Judul: Optimasi media kultur untuk induksi kalus dengan penambahan zat perangsang tumbuh pada kultur jaringan rumput laut Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty)
Abstrak: The problem of seaweed seed quality deterioration that come from nature has become a major problem in seaweed farming. This can be handled by several techniques and one of them is tissue culture. The success of tissue culture to produce seeds through callus induction can not be separated from culture medium and plant growth regulator (PGR). In this study, we performed several combinations of plant growth regulator on two basic medium to get the best combination in callus induction. The combination of plant growth regulator BAP+IAA in Conway (CW) and Provasoli Enriched Seawater (PES) basic medium did not give the significant effect on the growth of callus. While in the PES medium, combination of plant growth regulator BAP+NAA gave the significant effect on the growth of callus but not in CW medium. The results of this study indicated that the concentration of BAP 1 mg / ℓand NAA 0 mg / ℓin PES medium was the best for callus growth.

Judul: Acclimatization and field cultivation test of an in vitro propagated seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii Doty) seed in the sea
Abstrak: In traditional aquaculture, propagation seeds of seaweed are usually obtained through vegetative technique. Nowadays, in vitro technique is applicable to get high-grade seaweed seeds. This study aimed to determine the best medium for micropropagule and fertilizer effect on young plantlets of Kappaphycus alvarezii. This study also performed to compare growth of seaweeds between vegetative and in vitro technique. The results showed that seawater medium with 20 ml l-1 provasoli enriched seawater fertilizer showed significant specific growth rate (4.65%) over three other medium treatment during culture in laboratory. However, during culture in greenhouse, seawater medium with 5 ml l-1 PES and 1.2 mg l-1 Growmore, a commercial fertilizer showed significant over two other medium treatment. In the last study, seaweeds from provasoli enriched seawater fertilizer treatment during acclimatization showed the highest growth (108,00 g) compared to the others when cultured in the sea. However, cultivation seaweeds from in vitro technique has better growth than vegetative technique.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
