Judul: Efek Berbagai Jenis Pakan Kedelai (Glycine max L. Merrill) terhadap Produksi Hormon Estrogen pada Tikus Sprague Dawley Betina
Abstrak: Soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) is a plant that contains high nutritional components. Researchs suggested that soybean contains high phytoestrogens, called isoflavones. This study aimed to measure the effect of soy feed contained isoflavones with three different concentration through the estrogen hormone level of Sprague Dawley female rats. There are 7 groups treatment (each group of 4 rats) which consists of a negative control group with feed casein (KN), 3 groups of feed with soybean powder 100% concentration (K1), 50% (K2), and 10% (K3) and 3 three other groups were given feed with soy protein isolate 100% concentration (IPK1), 50% (IPK2), and 10% (IPK3). The concentration of the hormone estrogen in the blood serum was measured by ELISA method (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay). Results showed the source of isoflavones and the different protein levels were significantly different (p <0.05) the levels of the hormone estrogen of female mice with soybean powder treatment and not significantly different (p> 0.05) for soy protein isolate treatment. The concentration of the hormone estrogen increased as fed treatment soy 10% (K3), isolate 10% (IPK3), 50% (IPK2), and 100% (IPK1). Its concentration is 1455 ± 942.15 pg/mL, 939 ± 430.30 pg/mL, 869.44 ± 685.38 pg/mL, and 850 ± 46.39 pg/mL

Abstrak: Isoflavone is a phytoestrogen. It can trigger both of estrogenic and antiestrogenic effects. Soybean was known as main source of isoflavone. It was suspected that soybean isovlavone had an antiestrogenic effect against body weight and androgen level of male rats. The objective of this research was to examine the influence of soybean isoflavone feeding against the body weight and androgen level of Sprague-Dawley male rats. Twenty eight rats were divided into seven groups which consist of one negative control group and six experimental groups (three groups were given soybean powder feedings (K1, K2, and K3) and three groups on soybean isolate feedings (I1, I2, and I3). The examined parameters were body weight, feeding consumption-efficiency, feces weight, and serum androgen levels (testosterone and dihydrotestosterone). The result showed that K2, K3, I1, I2, and I3 feeding increased body weight of male rats, whereas K1 feeding decreased them. The isoflavones used in this research has significantly reduced (p<0.05) androgen testosterone serum level. The highest reduction average percentage was on group K2 (95.11%), whiles the lowest percentage, on the other hand (16.24%) was observed on the group of I2 feeding. However, each soybean isoflavone-containing feed has insignificantly increased (p>0.05) androgen dihydrotestosterone. The highest average percentage of this increase was seen at the group of K2 feeding (325.44%), while the lowest one was on group of K1 feeding (175.05%).

Judul: Penentuan Posisi Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) dengan Metode Dead Reckoning
Abstrak: AUV adalah wahana otonom bawah air yang memiliki berbagai sensor untuk akuisisi data. Alat ini dapat memudahkan survey bawah air karena bentuknya yang ringan. Misi AUV dibuat lalu disimpan ke dalam memori AUV. Penyelesaian misi memerlukan sistem navigasi yang akurat. GPS tidak bisa bekerja di dalam air sehingga dibutuhkan metode navigasi selain GPS. Dead reckoning adalah metode penentuan posisi dengan menghitung arah dan gerak AUV. Persamaan model kecepatan konstan digunakan untuk mengestimasi posisi pada saat t. Akurasi metode ini dipengaruhi banyak hal termasuk kesalahan sensor dan kondisi lingkungan. Misi dilakukan dalam 2 jalur berbeda sebanyak 3 kali. Jalur yang memiliki panjang lebih besar mempunyai kesalahan posisi yang tinggi. Ha ini disebabkan galat yang dihasilkan dead reckoning terakumulasi selama misi. Kesalahan tersebut dapat diatasi dengan memperhitungkan kondisi lingkungan pada program dead reckoning.
