Judul: Analisis Ekonomi Wisata Alam Berkelanjutan Taman Wisata Alam (Twa) Gunung Meja Manokwari Papua Barat
Abstrak: Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Gunung Meja is one of the developing tourist and conservations which is in Manokwari and it has the potency to develope to become the natural tourism area. Now the existance of TWA Gunung Meja is in the crisis condition caused by the society interaction in the area, such as the farming, cutting down the wood, top Soil and rocks, the garbage throw and there is no public fasility and supporting facilities. In the developing of economy analysis can be concluded that TWA Gunung Meja offers the aestetic, various flora and Fauna, Natural Cave, and historical sites.The destiny of tourist to TWA Gunung Meja is to entertain of natural panorama, hiking, caving, researching on flora and Fauna and the visit to the historical sites. The economic value of natural tourism TWA Gunung Meja is IDR 592.154.197 annualy and the value of natural tourism development TWA Gunung Meja is IDR 217.940.375. From social analysis, the society from TWA Gunung Meja is very conducive in supporting and ready to participate by paying to the development program on natural tourism in TWA Gunung Meja. While in the Environment analisys, the maximum amount of tourists who can visit to TWA Gunung Meja without changing the physical condition or to decrease the quality of the environment is 58.092 tourist per visit and maximum capacity for the tourist perday 174.211 persons.

Judul: Estimasi Nilai Ekonomi Keanekaragaman Hayati dan Strategi Pengelolaan Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Gunung Meja Manokwari, Papua Barat.
Abstrak: Kawasan Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Gunung Meja merupakan salah satu lokasi wisata alam di Kota Manokwari. Keindahan bentang alam serta keanekaragaman hayati dan peninggalan situs bersejarah masa penjajahan Jepang merupakan atraksi wisata alam yang menarik, namun pada kenyataannya kondisi kawasan tidak terurus dengan baik dan tidak lengkapnya infrastruktur penunjang wisata. Tingkat perlindungan kawasan yang kurang efektif menyebabkan tingginya ekstraksi sumber daya oeh masyarakat di sekitar TWA Gunung Meja. Penelitan ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi potensi keanekaragaman hayati di TWA Gunung Meja, mengestimasi total nilai ekonomi keanekaragaman hayati di TWA Gunung Meja, mengestimasi nilai ekonomi dari ekstraksi terhadap keanekaragaman hayati yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat sekitar TWA Gunung Meja dan menganalisis strategi pengelolaan TWA Gunung Meja yang berkelanjutan. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif, valuasi ekonomi sumber daya alam, dan Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Hasil penelitian menunjukan potensi keanekaragaman hayati baik flora maupun fauna yang teridentifikasi sebanyak 406 spesies. Estimasi total nilai keanekaragaman hayati di TWA Gunung Meja sebesar Rp801.248.208.618. Pemanfaatan keanekaragaman hayati oleh masyarakat sekitar kawasan diestimasi memiliki nilai ekonomi sebesar Rp10.476.472.882 dengan rata-rata nilai ekonomi ekstraksi per rumah tangga Rp1.471.621 tiap satu tahun. Kriteria yang menjadi prioritas dalam strategi pengelolaan TWA Gunung Meja adalah biaya pengelolaan, sedangkan alternatif yang dapat dijadikan prioritas utama adalah perbaikan infrastruktur penunjang.

Judul: Isolasi dan purifikasi inhibitor RNA helikase virus hepatitis C dari bakteriosin bakteri asam laktat S34
Abstrak: Target molecular therapy is one of method to prevent hepatitis C virus which was developed recently. NS3 Helicase/RNA helicase hepatitis C virus inhibition using inhibitory peptide are target in molecular therapy. Bacteriocin are inhibitory peptides which can inhibit hepatitis C virus through inhibition of NS3 helicase. Bacteriocin is a peptide which is produced by lactic acid bacteria. The aim of this research were to isolate and to purify bacteriocin from S34 lactic acid bacteria which has high activity to inhibit RNA helicase of hepatitis C virus. S34 lactic acid bacteria were identified using 16S RNA amplification and DNA sequencing identification of S34 lactic acid bacteria was Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1. The bacterial growth reached logaritmic phase at 7 hours and stationary phase at 10 hours. Bacteriocin were isolated and purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation with 80% saturation, gel filtration chromatography, and characterization of bacteriocin through molecular weight analysis and measured protein concentration. Bacteriocin from S34 lactic acid bacteria were included in 2nd class bacteriocin, had 64.20 % of inhibition against RNA helicase hepatitis C virus, had molecular weight about 1.7-4.2 kDa, and specific activity in the amount of 2.84 x 106 U/mg.
