti mosquito fuel, cholinesterase, insecticide

Micronutrient Intake

Nutrition is important for human health in all stages of life - from conception to old age. Today we know much more about the molecular basis of nutrition. Most importantly, we have learnt that micronutrients, among other factors, interact with genes, and new science is increasingly providing more tools to clarify this interrelation between health and nutrition. Sufficient intake of vitamins is essential to achieve maximum health benefit. It is well established that in developing countries, millions of people still suffer from micronutrient deficiencies. However, it is far less recognized that we face micronutrient insufficiencies also in developed countries.
