Human exposure to soil contaminants in subarctic Ontario, Canada
Authors: Reyes Ellen S. , Liberda Eric , Tsuji Leonard J. S.
Published: May 2023

Background

Chemical contaminants in the Canadian subarctic present a health risk with exposures primarily occurring via the food consumption.

Objective

Characterization of soil contaminants is needed in northern Canada due to increased gardening and agricultural food security initiatives and the presence of known point sources of pollution.

Design

A field study was conducted in the western James Bay Region of Ontario, Canada, to examine the concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and its metabolites (ΣDDT), other organochlorines, and metals/metalloids in potentially contaminated agriculture sites.

Methods

Exposure pathways were assessed by comparing the estimated daily intake to acceptable daily intake values. Ninety soil samples were collected at random (grid sampling) from 3 plots (A, B, and C) in Fort Albany (on the mainland), subarctic Ontario, Canada. The contaminated-soil samples were analysed by gas chromatography with an electron capture detector or inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer.

Results

The range of ΣDDT in 90 soil samples was below the limit of detection to 4.19 mg/kg. From the 3 soil plots analysed, Plot A had the highest ΣDDT mean concentration of 1.12 mg/kg, followed by Plot B and Plot C which had 0.09 and 0.01 mg/kg, respectively. Concentrations of other organic contaminants and metals in the soil samples were below the limit of detection or found in low concentrations in all plots and did not present a human health risk.

Conclusion

Exposure analyses showed that the human risk was below regulatory thresholds. However, the ΣDDT concentration in Plot A exceeded soil guidelines set out by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment of 0.7 mg/kg, and thus the land should not be used for agricultural or recreational purposes. Both Plots B and C were below threshold limits, and this land can be used for agricultural purposes.

Published: May 2023

Introduction: Avian influenza virus (AIV) prevalence has been associated with wild game and other bird species. The contamination of these birds may pose a greater risk to those who regularly hunt and consumed infected species. Due to resident concerns communicated by local Band Council, hunter-harvested birds from a remote First Nation community in subArctic Ontario, Canada were assessed for AIV. Hunters, and especially those who live a subsistence lifestyle, are at higher risk of AIV exposure due to their increased contact with wild birds, which represent an important part of their diet.

Methods: Cloacal swabs from 304 harvested game birds representing several species of wild birds commonly hunted and consumed in this First Nation community were analyzed for AIV using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Subtyping was performed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Sequences were assembled using Lasergene, and the sequences were compared to Genbank.

Results: In total, 16 of the 304 cloacal swab samples were positive for AIV. Of the 16 positive samples, 12 were found in mallard ducks, 3 were found in snow geese (wavies), and 1 positive sample was found in partridge. The AIV samples were subtyped, when possible, and found to be positive for the low pathogenic avian influenza virus subtypes H3 and H4. No samples were positive for subtypes of human concern, namely H5 and H7.

Conclusions: This work represents the first AIV monitoring program results of hunter-harvested birds in a remote subsistence First Nation community. Community-level surveillance of AIV in remote subsistence hunting communities may help to identify future risks, while educating those who may have the highest exposure about proper handling of hunted birds. Ultimately, only low pathogenic strains of AIV were found, but monitoring should be continued and expanded to safeguard those with the highest exposure risk to AIV.
Health measures of Eeyouch (Cree) who are eligible to participate in the on-the-land Income Security Program in Eeyou Istchee (northern Quebec, Canada)
Authors: Moriarty Robert J. , Zuk Aleksandra M. , Liberda Eric , Tsuji Leonard J. S.
Published: May 2023

Background

Participation in on-the-land programs that encourage traditional cultural activities may improve health and well-being. The Income Security Program (ISP) − a financial incentive-based on-the-land program − for Eeyouch (Cree) hunters and trappers in Eeyou Istchee was created as a result of the 1975 James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement to help mitigate the effects of hydroelectric development on the Cree people of northern Quebec, Canada. Beyond the ISP’s financial incentives, little is known about the health measures of those who are eligible to participate in the ISP (i.e. spent ≥120 days on-the-land during the previous year). Therefore, this paper’s objective was to assess the health measures of northern Quebec Cree, who were eligible for participation in the ISP.

