Judul: Natrium lignosulfonat sebagai agen pendispersi pada mortar
Abstrak: Lignosulphonate, a modification product of lignin waste from pulp and paper industry can be used as water reducer in mortar mixture. This substance can influence the mechanical characteristic of mortar such as diameter of flow, flexural strength, compressive strength, and setting time of cement paste. Lignosulphonate shows it function as dispersant on cement hydration at 3 days that analyzed with x-ray difractometer. Research result show that flow of fresh mortar rise with increase concentration (from weight of cement) of synthetic sodium lignosulphonate (NaLS). It show that mortar homogenity also increasing. The result of flexural strength and compressive strength test use synthetic NaLS 0.1-0.3% from weight of cement show that addition synthetic NaLS 0.2% is the best result because it has the biggest of flexural strenght and compressive strength value. Initial setting time of cement paste increase, about 50% with addition of synthetic NaLS 0.2%. Whereas the final setting time decrease, about 8%. Cement hydration test show increase hydration product peak, Ca(OH)2 dan calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H).

Judul: Pemanfaatan Karet Alam Sebagai Aditif Pada Mortar Untuk Meningkatkan Mutu Jalan Semen Beton
Abstrak: Nowadays, natural rubber consumption in Indonesia is relatively low. By diversification of natural rubber uses as additional mixture for concrete road is expected to increase its consumption. At this time, concrete road doesn’t use latex, so it will less flexible and susceptible to crack. Also this matter can’t make concrete road comfortable to use. Therefore, with admixture of latex to the cement may be able to increase flexural strength. The objectives of this research were to know type and dose of stabilizing agent for suitable admixture of latex and cement, and to know the effect of type of latex and rubber dose as additional mixture for mortar. This research consisted of two steps. First step was preliminary research which used type (Emal, Emulgen and Casein) and dose (1, 3, 5 and 7%) of stabilizing agents to determine a suitable admixture of latex and cement. Second step was main research where the effects of latex on mortar was determined. Types of latex tried were Centrifuge Latex (LP), Double Centrifuge Latex (LDS) and Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex (LDPNR). Rubber doses of 0 (control), 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 were used. When latex was mixed with cement, it agglomerated. Therefore, suitable type and dose of stabilizing agent was needed. The best stabilizing agent was Casein of 7% because it could maintain the setting time to almost 210 minutes. This combination was used in main research. The highest initial weight was obtained from LDS, i.e. 261.25 g, whereas final weight, i.e. 266.70 g. Rubber dose of 1% gave the highest initial weight, i.e. 268.70 g and final weight, i.e. 272.83 g. Final weight would be heavier than initial weight. The more rubber dose used in mixture mortar, the less weight of mortar produced. Mortar added by latex showed lighter weight than its control. LDS gave a significant effect on mortar’s compressive strength, whereas LDPNR didn’t have significant effect. LDS gave the highest compressive strength, i.e. 176.60 kg/cm2. Rubber dose of 1% gave the highest compressive strength, i.e. 200.67 kg/cm2. The more rubber dose used, the less compressive strength of mortar produced. LDS gave highest flexural strength than LP and LDPNR, i.e. 33.62 kg/cm2. Rubber dose of 1%, i.e. 36.77 kg/cm2 gave the highest flexural strength. LDS dose of 7% gave the highest flexural strength, but its compressive strength was low. Therefore, to produce strong and flexible mortar could be used LDS with dose of 1%.

Judul: Theileriosis pada domba dan kambing akibat infeksi theileria ovis dan theileria hirci
Abstrak: Theileriosis adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan Boleh protozoa dari genus Theileria dan ditularkan melalui vektor caplak. Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci pernah dimasukkan dalam genus Gonderia sehingga penyakit yang disebabkan oleh penyakit ini mempunyai beberapa nama diantaranya Benign Ovine and Caprine Gonderiosis atau Benign Ovine and Caprine Theileriosis (disebabkan oleh infeksi Theile- ria ovis). Sedang yang disebabkan oleh infeksi Theileria hirci diberi nama Malignant Ovine and Caprine Gonderiosis Malignant Ovine and Caprine Theileriosis (Levine, 1961). Soulsby (1982) dan Jensen (1983), memasukkan Theileria hirci dan Theileria ovis dalam genus Theileria, famili Theileriidae, ordo Piroplasmida, subklas Piroplasmia dan dalam kelas Sporozoa. Menurut hasil pemeriksaan theileriosis pada domba dan kambing di Indonesia periode 1 April 1981 sampai 31 Maret 1982 di Propinsi Sumatera Barat di Daerah Tingkat II Pasaman Kecamatan Talamun ditemukan pada 2 ekor kambing kacang, Kecamatan Sungai Beremas ditemukan pada 3 ekor kambing kacang dan di Daerah Tingkat II Padang Pariaman, Kecamatan Pariaman ditemukan pada 1 ekor kambing kacang (Informasi Keswan, 1982). Daerah penyebaran Theileria ovis yang pernah dilapor- kan adalah Afrika Tengah, Afrika Barat, Afrika Timur, Afrika Selatan, Perancis, Jerman, Hongaria, Sardinia dan diduga India. Sedangkan penyebaran Theileria hirci meli- puti Afrika Utara, Eropa Selatan, Irak dan Turki. Bentuk Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci pada domba dan kambing dalam eritrosit disebut piroplasma dan bentuk dalam limfosit disebut Koch bodies atau skizon. Bentuk dalam vektor caplak adalah zigot dan kinet. Di dalam eritrosit parasit ini mempunyai beberapa macam bentuk yaitu, bentuk bulat, oval, batang, bentuk buah pir atau koma dan bentuk seperti anaplasma. Bentuk dalam limfosit berupa skizon yang terdiri dari makroskizon dan mikroskizon. Penularan Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci dari hewan satu ke hewan lain secara alam dilakukan oleh vektor caplak secara stage to stage. Vektor dari Theileria ovis adalah caplak dari genus Rhipicephalus, Dermacentor, Hae- mophysalis dan Ornithodorus. Sedangkan vektor dari Thei- leria hirci yaitu caplak dari genus Rhipicephalus dan di- duga Ornithodorus. Penularan secara buatan dapat dilakukan dengan cara mekanik (penyuntikan dengan aplikasi intravena, subkutan dan intraperitoneal)…dst
