Judul: Evaluation of Gonad Development of Eels (Anguilla bicolor bicolor) Fed with Formulated Feed with Turmeric Supplementation (Curcuma longa)
Abstrak: Permasalahan dalam kegiatan pembenihan sidat salah satunya adalah sulit didapatkan induk matang gonad dalam wadah budidaya dan pertumbuhannya yang lambat. Kunyit yang mengandung kukurmin diketahui bersifat estrogenik, dapat menginduksi vitellogenesis pada ikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh suplementasi kunyit dalam pakan formulasi IPB terhadap perkembangan gonad ikan sidat. Ikan sidat berukuran 455±245 g/ekor (60.8±44.5 cm) diberi perlakuan pakan komersial (K), pakan formulasi non suplementasi (NS), dan pakan disuplementasi kunyit (S). Setiap perlakuan terdiri dari 10 ekor sidat dengan individu sebagai ulangan. Ikan dipelihara dalam kolam beton berukuran 3 x 1.5 x 1.3 m dan diberi pakan 1% bobot tubuh per hari, pagi dan sore. Variabel yang dianalisis adalah pertumbuhan bobot mutlak (PBM), pertumbuhan panjang mutlak (PPM), digestive track somatic index (DTSI), indeks hepatosomatik (HIS), dan indeks gonadosomatik (IGS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pakan formulasi IPB disuplementasi kunyit mengindikasikan peningkatan PBM, PPM, DTSI, dan GSI dibandingkan dengan pakan komersial. Suplementasi kunyit dapat digunakan untuk mempercepat pematangan gonad sidat., One of the problems in eel hatchery activities is that it is difficult to obtain mature gonads in cultivation containers and their growth is slow. Turmeric containing curcurmin is known to be estrogenic and can induce vitellogenesis in fish. This study aims to analyze the effect of turmeric supplementation in IPB formulated feed on the development of eel fish gonads. Eel fish measuring 455 ± 245 g/fish (60.8 ± 44.5 cm) were treated with commercial feed (K), nonsupplemented formulated feed (NS), and turmeric supplemented feed (S). Each treatment consisted of 10 eels with individuals as replicates. Fish are kept in concrete ponds measuring 3 x 1.5 x 1.3 m and fed 1% of body weight per day, morning and evening. The variables analyzed were absolute weight growth (PBM), absolute length growth (PPM), digestive track somatic index (DTSI), hepatosomatic index (HIS), and gonadosomatic index (IGS). The research results showed that IPB formulated feed supplemented with turmeric indicated an increase in PBM, PPM, DTSI, and GSI compared to commercial feed. Turmeric supplementation can be used to accelerate eel gonad maturation.

Judul: Induction of Gonadal Maturation of Eel Anguilla bicolor bicolor with Oodev and Estradiol-17β through Meal
Abstrak: Ikan sidat (Anguilla sp.) betina matang gonad berukuran >500 g memerlukan waktu pemeliharaan yang panjang sehingga diperlukan metode untuk mempercepat pematangan gonad. Salah satu upaya tersebut yaitu melalui manipulasi reproduksi secara hormonal. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempercepat pematangan gonad sidat menggunakan hormon Estradiol-17β dan Oodev. Sidat berukuran 250-290 g diinduksi dengan hormon Oodev dan Estradiol-17β metode oral melalui pakan yang disuplementasi dengan tepung kunyit 5 g/kg pakan. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) tiga perlakuan dan satu kontrol. Padat tebar sebanyak 10 ekor/perlakuan. Dosis hormon perlakuan dicampur dalam pakan terdiri dari kontrol (0 mL/kg ikan hormon), hO2 (1 mL/kg ikan Oodev (PMSG + AD), hO1E3 (1 mL/kg ikan (Oodev (PMSG + AD) + 3 mg E2), dan hO1E6 (1 mL/kg ikan (Oodev (PMSG + AD) + 6 mg E2). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan hO1E6 memberikan nilai terbaik untuk LPS (4,004±0,96%/hari), AG (126,456±29,098 cm), IGS (1.30±0,51%), persentasi betina 80%, nilai hematokrit (39,57±3,36%) dan eritrosit ((1,83±0,21)x106 sel/mm3 ) (P<0,05), sedangkan untuk parameter PPM, IHS, diameter mata, faktor kondisi, DTSI tidak berbeda nyata (P>0,05). Pemberian kombinasi hormon 1 mL/kg ikan Oodev dan 6 mL/kg ikan Estradiol-17β dapat mempercepat pertumbuhan bobot, pematangan gonad, dan feminisasi sidat. Kombinasi hormon tersebut dapat menjadi alternatif untuk mempercepat pertumbuhan bobot dan pematangan gonad pada kegiatan budidaya pembesaran dan pembenihan sidat., Eel (Anguilla sp.) mature female gonads measuring >500 g require a long maintenance time so a method is needed to accelerate gonadal maturation. One of these efforts is through hormonal manipulation of reproduction. This study aims to accelerate the gonadal maturation of eels using the hormones Estradiol-17β and Oodev. Eels measuring 250-290 g were induced with the hormone Oodev and Estradiol-17β orally through feed supplemented with turmeric flour 5 g/kg feed. The experimental design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatments and a control with 10 animals/treatment. The dose of treatment hormone mixed in the feed consisted of control (0 mL/kg fish hormone), hO2 (1 mL/kg Oodev fish (PMSG + AD), hO1E3 (1 mL/kg fish (Oodev (PMSG + AD) + 3 mg E2 ), and hO1E6 (1 mL/kg fish (Oodev (PMSG + AD) + 6 mg E2). The results showed that hO1E6 treatment gave the best value for SGR (4.004±0.96%/day), AG (126.456±29.098 cm ), GSI (1.30±0.51%), 80% female percentage, hematocrit value (39.57±3.36%) and erythrocytes ((1.83±0.21)x106 cells/mm3 ) (P<0 0.05), while for parameters Lm, IHS, eye diameter, condition factor, DTSI was not significantly different (P>0.05).The administration of a combination of hormones 1 mL/kg Oodev fish and 6 mL/kg Estradiol-17β fish could accelerate weight growth, gonadal maturation, and eel feminization.The combination of these hormones can be an alternative to accelerate weight growth and gonad maturation in eel rearing and hatchery cultivation activities.

Judul: Construction of Strongly Optimal Binary Linear Code with Minimum Distance 9 and 11
Abstrak: A binary linear code of length n over q F is a subspace of n q F . A code has three parameters that attached to it, namely length, dimension, and minimum distance. A code with length n, dimension k and minimum distance d is often called [n, k, d ]-code. Usually, when two parameters are given, then we want to find a code that has the best value for the last parameter. Based on Gilbert- Varshamov bound, if a [n, k, d ]-code exists and can not be expanded, we call it a strongly optimal code. In this paper, we construct strongly optimal code with minimum distance 9 and 11. In constructing the code, we created a theorem and algorithm based on Gilbert-Varshamov bound before we implement the algorithm to MAPLE programming language. Because of computational limitations, the program can only construct up to k = 10 for d = 9 and k = 12 for d = 11.
