Please refer to the Judging Criteria and Process Below. The Entry / Nomiation will be judged on the information given. Based on data from the Health Research Association Indonesian Ministry of Health in 2010 there were approximately 35.6% of infants with protein energy malnutrition (PEM). One of PEM diet therapy which has been implemented in Indonesia by giving modisco (Modified Diet Skim Cotton Seed Oil). Modisco made from vegetable oil, skim milk, sugar, and water. However, due to deficiency of proteins and enzymes, one of them is a protease enzyme resulting in malabsorption of nutrients, then giving modisco with high protein composition was not able to compensate for the lack of protein in PEM. Therefore, the active substance is needed to maximize the absorption of proteins by the addition of bromelain from pineapple extract. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks peptide bonds in proteins into amino acids that help the absorption of protein. This case we've tested in experimental animals induced PEM, and the results showed that the administration modisco and bromelain obtained values of albumin, hemoglobin, and weight (an indicator of nutritional improvement PEM) is higher than single modisco administration. Highest increase in PEM indicators obtained from a combination of bromelain 7 mg and modisco 15g. Unfortunately, either formula or combination Modisco not available in formulations that can directly be used by health workers. Therefore, our team makes the formulation of modified Modisco and called Proteolin (Protein Absorbing Optimalized by Bromelain). Thus, we expect this formula can be used as an alternative therapy to improve the use of single Modisco for PEM in Indonesia and other developing countries.
