Judul: Tingkat Risiko Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) Pada Penebangan Pohon Jati: Analisis REBA dan RULA
Abstrak: Penebangan pohon jati di Indonesia menggunakan chainsaw masih didominasi dengan sistem munual material handling. Kegiatan dengan sistem ini memiliki tingkat risiko musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) yang tinggi akibat disertai beban chainsaw yang berat dan postur tubuh janggal/ekstrem pada operator. Diperlukan tindakan untuk mengurangi risiko MSDs dalam kegiatan penebangan jati dengan analisis postur kerja ekstrem yang efektif dan aksi ergonomi. Penilaian risiko MSDs dilakukan menggunakan instrumen Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) dan Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). Hasil analisis postur kerja menggunakan metode REBA memiliki tingkat risiko MSDs yang bervariasi daripada RULA yang secara keseluruhan kegiatan penebangan jati berisiko ergonomi sangat tinggi. Sehingga penilaian postur kerja pada kegiatan penebangan pohon jati, instrumen RULA lebih disarankan karena sensitivitas yang dimiliki lebih tinggi daripada REBA. Adapun aksi ergonomi untuk mengurangi risiko pada postur kerja operator chainsaw berupa perbaikan postur dengan menghindari postur membungkuk dan mengganti dengan postur berlutut, menggunakan alat chainsaw dengan beban yang lebih ringan dan pemeliharaan alat yang baik, serta adanya penambahan durasi istirahat operator untuk relaksasi otot tubuh., The felling of teak trees in Indonesia using chainsaws is still dominated by the munual material handling system. Activities with this system have a high level of risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) due to heavy chainsaw loads and awkward/extreme postures for operators. Action is needed to reduce the risk of MSDs in teak felling activities by analysing effective extreme work postures and ergonomic actions. MSDs risk assessment is carried out using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) instruments. The results of work posture analysis using the REBA method have varying levels of MSDs risk than RULA, which overall teak logging activities are very high ergonomic risk. So that the assessment of work postures in teak logging activities, the RULA instrument is more recommended because of its higher sensitivity than REBA. As for ergonomic actions to reduce the risk in the work posture of chainsaw operators in the form of posture improvement by avoiding slouching postures and replacing them with kneeling postures, using chainsaw tools with lighter loads and good tool maintenance, and increasing the duration of operator breaks for relaxation of body muscles.

Judul: Penilaian Postur Kerja Menggunakan Analisis REBA dan RULA pada Kegiatan Penebangan Jati Masak Tebang
Abstrak: Salah satu kegiatan pemanenan hutan adalah pemanenan jati masak tebang yang terdiri dari kegiatan penebangan, pembagian batang, penyaradan, muat bongkar, dan pengangkutan. Kegiatan pemanenan jati memiliki risiko yang membahayakan kesehatan dan keselamatan pekerjanya seperti risiko Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). Karena itu diperlukan tindakan pencegahan agar mengurangi risiko MSDs dalam kegiatan penebangan jati dengan analisis postur kerja ekstrem dan aksi ergonomi. Postur kerja esktrem dipilih melalui analisis Range of Motion (ROM), yang kemudian dianalisis risiko postur kerja dengan metode Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) dan Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa segmen tubuh yang sangat berpengaruh terhadap risiko MSDs yang diterima oleh operator penebangan jati ialah bagian punggung, lengan atas, serta besaran beban yang diterima. Aksi ergonomi yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengurangi risiko MSDs berupa menggunakan postur kerja rekomendasi, menghindari postur membungkuk dan mengganti dengan postur berlutut, menggunakan alat chainsaw yang memiliki beban lebih ringan dan pemeliharaan alat yang baik, serta adanya waktu istirahat aktif bagi operator., One of the forest harvesting activities is teak harvesting that consists of felling, trunk dividing, skidding, loading and unloading, and transportation. Teak harvesting activities have risks that endanger the health and safety of their workers, such as the risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). Therefore, preventive measures are needed to reduce the risk of MSDs in teak felling activities by analyzing extreme work postures and ergonomic actions. Extreme work postures are selected through Range of Motion (ROM) analysis, then followed by analyzing work posture risk using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) methods. The results of the analysis show that the body segments that greatly influence the risk of MSDs received by operators of teak felling are the back, upper arms, and the amount of load received. Ergonomic actions that can be taken to reduce the risk of MSDs include using recommended work postures, avoiding slouching postures and replacing them with kneeling postures, using chainsaws that have a lighter load and good maintenance, as well as having active rest periods for operators.

Abstrak: The objective of this research was to purified and characterized yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) from Indonesian native chicken eggs. Fourty eggs were collected from Cibanteng, Ciampea, Cinangneng, and Darmaga. IgY from egg yolk were puri$ed with Water Soluble Fraction (WSF) method combinated by 12% PEG 6000 and 40% Amonium sulpha methodt. IgY molecular weight was established by SDS-PAGE and the concentration was determinated by UV specfrophotometer. The result show that average IgY concentration from native chicken eggs was 7.86 mngml. Molecular weight of native chicken IgY was 180 and I70 kDa..
