CHARACTERIZATION OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS BACTERIA IN EARPHONES THAT ARE OFTEN USED AMONG TEENAGERS IN SUB-DISTRICTS NORTHERN CITY OF GORONTALO CITY
Abstrak
The problem that often occurs with earphones among teenagers is due to the phenomenon of playing online games and the disease caused is chronic noise. This study aims to characterize Staphyloccus aureus bacteria in earphones that are often used among adolescents and observe the types of bacteria in earphones that are often used among adolescents in Kota Utara District, Gorontalo City. This research method is qualitative with a descriptive type of research. Accidental sampling technique with 8 earphones that are often used. The results showed that from 8 earphone samples , there were 5 positive samples of Staphylococcus aureus and 3 samples in the form of bacillus that were gram-negative. In this study, the results of macroscopic examination, microscopic examination and catalase test were obtained using Blood agar media and Mannitol salt agar (MSA) media.
