Abstrak: Coffee shop di Indonesia memang sedang booming belakangan ini. Salah satu coffee shop kelas dunia yang dikenal dan menjadi ikon global dalam industri kopi adalah Starbucks. Starbucks memiliki jaringan toko yang luas di seluruh dunia dan menjadi satu-satunya brand F&Byangmasuk dalam daftar 10 brand terdepan yang dinobatkan oleh Asia’s Top 1000 Brands. Pencapaian ini menunjukkan kompetensi Starbucks dalam pemasaran dan penjualan produknya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh brand awareness, trial, preference, halal awareness, dan halal certification terhadap purchase intention produk Starbucks di Jabodetabek. Sumber data yangdigunakan terdiri dari data primer berupakuesioner dan data sekunder berupa studi literatur. Teknik penarikan sampel pada penelitian ini menggunakan metode non-probability sampling melaluimetode quota sampling dengan 300 responden. Metode pengolahan dan analisis data pada penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif dan SEM-PLS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa brand awareness, trial, dan preference berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap purchase intention. Sedangkan variabel halal awareness dan halal certification tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap purchase intention produk Starbucks di Jabodetabek.

Judul: Pemurnian dan karakterisasi protein inhibitor RNA helikase virus hepatitis C
Abstrak: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the second most common chronic viral infection in the world with global prevalence. This infection is contribution to chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis, often leading to hepatocellular carcinoma. There is no effective drug and vaccine available against HCV. The current standard treatment, a combination of pegylated interferon-α with ribavirin, is limited by its suboptimal response rate in a significant patient population, side effects, and affordability. Therefore, development of effective drug is needed. One approach to find out the candidate of antiviral drug is to discover the inhibitor of enzyme that essential for virus replication, such as RNA helicase. Streptomyces chartreusis 5-095 produce the inhibitor of HCV RNA helicase. The aim of this study was to purify the protein inhibitor which has inhibition activity against ATPase activity of RNA helicase HCV from S. chartreusis 5-095. The supernatant of culture S. chartreusis 5-095 exhibited high inhibiton activity against ATPase activity of RNA helicase HCV (approximately 72%) at 10 days of incubation. The extracellular protein inhibitor was partially purified by procedures of precipitation with ammonium sulfate to 65% saturation and gel filtration (Sephadex G50) using methanol water solution (4:6) as an eluen. The purity of protein inhibitor was monitored by SDS PAGE. The protein inhibitor showed a relative molecular mass were estimated to be 14 kDa and increased the purity 23,08 fold than those of the crude protein. The specific activity and IC50 after purification were 13,1338 U/mg and 0,0767 mg/mL, respectively. The activity of purified protein inhibitor showed its stability over pH range from 5-8 and optimum at pH 7,4. The inhibition activity showed its stability up to 70% at temperature 100 oC. The purified protein inhibitor relatively stable its activity at storage in the range of -20 oC to room temperature for 35 days.
