Judul: Formulasi Sagon dari Tepung Komposit Berbasis Sukun (Arthocarpus altilis) sebagai Alternatif Pangan Darurat untuk Anak
Abstrak: Children are the most vulnerable to malnutrition after natural disasters . The purpose of this research was to develop sagon product based on composite flour of breadfruit (Arthocarpus altilis) as an alternative to emergency food for children. Emergency food product was developed from Indonesia traditional food with increased protein and minerals content. The design used in this study was a complete randomized design with factors such as the types of formula. The results showed that the types of formula were not significantly affect in the organoleptic properties and chemical properties of the product (p>0.05). Water and fat content of the product is low enough so that it can extend the shelf life of the product. Sagon can be considered as a high-energy food, Ca, Fe, Zn, dietary fiber as well as a source of protein. Nutritional need of child at snack time can be met by consuming 2.5—5 sachets per day. Sagon product is acceptable with acceptance rate of 86%.

Judul: Formulasi Sup Jagung-Susu Sebagai Pangan Darurat Bagi Korban bencana Alam.
Abstrak: Pangan darurat adalah pangan yang dibuat untuk memenuhi kebutuhan gizi korban bencana alam. Sebagai negara yang rawan akan bencana alam, Indonesia perlu untuk terus mengembangkan dan menyediakan pangan darurat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat sup jagung-susu yang dapat digunakan sebagai pangan darurat dan diharapkan memiliki efek antidepresan. Bahan baku yang digunakan dalam pembuatan sup jagung-susu ini berasal dari jagung dan susu. Jagung dipilih karena merupakan komoditas tanaman pangan terbesar kedua setelah padi di Indonesia dan kandungan gizinya dapat dimanfaatkan dalam mengembangkan produk pangan darurat. Sementara itu susu dipilih karena merupakan sumber protein, terutama asam amino triptofan yang menjadi prekursor dalam sintesis serotonin yang dapat mendestimulasi saraf pusat sehingga diperoleh efek antidepresi. Formulasi sup jagung-susu menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan variabel bebas berupa rasio penambahan jagung dan susu dengan 5 level. Variabel terikat pada formulasi ini yaitu respon dari panelis pada uji organoleptik berupa uji rating hedonik untuk melihat kesukaan sensori para panelis terhadap sup jagung-susu. Formula sup jagung-susu yang disukai oleh panelis adalah yang menggunakan perbandingan antara jagung dan susunya seimbang. Formula yang disukai tersebut selanjutnya dilakukan uji proksimat dengan hasil kadar air sebesar 92.18 ± 0.02 %, kadar abu sebesar 1.01 ± 0.10 %, kadar lemak sebesar 0.62 ± 0.03 %, kadar protein sebesar 0.25 ± 0.09 %, dan kadar karbohidrat by difference sebesar 5.93 ± 0.05 %. Berdasarkan hasil analisis tersebut terbukti adanya kandungan L-tryptophan sebesar 424.98 ± 0.78 mg/L yang merupakan prekursor antidepresan.

Judul: Posisi Filogenetik Kura-Kura Carettochelys Insculpta  (Reptillia: Testudinata)
Abstrak: Carettochelys insculpta is an endemic freshwater turtle of southern Papua and northern Australia. Phylogenetic position of this turtle is remain unresolved until now. Most of the research conducted show close relationships of C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. However, some of the research show distance between C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. This research is conducted to analyze phylogenetic relationship between C. insculpta and other members of Testudinata using 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and both gene as markers. DNA samples were obtained from three different organisms of C. insculpta. Two species used as outgroups were Alligator mississippiensis and Iguana iguana. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using Neighbor-Joining method with Felsenstein 1981 (F81) modeltest. A polytomy tree of Testudinata was produced by using 12S rRNA gene. However, analysis using 16S rRNA and both genes as markers confirmed that C. insculpta was located between the Chelonidae and the Trionychidae family.
