Abstrak: Parboiled rice is rice that is produced through the 5 stages of the process of cleaning, soaking, steaming, drying and milling. Parboiled process is intended to preserve the grain because the grain has been parboiled can not germinate and also to avoid loss and damage to rice, both in terms of nutritional value and yield of rice. This research aims to study the influence of the thickness of the pile on the quality of parboiled rice Ciherang varieties using a thickness of 1, 3, and 5 cm against the physical quality and proximate. Pile thickness affect the drying rate where the thicker the pile the slower rate of drying. Pile thickness of 1 cm is the best based on the quality of its physical parameters and the third treatment was able to maintain the quality and increase the nutritional content based on proximate analysis

Abstrak: The processing of parboiling rice is the process of provision of water and steam heat of grain before the dried and milled grain. The purpose of proceedings parboiling rice is to avoid the loss of nutrient and damage of rice. Several factors can affect the quality of the parboiling rice is the process of grain, old varieties, long soaking, temperature and long steaming, and drying. The purpose of this research is (1) examine the uniformity of grain temperature distribution during the steaming process. (2) examine the influence of long steaming for physical quality of parboiled rice. (3) examine the influence of the nutritional value of old rice steaming process of parboiling rice, and (4) determine the Standard Operational Procedur (SOP) parboiling rice processing process. Processing begins with the cleaning of grain ripening and then soaking the grain in water-60 oC 5 for 4 hours. Once soaked, grain steamed with a temperature of 80 °C for 20 minutes and 30 minutes. Grain and then dried to moisture content 14%. Grains which have been dried and then milled and conducted observation of parboiled rice quality. The treatment of steaming duration has no significantly to the yield milling but significant effect for milling of parboiled rice milling quality. Proximate test results show no effect against old steaming ash content, fat, protein and carbohydrates from parboiled rice. Organoleptik-test that is performed on rice cooking process before it shows that the results of the study process parboiling rice is acceptable to the panelists .Treatment process of parboiling rice on this research led to an increase in yield, ash content, fat, protein, and carbohydrates. The quality of milled parboiling rice based on the standard process of SNI is the quality of the process before the Process V. Parboiling rice processing suggested is by soaking grains at a temperature of 60 °C 5 for 4 hours followed by the steaming at temperature of 80 °C for 20 minutes.

Judul: Infeksi leucocytozzon simondi (Mathis dan Leger, 1910) pada itik
Abstrak: Leucocytozoonosis pada itik adalah penyakit protozoer yang disebabkan oleh parasit darah Leucocytozoon simondi. Protozoa ini ditularkan oleh lalat penghisap darah (Simulium sp.). Di dalam tubuh induk semang antara (vektor) Simulium parasit mengalami tahap gametogoni yang kedua (pembentukan gamet dan pembuahan) dan sporogoni. Pembuahan makrogamet oleh mikrogamet terjadi segera sesudah vektor menghisap darah itik yang mengandung gametosit. Pembuahan menghasilkan zigot yang dapat bergerak (ookinet) yang masuk dinding usus vektor dan kemudian memasuki tahap sporogoni. Tahap sporogoni memerlukan waktu kira-kira 1 minggu (Fallis dan Desser, 1977) untuk menghasilkan sporozoit. Sporozoit bergerak menuju kelenjar ludah vektor, tempat mereka berkumpul. Sporozoit dipindahkan ke dalam tubuh itik pada saat vektor menghisap darah itik. Di dalam tubuh itik, parasit mengalami tahap skizogoni dan tahap gametogoni yang pertama (pembentukan gametosit). Sporozoit memasuki peredaran darah itik dan memasuki sel-sel parenkhim hati membentuk skizon hepatik (Fallis et al., 1974). Setelah 4 6 hari, skizon hepatik dewasa menghasilkan merozoit dan sinsitia. Merozoit dari skizon hepatik memasuki eritrosit dan eritroblas membentuk gametosit bundar, sedangkan sinsitia memasuki sel-sel RES di seluruh tubuh membentuk megaloskizon. Megaloskizon dewasa terbentuk dalam waktu 5 hari di dalam sel-sel itu dan menghasilkan merozoit. Merozoit dari megaloskizon memasuki limfosit dan leukosit lainnya membentuk gametosit memanjang. ...
