Judul: Chemical and Sensory Characteristic of Cooked Rice from Analog Rice with Additional of Gracilaria sp.
Abstrak: Nasi analog Gracilaria sp. dapat menjadi bentuk diversifikasi pangan sumber karbohidrat yang diharapkan mampu menggantikan nasi putih. Penambahan tepung rumput laut Gracilaria sp. berfungsi untuk meningkatkan nilai tambah pada produk nasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh perbedaan konsentrasi rumput laut Gracilaria sp. yang ditambahkan dalam beras analog terhadap karakteristik kimiawi dan sensori nasi yang dihasilkan, serta menentukan formulasi terbaik. Konsentrasi tepung rumput laut Gracilaria sp. ditambahkan pada beras analog sebesar 0%, 5%, 10%, dan 15%. Beras analog dimasak menggunakan mesin rice cooker menjadi nasi. Hasil uji kandungan kimia menunjukkan perbedaan penambahan konsentrasi tepung Gracilaria sp. memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap kadar air, abu, protein, serat pangan total, serat pangan larut dan tidak larut. Perbedaan penambahan konsentrasi tepung Gracilaria sp. juga berpengaruh nyata terhadap total fenol, kadar tanin, parameter hedonik aroma, warna, dan keseluruhan pada nasi analog. Formula terpilih berdasarkan uji Bayes adalah nasi analog dengan konsentrasi tepung rumput laut Gracilaria sp. 10%.

Judul: Effect of Cooking Water Ratio with Rice Cooker on Physicochemical and Sensory Gracilaria sp. Analog Rice
Abstrak: Beras analog Gracilaria sp. merupakan produk diversifikasi pangan yang menggunakan rumput laut sebagai bahan fungsionalnya. Penggunaan rumput laut Gracilaria sp. yang tinggi serat diharapkan meningkatkan nilai tambah pada nasi. Pengaruh rasio beras dan air (b/v) pada karakteristik sensori nasi diteliti dalam kaitannya dengan sifat fisiokimia. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan perlakuan berupa rasio air. Data parametrik dianalisis dengan normalitas dan analisis sidik ragam dengan uji lanjut Duncan. Data non-parametrik dianalisis dengan uji Kruskal Wallis dengan uji lanjut Dunn. Sampel beras analog Gracilaria sp. dimasak dengan tiga rasio (b/v) dan disajikan kepada 35 panelis tidak terlatih untuk evaluasi sensori. Rasio antara beras analog : air (b/v) sebesar 1:1; 1:1,5 ; dan 1:2. Perbedaan rasio beras dan air pada proses pemasakan berpengaruh terhadap sifat fisik, kimia, dan sensori beras dan nasi analog Gracilaria sp.. Nasi analog terbaik yaitu perlakuan 1:1,5 (b/v) yang ditentukan berdasarkan metode Bayes. Berdasarkan pada analisis penalti CATA, atribut yang harus dimiliki oleh nasi analog Gracilaria sp. berupa moistness of grains, sticky, soft, glossy grain dan firm. Nasi analog terbaik mengandung serat pangan sebesar 5,17% dan tergolong makanan sumber serat., Gracilaria sp. analog rice is a food diversification product that uses seaweed as its functional ingredient. Gracilaria sp. seaweed which is high in fiber is expected to increase the added value of rice. The effect of the ratio of rice and water (w/v) on the sensory characteristics of the rice studied in relation to its physiochemical properties. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with a water ratio treatment. Parametric data were analyzed by normality and analysis of variance by Duncan's test. Non-parametric data were analyzed using the Kruskal Wallis test with the Dunn test. Gracilaria sp. analog rice samples cooked at three ratios (w/v) and presented to 35 untrained panelists for sensory evaluation. The ratio between analog rice : water (w/v) is 1:1; 1:1,5 ; and 1:2. The difference in the ratio of rice and water in the cooking process affected the physical, chemical, and sensory properties of Gracilaria sp. analog rice. The best analog rice was the 1:1.5 (w/v) treatment which was determined based on the Bayes method. Based on the CATA penalty analysis, the must-have attributes are moisture of grains, sticky, soft, glossy grains, and firm. The best analog rice contains dietary fiber of 5.17% and is classified as a food source of fiber.

Judul: A Continuous Vaccination Strategy in the SVIR Epidemic Model
Abstrak: Vaccination is conducted to minimize the spread of a disease. The vaccination is usually done several times within a fixed time interval. In the SVIR model, it is assumed that individuals do not get immediate immunity following a vaccination program. So according to process of vaccination on SVIR model, there are two strategies, i.e. the continuous vaccination strategy (CVS) and the pulse vaccination strategy (PVS). In this study, only the CVS strategy in epidemic model SVIR is considered. Results of the study indicate that dynamics of the CVS system depends on the basic reproductive number. If the basic reproductive number is less than one, then the disease-free fixed point is asymptotically stable. It means that the disease will eventually disappear from the population. Conversely, if the basic reproductive number is greater than one, then the endemic fixed point is asymptotically stable, which means that the disease will remain exist in the population. Simulation result shows that the vaccination would minimize the spread of disease by reducing the basic reproductive number. If the time for the vaccinated recipients to obtain the immunity, as well as a possibility of vaccinated recipients to be infected are neglected, then the disease will be eradicated. This condition is called an over-evaluating effect of vaccination.
