Judul: Operational Cost Analysis of Degraded  Forest Rehabilitation Using Gap Planting Technology in the Gap Planting Research  Area of PT. Sarmiento Parakantja Timber
Abstrak: Tanam rumpang adalah salah satu teknologi yang digunakan untuk merehabilitasi hutan terdegradasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini, yaitu mengetahui biaya operasional merehabilitasi hutan terdegradasi pada areal penelitian tanam rumpang di PT. Sarmiento Parakantja Timber, Kalimantan Tengah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode time study, analisis biaya, serta Uji Independent sample t-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa untuk kegiatan operasional rehabilitasi rumpang membutuhkan 86,19 HOK/ha. Rata-rata biaya aktual operasional tanam rumpang sebesar Rp 35.407.765,45/ha. Proporsi biaya operasional terdiri dari tahun pertama 63%, tahun kedua 22%, dan tahun ketiga 15%. Topografi datar-landai dengan sedang mempengaruhi biaya operasional tanam rumpang., Gap planting is one of technology used to rehabilitate degraded forests. The objective of this research was to determine the operational costs of rehabilitating degraded forests in the research area of gap planting in PT Sarmiento Parakantja Timber, Central Kalimantan. The methods used in this research consist of time study method, cost analysis, and statistical test with Independent sample t-test. The results showed that the operational activities of gap rehabilitation needed 86.19 Mandays/ha. The average actual cost of gap planting operational amounted to Rp 35,407,765.45/ha. The proportion of operational costs is 63% in the first year, 22% in the second year, and 15% in the third year. Topography in the gap affects the operational cost of gap planting.

Judul: Analisis Biaya Pemeliharaan Jabon Putih (Anthocephalus cadamba) pada Areal Penelitian Tanam Rumpang di PT Sarmiento Parakantja Timber Kalimantan Tengah
Abstrak: Tanam rumpang merupakan salah satu teknologi untuk merehabilitasi hutan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis biaya kegiatan pemeliharaan jabon putih dalam rumpang pada areal penelitian di PBPH PT. Sarmiento Parakantja Timber. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari metode time study, analisis biaya, dan uji statisik dengan Uji Independent sample t-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa untuk menyelesaikan pemeliharaan rumpang seluas 3,2 ha membutuhkan waktu 12–13 hari dengan jumlah pekerja sebanyak 3–4 orang. Tenaga kerja yang diperlukan untuk menyelesaikan pemeliharaan rumpang ini sebesar 8,5 HOK per ha. Rata-rata biaya aktual pemeliharaan tanaman dalam rumpang yaitu sebesar Rp3.188.301,61/ha, sedangkan biaya standarnya yaitu sebesar Rp3.360.602,96/ha. Proporsi biaya per tahapan yaitu pemupukan 74 %, Penyiangan 19%, dan Pendangiran 7%. Rumpang dengan topografi datar–landai dengan sedang mempengaruhi biaya total pemeliharaan standar, sedangkan biaya total pemeliharaan aktual tidak dipengaruhi kondisi topografi datar–landai maupun sedang., Gap planting is one of technology used in rehabilitation of degraded forest. The objective of this research was to analyze the costs of maintaining white jabon in gaps in the research area at PBPH PT. Sarmiento Parakantja Timber. The method used in this research consists of time study method, cost analysis, and statistical test with Independent sample t-test. The results showed that to complete the maintenance of a 3.2 ha gaps area, it took 12–13 days with a total of 3–4 workers. The labor required to complete the maintenance of these gaps is 8.5 HOK per ha. The average actual cost of plants maintenance in the gap area is Rp3.188.301,61/ha, while the standard cost is Rp3.360.602,96/ha. The proportion of costs per stage of plants maintenance are 74% fertilization, 19%, weeding and 7% post planting soil tillage. Gap planting in flat sloping topography and moderately area affects the total cost of standard maintenance, while the actual total cost of maintenance is not affected by flat or moderate topography.

Judul: Durability of Specific Immunoglobulin (Ig) Y Againts Influenza and Covid-19 in Sunscreen
Abstrak: The benefit of specific immunoglobulin Y (Ig Y) as an active ingredient in personal care products such as sunscreen has not been properly studied. Our study aims to evaluate the reliability of specific IgY against influenza and the COVID-19 virus in a sample sunscreen product. Specific IgY influenza and COVID-19 viruses were inserted in the sample sunscreen at two concentrations of 0.1% and 0.25%. Three treatments were observed: control (C) sunscreen without IgY, treatment 1 (T1) sunscreen with 0.1% IgY, and treatment 2 (T2) sunscreen with 0.25% IgY. Organoleptic observations were carried out to monitor changes in aroma, color, and texture, and sunscreen sampling was done every week for 6 weeks. The durability of IgY was evaluated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a neutralization assay. Organoleptic observation from weeks 1 to 6 showed consistency in its aroma, color, and texture. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and neutralization assay (NA) results of the T1 and T2 groups showed negative results except for sample T1 at week 5, which showed a positive result in the Influenza A ELISA. Based on the results, it seems that IgY concentrations of 0.1% or 0.25% were not optimal. However, this negative result might be due to low concentration of the IgY and the presence of beeswax, which inhibits IgY and causes it to dissolve in distilled water, thus preventing it from being detected in the assay.
