Judul: Pemanfaatan Khitosan Udang Windu (Penaeus monodon) dalam Minuman Kaya Serat Makanan
Abstrak: Salah satu alternatif pemanfaatan limbah udang, khususnya untk kulit udang, khususnya untuk kulit udang, adalah sebagai sumber khitosan. Hal ini didukung pula oleh penggunaan khitosan yang semakin hari semakin meluas di berbagai bidang, terutama di negara-negara yang sudah maju. Khitosan merupakan produk deasetilasi khitin, dengan polimer rantai panjang glukosamin (2-amino-2-deoksiglukosa. Khitosan tidak larut dalam air, namun larut dalam asam organik.

Judul: Pemanfaatan Khitosan dari Limbah Kulit Udang sebagai Bahan Kosmetik
Abstrak: Khitosan merupakan biopolimer polisakarida yang diekstrak dari kulit dan kepala udang. Kulit dan kepala udang merupakan limbah industri pengolahan udang, yang selama ini baru dimanfaatkan sebagai pakan ternak, bahan pembuat trasi dan krupuk udang. Pemanfaatan kulit udang menjadi khitosan merupakan alternatif yang baik mengingat banyak kegunaannya dalam industri.

Judul: Pengukuran Jantung Kelinci New Zealand White (Oryctolagus cuniculus) dengan Radiografi Toraks
Abstrak: This research was conducted to evaluate radiographs heart size of anaesthetized New Zealand White rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) under different combination of ketamine and xylazine. The rabbits were divided into three groups. Group A were anaesthetized using a 35 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg combination of ketamine and xylazine (n=5). Group B were anaesthetized using a 40 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg combination of ketamine and xylazine (n=3) while group C were anaesthetized using 45 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg combination of ketamine and xylazine (n=3). Parameter of observation from left laterolateral view were: 1) the apicobasilar length of the heart (AB), 2) the width of the heart (CD), 3) the distance between the cranial edge of the fifth rib and the caudal edge of the seventh rib perpendicular to the spine (R5-7), and 4) the vertical depth of the toraks (H). Parameter of observation from dorsoventral view were: 1) the length of the heart (L), 2) the width of the heart (W), and 3) the width of the thorax (T). The result from the heart parameters observation that were measured in left laterolateral view and dorsoventral view shows theres no significantly differ among the groups (P > 0.05). The vertebrae heart size (VHS) values obtained from the sum of the length of the long and the short axes on left laterolateral view. The long axes mean values (A) were 4.35±0.26 v and the short axes mean values (B) were 3.59±0.30 v, therefore VHS mean values were 7.94±0.49 v. On the dorsoventral view, the length of the heart mean values (L) were 4.32±0.29 cm, the width of the heart mean values (W) were 3.33±0.26 cm, and the width of the thorax mean values (T) were 5.85±0.30 cm. In normal conditions, the width of the heart should be less than two-thirds the width of the thorax and values obtained of 3.33<3.72 it shows that the heart is in the normal range. The best ratio to calculated the normal heart dimension in the left laterolateral view was compared the long axes with the vertical depth of the thorax, whereas in dorsoventral view, the length of the heart was compared with the width of the heart.
