Judul: Status mikoriza hutan pantai dan hutan mangrove pasca tsunami studi kasus di Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam dan Nias
Abstrak: This research aimed 1) to study status of arbuscular mycrorrhizal fungus (AMF) in mangrove and coastal forest post tsunami disaster, 2) to study the relationship of soil phosphorus content and number of AMF spores and AMF infection of mangrove and coastal forest post tsunami disaster. Research results show that there were variability in spore numbers in the field studied. The spore numbers in mangrove forest were found as 359, 235, 118 and 160 spores per 50 g of soil in Meulaboh, Banda Aceh, Pidie and Nias respectively. Meanwhile, in coastal forest were 587, 297, 265 and 158 spores per 50 g in Meulaboh, Banda Aceh, Pidie and Nias respectively. The root of Rhizophora sp. and Casuarina equisetifolia found colonized by AMF both in mangrove and coastal forest. Number of spores were negatively correlated to soil phosphorus content, however, there were tendency positive correlation between root infection and soil phosphorus content.

Judul: Studi Status Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskula Di Areal Rehabilitasi Pasca Penambangan Nikel (Studi Kasus PT INCO Tbk. Sorowako, Sulawesi Selatan).
Abstrak: PT INCO Tbk. is one of the biggest nickel mining company in the Asia- Pasific region and has been operated commercially in Indonesia since 1978. It is located at Sorowako, South Sulawesi Indonesia with the area up to 218.000 hectares. The mining operation process is surface mining. It eliminated the existing vegetation, and it will lead to soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, damage of wildlife habitats and degradation of watershed area, considering with these negative impacts a revegetation programme is fully needed (Setiadi 1995). Revegetation that has been done obstacled by the marginal land conditions where soil structure has been damaged and it has became a lateritic soil. It absorbs elements of phosphate (P), which is essential for plant life. It will be poor of Pavailable that can be absorbed by plants. Therefore input for more effective technology and environmentally friendly is needed, among others by applying a bio-technology Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi biofertilizer (AMF). It has some functions, one of them is increasing nutrients absorption, especially P. Therefore, research on the existence of mycorrhizal status needs to be done as an introduction for research and application of mycorrhizal in the rehabilitation field of post- nickel mining. The result of this research is FMA has been associated with all of observed plants. Some potentially plants to be developed are Sengon buto (Enterolobium cyclocarpum), Sengon albizia (Paraserianthes falcataria), Dengen (Dillenia cerrata), Teak (Tectona grandis), Johar (Senna siamea), Kayu angin (Casuarina equisetifolia), Kayu tanduk (Alstonia spectabilis), and Eucalyptus (Eucalytus Urograndis). Several genera that were found are Glomus sp; Acaulospora sp; and Gigaspora sp.

Judul: Perancangan Proses Produksi Telur Asin Rendah Kolesterol
Abstrak: Telur asin merupakan produk olahan telur yang digemari masyarakat, tetapi mengandung kolesterol yang melebihi batasan konsumsi harian manusia. Tahap pengolahan, telur asin direndam dalam larutan khusus guna menurunkan kandungan kolesterol di dalam telur. Proses ini melibatkan pengaturan waktu pemeraman, konsentrasi larutan, dan bahan-bahan lainnya untuk mencapai hasil yang diinginkan. Formulasi telur asin yang terpilih yaitu pemeraman selama 12 hari dalam larutan garam 32,5% yang dicampur bawang putih, sereh, dan daun jeruk cincang, perendaman dalam larutan soda 20% selama 4 jam, dan dikukus selama satu jam. Kadar kolesterol sebesar 233,39 mg/100 g pada hari pertama dan mengalami penurunan menjadi 131,61 mg/100 g pada hari kesepuluh., Salted eggs are a popular egg product among the community, but they contain cholesterol that exceeds the daily human consumption limit. In the processing stage, the salted eggs are immersed in a special solution to reduce the cholesterol content inside the eggs. This process involves adjusting the soaking time, solution concentration, and other ingredients to achieve the desired results. The selected salted egg formulation is marinating for 12 days in 32.5% salt solution mixed with garlic, lemongrass, and chopped lime leaves, marinating in 20% soda solution for 4 hours, and steaming for one hour. The cholesterol level was measured at 233.39 mg/100g on the first day and decreased to 131.61 mg/100g on the tenth day.
