Judul: Suatu Studi Tentang daerah Penangkapan Ikan Madidihang (Thunnus albacares) untuk Komoditi Ekspor di Perairan Indonesia
Abstrak: Yellowfin Tuna (Thunnus albacares) merupakan salah satu komoditi hayati laut yang mempunyai arti ekonomis yang cukup tinggi sebagai komoditas ekspor. Harga lelang ikan Yellowfin tuna segar yang tercatat pada bulan Agustus 1991 pasar Tsukuji dan Shimizu adalah berkisar antara USD1,45 sampai USD20.34 untuk tiap satu kilogramnya (Anonimous, 1991). Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pola musim penangkapan dan mengkaji daerah penangkapan keberadaan Yellowfin tuna (Madidihang, albacares) selama lima tahun (1981 - Thunnus 1985) dari data PT Perikanan Samodra Besar, dengan pendekatan nilai hook rate. Tentunya dengan harapan agar hasil penelitian ini dapat bermanfaat untuk membantu mempermudah penentuan daerah penangkapan Yellowfin tuna dalam pengoperasian longline untuk komiditi fresh tuna.

Judul: Estimasi Daerah Penangkapan Madidihang (Thunnus albacares) dengan Tonda di Selatan Teluk Palabuhanratu
Abstrak: Yellowfin tuna becomes a major of Indonesian’s export commodity because of it’s demand and high selling price. To fulfill the needs of yellowfin tuna are highly influenced by the condition of fishing ground. Therefore, information about the potential yellowfin tuna’s fishing grounds is needed by fisheries. The objectives of this research are to determine the composition length size and productivity of yellowfin tuna, to determine the spatial-temporal distribution of sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a, and to estimate the potential fishing ground of yellowfin tuna in southern bay of Palabuhanratu. This research was conducted from May to August 2013. The research show that the dominant catched pelagic fish are skipjack (43%), yellowfin tuna (37%), bigeye tuna (12%), Indo Pacific blue marlin (5%), and common dolphin fish (3%). In addition, the average distributions for sea surface temperature is 27.6-30.6ºC. Meanwhile the average distributions for chlorophyll-a is 0.1-0.2 mg/m3. Moreover, the yellowfin tuna’s fishing ground was estimated by using four indicators, namely length size of yellowfin tuna, catch per unit effort (CPUE), sea surface temperature, and chlorophyll-a concentration. Finally, the potential fishing ground of yellowfin tuna in the south Palabuhanratu bay is located in the southern part which is connected with international sea (exclusive economic zone) comparing to the area in southwestern part closer to the coast.

Judul: Mathematical model of Hematopoietic Stem Cell in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia with and without Therapy
Abstrak: Leukemia or blood cancer is a diverse group of neoplastic disease, characterized by the multiplication of abnormal leukocytes or malignant transformation of blood-forming cells in bone marrow and lymphoid tissues. One of the most common types of leukemia is Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), which is usually diagnosed by the presence of certain chromosomal abnormalities, the so-called Philadelphia chromosome (Ph). One of the treatments of CML is Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF). In this paper, we discuss two Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) models, i.e. HSC without treatment and HSC with G-CSF treatment. The model of HSC without treatment included three equations representing the dynamics of HSC, leukocyte and platelet. Whereas, the model of HSC with G-CSF treatment includes the previous three equations and adds two more equations representing G-CSF injection and G-CSF circulation. The stability behavior of the system approaching the equilibrium points in the simulation study is carried out using Mathematica 7.0. The simulation results show that the G-CSF treatment can successfully decrease the number of HSC, which means reducing the CML.
