Potential of cell-free fermentation supernatant from yellow passion fruit microspheres as a novel antibacterial agent against multi-drug resistant organisms

Antibiotic resistance is a significant health issue in the world. These bacteria, which mutate and adapt to antibiotics and make inadequate therapy. These bacteria are classified as Multi-drug Resistant Organisms (MDRO), by which the organisms are no longer vulnerable at least to one type of antibiotic. Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase (ESBL) Escherichia coli and Methicillin

Review: Application of Polysaccharide Polymer Combination in Microsphere Delivery System for Anti-Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis is still a health problem both in Indonesia and in the world and is one of the leading causes of death. Unfortunately, the first-line OAT therapy that is currently recommended in Indonesia has some limitations, namely requiring a long duration of treatment and starting to find cases of resistance in its use. Drug Delivery

Characterization and Release Of Quercetin from Microspheres with Sodium Alginate-Chitosan Combination Matrix

The purpose of this study was to determine characteristics and release of quercetin microspheres with a matrix of sodium alginate-chitosan combination by studying the effect of chitosan concentration. The ability of the drug to release from the microsphere matrix is one of the factors that influence its effectiveness as an immunomodulator. Therefore, a drug release

Insights into hearing protection and workplace safety in textile industry

The textile industry, a critical sector of the global economy, faces significant environmental and occupational health challenges, particularly from noise pollution generated by weaving machines. These machines often produce noise levels exceeding the recommended safety threshold, posing serious auditory and non-auditory health risks to workers. Prolonged exposure to noise levels above 85 decibels is a

Survey on processed potato products manufacturer in Bangladesh

This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of food safety among potato product manufacturers in Bangladesh, with a particular focus on acrylamide, a probable human carcinogen formed during high-temperature cooking processes such as frying and baking. Acrylamide, generated through the Maillard reaction between reducing sugars and asparagine, poses public health risks including carcinogenicity

Enhancing safety practices for a safer learning environment

Enhancing safety practices for a safer learning environment

The perception of educational institutions as inherently safe environments is increasingly questioned due to rising safety incidents worldwide. The 2003 dormitory fire at the People’s Friendship University of Russia which killed 41 students and a 2015 lab explosion at China University of Mining and Technology which resulted in one fatality and several injuries are among
