Judul: Animal Welfare awareness of the Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman Students in Sungai Long Campus, Selangor, Malaysia
Abstrak: Kesejahteraan hewan adalah topik lintas disiplin yang luas. Kesejahteraan hewan adalah tanggungjawab manusia terhadap hewan yang penerapannya telah berlaku universal. Oleh karena itu, masyarakat harus memiliki kesadaran terhadap penerapannya. Di Malaysia, masalah kesejahteraan hewan khusus kekejaman terhadap hewan sering disorot dan menarik perhatian media. Penelitian tentang tingkat kesadaran masyarakat terhadap kesejahteraan hewan berdasar prinsip "Five Freedoms" terutama pada hewan peliharaan sangat terbatas di Malaysia. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempelajari kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan mahasiswa Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman dan mengevaluasi hubungan subkelompok seperti bidang studi, kategori usia, status agama dan kepemilikan hewan peliharaan dengan tingkat kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan. Data dari 179 responden dikumpulkan secara online melalui penyebaran kuesioner formulir Google. Secara keseluruhan, tingkat kesadaran responden terhadap kesejahteraan hewan peliharaan tergolong kategori baik. Antara empat subkelompok yang diteliti, tidak ditemukan perbedaan yang nyata secara statistik dalam kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan.

Judul: Kesejahteraan hewan peliharaan dalam ruangan dan hewan peliharaan luar ruangan di Seri Petaling, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Abstrak: Animal welfare is a broad and multi-faceted topic that refers to the accountability of human towards animal well-being. Animal welfare has been receiving growing recognition worldwide that the public should be aware of. In Malaysia, animal welfare issue especially animal cruelty often gets highlighted and attracts media attention. The study of animal welfare awareness based on the “Five Freedoms” mainly in pet animal is underexplored in Malaysia. This study was carried out to evaluate animal welfare awareness of residents in Seri Petaling and the relationship across the subgroups such as fields of study, age categories and religion status. A total of 349 samples were collected online via the dissemination of questionnaire through Google form. Overall, the level of animal welfare awareness specifically in companion animal of the respondents is in medium category. Among the five freedoms being studied, the differences in the level of animal welfare awareness between three types of pet owners were statistically significant. However, among the age and religious categories, the differences in the level of animal welfare awareness were statistically insignificant., Kesejahteraan hewan adalah topik lintas disiplin yang luas. Kesejahteraan hewan adalah tanggungjawab manusia terhadap hewan yang penerapannya telah berlaku universal. Oleh karena itu, masyarakat harus memiliki kesadaran terhadap penerapannya. Di Malaysia, masalah kesejahteraan hewan khusus kekejaman terhadap hewan sering disorot dan menarik perhatian media. Penelitian tentang tingkat kesadaran masyarakat terhadap kesejahteraan hewan berdasar prinsip "Five Freedoms" terutama pada hewan peliharaan sangat terbatas di Malaysia. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempelajari kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan dan mengevaluasi hubungan subkelompok seperti bidang studi, kategori usia dan status agama dengan tingkat kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan dari warga di Seri Petaling. Data dari 349 responden dikumpulkan secara online melalui penyebaran kuesioner formulir Google. Secara keseluruhan, tingkat kesadaran responden terhadap kesejahteraan hewan peliharaan tergolong kategori sedang. Dari lima kebebasan yang diteliti, ditemukan perbedaan yang nyata secara statistik dalam kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan diantara pemilik hewan dari ketiga cara pemeliharaan tersebut. Namun, antara kelompok umur dan agama, perbedaan tingkat kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan secara statistik tidak signifikan.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
