Judul: Penerapan Competency Based Human Resources Management (CBHRM) dalam Rangka Pengembangan Modal Insani (Human Capital) karyawan di PT. Traktor Nusantara Jakarta.
Abstrak: Dewasa ini persaingan di dunia usaha semakin ketat. Untuk itu diperlukan suatu cara sehingga perusahaan bisa bersaing. Untuk menjadi perusahaan yang memiliki daya saing tentu saja hal ini tidak terlepas dari peranan Sumber Daya Manusianya. Keunggulan mutu bersaing suatu organisasi sangat ditentukan oleh mutu SDM-nya sehingga dapat menghasilkan kinerja yang superior. Organisasi sangat membutuhkan SDM yang kompeten untuk menunjang keberhasilan pelaksanaan pekerjaannya. Paradigma terbaru memandang SDM bukan sebagai sumber daya belaka, melainkan lebih berupa modal atau aset bagi organisasi, oleh karena itu kemudian muncul istilah baru di luar Human Resources, yaitu Human Capital (modal insani). Di sini SDM dilihat bukan sekedar sebagai aset utama, tetapi aset yang bernilai, dapat dilipatgandakan, dan dikembangkan. Oleh karena itu pengembangan modal insani perlu dilakukan sehingga perusahaan memiliki keunggulan dan daya saing. Salah satu cara yang digunakan untuk mengembangkan modal insani adalah dengan menerapkan Competency Based Human Resources Management (CBHRM). CBHRM adalah suatu pola pendekatan di dalam membangun suatu sistem manajemen sumber daya manusia yang handal dengan memanfaatkan kompetensi sebagai titik sentralnya. CBHRM merupakan salah satu pendekatan manajemen sumber daya manusia berdasarkan kompetensi yang meliputi rekrutmen dan seleksi, pelatihan, penilaian kinerja, penghargaan dan sanksi serta program pensiun. Tujuan CBHRM yaitu untuk mengelola sumber daya manusia sebagai modal atau capital intelectual melalui pembangunan kompetensi. Penelitian ini bertujuan : 1). Mengidentifikasi penerapan CBHRM di PT. Traktor Nusantara 2). Mengidentifikasi pengembangan modal insani di PT. Traktor Nusantara. 3). Menganalisis penerapan CBHRM dalam rangka pengembangan modal insani di PT. Traktor Nusantara. Metode pengolahan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan uji kanonikal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penerapan CBHRM yang dilakukan perusahaan tergolong baik. Dari hasil perhitungan korelasi antara penerapan CBHRM dan pengembangan modal insani didapatkan hasil p-value sebesar 0,0064 dimana kurang dari 0,10 yang berarti tolak Ho dan dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat korelasi kanonik yang cukup besar yaitu dengan nilai r sebesar 0,7131.

Judul: Analisis Pengaruh Kompetensi Sumber Daya Manusia Terhadap Kinerja Karyawan (Studi kasus PT Mitra Excellent Indonesia)
Abstrak: PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia is one of the companies engaged in heavy equipment maintenance services. Heavy equipment maintenance services business has been progressing quite well, but the needs of human resources shortage and competency maintenance services of heavy equipment to face difficulties in obtaining suitable labor resulting in complaints from customers due to delays in the implementation of the customer's operations due to equipment maintenance heavy equipment is less optimal than PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia. The study has two main objectives that include the following: (1) Identifying HR competency needed in PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia, Jakarta and South Kalimantan. (2) to analyze the effect of HR competency performance to employment in PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia, Jakarta and South Kalimantan. The study was conducted at PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia Graha Mas Pemuda Blok AD 16 Jl. Pemuda Kav.1 Pulogadung, East Jakarta. Data collection was conducted from July to August 2012. The data used are primary data and secondary data. Primary data obtained from interviews and questionnaires distribution. Secondary data were obtained from the literature and the internet. This research analysis tool using linear regression. Identification of human resource competency needed in PT. Mitra Excellent Indonesia is the action orientation, communication, creativity/innovation, critical judgment, customer orientation, interpersonal skill, leadership, teamwork and technical skill/functional. Overall, respondents' perceptions of competence has a frequency value of 73.7%, while the respondent's perception of performance has a frequency value of 73.8%. Overall, the effect of variable competency of HR performance to employment is 62.3%. While the competency of the nine variables that significantly affect the performance of the employees there are only three variables, the variable creativity/innovation, leadership variables and technical skill/functional variables. While the other six variables are action orientation variables, communication variables, critical judgment variables, customer orientation variables, interpersonal skill variables and teamwork variables not significantly influence performance employment. Managerial implications that can be done is to conduct a variety of training for employees in each work unit such as active learning, conduct training need analysis, advanced leader training, basic mechanic systems, engine systems and maintenance, trouble shooting machine, and training overhoul.

Judul: DNA Extraction and Characterization of Salmonella‟s Lytic Bacteriophage Genome
Abstrak: Bacteriophages are ubiquitous in nature and are known to proliferate wherever their bacterial hosts exist. Their virion particles can exist independently outside the host, however all phages are need their host to propagate. Several phages are highly specific to host cell surface receptors and any slight changes in structure results in little or no interaction between the phage and its host. Salmonella‟s phage isolated from sewage water where their bacteria exist. Three isolated of phages (phages 15, 19 and 38) were used in this research that concentrated using three types of methods. PEG/ NaCl method was firstly used to concentrate the phages based on their molecular weight to precipitate the phage particles during centrifugation. The second method was Scraping Plaque method. In this method, overlay plaques were scraped and collected in SM buffer to get phage concentrates. Enrichment method was the last method used to concentrate the phages. Phage genome isolation was done using two methods i.e. EDTA/SDS and Proteinase K methods. The first method was done using DNase I to eliminate bacterial DNA followed by SDS/EDTA treatment to release phages DNA and phenol-chloroform-isoamyl alcohol to extract the DNA. DNA was collected by isopropanol extraction. While in Proteinase K method, bacterial DNA was eliminated by DNase I and Proteinase K/SDS was used to degrade phages capsids and ethanol for DNA precipitation. The result showed that PEG/NaCl method resulted the highest phage concentration for phage 15 and phage 19, while scrapping method was the highest for phage 38. The quantity and purity of extracted DNA were low for PEG/NaCl and Scraping methods, while Enrichment method was higher indicated higher purity. Run on agarose gel electrophoresis of extracted DNA confirmed that Enrichment method results were the best while scraping and PEG/NaCl method was appeared smear background. Based on DNA genome size determination, the bacteriphages of Salmonella sp were comparable with other study of Salmonella phages. Phage P15 with genome size of 39,5 kb was close to phage epsilon15. Phage P19 with genome size of 41 kb was close to phage ST160. And phage P38 with genome size of 48,5 kb was close to phage Gifsy-1.