Methods

Using participant data (n = 545) compiled from the Nituuchischaayihtitaau Aschii Multi-Community Environment-and-Health Study, we assessed 13 different health measures in generalized linear models with the independent variable being the eligibility to participate in the ISP.

Results

Participants in the present study who were eligible for the ISP had significantly higher levels of vigorous and moderate activity per week, and higher concentrations of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the blood compared to those ineligible for the ISP (i.e. spent ≤119 days on-the-land during the previous year). Encouragingly, following model adjustment for age and sex, participants eligible for the ISP did not have higher blood concentrations of mercury than those who were not eligible for the ISP.

Conclusions

Our results suggest that the participants eligible for participation in the ISP are likely to be healthier than those who are ineligible to participate − and are promising for on-the-land programs for Indigenous peoples beyond a financial incentive − with no apparent higher risk of increasing contaminant body burden through traditional on-the-land-activities (e.g. fish consumption).
Environmental contaminants and the disproportionate prevalence of type‑2 diabetes mellitus among Indigenous Cree women in James Bay Quebec, Canada
Authors: Zuk Aleksandra M. , Liberda Eric , Tsuji Leonard J. S.
Published: May 2023

Indigenous populations are disproportionately affected by type 2 diabetes (T2DM) compared to non-Indigenous people. Of importance, the prevalence of T2DM is greater amongst females than males in First Nations communities, in contrast to higher male prevalence reported in non-Indigenous Canadians. Therefore, in this study we extend our previously published work with respect to females, and the potential association between environmental exposures to organochlorine pesticides, such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), and dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) to explain the greater prevalence of T2DM among Indigenous females compared to males. Using data from the Multi-Community Environment-and-Health Study, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), examined 9-polychlorinated biphenyl congeners, 7-organic pesticides, and 4-metal/metalloids. Modified Poisson regression with robust error variance estimated adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI), regressing prevalent T2DM on the newly derived principal components (PC), adjusting for a priori covariates, including parity. We further examined the relationship between high detection concentrations of DDT and tertials of categorized DDE exposures on T2DM among Indigenous Cree women. Among 419 female participants, 23% (n = 95) had physician-diagnosed T2DM. PCA analysis show that DDT and Lead (Pb) loaded highly on the second axis (PC-2), although in opposite directions, indicating the different exposure sources. As previously published, T2DM was significantly associated with PC-2 across adjusted models, however, after further adjusting for parity in this analysis, T2DM was no longer significantly associated with increasing PC-2 scores (PR = 0.88, 95% 0.76, 1.03). Furthermore, we found that the highest detectable levels of DDT, and tertiles of DDE were significantly associated with prevalent T2DM in the fully adjusted model (PR = 1.93, 1.17, 3.19), and (PR = 3.58, 1.10, 11.70), respectively. This cross-sectional analysis suggests organochlorines, specifically, detectable high exposure concentrations of DDT and DDE are associated with prevalent type 2 diabetes, signifying a possible important link between parity and environmental organochlorines pesticides among Indigenous Cree women.

 
Examining chronic inflammatory markers on blood pressure measures in the presence of vitamin D insufficiency among indigenous Cree adults: results from the cross- sectional Multi- Community Environment- and- Health Study in Eeyou Istchee, Quebec, Canada
Authors: Zuk Aleksandra M. , Liberda Eric , Tsuji Leonard J. S.
Published: May 2023

Objective: High blood pressure (BP) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Examining the role of inflammatory mediators on BP is important since vitamin D (VD) is a modifiable risk factor, which possibly modulates inflammatory cytokines. This study simulated what are known as average 'controlled direct effects (CDE)' of inflammatory markers, C reactive protein (CRP), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interlukin-6 (IL-6) on continuous BP measures, while fixing VD, an intermediate variable to specific level.

Design: Cross-sectional study.

Setting: We analysed data from the Multi-Community Environment-and-Health Study, 2005-2009, conducted in Eeyou Istchee, Quebec, Canada.

Participants: This study recruited 1425 study Indigenous Cree participants from seven Cree communities. Only adults with serum VD levels, inflammatory markers and BP measures were included in this data analysis.

