Judul: Status Kesejahteraan Hewan Sapi Perah Di Peternakan Sekitar Negeri Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia
Abstrak: Kesejahteraan hewan secara luas digunakan untuk merujuk kepada kualitas hewan hidup. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kesejahteraan hewan di peternakan sapi perah, di lima peternakan di Malaysia. Kesejahteraan hewan dievaluasi melalui „Five Freedom’ untuk memastikan bahwa hewan tersebut tidak menderita. Hal ini juga memberikan gambaran yang jelas kepada peternak tentang manajemen peternakan yang baik dan tindakan pencegahan yang harus diterapkan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa status kesejahteraan hewan di Ternakan Pk, Rajan Milking Dairy, Chellapa Dairy Farm, Mani Dairy Farm dan Sathia Goat Farm belum cukup baik. Pada saat ini, diantara kelima peternakan tersebut tidak ada satu peternakan pun yang memenuhi kriteria terbaik dalam parameter kesejahteraan hewannya.

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: Elektrodeposisi Film Tipis Semikonduktor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) pada Substrat Kaca ITO
Abstrak: Semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film that can be used as absorber layers on solar cell module was made via electrodeposition method. CZTS thin film was electrodeposited on the surface of a silicate glass coated with a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Deposition process was done using potentiostatic mode at room temperature with a potential of 1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes, followed with annealing the film at 2 different temperatures, 500 ºC using furnace and 180 ºC using hot plate, both treatments for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. The X-ray difractograms were analyzed using Match 2 program and showed that the CZTS thin films had kesterit crystalline structure, with a low percentage of CZTS phase. The thin film also contained secondary phases such as Cu2S, ZnS, and SnS. The obtained CZTS thin films had a thickness between 1.039 and 1.676 μm. Absorption study showed that the band gap energy of CZTS thin films which was annealed using furnace ranged from 1.50 to 1.52 eV, whereas that annealed using the hot plate was not observed. The band gap energy value showed that CZTS thin films can be used as sunlight absorber layers on solar cell. The formation of CZTS crystal film on this investigation was effectively performed using furnace annealing process at a temperature of 500 ºC with deposition time of 45 minutes.
