Judul: Pengaruh Kapasitas Adaptasi terhadap Resiliensi Pelaku Usaha Sektor Pariwisata di Masa Pandemi Covid-19 (Kasus: Pelaku Usaha di Desa Wisata Cibuntu, Kecamatan Pasawahan, Kabupaten Kuningan)
Abstrak: Kebijakan Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat saat pandemi Covid-19 menyebabkan terjadinya penurunan jumlah wisatawan sehingga mengharuskan pelaku usaha melakukan berbagai upaya untuk tetap bertahan. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk mencapai resiliensi yaitu dengan melakukan adaptasi terhadap perubahan yang terjadi akibat pandemi Covid-19. Maka dari itu, tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk menganalisis pengaruh kapasitas adaptasi terhadap resiliensi pelaku usaha sektor pariwisata di masa pandemi Covid-19. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode kuantitatif yang didukung metode kualitatif melalui wawancara mendalam kepada informan. Adapun responden dalam penelitian ini diperoleh melalui teknik simple random sampling kepada 35 pelaku usaha di Desa Cibuntu yang kemudian dilakukan uji statistik menggunakan uji regresi linear sederhana. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat kapasitas adaptasi berpengaruh terhadap resiliensi pelaku usaha, arah pengaruh yang positif pada hasil uji regresi mengartikan semakin tinggi kapasitas adaptasi maka semakin tinggi juga resiliensi pelaku usaha sektor pariwisata di masa pandemi Covid-19., The policy of imposing restrictions on community activities during the Covid-19 pandemic has caused a decrease in the number of tourists, this requires business actors to make various efforts to survive. Efforts that can be made to achieve resilience are by adapting to changes that occur due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of adaptive capacity in the resilience of tourism sector business actors during the Covid-19 pandemic. The method used is a quantitative one, which is supported by a qualitative one through in-depth interviews with informants. The respondents in this study were obtained through a simple random sampling technique of 35 business actors in Cibuntu Village, which then carried out statistical tests using simple linear regression tests. The results show that there is an influence of adaptive capacity on the resilience of business actors, the direction of a positive influence on the regression test findings shows that the business actors in the tourism sector were more resilient to the Covid-19 pandemic the higher their capacity for adaptation.

Judul: Community Resilience Around Nature Tourism Situ Gunung in the Era of COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstrak: Pandemi COVID-19 telah menyebabkan kerugian pada sektor pariwisata dan masyarakat sekitarnya, termasuk masyarakat sekitar kawasan wisata alam Situ Gunung. Adaptasi diperlukan masyarakat untuk mencapai resiliensi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis persepsi masyarakat terhadap dampak, strategi adaptasi dan strategi mitigasinya dalam situasi pandemi COVID-19. Metode yang digunakan adalah survei rumah tangga dengan menggunakan kuesioner dan wawancara berdasarkan metode penentuan sampel dengan tabel Isaac dan Michael pada tingkat kesalahan 10%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pandemi COVID-19 telah berdampak ekonomi pada kehidupan masyarakat namun tidak menimbulkan dampak sosial. Kapasitas adaptasi masyarakat masih rendah, strategi adaptasi dilakukan oleh masyarakat dengan kondisi perekonomian rentan berdasarkan karakteristik pekerjaannya. Strategi mitigasi sudah dimiliki masyarakat namun masih dalam inisiatif di tingkat rumah tangga, The COVID-19 pandemic has caused losses to the tourism sector and surrounding communities, including the communities around the Situ Gunung natural tourism area. Adaptation is necessary for society to achieve resilience. This study aims to analyze people's perception of the impact, adaptation strategy, and mitigation strategy in the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic. The method used is a household survey using questionnaires and interviews based on the determining samples method with Isaac and Michael tables at a 10% error rate. The results showed that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative economic impact on people's lives but has no negative social impact. The adaptation capacity of the community is still low, the adaptation strategy is carried out by people with vulnerable economic conditions based on the characteristics of their job. The community, particularly at a household level, already has mitigation strategies.

Judul: Sintesis Glukosa Oleat dengan Berbantuan Gelombang Mikro
Abstrak: Carbohydrate-based esters of fatty acids are nonionic surfactants which are nontoxic, odorless, tasteless, and biodegradable. Glucose oleic acid is one of them. It can be synthesized by reacting glucose pentaacetate (GPA) and methyl oleate with conventional heating for 6 hours, which is slow and time-consuming. Therefore, organic synthesis has been developed by employing microwave irradiation, so called Microwave- Assisted Organic Synthesis (MAOS). This research synthesized glucose oleic acid, from GPA and methyl oleate using MAOS method, to reduce time of reaction and better yield. The parameters observed were melting point (for GPA), free fatty acid content (for methyl oleate), functional group analysis using Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and percent of yield. Reaction between GPA and glucose oleic acid was transesterification, while those of methyl oleate was esterification. GPA and glucose oleic acid using MAOS gave faster time of reaction, 5-10 minutes. The results showed that GPA, methyl oleate, and glucose oleic acid were well synthesized, as shown by FTIR spectra. The yield of GPA was 68,52%, with melting point was 94–111 °C. Methyl oleate gave 95,69% yield. Free fatty acid content of methyl oleate was 2,23%. The yield of glucose oleic acid was 47,18%.
