Judul: Infeksi Cacing Nematoda pada Saluran Pencernaan Monyet Ekor Panjang (Macaca fascicularis) di Matraman, Jakarta dan Taman Wisata Alam Telaga Warna, Bogor
Abstrak: Gastrointestinal nematode are common parasite found in warm-blooded animals, including Macaca fascicularis. Infection transmission of parasitic nematode in M. fascicularis can occur intraspesies and interspesies. The existence of macaque in homesite at Matraman, Jakarta allowing the parasite transmission from monkeys to humans, or vice versa. Free-living macaque’s in Nature Recreational Park of Telaga Warna are used as a benchmark to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal nematode infection. Identification results of nematode eggs and larvae in monkeys on Matraman showed Strongyloides 66.67%, Trichostrongylus 58.33% Oesophagostomum 50% and hookworm 45.83%. Identification of nematode eggs and larvae in monkeys at Telaga Warna showed Strongyloides 14.29%, Oesophagostomum 19.05%, Trichostrongylus 19.05%, hookworm 14.29%, Trichuris 14.29% and Ascaris 9.52%. Total prevalence of monkeys in Matraman was at 80.95% and in Telaga Warna 52, 38%. Infection prevalence of parasitic nematode in M.fascicularis seattlement area are bigger than the natural habitat.

Judul: Identifications of Gastrointestinal Parasites in Long-Tailed Monkey (Macaca fascicularis) at The Primate Research Center of IPB  University
Abstrak: Infeksi parasit merupakan salah satu masalah yang sering ditemukan pada satwa primata, termasuk monyet ekor panjang (Macaca fascicularis). Infeksi parasit pada saluran pencernaan perlu diwaspadai karena dapat mengganggu kesehatan monyet ekor panjang di penangkaran dan berpotensi menjadi sumber penyakit zoonotik yang dapat menyebar kepada manusia. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi parasit gastrointestinal pada feses monyet ekor panjang di Pusat Studi Satwa Primata (PSSP) IPB. Sebanyak 69 sampel feses monyet ekor panjang diperiksa menggunakan metode natif dan pewarnaan trichrome untuk mengidentifikasi parasit. Hasil pemeriksaan menunjukkan bahwa terdapat Entamoeba spp., E. polecki, E. coli, E. histolytica/E. dispar, Endolimax nana, Balantidium coli, Iodamoeba bütschlii, Giardia sp., dan Ancylostomatidae, yang diduga bersumber dari air yang digunakan di PSSP IPB. Perubahan konsistensi feses diduga diakibatkan faktor selain infeksi parasit., Parasitic infection is a problem that is often found in nonhuman primates, including the long-tailed monkey (Macaca fascicularis). Parasitic infections in the digestive tract need to be concerned because they can interfere with the well-being of long-tailed monkeys in captivity and have the potential to become a source of zoonotic diseases that can spread to humans. This study aims to identify gastrointestinal parasites in long-tailed monkey feces at the Primate Research Center of IPB University. A total of 69 samples of long-tailed monkey feces were examined using native method and trichrome staining to identify parasites. The results showed that there were Entamoeba spp., E. polecki, E. coli, E. histolytica/E. dispar, Endolimax nana, Balantidium coli, Iodamoeba bütschlii, Giardia sp., and Ancylostomatidae, allegedly derived from the water in PSSP IPB. Change in stool consistency is assumed to be due to factors other than parasitic infection.

Judul: Karakteristik Piezoelektrik Film LaxSr₁-xTiO3 di atas Substrat TCO
Abstrak: Studi material perovskite SrTiO3 sudah banyak dilakukan dan menunjukkan sifat feroelektrik, piezoelektrik, kuantum paraelektrik dan superkonduktor yang baik. Dengan penambahan dopant La2O3 diduga menambah performa sifat piezo dan karakteristik lainnya. Karakteristik film LaxSr₁-xTiO3 (LST) dengan variasi x= 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 terbentuk pada suhu annealing 550 oC di atas substrat TCO melalui metode (Chemical Solution Deposition) CSD dan spin coating dengan 700 rpm pada kondisi suhu ruang dan tekanan atmosfer standar. Hasil menunjukkan, semakin banyak pendadah La maka nilai ketebalan film, ukuran rerata kristalit, parameter kisi, transmitansi, nilai konduktivitas (maksimum 589.7 S/cm pada sampel x=0.04 di frekuensi 10 Hz), nilai konstanta tegangan (c) dan muatan (d) piezo semakin meningkat. Dinamika bentuk grafik nilai tegangan (V) dan konstanta regangan mekanik (s) nampak mirip. Nilai V mencapai 0.127 V untuk x=0.06 (beban 50 g). Nilai maksimum c, d, s masing-masing mencapai 20.07 Vm/N, 1.14x10-8 C/N, 13642.71. Nilai band gap untuk x=0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 masing-masing 3.21 eV, 3.1 eV, 2.6 eV, 2.4 eV. La2O3 menambah performa sifat piezo, sehingga LST berpotensi sebagai sensor tekanan.
