Glucomannan is a promising isoniazid's enhancer that inducing macrophage phagocytosis.

Isoniazid (INH) is a frontline antituberculosis agent effective against (Mtb), but the increasing challenge of avoiding multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, including INH resistance, necessitates innovative approaches. This study focused on enhancing macrophage phagocytosis to overcome INH resistance. Glucomannan, an immunomodulatory polysaccharide, emerged as a potential macrophage activator.

High-Performance, Easy-to-Fabricate, Nanocomposite Heater for Life Sciences and Biomedical Applications.

Microheaters are used in several applications, including medical diagnostics, synthesis, environmental monitoring, and actuation. Conventional microheaters rely on thin-film electrodes microfabricated in a clean-room environment. However, low-cost alternatives based on conductive paste electrodes fabricated using printing techniques have started to emerge over the years.

Province clustering based on the percentage of communicable disease using the BCBimax biclustering algorithm.

Indonesia needs to lower its high infectious disease rate. This requires reliable data and following their temporal changes across provinces. We investigated the benefits of surveying the epidemiological situation with the imax biclustering algorithm using secondary data from a recent national scale survey of main infectious diseases from the National Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) covering 34 provinces in Indonesia.

Diphtheria serology in adults in Central Java and East Java, Indonesia: the importance of continuous diphtheria vaccination.

Background: Vaccination increase immunity against diphtheria, yet will decrease by aging. Therefore, boosters are needed to be done regularly.

Objectives: This study aims to determine the immunity to diphtheria for the population of 16 years old and above.

Surface plasmon resonance analysis for detecting non-structural protein 1 of dengue virus in Indonesia.

Dengue is an acute febrile disease caused by dengue virus (DENV) that is transmitted by sp., which causes serious health conditions in many countries. Non-structural protein 1 (NS1) is a co-factor for the RNA replication of this virus, which represents a new strategy for the identification of dengue.
