Judul: Aktivitas senyawa antibakteri akar tumbuhan anting-anting (Acalypha indica L.)
Abstrak: Anting-anting plants had been used by public traditionallly for curing various diseases like dysentry, diarrhea, malaria, and also as antibiotics. The research aimed to study the activity of compounds which had potential as antibactery in plant. The research was conducted activity of antibactery to Gram positif and negatif bacteria with four kinds bacteri are Staphylococus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli dan Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The roots used were root extract from extraction of hexane solvent, ethyl acetate and methanol. The concentrations used was 200, 150, and 100 mg/ml for each solvents.

Judul: Kajian Aktivitas Antibakteri Daun Gatel (Laportea decumana (Roxb.) Wedd.) dan Daun Benalu Cengkeh
Abstrak: Many researches showed that several plants have a good antibacterial activity. The leaves of gatel and clove mistletoe are empirically used to cure several diseases. The aims of this research were: (1) to study the potential of antibacterial activity of gatel and clove mistletoe hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts against Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by the well diffusion method; (2) to calculate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of the potential extracts; and (3) to study the effect of various pH to antibacterial activity of the extracts. The results showed ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of the studied plants have low antibacterial activity against B. cereus and E. coli. Based on the MIC values, the ethyl acetate extract of gatel leaves showed over 99% percent inhibition against E. coli at a concentration of 3.5%, 4.0%, 4.5% and 5.0%. The same result was obtained by modifying the pH (4, 5 and 6) at the extracts concentration of 5% and 10%. The methanol extract of gatel leaves showed below 60% inhibition of B. cereus at a concentration of extract 4.0%, 4.5%, 5.0%, 5.5% and 6.0%, and more than 90% inhibition at the pH. The ethyl acetate extract of clove mistletoe showed more than 98% inhibition againts E. coli at a concentration of 3.5%, 4.0%, 4.5% and 5.0% and at pH 4, 5 and 6. Percent of inhibition less than 50% occured in the methanol extract of clove mistletoe at 4.0%, 4.5%, 5.0%, 5.5% and 6.0% concentration against B. cereus. For the methanol extract of clove mistletoe, the effect of pH variation (4, 5, 6 and 7) resulted in 92%-97% inhibition. The result may increase the utilization of research plant not only for health purposes but also as a natural food preservative and open new possibilities for the development of natural functional foods.

Judul: Estimating Parameter and the Convergence of Parameter Estimator of Poisson Hidden Markov Model
Abstrak: Model hidden Markov terdiri dari sepasang proses stokastik yaitu proses observasi dan proses yang memengaruhi observasi. Proses stokastik yang memengaruhi observasi ini diasumsikan membentuk rantai Markov dan tidak diamati. Model Poisson hidden Markov (MPHM) adalah salah satu model hidden Markov diskret dan proses observasinya jika diketahui proses yang memengaruhinya diasumsikan menyebar Poisson., A hidden Markov model (HMM) consists of a pair of stochastic processes, that is the observation process and process that affected observation. The stochastic process which causes this observation is assumed to form a Markov chain and is not observed. Poisson hidden Markov models (PHMM) is one of the discrete HMM and the observation process given the cause is assumed having a Poisson distribution.
