Abstrak: The objectives of this research are, first, to analyze the dynamics and self reliance of the community forest farmer groups of the Lemahduhur Village, Caringin Sub- District, Bogor; second, to identify the factors that affect to the dynamic and self reliance of the farmer groups; and the last, third, to explore the sustainability of the said forest farmer groups. Research was conducted on March-May 2011. Two farmer groups were studied through qualitative approach i.e the ‘Bina Mandiri’ and the ‘Puspa Mandiri’. The results show that the dynamic and self-reliance of the both groups are categorized as low. Educational background, ages, farm experiences and land size are factors that strongly influence the dynamic and self-reliance of the groups. The last findings, the sustainability of the studied groups were categorized as low or limited in terms of its management, efforts and participation of the member.

Judul: Electrophoretic Coating of Apatite Compouds on Stainless Steel 316L.
Abstrak: Stainless steel (SS) 316L is a metal which is used to bone plate. However, this metal still has low biocompatibility in a human body. The metal is coated by HAp in order to increase its biocompatibility. HAp on SS 316L is coated by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. We used two variables in EPD process, such as voltage and coating time to obtain the best coating. The XRD difractogram showed that SS 316L has been coated by HAp. Physical observation used by microscope optics showed that the best coating is achieved on 120V during 2 minutes.