Primary and secondary outcomes measures: Inflammatory markers examined the top 25th exposure percentiles. VD 'insufficiency' (ie, 25-hydroxyvitamin-D levels<50 nmol/L) defined by the Institute of Medicine. CDE for each inflammatory marker in the presence and absence of population VD insufficiency simulated the average direct effect change for systolic and diastolic BP (SBP and DBP) measures. All models were adjusted for exposure-and-mediator outcome relationship.

Results: Among 161 participants, 97 (60 %) were female. The prevalence of VD insufficiency was 32%. CDE estimates show in the presence and absence of population vitamin D insufficiency, inflammatory markers have a slightly different association on BP. TNF-α significantly and inversely associated with SBP in the presence of vitamin D insufficiency, fully adjusted model β = -13.61 (95% CI -24.42 to -2.80); however, TNF-α was not associated with SBP in the absence of vitamin D insufficiency. CRP, IL-6 were also not significantly associated with BP measures, although the magnitude of association was greater for those with elevated inflammation and VD insufficiency.

Conclusion: This novel analysis shows in the presence of VD insufficiency, inflammation (particularly TNF-α) may affect SBP. Additional research is needed to elucidate these findings, and the temporal relationship between these variables.

This paper discusses control mass-spring-dumper (MSD) system used in vehicle suspensions. The vehicle suspension consists of mass, coil (spring), and shock absorber (dumper). MSD provided a shock effect when the vehicle was caused by the frictional force on the load. The dificulty to achive the stability of suspension and the following of set point tracking. Therefore, the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) based on tuning 1-degree of freedom (1-DOF) and 2-degree of freedom (2-DOF) were proposed to stability when the disturbance accours. The MSD equation was obtained by using the laplace transform and validated in Matlab Simulink. The result shows that the proposed PID control reduces disturbance rejection by the smaller set point tracking peak amplitude of 0.01, overshoot of 0.68%, rise time of 0.199 seconds. The 1-DOF tuning achieved set point tracking and disturbance rejection with a peak amplitude of 1.13, overshoot 12.9%, rise time 0.134 seconds, and the 2-DOF tuning achived set point tracking and disturbance rejection with peak amplitude of 1.07, overshoot 6.53%, rise time 1.28 seconds. The proposed PID control has the best performance than 1-DOF and 2-DOF controller.

Provinsi Lampung merupakan penghasil pisang terbesar dengan jumlah sebanyak 1,48 juta ton atau 21,59 % dari total produksi pisang nasional. Jenis pisang yang banyak dikonsumsi masyarakat adalah pisang ambon (Musa paradisiaca var.sapientum.), namun pemanfaatan pisang sebagai bahan obat, kosmetik maupun pangan masih terbatas pada buahnya dan pengolahan bagian lainnya yang berupa limbah seperti kulit buah masih sedikit. Kulit pisang dilaporkan memiliki khasiat sebagai antioksidan, antikolesterol, antinyeri, antidiare, anti hipertensi, dan antihiperglikemi. Melihat besarnya potensi dari kulit pisang, maka diperlukan studi untuk memanfaatkan kulit pisang ambon sebagai sediaan masker gel peel-off yang stabil, berefek, dan aman. Pengujian aktivitas antioksidan dilakukan dengan metode Diphenylhydrazylpicryl (DPPH). Formulasi masker gel dibuat dengan basis Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) dengan konsentrasi 10%. Evaluasi sediaan masker gel meliputi pengamatan perubahan konsistensi, warna, bau, pH, dan viskositas selama 28 hari pada suhu penyimpanan yang berbeda, yaitu pada suhu 4◦C dan 27◦C. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak etanol kulit pisang ambon memiliki IC50 sebesar 13,542 ppm. Dari hasil uji fisik menunjukkan bahwa formula 2 memiliki syarat yang paling baik sebagai sediaan masker. Hasil evaluasi aktivitas antioksidan, ketiga formula masker memiliki aktivitas antioksidan yang baik (IC50<50), namun formula yang disimpan dalam suhu 4◦C memiliki aktivitas antioksidan yang lebih baik.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan senyawa aktif antiradikal bebas dari kulit batang kepuh (Sterculia foetida L.). Uji aktivitas dilakukan secara invitro dengan metode DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-pycrylhidrazyl). Teknik pemisahan dilakukan dengan kromatografi kolom dan diidentifikasi dengan spektrofotometer FTIR dan UV-Vis.Hasil maserasi yang memiliki aktivitas adalah ekstrak etanol. Selanjutnya dipartisi dengan etil asetat dan kloroform, diperoleh ekstrak kloroform yang menunjukkan hasil uji aktivitas antiradikal bebas yang paling tinggi dan dilanjutkan teknik pemisahan. Ekstrak dipisahkan dengan kromatografi kolom dengan fase diam silika gel. Pemisahan dan pemurnian menghasilkan 9 fraksi gabungan (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I). Berdasarkan uji antiradikal bebas, semua fraksi menunjukkan hasil positif antiradikal bebas, yang relatif murni secara KLT adalah fraksi B yang berbentuk serbuk berwarna kuning muda seberat 0,0325 gram. Identifikasi dengan pereaksi Leibermann Burchard menunjukkan isolat FB adalah golongan senyawa triterpenoid. Spektrum UV-Vis dari isolat FB dengan dua puncak utama yang muncul pada panjang gelombang 212 nm sebagai λ maks diduga jenis transisi yang terjadi pada panjang gelombang 212 nm kemungkinan diakibatkan oleh terjadinya transisi elektronik dari n-σ* dari kromofor C=O dan puncak yang lain berupa bahu pada panjang gelombang 284 nm diakibatkan oleh terjadinya transisi elektronik n-π* dari ikatan rangkap C=O. Dugaan ini diperkuat oleh data dari spektrum inframerah yang menunjukkan adanya gugus fungsi –OH, CH alifatik, C=O, C=C alifatik, dan C-O.

