Judul: In Vitro Shoot Induction of Kaempferia parviflora Wall. Ex. Baker
Abstrak: This research aimed to find the best MS salt concentration and cytokinin (BAP) concentration for K. parviflora rapid multiplication by using in vitro buds as explants. The experiment was done at Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory of Agronomy and Horticulture Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University from January to November 2011. This research began by sterilizing shoots of K. parviflora rhizomes received from PT. Ogawa Indonesia to produce axenic culture. After about 8 weeks of growth, young shoots began to sprout. The young shoots of K. parviflora axenic culture were then cut and cultured individually on the treatment medium, which consist of two different MS salt concentrations (MS and ½ MS) and five different 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) concentrations (0, 1.25, 2.5, 3.75, and 5 ppm) respectively. Explants started to grow after 2 weeks of culture. Both MS salt concentration and BAP concentration treatments did not give a significant effect on the first shoot induction time, but ½ MS medium supplemented with 5 ppm BAP could induce first shoot faster than other treatments, which is within an average of 2.5 weeks after cultured (WAC). At early observation (2 to 4 WAC), medium enriched with 3.75 ppm BAP induced more shoot than the other treatments, but at the end, control medium (MS0) induced more shoot than other treatments. Starting from 2 WAC, the explants cultured on 0 ppm BAP medium grow more rapidly than the other treatments, but after 10 WAC, they grow slower. All treatments have the same trend of leaf growth. At 2 to 8 WAC, the number of leaves is rising rapidly, but at the 9 WAC, it began to slow down.

Judul: Inisiasi Rimpang Mikro Kaempferia parviflora Secara In Vitro dengan Penambahan BAP dan Sukrosa
Abstrak: Kaempferia parviflora is a medicinal plant that contains secondary metabolites and efficacious for treating various diseases. Rapid multiplication of K. parviflora through its rhizome is hamprered by the long period needed to produce the rhizome. The objectives of this research were to obtain the best sucrose concentration and to determine the best BAP concentration in the in vitro micro rhizome initiation of K. parviflora. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications. The first factor was BAP concentration, consisted of three levels i.e. 0, 2, and 4 mg L¯1. The second factor was sucrose concentration, consisted of four levels i.e. 0, 30, 60, and 90 g L¯1. Data obtained were analyzed by F-test, followed by DMRT (Duncan Multiple Range Test) at 5 % significant level. Sucrose concentration significantly affected the number of shoots and plantlets fresh weight. The results showed that K. parviflora could form micro rhizome in vitro, as indicated by the similar anatomical structure compared to the rhizome produced in vivo. K. parviflora cultured in MS medium cointaining 90 g L¯1 sucrose without BAP had the highest number of micro rhizome at 8 WAC.

Judul: Analisis strategi perusahaan pada PT. Reasuransi nasional Indonesia
Abstrak: Reasuransi yaitu persetujuan antara penanggung (ceding company) dan reasuradur, dimana penanggung menyetujui untuk menyerahkan/melimpahkan seluruh atau sebagian resiko atas suatu pertanggungan yang ditutupnya (ditanggung) kepada reasuradur, dan dengan menerima premi dari penanggung sebagaimana telah ditetapkan sebelumnya, reasuradur menyetujui untuk membayar ganti rugi kepada penanggung berhubung dengan kerugian yang terjadi atas pertanggungan yang ditutupnya tersebut, semuanya itu berdasarkan atas syarat-syarat sebagaimana ditetapkan dalam perjanjian. Ceding company atau reinsured biasanya adalah sebuah perusahaan asuransi, sedangkan reasuradur atau reinsurer adalah sebuah perusahaan asuransi atau perusahaan reasuransi.
