Judul: Analisis gaya spesifik pernotongan parenkhim pelepah dan batang tandan sawit (Eiais guanensis, Jack)
Abstrak: A part of study related to the development of harvesting machinery of palm oil fruits had been conducted to analyze the cutting mechanism of the oil palm leaf parenchyma and the palm oil fruit. These works provided the basic parameters for cutting the leaves and the fruits efiicientty. The data related to the mechanical properties of the leaf and the fruits had never been provided yet, hence in this study, the testing of these properties had been carried out. The specific cutting force of the leaves and the fruits had been analyzed to obtain the relation of the mechanical properties and the parameters of the cutting edge such as the cutting angle (81, sharpness angle (B), and a symmetrical and un symrnetkxl knife. Mathematical models had been developed and validated by direct measurements conducted in this study. The results of the study, showed that the lowest maximum force of the symmetrical knife of 8 = 30' and = I@while, th e highest maximum was obtained for the un-symmetrical knife of 8 = 0' and f3 = 20'. The greater the angk, the higher the maximum force of cutting. The greater the 0 angle, the lower its maximum specific cutting force. The parameter of the symmetrical knife showed that the maximum cutting force was lower compared the un-symmetrical knife. The trend of analyses of maximum cutting power resembled the results analyses of maximum cutting force.

Abstrak: Palm management thesis was carried out to study the cultivation of palm oil in general, in particular to understand the various aspects and factors which support the process of harvesting of oil palm. Thesis (internships) in palm oil plantations, PT Ciliandra Perkasa, First Resources Ltd., village Siabu, district of Kampar regency, Salo, Riau Province, during a four month is the month of February to June 2013. This thesis Plantations underway in using direct and indirect methods. The direct method is used to collect data and information with the interview. The indirect method is a method used to acquire secondary data from the plantations. Results of the analysis of several factors that support the harvesting on afdeling V in general have shown good results. These factors include the harvest criteria with an average of 2 kg-1 item, total harvest labor has labor needs afdeling, 6/7 harvest rotation, and efficiency of harvest showed good results with efficiency >95%. However, the value of the number density of crops still under 15% with an average of 11.77% and the supervision and monitoring of the quality of hanca still less than optimal. Results of comparative analysis of some variables between afdeling I and V differ markedly on the production of fresh fruit bunches of 1485.8 kg/ha (afdeling I) and 1011.7 kg/ha (afdeling V), fruit off 165.5 kg/ha (afdeling I) and 45.5 kg/ha (afdeling V), weight per bunch 11.0 kg/ha (afdeling I) and 13.8 kg/ha (afdeling V), oil production 1651.4 kg/ha (afdeling I) and 1084.9 kg/ha (afdeling V) achievements of kg 1608.7 kg/ha (afdeling I) and 1288.2 kg/ha (afdeling V), and the achievements of ha 3.2 ha/person (afdeling I) 4.8 ha/person (afdeling V) however did not differ markedly on the number of trees, number of bunches of tree, bunches and bunches of accomplishment. It shows that the afdeling I better compared to the comparison of afdeling V based on the topographic form afdeling I flat to wavy and bumpy and hilly afdeling V.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
