Judul: Perbandingan Metode Maserasi, Remaserasi, Perkolasi dan Reperkolasi Terhadap Rendemen Ekstrak Temulawak (Curcuma Xanthorrhiza Roxb).
Abstrak: This research focusing to analyze the best type of simple extraction method for industry that optimize the output based on oleoresin proporsition. This research comparing four type of simple extraction method including maceration, remaceration, percolation, and repercolation. This research was divided in two parts. The first part called as pre-research and the second part is the main research. The pre-research gave information that the sample of java turmeric consist of water (14.97%), starch (58.56%), fat (7.45%), protein (7.07%), crude fiber (7.63%), total ash (5.07%) and needs two hours of washing time. The main research gave information about yield percentage of each type of method. Maceration method produce 12.20% to 12.60% of yield. Remaceration method produce 15.60% to 16.70% of yield. Percolation method produce 12.50% to 15.00% of yield, and repercolation method produce 15% to 16% of yield. Statistical calculations using SAS 9.1 indicated that the difference of time was insignificant to yield value. HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) analysis indicated that the retention time of all sample was according to the six minutes of curcumin standard retention time. The highest curcumin value produced in 12 hours length of maceration (6.7 %) and the lowest curcumin produced in 16 hours length of maceration (0.6 %). The lowest curcumin caused by curcumin degradation that happened as long as the extraction process. Based on this research, the best extraction method was four hours length of maceration. It has 15.60% yield with 6.5 % of curcumin.

Judul: Meta-analysis of Solvent Effectiveness, Particle Size, and Extraction Method of Curcumin Levels on Curcuma Rhizome (Curcuma xanthorrhiza)
Abstrak: Temulawak merupakan tanaman herbal yang memiliki berbagai potensi farmakologi akibat kandungan senyawa aktif yang dimilikinya, salah satunya yaitu kurkumin. Penelitian terkait optimasi proses ekstraksi temulawak agar menghasilkan ekstrak senyawa aktif kurkumin yang tinggi telah banyak dilakukan, namun hasil yang diperoleh dari berbagai penelitian bervariasi sehingga diperlukan teknik analisis dan penarikan kesimpulan dari data yang ada untuk menjawab perbedaan tersebut. Penelitian bertujuan menentukan efektivitas penggunaan pelarut, ukuran partikel, dan metode ekstraksi terhadap kadar kurkumin yang diperoleh selama ekstraksi. Kadar kurkumin tertinggi pada ekstraksi temulawak diperoleh pada penggunaan pelarut n-heksana, ukuran partikel 100 mesh, dan metode sokhlet. Nilai efektivitas pemilihan pelarut (2,6%) tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kadar kurkumin ekstrak temulawak. Efektivitas ukuran partikel berpengaruh sebesar 65,9% terhadap kadar kurkumin ekstrak temulawak. Semakin kecil ukuran partikel simplisia yang digunakan maka semakin tinggi kadar kurkumin ekstrak temulawak yang diperoleh. Efektivitas metode ekstraksi berpengaruh sebesar 86% terhadap kadar kurkumin ekstrak temulawak. Semakin banyak metode yang digunakan maka semakin sedikit kadar kurkumin ekstrak temulawak yang diperoleh. Kata kunci : kurkumin, meta-analisis, metode ekstraksi, pelarut, ukuran partikel., Curcuma is an herbal plant that has various pharmacological potentials due to its active compound content, one of which is curcumin. Research related to the optimization of the curcuma extraction process in order to produce extracts of high bioactive curcumin content has been carried out, but the results obtained from various studies vary so that analysis techniques and drawing conclusions from existing data are needed to answer these differences. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of solvent selection, particle size, and extraction method on curcumin levels obtained during extraction. The highest curcumin content in curcuma extraction was obtained using n-hexane solvent, 100 mesh particle size, and the soxhlet method. The value of the effectiveness of selecting solvents (2.6%) did not show a significant effect on curcumin levels of curcuma extract. The effectiveness of the particle size had an effect of 65.9% on the curcumin content of ginger extract. The smaller of simplicia particle size used, the more curcumin content of curcuma extract obtained. The effectiveness of the extraction method has an effect of 86% on the curcumin content of ginger extract. The more methods used, the less curcumin content of curcuma extract obtained.

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.
