Abstrak: The objective of this study was to determine the influence of avocado leaves n-hexane fraction on ureum and creatinine description of Sparague-Dawley rats, induced by ethylene glicol (EG) 0.75 % and ammonium choloride(AC) 2%. Twenty adult male rats were devided into four treatment groups. The first group was normal group (A) that had not been given any special treatment. Second group was treated EG/AC but not avocado leavesn-hexane fraction. In addition to EG/AC treatment, two groups of rats were also gavage-administratedn-hexane fraction of avocado leaves dose of 100 mg/ Kg BW (C) and n-hexane fraction of avocado leaves dose 300 mg/Kg BW(D). Rat blood serum was taken before and after treatment. The result of this study showed that on the ureum and creatinine parameters value were not differences among each group statistically (P>0.05), but ureum and creatinine on D group were higher compared with other groups. Body weight of rats on B, C and D groups was decreased, but body weight of rats on D group was more decreased than B and C groups. The results of this research could be concluded that n- heksan was not good fraction for alvocado leaves and n-hexane fraction of avocado leaves dose 300 mg/ Kg BW and 100 mg/ Kg BW could not decrease ureum and creatinine plasma value.

Judul: Pengaruh Kombinasi Ekstrak Daun Alpukat dan Akar Alang-alang pada Kadar Ureum dan Kreatinin Tikus Model Nefrolitiasis
Abstrak: Alpukat dan alang-alang merupakan tanaman herbal yang mengandung flavonoid, yang secara emipiris mampu mengatasi masalah nefrolitiasis. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji pengaruh kombinasi ekstrak daun alpukat dan akar alang-alang pada kadar ureum dan kreatinin tikus yang diinduksi etilen glikol dan amonium klorida. Penelitian ini menggunakan 25 ekor tikus putih jantan galur Sprague-Dawley, dibagi menjadi 5 kelompok perlakuan yaitu normal (A), negatif (B), positif (C), kombinasi 1 (D), dan kombinasi 2 (E). Pengambilan darah dilakukan pada hari ke-14 dan hari ke-28. Kadar ureum dan kreatinin diperiksa dengan alat Semi Auto Chemistry Analyzer Mindray-BA-88A. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kadar ureum kelompok kombinasi 1 lebih rendah (p<0,05) dibandingkan dengan kelompok negatif pada hari ke-28, sementara kadar kreatinin kelompok kombinasi 1 memiliki nilai yang rendah dan tidak berbeda nyata pada hari ke-14 dan ke-28. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, dapat disimpulkan pemberian kombinasi 1 merupakan dosis terbaik pada penelitian ini dalam menurunkan kadar ureum dan mempertahankan kadar kreatinin pada tikus model nefrolitiasis., Avocado and reeds are herbal plants containing flavonoids, which can treat nephrolithiasis. This study examines the combination effect of avocado leaf extract and reed roots on urea and creatinine levels in rats induced by ethylene glycol and ammonium chloride. In this study, used 25 male white rats of the Sprague-Dawley strain were divided into 5 treatment groups, normal (A), negative (B), positive (C), combination 1 (D), and combination 2 (E). Blood sampling was conducted on the 14th and 28th day and checked using a Mindray-BA-88A Semi Auto Chemistry Analyzer machine. The results showed that the urea level in combination group 1 was lower (p<0.05) compared to the negative group on day 28th, while the creatinine level in combination group 1 had a low value and was not significantly different on 14th and 28th day. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that giving combination 1 is the best dose in this study in reducing urea levels and maintaining creatinine levels in nephrolithiasis model mice.

Judul: Development of IPB Linux Open Source Distribution for Business (ILOSbiz)
Abstrak: The objective of this research is to develop a Linux distribution, ILOSbiz, targeted for office use. This distribution is built through remastering another established distribution, similar to the previously developed ILOS in 2008. In order to know the needed applications to include in ILOSbiz, a survey was conducted involving 15 IPB staffs. We experimented with OpenSUSE and PCLinuxOS using KIWI Image System and My LiveCD to remaster, respectively. PCLinuxOS with My LiveCD was chosen for the final ILOSbiz as it gave better flexibility in the remastering. Comparison with ILOS shows that ILOSbiz has better hardware support.
