Judul: Prototype Mobile GIS Kampus IPB Darmaga Menggunakan J2ME, GeoServer, dan Jaringan Wi-Fi
Abstrak: Bogor Agricultural University has a vast land area and identical building shape consisting of nine faculties and thirty eight departments. Many university students, especially freshman who are not familiar with the entire building’s site campus, in particular the location of lecture halls. In order to resolve the issue, a dynamic and accessible Geographic Information Systems for IPB Darmaga campus needs to be built. The aims of this research is to create and display a dynamic map for IPB campus as a mobile-based GIS. The system prototype used J2ME, GeoServer, and the campus Wi-Fi network used for location-based services. The prototype was built as a three-tier system that has three components: the client, the web server, and the database server. The client serves as a presentation tier for running the application. The web server consists of GeoServer as web map server, and Apache web server. GeoServer serves as an application to store and process geospatial data and sends a response in the form of maps and its information to client. A PHP web application serves as the application for processing location data based on SSID Wi-Fi sent by client. System provides functions to select and display map layers, and there are additional menus such as Zoom in, Zoom out, Refresh, Reset view, GetFeatureInfo, the menu to request information about specific features shown on the map, and MyLocation, the menu used to identify user’s location based on Wi-Fi network.

Judul: Sistem Informasi Geografis Ruang Kuliah Kampus IPB Dramaga Berbasis Mobile dengan Platform Android OS
Abstrak: Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) which is located in Dramaga, Bogor, West Java has a wide area and has a lot of lecture halls. This has caused many residents of IPB, especially new students have difficulties knowing every location of the lecture halls. Today, GIS technology has been integrated with mobile devices such as Android to ease developer to build an interactive mobile GIS application. The purpose of this study is to develop a mobile-based geographical information system for lecture halls in IPB Dramaga with Android platform that can provide location information using linear sequential model. this research resulted in a mobile GIS application that can display a map from Google Maps which has been added with locations of lecture halls in IPB selected by the user. This application also provide information about distance and signpost between the lecture halls locations and the user location. Another feature is to display information of the lecture halls as images of the lecture halls, faculties, and the building where the lecture halls exist.

Judul: Buprenorphine and Fischer-344 Rats Post-operative Stress Levels: Impact on Serum Corticosterone Levels.
Abstrak: The use of laboratory animals in experiment often requires surgical operations. Post-operative condition often associated with pain and stress. Preemptive analgesia and post operative treatment with buprenorphine can reduce post operative pain and stress and prevent prolonged pain. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that pre operative treatment of buprenorphine reduces stress and suppresses the pre-operative serum corticosterone levels in Fischer 344 rats. A total of 14 adult male Fischer 344 (F344/Sca) rats permanently catheterized in artery carotis communis were used. During 94 hour post-operatively the blood sample was collected at specific time point using Accusampler®, an automated blood sampling. Corticosterone levels were quantified with ELISA method using sheep polyclonal antibody to corticosterone. Buprenorphine is effective as pre-emptive analgesia in F344 strain. However the dose is higher than what has been reported in Sprague Dawley strain. Buprenorphine 1.0 mg/kg significantly suppressed serum corticosterone levels immediately after rats regain consciousness. Rats in buprenorphine 1.0 mg/kg group were protected from post operative body weight loss and reduced water intake compare to control, nutella, and buprenorphine 0.4 mg/kg group. Quantification of fecal corticosteroid metabolites failed to detect stress in present study.