ABSTRAK Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUMDes) sebelumnya didefinisikan hanya sebagai badan usaha. Namun setelah Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja disahkan, BUMDes merupakan badan usaha yang berbadan hukum. Konsekuensinya ada beberapa perubahan regulasi dan kelengkapan dokumen yang dituntut untuk pengurusan badan hukum BUMDes. Salah satunya yakni penyesuaian Anggaran Dasar (AD)/ Anggaran Rumah Tangga (ART) BUMDes. AD/ART BUMDes merupakan rujukan peraturan dasar dan turunan dalam pengelolaan BUMDes. Tantangan dalam penyusunan AD/ART yakni tidak semua warga desa, bahkan Pemerintah Desa dan Pengurus BUMDes paham proses penyusunan, substansi AD/ART, serta struktur dalam AD/ART. Karena itu, pelatihan penyusunan AD/ART sesuai regulasi baru dibutuhkan untuk memperbaiki, sekaligus menyepakati poin substansial dalam isi AD/ART BUMDes. Kegiatan ini dilakukan di LPPM Universitas Katolik Widya Mandira yang melibatkan 15 orang peserta dari perwakilan pengurus BUMDes Ina Huk, pemerintah desa, BPD, pelaku usaha, tokoh masyarakat, perwakilan perempuan, kaum muda dan warga Desa Mata Air, Kecamatan Kupang Tengah, Kabupaten Kupang. Kata Kunci: BUMDes, Anggaran Dasar, Anggaran Rumah Tangga  ABSTRACT Village-owned Enterprises (BUMDes) were previously only defined as business entities. However, after the Job Creation Law was passed, BUMDes is now a legal entity. Consequently, there have been several regulatory changes and the complete documents required for managing BUMDes legal entities. One of them is the adjustment of the BUMDes Statutes (AD)/Bylaws (ART). BUMDes AD/ART is a reference for primary and derivative regulations in BUMDes management. The challenge in preparing AD/ART is that not all villagers, even the Village Government and BUMDes management, understand the drafting process, the substance of AD/ART, and the structure of AD/ART. Therefore, training on drafting AD/ART following the new regulations is needed to improve and, at the same time, agree on essential points in the contents of BUMDes AD/ART. This activity was carried out by the LPPM of Widya Mandira Catholic University which involved 15 participants from BUMDes Ina Huk officials, village government representatives, BPD, business actors, community leaders, women's representatives, youth and residents of Mata Air Village, Kupang Tengah District, Kupang Regency. Keywords: Village-owned Enterprises, Statutes (AD), Bylaws (ART)
