Judul: Ekstraksi Inhibitor Protease dari Sponge dan Potensi Daya Hambatnya terhadap Protease Bakteri Patogen.
Abstrak: Semakin jelasnya keterlibatan enzim protease di dalam mekanisme molekular penyakit asal bakteri, virus, malaria, kanker, tumor, dan penyakit yang muncul baru-baru ini seperti SARS, bahkan penyakit degeneratif seperti Alzheimer menyebabkan meningkatnya perhatian terhadap protease sebagai target senyawa obat bagi penyakit-penyakit tersebut. Desain atau pencarian inhibitor spesifik atau senyawa anti protease target tersebut dapat dilakukan, untuk selanjutnya dikembangkan sebagai obat. Pencarian sumber inhibitor alamiah enzim protease kmi sudah merambah ke arah organisme laut. Diantara berbagai jenis organisme yang hidup di laut, sponge merupakan sumber yang paling produktif menghasilkan komponen bioaktif. Metabolit sekunder seperti terpenoid, alkaloid, peptida, bioaktif asam lemak dan steroid merupakan komponen yang umum terdapat di dalam sponge. Di pasaran, saat ini senyawa-senyawa potensial yang berasal dari sponge seperti Bastadin 5, Bastadin 19 dan Manoalide dihargai sangat mahal. Maka dari itu perlu dilakukan penelitian untuk mencari sponge laut yang potensial dan mengisolasi komponen inhibitor protease potensial yang salah satunya terhadap protease yang diproduksi oleh bakteri patogen penyebab penyakit.

Judul: Screening and characterization of protease inhibitor from  bacteria-associated with sponge, from pulau Panggang waters, Seribu islands
Abstrak: The important causing cause foodborne diseases are Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Listeria spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Protease produced by these bacteria are involved in the molecular mechanisms of the diseases. Therefore, there has been rapidly increase concern on proteases as medical target for bacterium diseases. Various sponges has been reported to produce protease inhibitor which could inhibit protease activity of pathogenic bacteria. The previous research showed that bacteria-associated with sponge could produce bioactive compound similar with their host. Therefore, there is a possibility that the bacteria also produce protease inhibitor.

Abstrak: Bare-throathed whistler is one of several wild birds in Kelimutu National Park (TNKL) that is believed to have correlation with Lio Community‟s belief. The estimation of Bare-throated whistler‟s population in Kelimutu National Park was about 186.41-1668.07 individual by the density about 0.0389-0.3481 ind/ha with the sex ratio 6.2:1 that spreaded on area with height of 1100 – 1600 masl. The characteristic of Bare-throated whistler‟s habitat is a natural forest with various canopy level, high plant species diversity and high density. The habitat characteristics related to the availability of food in the form of insects, cover, safety and a nesting site. Generally the most of Lio community knew the existence of Bare-throated whistler directly or from their parents‟ stories. The perceptions of Lio Community to the Bare-throated whistler‟s existence is generally support the conservation efforts. The perceptions construct the Lio Community‟s atitude that tend to be conservative to the existence of Bare-throated whistler. The attitude shown by their behavior that not cathing the Bare-throated whistler from the TNKL‟s area or the outside. The attitude have an important role to the existence of Bare-throated whistler in Kelimutu National Park‟s area.
