Judul: Formulasi Beras Analog Putih Berbasis Pati Sagu (Metroxylon sagu R.), Singkong (Manihot esculentas Crantz), dan Ampas Kelapa (Cocos nucifera L.)
Abstrak: White analogue rice formulated in this research was made of several nonrice local carbohydrate sources: sago starch (Metroxylon sagu R), cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz), and coconut pulp (Cocos nucifera L.). The purpose of this research was to obtain formulation of white analogue rice from above mentioned main materials. Several parameters were measured, those are color analysis (whiteness index) and sensory analysis. It was found that the addition of coconut pulp significantly affected the quality of analogue rice. The addition of coconut pulp to the formulation (5-15%) resulted in a decrease of analogue rice whiteness index. Sensory analysis showed that rice formula with 5% of coconut pulp was the most acceptable one (uncooked rice). For cooked rice, formula with 15% of coconut pulp was the most acceptable one. Although for flavor and texture attributes were not significantly different (p>0.05), thus the 5% of coconut pulp formulation was chosen as the best formula. It had lower moisture (7.41%) and protein contents (0.61%), but higher ash (0.73%), fat (3.41%), and carbohydrate contents (94.88%).

Judul: Formulation and Characterization of Analogue Rice made of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas), Sago Starch (Metroxylon sp), and Maize Flour (Zea mays)
Abstrak: Rice as the main carbohydrate source in Indonesia has created an unavoidable dependency. Constraints in consuming other carbohydrate sources are caused by unavailability of easy processed product, lack of nutrition knowledge and psychological readiness, and also lack of food product that can fulfill people’s taste. Therefore, food diversification needs a precise means so it can be consumed as staple food. Analogue rice is artificial rice made of non-rice and non-wheat raw material using twin screw extruder. Analogue rice made of sweet potato, sago starch, and maize flour has been formulated and characterized using hedonic test and physicochemical analysis. This analogue rice excellences are using low-processed sweet potato roots as one of the main ingredient, which consume less energy and consequently lower production cost, and high in thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, K, P, Fe, and Ca 2-3 times than polished rice from the combination of sweet potato, sago starch, and maize flour. The formulation for sweet potato pulp: sago starch: maize flour was 3: 1.5: 2.5. The analogue rice processing used cooking twin screw extruder at , furthermore its chemical compositions were examined. The result showed that the analogue rice contains 82.61% of carbohydrate, 0.83 ± 0.01 % of fat, 4.60 ± 0.16 % of protein, 10.26 ± 0.76 % of moisture, and 0.83 ± 0.02 % of ash. Addition of 0.1 % gelling agent hydrocolloid (alginate, carrageenan, konjac) improved the texture quality with carrageenan 0.1% decreased the hardness also konjac 0.1% increased the stickiness, however did not improve the hydration properties of analogue rice.

Judul: Theileriosis pada domba dan kambing akibat infeksi theileria ovis dan theileria hirci
Abstrak: Theileriosis adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan Boleh protozoa dari genus Theileria dan ditularkan melalui vektor caplak. Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci pernah dimasukkan dalam genus Gonderia sehingga penyakit yang disebabkan oleh penyakit ini mempunyai beberapa nama diantaranya Benign Ovine and Caprine Gonderiosis atau Benign Ovine and Caprine Theileriosis (disebabkan oleh infeksi Theile- ria ovis). Sedang yang disebabkan oleh infeksi Theileria hirci diberi nama Malignant Ovine and Caprine Gonderiosis Malignant Ovine and Caprine Theileriosis (Levine, 1961). Soulsby (1982) dan Jensen (1983), memasukkan Theileria hirci dan Theileria ovis dalam genus Theileria, famili Theileriidae, ordo Piroplasmida, subklas Piroplasmia dan dalam kelas Sporozoa. Menurut hasil pemeriksaan theileriosis pada domba dan kambing di Indonesia periode 1 April 1981 sampai 31 Maret 1982 di Propinsi Sumatera Barat di Daerah Tingkat II Pasaman Kecamatan Talamun ditemukan pada 2 ekor kambing kacang, Kecamatan Sungai Beremas ditemukan pada 3 ekor kambing kacang dan di Daerah Tingkat II Padang Pariaman, Kecamatan Pariaman ditemukan pada 1 ekor kambing kacang (Informasi Keswan, 1982). Daerah penyebaran Theileria ovis yang pernah dilapor- kan adalah Afrika Tengah, Afrika Barat, Afrika Timur, Afrika Selatan, Perancis, Jerman, Hongaria, Sardinia dan diduga India. Sedangkan penyebaran Theileria hirci meli- puti Afrika Utara, Eropa Selatan, Irak dan Turki. Bentuk Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci pada domba dan kambing dalam eritrosit disebut piroplasma dan bentuk dalam limfosit disebut Koch bodies atau skizon. Bentuk dalam vektor caplak adalah zigot dan kinet. Di dalam eritrosit parasit ini mempunyai beberapa macam bentuk yaitu, bentuk bulat, oval, batang, bentuk buah pir atau koma dan bentuk seperti anaplasma. Bentuk dalam limfosit berupa skizon yang terdiri dari makroskizon dan mikroskizon. Penularan Theileria ovis dan Theileria hirci dari hewan satu ke hewan lain secara alam dilakukan oleh vektor caplak secara stage to stage. Vektor dari Theileria ovis adalah caplak dari genus Rhipicephalus, Dermacentor, Hae- mophysalis dan Ornithodorus. Sedangkan vektor dari Thei- leria hirci yaitu caplak dari genus Rhipicephalus dan di- duga Ornithodorus. Penularan secara buatan dapat dilakukan dengan cara mekanik (penyuntikan dengan aplikasi intravena, subkutan dan intraperitoneal)…dst
