Judul: Pengolahan Banana Bars dengan Inulin sebagai Alternatif Pangan Darurat
Abstrak: There have been many disasters happened in Indonesia and as a consequence, many families had to stay in temporary camps. One of the problems related to this situation is providing an adequate, convenient, and nutritious foods for the refugees to maintain their health status in good condition especially for the first few days until the stable food come. According to Zoumas et al (2002), emergency food product must contain10-15% protein, 35-45% fat, and 40 to 50 percent carbohydrate. One of the examples of an emergency food product is a snack bar. The objective of this study was to obtain the best formulation, baking temperature and time to produce banana bars acceptable by sensory evaluation and contained energy that meet emergency food requirements. This research consisted of three steps. First step was to produce banana and tempe flour as the primary ingredients of the banana bars, second step was to obtain the best formulation and baking parameters to produce acceptable bars based on sensory evaluation, and the third step was reformulation to adjust the macronutrient content of the banana bars and physico-chemical analysis of the products. The first step of the research resulted in banana and tempe flour similar to those obtained by other researchers. The second step produced formula II containing 28.57% banana and tempe flour, 42.86% glutinous rice flour and margarine, 57.14% sugar, 5.71% inulin, and 22.86% water and baking parameters of 100oC for 20 minutes followed by baking at 140oC for 40 minutes. Using the formula and baking parameters above, banana bars was analyzed for proxymate analysis, however, the results indicated that the macronutrient of protein did not meet the requirement of emergency food product. Therefore, a reformulation was conducted to produce desired product in step three. In the third step, four formulations containing banana flour, tempeh flour and inulin were evaluated for proxymate analysis, physical, microbiological and sensory evaluation Because of the reformulation, baking temperature and time was also adjusted. Based on the result of this research, the best baking parameters was 100oC for 20 minutes and then raised to 130oC for 40 minutes. Based on the overall attribute of sensory evaluation, formula A and D was not significantly different and both of them were the most preferred product by panelists. The formulation resulted in products containing energy of 111.72 calories and 110.60 calories. Macronutrient content of formula A didn’t meet the requirement of emergency food product, but macronutrient content of formula D meet the requirement of emergency food product. So, formula D was evaluated in other evaluation. Evaluation of banana bars made with formula D suggested that the water activity was 0.308 in 30.3oC. Texture analysis of the banana bar showed that product had peak force of (+) 1921.3 g force; 0.870 mm that showed the value of hardness. The banana bar produced was crunchy, crispy, and did not form crumb. The colour of the product was golden brown and analysis of the product showed L value of 47.75%, a value of +9.68, b value of +24.43 and oHue value of 68.38. The microbiological result shows that all

Judul: Pengembangan "Snack Bar" Tinggi Kalori dari Tepung Komposit Sukun (Arthocarpus altilis) dan Kacang Hijau (Phaseolus radiatus linn) untuk Pangan Darurat Anak Balita
Abstrak: Dengan semakin seringnya terjadi bencana alam di Indonesia, maka ketersediaan pangan darurat untuk membantu para korban di lokasi bencana menjadi sangat penting mendesak. Hingga saat ini, belum ada makanan darurat khusus anak balita. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengembangkan snack bar berenergi tinggi sebagai makanan darurat dari sukun (arthocarpus altilis) dan kacang hijau (phaseolus radiatus linn) tepung komposit untuk anak dibawah lima tahun. Eksperimental desain yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Tepung komposit terbuat dari 60% sukun dan 40% kacang hijau digunakan sebagai bahan utama. Snack bar dibuat dengan cara dicampur tepung komposit dan tepung terigu dengan perbandingan 0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25 dan 100:0. Uji organoleptik dilakukan untuk mengukur rasa, warna, aroma, tekstur dan karakteristik produk secara keseluruhan. Jumlah tepung komposit berpengaruh nyata (p<0,05) terhadap warna, aroma, tekstur dan karakteristik produk secara keseluruhan, namun tidak berpengaruh terhadap cita rasa bar makanan ringan. Snack bar dengan perbandingan 75:25 menjadi produk terpilih untuk tersebut studi berikutnya. Energi produk ini lebih tinggi dibandingkan produk komersial. Ini formula mengandung 498 kkal/100 g snack bar. Untuk memasok 30% energi yang cukup anak-anak sebaiknya mengonsumsi 3 buah snack bar.

Judul: Beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi ruang dada kancil
Abstrak: Telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan 10 ekor kancil dewasa jantan dan betina dengan tujuan untuk menge- tahui beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi di dalam ruang dada, meliputi jantung, pembuluh darah yang keluar dan ma- suk jantung serta ukuran-ukuran jantung. Kancil merupakan ruminansia terkecil di dunia, hidup di daerah tropika India, Thailand, Malaysia dan Indonesia bagian barat. Hewan ini dilindungi dan mempunyai prospek yang baik untuk hewan penelitian maupun dibudidayakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berat jantung rаta-rata adalah 0.69% dari berat rata-rata kancil. Dan ini mirip pada jantung kuda dan anjing. Bentuk jantung lonjong seperti halnya ruminansia. Demikian pula letaknya di dalam ruang dada seperti pada ruminansia dengan adanya Ligamentum sternopericardiacum. Di dalam ventrikel kanan membersit sebuah Musculus (M.) papillaris dari dindingnya dan tiga sampai empat Musculi (Mm.) papillares dari Septum interventriculare. Hanya dua buah Mm. papillares yang berukuran besar dibersitkan dari dinding ventrikel kiri. Percabangan Arteri (A.) coronaria sinistra lebih dominan dari pada A. coronaria dextra. Sedangkan A. sub clavia sinistra dicabangkan langsung dari aorta di dorso- caudal pembersitan Truncus (Tr.) brachiocephalicus…
