Judul: Pengaruh Suhu Produksi terhadap Aktivitas Ekstrak Kasar Bakteriosin dari Berbagai Galur Lactobacillus sp dalam Menghambat Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus
Abstrak: The interest of biopreservation systems in foods are increasing in industries and consumers lately. Bacteriocinogenic lactic acid bacteria and/or their isolated bacteriocins are considered as GRAS (generally recognize as safe. It is useful to control the frequent development of pathogens and spoilage microorganisms in foods. The study was aimed to compare activity of crude extract bacteriocins from Lactobacillus sp. strain SCG 1211, SCG 1221, and SCG 1223, which can suppress the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus; and to compare the effect of heating temperature at 80 oC and 100 oC. Adsorbtion-desorbtion method was applied in production step. The inhibitory activities of the bacteriocins were indicated by the presence of a transparent zone surrounding the agar wells. The result showed that inhibitory activity of crude extract bacteriocin were not affected by heating temperature (p>0,05). The highest activity was shown by crude extract bacteriocin from Lactobacillus sp. strain SCG 1211, which the activity was (853,01 ± 0,00) AU/mL towards E.coli and (1033,08 ± 65,76) AU/mL towards S.aureus.

Abstrak: The preservative agent is usually add into a product to improve its characteristic. The research on natural preservatives also has been using to reduce the contamination of pathogenic bacteria. The important of preservatives agent is its stability. The stability of inhibition activity of bacteriocins would maintain the ability in reducing the growth of pathogenic bacteria. In the production of food additive is use full to control the water content of bacteriocins and maintained its viability. Bacteriocins produced by Lactic Acid Bacteria strain SCG 1223 was stable at low pH (2-4), 100oC and storage condition of 4oC for 120 days. The best encapsulation formula for bacteriocins was by using 83,33% maltodextrine, 16,67% skim milk, and 20% of liquid bacteriocins SCG 1223. The condition for encapsulation was good if using lower temperature inlet of 150oC and temperature outlet of 75-80 oC. The yield obtained was 69,3% having 2,73% moisture content and 66,81% soluble solids. The low moisture content and high soluble solids showed to increase the inhibition activity.

Judul: Karakteristik Anatomi Skelet Kepala Buaya senyulong (Tomistoma schlegelii).
Abstrak: Buaya sepit atau senyulong (Tomistoma schlegelii) merupakan jenis buaya asli Indonesia yang berhabitat di sungai-sungai Sumatera, Kalimantan, dan juga pedalaman Sulawesi. Salah satu ciri khas buaya senyulong adalah bentuk moncong yang runcing dan sempit, namun hingga saat ini informasi mengenai struktur skelet kepala buaya senyulong sangat terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari karakteristik anatomi skelet kepala buaya senyulong yang dikatikan dengan fungsi dan perilakunya. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksploratif dengan melakukan pengamatan, pencatatan, dan pengambilan gambar dari skelet kepala buaya senyulong. Skelet kepala berukuran panjang 70 cm, lebar 29 cm, dan tingggi 17 cm dengan permukaan kasar pada os nasale, os frontale, os maxilla, os mandibula, os lacrimale, os jugale. Jumlah gigi pada buaya ini sebanyak 78 buah, terdiri dari 4 buah gigi premaxila, 16 buah gigi maxila, dan 19 buah gigi mandibula. Pada regio orbitalis ditemukan dua pasang fenestrae temporales yang berkembang baik. Fenestra supratemporale merupakan lubang oval yang membentang di sepanjang os parietale. Fenestra infratemporale berbentuk segitiga dan dibatasi oleh os squamosum, os postorbitale, os jugulare, dan os quadratum. Os mandibula hewan ini mempunyai symphysis mandibularis yang panjang yaitu garis yang melintang di corpus mandibulae. Secara fungsional ukuran symphysis mandibularis berkaitan dengan adaptasi hewan terhadap diet makan.
