Judul: Kasus Patologi pada Dua Ekor Komodo (Varanus komodoensis)
Abstrak: Studi kasus ini dilakukan untuk mengidentifikasi gambaran patologi anatomi dan histopatologi organ-organ tubuh komodo dalam upaya mengetahui penyebab kematian komodo tersebut. Pada kasus ini dua ekor komodo jantan berusia 11 tahun ditemukan mati pada tanggal masing-masing 2 Juli 2009 dan 26 Mei 2009. Kadaver kedua komodo tersebut dikirim ke Bagian Patologi, Departemen Klinik, Reproduksi, dan Patologi (KRP), FKH IPB, untuk dilakukan pemeriksaan patologi anatomi dan histopatologi. Hasil pengamatan secara patologi ditemukan adanya infestasi caplak pada kulit; emfisema, edema, dan atelektasis pada paru-paru; kardiomiopati pada jantung; serta kongesti dan inflamasi pada beberapa organ dalam lainnya. Berdasarkan hasil temuan patologi di atas, kematian dua ekor komodo ini diduga karena kerusakan beberapa organ internal yang terjadi secara simultan.

Judul: Studi Patomorfologi Kasus Gout Dan Sindrom Uremia Pada Komodo (Varanus Komodoensis) Di Penangkaran
Abstrak: Seekor komodo (Varanus komodoensis) betina ditemukan mati dengan deposisi asam urat yang hebat di berbagai organ. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari patomorfologi berbagai organ komodo akibat deposisi asam urat (gout) dan mengetahui secara kronologis penyebab kematiannya. Sampel jaringan diambil dari jantung, paru-paru, lambung, hati, ginjal, limpa dan ovarium. Selanjutnya jaringan diproses untuk dibuat sediaan histopatologi dan diwarnai dengan Hemathoxylin–Eosin, Periodic Acid–Schiff, dan Methenamin Silver. Secara histopatologi ditemukan lesio di berbagai organ viseral yang mencirikan gout viseralis terutama di ginjal dan kantong jantung, dan ditemukan juga perikarditis, emfisema, glomerulonefritis kronis, gastritis ulseratif et hemoragis, splenitis granulomatosa, oovoritis, candidiasis, dan mineralisasi di berbagai organ. Gagal ginjal karena gout yang hebat menyebabkan terjadinya sindrom uremia. Selain itu ditemukan candidiasis di mukosa lambung. Sebagai kesimpulan, penyebab kematian komodo adalah karena gout viseralis dan sindrom uremia.

Judul: Enhancement of photon absorbtion on BaxSr1-xTiO3 thin films semiconductor using photonic crystals.
Abstrak: In this research, has been conducted BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BST) thin films manufacturing for mole fraction x = 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55; and concentration of 1 molar using chemical solution depositon (CSD) method. The materials, which are used in this research, are barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%], titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28), 97.999%], gallium trioxide [Ga2O3], 2-methoxyethanol [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] and 1 x 1 cm of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass as substrate. Two BST thin films are made that for BST thin films which are doped by 10% galium (BGST) as p-type layer and pure BST solution as n-type. BST solution is made by reacting barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%] and titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28)] into 2-methoxyethanol solvent [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] in accordance with mass gram for each x value. While, BGST solution is made in the same way as BST solution, plus adding gallium at 10% of the mass of BST. Once all materials are reacted, then vibrated using ultrasonic for 90 minutes, and followed by coating BGST / BST on the TCO substrate. Once the layer is formed, then annealed for 15 hours at temperature of 500 °C with increasing rate of 1.67 oC/minute. Characterizations of BST thin films with or without photonic crystals include the absorbance and transmittance in the visible light spectrum, as well as the electrical photoconductivity characterizations. From BST thin films without photonic crystals indicate that our thin films have light absorption area on almost the entire range of the visible light spectrum even to the infrared range with absorption value over than 67.6%, in addition, it can be seen that the maximum absorbance of BST thin films for all mole fractions lie in blue to green light spectrum region, 457 nm ≤ λ ≤ 570 nm and the minimum in yellow to red light spectrum region, 570 nm ≤ λ ≤ 678 nm. The largest absorbance is found at x = 0.25 with average absorbance value of 92.04% and maximum and minimum absorbance peaks at wavelength of 500.89 and 657.72 nm, respectively. At x = 0.35, average absorbance value decreased to 83.55% with maximum and minimum peaks at 505.73 and 613.68 nm, respectively. Then increased to 91.16% at x = 0.45 with maximum and minimum peaks at 506.04 and 618.56 nm, respectively. At x = 0.55, average absorbance value decreased to 80.12% with maximum and minimum peaks at 507.85 and 608.79 nm, respectively. Moreover, it can be seen that the addition of barium mole fraction leads to wider maximum absorbance or minimum transmittance peaks and narrower minimum absorbance or maximum transmittance peaks in the same range of the green and blue & red light spectrums, respectively. BST thin films with photonic crystals show increasing in absorption for all x values in the range of 3.04 into 13.33%. At x = 0.25, average absorbance percentage increased 3.96% from 92.4 into 95.68%, for x = 0.35 average percentage increased 7.07% into 89.45 from 83.55%. Furthermore, average absorbance of BST thin films at x = 0.45 increased 3.04% from 91.16 into 93.93% and x = 0.55 has
