Judul: Status yodium, status gizi, dan kecerdasan pada anak sekolah dasar di wilayah pegunungan Kabupaten Cianjur
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis status iodium, status gizi dan skor kecerdasan kognitif (skor IQ); dan untuk menganalisis korelasi antara yodium status dan status gizi dengan kecerdasan kognitif dan prestasi akademik di kalangan siswa sekolah dasar. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 155 siswa sekolah dasar. Data penelitian dikumpulkan dengan cara pengukuran, wawancara menggunakan kuesioner, dan diperoleh dari instansi terkait. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa rerata status iodium siswa termasuk dalam kategori ringan kekurangan (median 60,0 µg/L). Berdasarkan indeks BMI/A, sebagian besar siswa (86,5%) berstatus gizi normal, sedangkan berdasarkan indeks H/A, pelajar dikategorikan status gizi normal lebih rendah yaitu 54,8%. Kebanyakan siswa memiliki kecerdasan kognitif sebagai “rata-rata” (58,1%) dan di bawahnya rata-rata (37,4%). Lebih dari separuh siswa (62,6%) mempunyai prestasi akademis prestasi yang dikategorikan “baik”. Berdasarkan uji korelasi spearman, Terdapat hubungan yang cukup signifikan antara status iodium dengan kognitif cerdas (p=0,064) dan juga prestasi akademik (p=0,051). Disana ada tidak ada korelasi antara kecerdasan kognitif dan status gizi diukur dengan indeks BMI/A (p=0,266) atau indeks H/A (p=0,376). Selain itu, di sana tidak ada korelasi yang signifikan antara prestasi akademik dan gizi status, baik dengan indeks BMI/A (p=0,472) maupun indeks H/A (p=0,174). Namun, Uji korelasi spearman menunjukkan adanya korelasi yang positif dan signifikan status iodium dan status gizi, baik berdasarkan BMI/A (p=0,003) maupun H/A (p=0,033), kecerdasan kognitif dan prestasi akademik (p=0,000).

Abstrak: The study was aimed to analyze iodine status, nutritional status and intelligence and also to analyze correlation between iodine status and nutritional status with cognitive intelligent and academic achievement among elementary school students. The samples were 142 students of elementary school. The results showed that the mean of iodine status of students was categorized as leftover. Based on BMI/A and H/A index, having normal nutritional status. Most of students were having cognitive intelligent as “average”. Highest percentage of categorized academic achievement is “sufficient”. Based on pearson correlation test, there was a no significant correlation between iodine status with cognitive intelligent and also with academic achievement. There was significant between cognitive intelligent and nutritional status measured by H/A index, but have no correlation by BMI/A index. Almost significant correlation showed between academic achievement and nutritional status with H/A index, but have no correlation by BMI/A index. No significant correlation also showed between iodine status and nutritional status, whether by BMI/A or by H/A.

Judul: Isolasi Konstruksi dan Rekombinasi Gen Pengkode Reverse Transcriptase asal Simian Retrovirus-2 (SRV-2)
Abstrak: The availability of reverse transcriptase enzym as a valuable component for Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) technique has been providing by foreign companies. Therefore, it needs more cost and time to provide it. This study is an early step to produce in house reverse transcriptase rekombinant enzym from SRV-2. The purpose of this study was isolated, constructed, and rekombined SRV-2 reverse transcriptase gene to entry clone and destination vector. Isolation was done by PCR amplification technique using three pairs of primers, which are RT I (3282-3683), RTII (3261-3900), and RTIII (3169-4133). Construction and recombination in this study used Gateway method from Invitrogen. SRV-2 reverse transcriptase gene was isolated in this study with A-549 cell inoculated SRV-2 as source of virus. This gene amplify by PCR technique and resulted specific band for RTI 401 bp, RTII 639 bp, and RTIII 964 bp. Analysis of pENTR/SD/TOPO and pDEST17 indicated SRV-2 reverse transcriptase gene code has already inserted to this plasmid. This result indicated SRV-2 reverse transcriptase gene have isolated, constructed, and recombined to entry clone and destination vector.
