Judul: Fermentasi Biji Kopi Menggunakan Bakteri Selulolitik, Xilanolitik dan Proteolitik Asal Luwak
Abstrak: Civet coffee is fermented coffee which is produced naturally in the digestive tract of mongoose. The production of civet coffee is relied on the availability of the civet, therefore the production is costly. This research aim was to produce synthetic civet coffee by enzymatic fermentation.The enzymes were produced by cellulolytic, xylanolytic, and proteolytic bacteria that were isolated from civet feces. The combination treatment was examined the highest enzymatic production from different bacteriawiththe variation oftemperature during four days. During the fermentation, the produced enzymes were used for hidrolize the substrate. Enzymatic process was determined by changing the total and reducing of sugar, weight losses, protein content and the enzyme activity produced in the substrate. The fermentation was done by cellulolytic bacteria and combination of threebacteria. Alltreatment were resulledan approximate similarcaffein reduction (48%), however the nutrition content indicated by organic acid were shown that thecoffee fermentation has a low oxalic acid and higher butyric, lactic and ascorbic acid.

Abstrak: Civet coffee is a coffee having a high selling price and produced by civet. The purpose of this research was to produce civet like coffee by solid state fermentation using bacteria that isolated from civet’s feces. The research initially was characterized proteolytic bacteria .The fermentation of coffee was held at 30o and 37o C for 4 days. The inoculum (10%, wet base) using xylanolytic bacteria, combination xylanolytic and proteoliyic bacteria, and combination xylanolytic, proteolytic, and cellulolytik bacteria.The best fermentation condition performed by enzyme activity, total sugar, reduction sugar, weight decrease, and degree of polymerization.The fermentation using xylanolytic and combination of two bacteria shown best performance at 37o C and 72 hours incubation time. However, for the fermentation using combination of three bacteria performed best result at 37o C and 72 hours incubation time. In general, the fermentation of coffee result a lower caffeine and oxalic acid content than original civet coffee. However, the ascorbic acid, butyric acid, and lactic acid shown a higher value.

Judul: Transisi Fasa Materi Hadronik ke Materi Kuark pada Inti Bintang Neutron.
Abstrak: Bintang neutron terdiri dari beberapa lapisan yang disusun oleh materi nuklir yang berbeda dengan kerapatan yang semakin tinggi ketika mendekati pusat bintang. Inti luar bintang neutron disusun oleh materi hadronik (nukleon, lepton, dan hyperon), sedangkan inti dalam bintang neutron disusun oleh kuark-kuark bebas (up, down, strange) yang saling berinteraksi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mempelajari bagaimana transisi dari inti luar ke inti dalam bintang neutron dengan menggunakan pendekatan RMF (Relativistic Mean Field) untuk materi hadronik dan CIDDM (Confined Isospin Density Dependent Mass) untuk materi kuark. Tekanan transisi diperoleh ketika potensial kimia barion materi hadronik dan materi kuark bernilai sama. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-TM1 sekitar 87 MeV/fm3 dan diperoleh massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.92M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.62 km. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-G2 sekitar 53 MeV/fm3 dan massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.88M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.16 km. Jenis transisi fasa adalah orde satu ditandai dengan diskontinuitas dalam kerapatan energi (adanya mixed phase). Parameter-parameter pada model nuklir yang digunakan menyebabkan perbedaan kekakuan persamaan keadaan (EOS) dari materi hadronik dan materi kuark sehingga nilai tekanan transisi dari fasa hadronik ke fasa kuark juga berbeda.
