Judul: Health management in dog and cat shelters
Abstrak: Selama di Indonesia dan Malaysia, penulis melihat banyak anjing dan kucing yang hidup menggelandang, liar, dan dalam kondisi kesehatan yang memprihatinkan. Walaupun belum terdapat data mengenai situasi ini, pemerintah dan masyarakat setempat perlu mengembangkan pusat pengayom untuk anjing dan kucing tersebut. Telaah pustaka ini dirancang untuk mengetahui manajemen kesehatan yang diperlukan dalam suatu pusat pengayom anjing dan kucing. Studi yang dilakukan meliputi studi literatur yang tersedia mengenai hal-hal yang seharusnya menjadi bagian dari manajemen tersebut supaya permasalahan kesehatan yang sering timbul pada pusat pengayom anjing dan kucing dapat dikurangi atau diatasi. Dari literatur-literatur yang didapatkan, masalah kesehatan yang sering timbul adalah perilaku hewan di pusat pengayom, penyakit infeksius, serta hewan yang ditemukan dalam kondisi menderita akibat kelaparan. Aspek manajemen yang diperlukan untuk mengatasi permasalahan-permasalahan tersebut antara lain meliputi cara penangkapan, pengendalian dan penanggulangan penyakit, rehabilitasi, serta medik preventif. Penyelenggaraan manajemen kesehatan ini harus disesuaikan dengan misi pusat pengayom termasuk kesejahteraan hewan dan penyelamatan lingkungan.

Judul: Evaluasi Kesejahteraan Anjing Di Pet Shop Dan Animal Shelter Di Sekitar Negeri Pulau Pinang, Malaysia
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi implementasi kesejahteraan anjing yang dipelihara di pet shop dan animal shelter di sekitar Negeri Pulau Pinang, Malaysia. Pengambilan data dilakukan di dua buah pet shop dan sebuah animal shelter di Negeri Pulau Pinang yang berlangsung pada bulan Juli hingga bulan Agustus 2015. Penelitian ini menggunakan formulir survei dan kuesioner dengan penilaian berdasarkan lima prinsip kesejahteraan hewan serta observasi langsung. Lima aspek dari kesejahteraan hewan meliputi kebebasan dari rasa lapar dan haus, kebebasan dari rasa tidak nyaman, kebebasan dari rasa sakit, luka dan penyakit, kebebasan dari rasa takut dan tertekan serta dapat berperilaku bebas sesuai perilaku alaminya. Dari hasil penelitian menunjukkan implementasi prinsip kesejahteraan hewan terhadap anjing-anjing di K-9 Pets relatif sangat baik diikuti dengan One Petz Store dan kemudian 4PAWS. Jumlah anjing tidak berpengaruh terhadap tinggi rendahnya nilai kesejahteraan hewan tetapi lebih dipengaruhi oleh sarana dan prasarana serta pengelolaan anjing.

Judul: Enhancement of photon absorbtion on BaxSr1-xTiO3 thin films semiconductor using photonic crystals.
Abstrak: In this research, has been conducted BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BST) thin films manufacturing for mole fraction x = 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55; and concentration of 1 molar using chemical solution depositon (CSD) method. The materials, which are used in this research, are barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%], titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28), 97.999%], gallium trioxide [Ga2O3], 2-methoxyethanol [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] and 1 x 1 cm of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass as substrate. Two BST thin films are made that for BST thin films which are doped by 10% galium (BGST) as p-type layer and pure BST solution as n-type. BST solution is made by reacting barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%] and titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28)] into 2-methoxyethanol solvent [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] in accordance with mass gram for each x value. While, BGST solution is made in the same way as BST solution, plus adding gallium at 10% of the mass of BST. Once all materials are reacted, then vibrated using ultrasonic for 90 minutes, and followed by coating BGST / BST on the TCO substrate. Once the layer is formed, then annealed for 15 hours at temperature of 500 °C with increasing rate of 1.67 oC/minute. Characterizations of BST thin films with or without photonic crystals include the absorbance and transmittance in the visible light spectrum, as well as the electrical photoconductivity characterizations. From BST thin films without photonic crystals indicate that our thin films have light absorption area on almost the entire range of the visible light spectrum even to the infrared range with absorption value over than 67.6%, in addition, it can be seen that the maximum absorbance of BST thin films for all mole fractions lie in blue to green light spectrum region, 457 nm ≤ λ ≤ 570 nm and the minimum in yellow to red light spectrum region, 570 nm ≤ λ ≤ 678 nm. The largest absorbance is found at x = 0.25 with average absorbance value of 92.04% and maximum and minimum absorbance peaks at wavelength of 500.89 and 657.72 nm, respectively. At x = 0.35, average absorbance value decreased to 83.55% with maximum and minimum peaks at 505.73 and 613.68 nm, respectively. Then increased to 91.16% at x = 0.45 with maximum and minimum peaks at 506.04 and 618.56 nm, respectively. At x = 0.55, average absorbance value decreased to 80.12% with maximum and minimum peaks at 507.85 and 608.79 nm, respectively. Moreover, it can be seen that the addition of barium mole fraction leads to wider maximum absorbance or minimum transmittance peaks and narrower minimum absorbance or maximum transmittance peaks in the same range of the green and blue & red light spectrums, respectively. BST thin films with photonic crystals show increasing in absorption for all x values in the range of 3.04 into 13.33%. At x = 0.25, average absorbance percentage increased 3.96% from 92.4 into 95.68%, for x = 0.35 average percentage increased 7.07% into 89.45 from 83.55%. Furthermore, average absorbance of BST thin films at x = 0.45 increased 3.04% from 91.16 into 93.93% and x = 0.55 has
