Judul: Model Matematis Perubahan Kualitas Air di Daerah Aliran Sungai (DAS) Citarum, Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Water is vital requirement in many metabolic process of organism. Water stock which is stabil can’t meet the requirements of organism which is keeps increasing. It becomes worst by decreasing of water’s quality caused by human’s bad activity such as release waste into river. There are many watercourse in Indonesia which has been polluted and don’t worth to be consumed for many requirements. One of them is Citarum river in West Java. Citarum river has 270 km long. Its upstream is in Wayang mountain, Bandung regency. Its watercourse passing through some regions in Purwakarta regency and downstreamed in Jakarta, Bekasi and Karawang. There are three weirs in DAS Citarum (Saguling, Cirata and Jatiluhur) which functioned to controll water for irrigation (>85%) and the rest for electrical generator, drinking water and industrial requirements. Because of the important functions of Citarum river and its three weirs, thus needed a mathematic model of water quality change to estimate the value of water quality from upstream to downstream. The objectives of this research are to knowing water quality of Citarum river in BOD, COD and TSS parameters which is taken from 10 observation points from upstream to downstream, to make a model of water quality changes, and to observate the effect of three weirs in DAS Citarum to water quality changes of Citarum river. This research held by collect secondary data of water quality in 2008 and some other supporting data which is proccessed by Microsoft Office Excel 2007 Software, compared with Goverment Regulation Number 82 Year 2001 and its graphics analyzed and then made its mathematic model. The result of this research is model of water quality changes of DAS Citarum in 2008, that is in wet month (March) for BOD parameter is y = 5E-14x3 - 9E-09x2 + 0,000x + 5,902 with R2 = 0,892, COD parameter is y = 2E-14x3 - 4E-09x2 + 0,000x + 2,433 with R2 = 0,854, and TSS parameter is y = 1E-13x3 - 3E-08x2 + 0,001x + 238,5 with R² = 0,884. Model of water quality changes of DAS Citarum in dry month (July) for BOD parameter is y = 1E-09x2 - 0,000x + 26,50 with R2 = 0,673, COD parameter is y = 7E-11x2 - 0,000x + 10,14 with R2 = 0,693 and TSS parameter is y = 3E-13x3 - 5E-08x2 + 0,002x + 190,4 with R2 = 0,963. Based on result of this research, known that BOD, COD and TSS values in each observation point from upstream to downstream has a fluctuative distribution. Distance of observation point from water spring doesn’t affect the water quality changes, depend on the existence of polluter source in thet area. Distribution pattern of water quality for those three parameters show that weir could controll water quality, that is pollutan which released from weir could be decreased because the pollutant sedimented in weir base.

Judul: Model Matematis Perubahan Kualitas Air Sungai (BOD, COD, TSS) Terhadap Jarak Di Daerah Aliran Sungai (DAS) Brantas, Jawa Timur
Abstrak: Industrial activities, domestic, and other activities can give negative impact on water resources, such as quality change of river water. The objectives of this reaserch wereto determine the water quality of rivers in the Brantas watershed with the parameters BOD, COD, and TSS, to analyze the relationship of water quality parameters (BOD , COD , and TSS) to the distance from the shoreline, and tomake the model of river water quality ofBrantas watershed using regression analysis. The reaserch was conducted by collecting secondary data of Brantas River water quality, dischargedata, and rainfall data in Brantas watershed, as well as the digitizing the distance from shoreline using ArcGIS version 10 and Google earth . The results was compared withGoverment Regulation Number 82in 2001. From the analyses results could beconcluded that the water quality in the Brantas river (based on parameters of BOD , COD , and TSS)in the upstream, midstream, and downstream were classified to III grade and water quality changes in the Brantas river was not affected by distance to shoreline. The water riverquality were influenced by the presence of pollutant source area at the Brantas riverside, such as industrial waste, domestic, agriculture, plantation, and farm. In addition, obtained mathematical model of water quality changeswith parameters BOD, COD, and TSS at the maximum discharge condition (February 2013) and minimum discharge (August 2013)

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
