Judul: Prolapsus uteria dan penanggulangannya
Abstrak: Prolapsus uteri adalah penyembulan mukosa uterus dari badan melalui vagina. Penyembulan ini dapat total dan dapat pula sebagian. Umumnya terjadi setelah melahirkan. Prolapsus uteri disebabkan karena pada saat melahirkan, hormon oxytocin yang dihasilkan oleh kelenjar hipofise posterior sangat meningkat, sehingga gerak peristaltik, perejanan urat daging dan diafragma berlangsung terus menerus dengan kuat, meskipun foetus telah lahir. Faktor predisposisi prolapsus uteri adalah hewan yang telah berumur tua dan selalu di kandangkan sepanjang tahun, sehingga menyebabkan relaksasi ligamentum penggantung uterus. Infeksi yang disebabkan oleh kuman penyebab abortus serta batuk yang kronis lebih mendorong terjadinya prolapsus uteri.

Judul: Peranan Hormon Dalam Mekanisme Kelahiran Pada Sapi
Abstrak: Kelahiran adalah proses keluarnya fetus dari kandungan atas pengaruh hormon, syaraf dan kontraksi otot uterus, diafragma dan otot perut. Proses kelahiran merupakan suatu rangkaian fisiologik yang kompleks yang dapat berlangsung beberapa hari, bahkan sampai seminggu. Meskipun studi mengenai mekanisme kelahiran telah banyak dilakukan, namun mekanisme yang tepat mengenai kelahiran belumlah diketahui secara pasti. Namun demikian kemungkinan besar faktor hormonal memegang peranan utama. Dalam proses kelahiran, uterus harus sudah bebas dari pengaruh progesteron dan berada dibawah pengaruh estrogen, oxytocin, relaxin dan prostaglandin. Oxytocin yang diha silkan oleh hypophysa posterior induk hewan, merupakan hormon yang memegang peranan penting dalam merangsang uterus untuk memulai berkontraksi. Pemberian estrogen, oxytocin dan prostaglandin dengan dosis tinggi dapat menyebabkan kelahiran sebelum waktunya.

Judul: Application of phycocyanin from microalgae Spirulina platensis as light harvesting in anatase TiO2 nanoparticle solar cell.
Abstrak: The dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) has been assemblied used hybrid titanium oxide (TiO2) film/phycocyanin. The TiO2 film was synthesized by sol gel method with titanium chlorida (TiCl4) as precursor by hydrolysis used sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Furthermore, it calcinated for 2,5 hours in variation of annealing temperature (400oC, 600oC, 800oC, dan 1000oC). In XRD patterns exhibited which annealing temperature at 400oC to 800oC were anatase phase all. When annealed at temperature 1000oC, it caused phase transformation from anatase to rutile. The crystals size according to XRD patterns were 13,75 nm, 20,79 nm, 25,25 nm, 48,88 nm and particle size from SEM images were 43,06 nm, 44,91 nm dan 64,99 nm, 80,40 nm, respectively. The crystals and particle size increased with annealing temperature. The film thickness influenced material absorption. The optical measurement of TiO2 film and TiO2/phycocyanin hybrid film used UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Additional phycocyanin caused peak width of absorbed region from ultraviolet to visible region. The band gap energy of TiO2 can be calculated using the cut off wavelength obtained from the absorbance spectrum of a nanoparticles TiO2 films. Based on intersection between linear and energy (hv) axis. In this study just limited for anatase phase. It was caused anatase band gap is wider than rutile phase. That’s meaningful for solar cell application such as dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC). The absorption coefficient average at difference annealing temperature such as at 400oC, 600oC, 800oC were 8,1600x102, 1,7535x103 and 4,0154x102, where α < 104 include to direct transition. Band gap energy 400oC, 600oC, 800oC were 3,79 eV, 3,59 eV, and 3,35 eV, respectively. Based on this result, exhibition that band gap energy of TiO2 semiconductor film decreased with increasing annealing temperature. Spirulina platensis was cultivated in technical modification (Hastuti) with aeration under light intensity about 3000 lux. The cell density (stationer phase) for eighth day which OD value was more than 0,5. It means, the culture can be harvested. In 80 liters Spirulina platensis culture have been produced biomass dry about 10,46 gram and extracted phycocyanin in dry powders was 5,50 gram. The phycocyanin absorption spectrum at the wavelength of 619,36 nm (visible region) which had relaxation energy was 2,945 eV. The emission peak at the wavelength of 708,55 nm with relaxation energy about 2,793 eV. The Stokes shift based on difference energy absorption and emission calculated about 0,152 eV. Both of this showed phycocyanin can absorbed and radiated the sun light which received. This choice characteristic pigment was a good one related to sensitizer in solar cell application. Integration between light harvesting protein and TiO2 semiconductor surface had important role in improving of output as solar cell materials. The presence of carboxylate group (-COOH) made pigment be more efficient was due to anchored to the surface of TiO2 ampoter. The phycocyanin pigment had carboxylate group which reacted with TiO2 surface formed ester. The carboxylate group increased of dye electronics couple from excited state (p anti bonding orbital) to semiconductor acceptor state (TiO2 conduction band). The samples which made based on annealing temperature variation formed be solar cell respectively. Furthermore, cells be assembled for
