Judul: Pengaruh Green Marketing Terhadap Elemen Keputusan Pembelian Produk The Body Shop Di Botani Square, Bogor
Abstrak: The rate of import cosmetics sales in Indonesia is experiencing a positive growth. There are a number of similar import cosmetics competing to attract consumers. Consumers need ideal cosmetic products, which is safe for health . The Body Shop offers cosmetic products that are suitable with the needs of a product that is as not only a natural cosmetic but also eco-friendly cosmetic or which is called as green cosmetics. The marketing concept is by raising environmental values, or better known as green marketing. This study aims to analyze the influence of green marketing on product purchasing decisions of The Body Shop of Botani Square using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results of SEM analysis showed that green marketing has a positive influence on the buying decision element. Variables of green marketing that are green products, green place, and green promotion have positive and significant influence contributed to green marketing, except green price.

Judul: Pengaruh Faktor-Faktor Green Product Terhadap Keputusan Pembelian Produk The Body Shop di Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Green marketing merupakan proses perencanaan dan melaksanakan bauran pemasaran untuk memudahkan konsumsi, produksi, distribusi, promosi, pengemasan, dan reklamasi produk dengan cara yang sensitif atau positif terhadap masalah lingkungan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi karakteristik konsumen, menganalisis pengaruh green input, process, output, dan pengetahuan terhadap keputusan pembelian produk The Body Shop. Metode penentuan sampel menggunakan metode convinience sampling yang melibatkan 100 orang responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan karakteristik konsumen didominasi oleh wanita pada rentang usia 23-28 tahun yang sebagian besar merupakan pelajar/mahasiwa dan memiliki pendapatan antara Rp 1000.000 – Rp 2.000.000, - setiap bulannya. Hasil analisis Partial Least Squares (PLS) menunjukkan terdapat pengaruh green input, green output, dan pengetahuan terhadap keputusan pembelian dengan nilai koefisien masing-masing sebesar 0.3043, 0.3325, 0.3233, sedangkan green process tidak berpengaruh terhadap keputusan pembelian karena memiliki nilai t-statistik yang lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan t-tabel.

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.
