Abstrak: Civet coffee is fermented coffee which is produced naturally in the digestive tract of mongoose. The production of civet coffee is relied on the availability of the civet, therefore the production is costly. This research aim was to produce synthetic civet coffee by enzymatic fermentation.The enzymes were produced by cellulolytic, xylanolytic, and proteolytic bacteria that were isolated from civet feces. The combination treatment was examined the highest enzymatic production from different bacteriawiththe variation oftemperature during four days. During the fermentation, the produced enzymes were used for hidrolize the substrate. Enzymatic process was determined by changing the total and reducing of sugar, weight losses, protein content and the enzyme activity produced in the substrate. The fermentation was done by cellulolytic bacteria and combination of threebacteria. Alltreatment were resulledan approximate similarcaffein reduction (48%), however the nutrition content indicated by organic acid were shown that thecoffee fermentation has a low oxalic acid and higher butyric, lactic and ascorbic acid.

Judul: Produksi Kopi Secara Enzimatis Menggunakan Bakteri Proteolitik dan Kombinasi Bakteri Selulolitik dan Xilanolitik Dari Luwak
Abstrak: Civet coffee is a commercial coffee produced from in vivo by civet. The production of civet coffee is rely on the availability and sustainability of civet life cycles. The purpose of this research was to produces civet like coffee by solid substrate fermentation. Coffee pulp (60 mesh) used as a media growth of bacteria and produced enzyme which used by coffee beans. The substrate of fermentation added inoculum at 10% (wet basis) and fermented for 4 days at 30oC and 37oC. Inoculum using a single bacteria (proteolytic), a mix between cellulolytic and xylanolytic bacteria, and a mix between proteolytic, cellulolytic, and xylanolytic bacteria. Data measured were reducing sugar, total sugar, protein content and enzyme activity daily. Coffee beans from the best fermentation for each treatment analyzed by HPLC. Fermentation using proteolytic bacteria shown best performance at 37oC for one day incubation, fermentation using a mix cellulolytic and xylanolytic bacteria at 30oC after three days incubation and the combination of three bacteria similar to using combination of two bacteria. Quality of fermented coffee based on organic acids and caffeine content equivalent to the original civet coffee. For all treatments was lower caffeine contents than civet coffee. Organic acids in fermented coffee shown higher lactate, butyrate, and ascorbate acids and lower oxalate acids. Fermented coffee has a better nutrition contents than original civet coffee.

Judul: Transisi Fasa Materi Hadronik ke Materi Kuark pada Inti Bintang Neutron.
Abstrak: Bintang neutron terdiri dari beberapa lapisan yang disusun oleh materi nuklir yang berbeda dengan kerapatan yang semakin tinggi ketika mendekati pusat bintang. Inti luar bintang neutron disusun oleh materi hadronik (nukleon, lepton, dan hyperon), sedangkan inti dalam bintang neutron disusun oleh kuark-kuark bebas (up, down, strange) yang saling berinteraksi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mempelajari bagaimana transisi dari inti luar ke inti dalam bintang neutron dengan menggunakan pendekatan RMF (Relativistic Mean Field) untuk materi hadronik dan CIDDM (Confined Isospin Density Dependent Mass) untuk materi kuark. Tekanan transisi diperoleh ketika potensial kimia barion materi hadronik dan materi kuark bernilai sama. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-TM1 sekitar 87 MeV/fm3 dan diperoleh massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.92M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.62 km. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-G2 sekitar 53 MeV/fm3 dan massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.88M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.16 km. Jenis transisi fasa adalah orde satu ditandai dengan diskontinuitas dalam kerapatan energi (adanya mixed phase). Parameter-parameter pada model nuklir yang digunakan menyebabkan perbedaan kekakuan persamaan keadaan (EOS) dari materi hadronik dan materi kuark sehingga nilai tekanan transisi dari fasa hadronik ke fasa kuark juga berbeda.
