Judul: Exploitation status of the small-pelagic fish resources in Maluku waters and its fishing capacity
Abstrak: The potential for the Maluku’s pelagic fishery resources is moderately exploited; hence, small-pelagic fishery development is considerably strategic. The development of the small-pelagic fishery is complex due to involvement of stakeholders in the resources utilization, and the unique characteristics of marine fish resources. Since 1999, fishing capacity issue has become growing concerns in world fisheries. Excessive fishing capacity can contribute substantially to overfishing, degradation of marine fishery resources, and significant economic waste. In line with fishing capacity, this research was conducted to analyze exploitation status of the small-pelagic fish resources in Maluku waters based on fishing capacity. Research location was the WPP-714 Banda Sea, particularly focused on area of the Central Maluku Regency and Ambon City. Collected data were analyzed by using bioeconomic approach of Gordon-Schaefer model, data envelopment analysis (DEA), technique of linear goal programming (LGP), stochastic production frontier analysis (SPF), and strategic environment analysis. Results showed that at maximum sustainable yield (MSY); production was 57,589.57 tones per year, fishing effort 7,945,48 trips, biomass 480,715.12 tones, and economic rent Rp 200,499,420,000. Six out of the 22 decision-making units (DMU) were fully efficient. The lowest capacity utilization in small-pelagic fishery was found in DMU-1988, which was 76%. There was indication of over capacity on the small-pelagic fishery in the period of 1989 to 1999. The smallpelagic fishery in the east season was more efficient than that of in the west season. At temporal exploitation for the east season, allocation of purse seine was 161 units and of gillnet was 6,507 units, whereas for the west season allocation of purse seine was 13 units and gillnet 2,663 units. The affected determinants of the stochastic frontier production function were length and width of fishing gears, number of persons per vessel, investment value of fishing unit, and time spent in fishing per trip. Age of skipper, total household size of the skipper, and the skipper’s years of fishing experience significantly influenced technical inefficiency of fishing. Optimal allocation of purse seine was 251 fishing units, gillnet 10,011 units, lift net 190 units, and beach seine 32 units. Compared to the original allocation of the fishing unit, lift net and beach seine decreased very sharply by 781 units and 393 units, respectively. Strategic plan was designed under a vision of “pelagic fishery development based on fishing capacity and efficiency for people welfare”. This vision is aimed at balancing level of fishing fleets with the sustainability of the marine fish resources in Maluku. To achieve this goal, some environmental factors associated with fishing capacity management were identified and used for developing strategic plan.

Judul: Development of fisheries pelagic model in Maluku Waters
Abstrak: Pelagic fish resources are potential enough in Maluku so the development of fisheries in this area is a strategic effort. Based on this consideration, this research was conducted. The objective of the research is to establish a conceptual development of fisheries pelagic model in Maluku waters. The analysis of potential resource showed that exploitation rate and utilization rate a pelagic fishery in Maluku water has not been maximum yet. Analysis based on CCRF evaluation criteria showed that pole and line fishing unit became the main alternative gear for the development of sustainable and environmentally safety fisheries in spite of pole and line, surface gill net, and trawler. Analysis of scoring method based on biology, technic, social and economy showed that pole and line (743.87) got the priority to be developed followed by pole and line (57.83), surface gill net (16.73) and purse seine (10.78). Analysis of AHP displayed that optimum allocation of fishing gear included purse seine (257), beach seine (260), boat lift net (1419), pole and line (1457), troll line (40940) and surface gillnet (30000). Compared to actual allocation, there will be a decrease in purse seine (15), beach seine (175) and boat lift net (240). It was proposed to develop a kite from fiber glass for pole and line fishing boat as long as 2.75 m, with boat dimension of length 15.26, width 3.64, and height 2.672 m. The pole and line used circle-shaped hook No. 1 (No. 1000-1500). The propose pole and line boat dimension was l x b x d = 8.50 x 1.85 x 0.72 m using wood or fiberglass as main material, engine (2 x 15 HP or 1 x 40 HP), carosenne fuel, using compass and lifejacket. The use of styrofoam in modification of pole and line boat deck aimed to produce skipjack loin which was an export commodity. Fishing technology using a kite line pole made method could save exploitation cost. Modification and construction of pole and line boat that was proposed to be developed was 20.7 m long, 3.1 m wide, 2.20 m high, using four units of 40 HP motor boat. Technology design of wings at trawler boat was very helpful in fishing process. Analysis of strategic environment (LINSTRA) on fisheries development in Maluku showed that cooperation between the government, community, and enterpreneur is required for the successfull policy implementation in the region, to support the development of fishing gear in Maluku.

Judul: Telaah Histopatologi Urolithiasis Pada Kucing
Abstrak: Urolithiasis adalah suatu keadaan dimana ditemukannya batu di dalam saluran urinaria. Batu tersebut dibentuk dalam pelvis ginjal dan bergerak turun sepanjang ureter kemudian masuk ke dalam vesika urinaria dan uretra. Penulisan ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari lebih dalam secara histopatologi tentang kasus kematian seekor kucing dengan urolithiasis yang dinekropsi di Laboratorium Patologi FKH-IPB. Pemeriksaan patologi anatomi menemukan adanya fokal atelektasis paru, dilatasi ventrikel kiri jantung, hidrothoraks, hidroasites, ginjal pueat dan batu-batu berbagai ukuran dengan diameter 0,1-0,5 em pada vesika urinaria yang berdarah. Pada pengamatan histopatologi menunjukkan pembendungan semua organ, nephritis interstitialis kronis disertai bentukan mikrokista dan endapan mineral pada lumen tubuli dan sistitis nekrotik disertai pendarahan yang meluas. Pemeriksaan pada organ paru-paru ditemukan lumen alveolus sebagian mengempis dan sebagian lagi meluas. Dinding alveol menebal akibat adanya akumulasi eritrosit. Sedikit koloni bakteri tampak dalam lumen usus, bercampur dengan epitel usus yang terlepas di ujung viii. Hati mengalami pembendungan, ruangan sinusoid tampak meluas. Beberapa megakariosit tampak di dalam pulpa merah yang menunjukkan adanya aktivitas hematopoetis. Organ jantung tidak menunjukkan adanya perubahan histopatologi yang spesifik.
