Designing Android Based Software for Anthropometry, Hearing test, and Visual Test to Monitor Children Developmental Status

The World Health Organization (WHO) in 2018 reported that the prevalence for children under five with growth and development disorders was 28.7%, and Indonesia was included in the third country with the highest prevalence in the Southeast Asia region. As such, monitoring child growth and development is pivotal to determine necessary intervention and prevention. With technological advancement, monitoring child growth and development has become more accessible. The main objective of this paper is to explain the process of designing an Android software application for anthropometry, hearing test, and visual test to monitor children's developmental status. We employed to research and development methods, including need analysis, data collection, application design, user trial, and evaluation. The findings showed that the application could monitor growth and development in children from the age of zero to 72 months based on anthropometric testing related to auditory and visual stimulation in children. The application is useful in detecting the growth and development of children based on the results of the child's stimulation response. Based on the results of user trials by medical experts, parents, technological experts, it can be concluded that the software is applicable in monitoring the status of children's growth and development.

Removal of Heavy Metal Mercury (Hg) Liquid Waste through Electrolysis Method in Paya Ateuk Village, Pasie Raja District, South Aceh

Electrolysis is one of the methods used to remove heavy metal mercury (Hg). The electrolysis process is carried out on residual liquid waste from gold processing by utilizing chemical reactions through electrodes immersed in an electrolyte solution. This research method is experimental. We conducted laboratory tests to see the electrolysis process on the residual liquid waste from gold processing in a 10-liter container. We took samples from 10 different containers, 1 liter each from each tub. Sampling time was carried out in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The results showed a significant decrease in mercury (Hg) levels up to 1.30% with 12 volts of electricity for 100 minutes. In contrast, the lowest decrease occurred in the electric current of 3.3 volts within 25 minutes. We use the electrolysis method. This heavy metal removal technique can be applied and managed properly by the community and local government to minimize heavy metal pollution such as mercury in the surrounding environment due to waste from the community's traditional gold processing.

Nutritional Value Content in Mangrove Syrup From Sonneratia alba Fruit

Pedada fruit (Sonneratia alba) is a fruit of mangrove plants whose utilization can be improved through simple technology, namely the processing of Sonneratia alba fruit into syrup.
