Judul: Pencegahan Bruselosis Pada Sapi Potong Melalui Tindakan Karantina Di Pelabuhan Pantoloan Ke Kalimantan Timur
Abstrak: Sulawesi Tengah merupakan daerah potensial lalulintas perdagangan komoditi peternakan antar Pulau khususnya ke Kalimantan Timur. Sejak 2009 berdasarkan keputusan Menteri Pertanian, Kalimantan Timur merupakan daerah bebas Bruselosis sehingga perlu dilakukan tindakan pencegahan terhadap kejadian Bruselosis di daerah bebas khususnya ternak sapi potong dari Pelabuhan Pantoloan Sulawesi Tengah dengan status daerah belum diketahui terhadap kejadian bruselosis. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui tingkat keberhasilan tindakan pencegahan karantina terhadap bruselosis di Balai Karantina Pertanian Kelas II Palu terhadap sapi potong yang akan dilalulintaskan ke daerah bebas negatip terhadap bruselosis setelah dilakukan pengujian serologis Rose Bengal test (RBT) . Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara pengambilan sampel darah pada sapi potong melalui vena jugularis sebelum dilalulintaskan ke antar daerah untuk dikoleksi serumnya. Metode pengambilan sampel yang digunakan adalah 100% sehingga didapatkan sejumlah 244 sampel. Uji skrining menggunakan Rose Bengal test (RBT) dilakukan di Laboratorium Karantina Hewan BKP Kelas II Palu, kemudian dilakukan uji banding Rose Bengal Test (RBT) dan complement fixation test (CFT) di Balai Besar Penelitian Veteriner (BBalitvet) Bogor. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sejumlah 244 sampel negatif karena tidak ditemukan reaktor positif berdasarkan hasil uji serologis.

Judul: Kajian Brusellosis Pada Sapi Dan Kambing Potong Yang Dilalulintaskan Di Penyebrangan Merak Banten
Abstrak: Brusellosis adalah penyakit menular yang berhubungan dengan pekerjaan, seperti pengantar susu, petugas laboratorium, dokter hewan, inseminator, peternak, pemuliaan sapi dan lain-lain. Penyakit yang disebabkan oleh infeksi B. melitensis disebut undulant fever atau Malta fever. Sedangkan yang disebabkan oleh infeksi B. abortus disebut Bang’s. Keduanya merupakan zoonosis. Penyakit ini dapat terjadi pada hewan domestik (kambing, babi, sapi anjing dan lain-lain) dan manusia, menyebar di seluruh dunia terutama pada negara berkembang. Metode pemeriksaan dengan RBT, CFT, I-ELISA dan SDS-PAGE, Jumlah contoh diperoleh secara bertingkat (multiple state). Ukuran contoh untuk deteksi penyakit secara selektif dalam populasi hewan. Data hasil pemeriksaan dianalisa dengan menggunakan metode statistika deskriptif.

Judul: The Effects of Variance of Interest rate to Variance of Annuity Future Values
Abstrak: Time value of money is a concept that refers to the difference of the value of money due to time difference. The value of money for present time would not be the same as the value of money in the future. The value of money for present time is called as Present Value (PV) of the money and the value of money for future time is called Future Value (FV) of the money. Determination the value of money, for present and future time, depends on the time and rate of return. The value of money is determined by several factors such as inflation, fluctuation of interest rates, and government policy in securities and taxation. Due to fluctuation of the value of money we need a FV formulation, it is useful for knowing whether an investment can be profitable or not, and this information is useful also in budget analysis. Annuity is defined as a series of payments made for a specific period. The payment, fixed or varied, can be made at the beginning or at the end of the period. Annuity paid at the beginning of the period is called annuity-due and annuity paid at the end of the period is called immediate annuity-certain. The accumulated value of the annuity after few years later is called as a final value or a future value. Burnecki et al. (2003) have discussed about the FV of a fixed-rate annuity in which payments are made according to the arithmetic or geometric series. They have also examined FV for annuities in which payments are made according to arithmetic or geometric series with random rates of interest. This paper examines FV for annuity-due in which payments are made according to arithmetic or geometric series with interest rates as a random variable, which is normal distribution ,  . Future value formula is expressed in recursive form. FV for annuity-due which payments are made according to the arithmetic or geometric series with random rates of interest is calculated by theoretical way and simulation way. The random rates of interest is denoted as k k i  i  , where k i an independent random variable; i is a constant and k  is a random variable which has normal distribution ,  . By using the determined parameters, a sequence of random rates of interest are generated for theoretical calculation. Meanwhile for the simulation, the random rates of interest is generated 1000 times for the simulation. The generated data give mean value, variance, and standard deviation. Moreover, error of mean value, variance, and standard deviation from the theoretical and simulation results are calculated. Error calculation uses Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (SMAPE). The smaller the value of SMAPE is the more accurate the simulation. The interest rate variances are varied from 0.000036 to 0.0001 to study the relationship between variance of rates of interest and variance of future value. The theoretical and simulation results show that when the variance of random rates of interest increases, then the variance of FV increases linearly. FV of the annuity-due in
