Judul: Penilaian Tingkat Pelapukan dan Perkembangan Tanah Dengan Vegetasi Bambu (Gigantochloa sp) dan Karet (Havea sp) serta Klasifikasinya Menurut Sistem Taksonomi Tanah
Abstrak: Tanah merupakan tubuh alami d i permukaan bumi yang terbentuk akibat pengaruh faktor-faktor pembentuk tanah. Dalam proses pembentukan tanah faktor-faktor ini bekerja saling berinteraksi. Pada keadaan tertentu salah satu atau beberapa faktor dapat lebih dominan pengaruhnya sehingga terbentuk tanah yang heterogen. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat sejauh mana tingkat pelapukan dan perkembangan tanah yang terdapat di bawah naungan vegetasi bambu (G i ~ antochlo as )dan karet (b9) serta klasifikasinya menurut sistem Taksonomi Tanah.

Judul: Penilaian Beberapa Sifat Kimia Tanah dan Evaluasi Kesuburan Tanah di Bawah Vegetasi Bambu di Desa Kalimulya, Kecamatan Sukmajaya Kabupaten Bogor
Abstrak: Salah satu komoditi yang belum banyak ditelaah tetapi sudah banyak dimanfaatkan orang di Indonesia adalah bambu, Bambu mempunyai fungsi yang serba guna. Untuk mengetahui sejauh mana pengaruh tanaman bambu terhadap sifat-sifat kimia tanah pada kedalaman rata-rata akar tanaman setahun, yaitu 0-40 cm, maka dilakukan penelitian ini dengan menetapkan beberapa sifat kimia tanah. Selain itu dievaluasi pula status kesuburan tanah dibawah vegetasi bambu dengan kriteria dari Pusat Penelitian Tanah (1983). Sebagai pembanding digunakan tanah bekas kebun karet pada bahan induk, iklim. topografi dan umur tanah yang dianggap aama.

Judul: Pemurnian dan karakterisasi protein inhibitor RNA helikase virus hepatitis C
Abstrak: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the second most common chronic viral infection in the world with global prevalence. This infection is contribution to chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis, often leading to hepatocellular carcinoma. There is no effective drug and vaccine available against HCV. The current standard treatment, a combination of pegylated interferon-α with ribavirin, is limited by its suboptimal response rate in a significant patient population, side effects, and affordability. Therefore, development of effective drug is needed. One approach to find out the candidate of antiviral drug is to discover the inhibitor of enzyme that essential for virus replication, such as RNA helicase. Streptomyces chartreusis 5-095 produce the inhibitor of HCV RNA helicase. The aim of this study was to purify the protein inhibitor which has inhibition activity against ATPase activity of RNA helicase HCV from S. chartreusis 5-095. The supernatant of culture S. chartreusis 5-095 exhibited high inhibiton activity against ATPase activity of RNA helicase HCV (approximately 72%) at 10 days of incubation. The extracellular protein inhibitor was partially purified by procedures of precipitation with ammonium sulfate to 65% saturation and gel filtration (Sephadex G50) using methanol water solution (4:6) as an eluen. The purity of protein inhibitor was monitored by SDS PAGE. The protein inhibitor showed a relative molecular mass were estimated to be 14 kDa and increased the purity 23,08 fold than those of the crude protein. The specific activity and IC50 after purification were 13,1338 U/mg and 0,0767 mg/mL, respectively. The activity of purified protein inhibitor showed its stability over pH range from 5-8 and optimum at pH 7,4. The inhibition activity showed its stability up to 70% at temperature 100 oC. The purified protein inhibitor relatively stable its activity at storage in the range of -20 oC to room temperature for 35 days.
