Judul: Study on the management of coastal and marine resources of Palaido islands, Kabupaten Biak Numfor, Papua Province
Abstrak: The objectives of this research are to design zoning of coastal and marine resources uses, establish suitability of coastal and marine resources uses, assess carrying capacity of marine and coastal resources, assess cultural and social economics of community, assess community participation in marine and coastal resources management, and develop marine and coastal resources policy. Data and information were collected participatively using a questioner and field survey. Methods of data analysis consist of a numbers of analysis, these are spasial analysis using ageographical information system, suitability analysis, carrying capacity analysis, cultural and social economics analysis, participation analysis, and policy analysis with using SWOT, that is the integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and strengths weaknesses opportunities threats (SWOT).

Judul: Evaluasi Pengelolaan Terumbu Karang di Kawasan Konservasi Laut Daerah Pulau Biawak dan Sekitarnya Kabupaten Indramayu Provinsi Jawa Barat.
Abstrak: The research was conducted in Marine Conservastion Area of Biawak Island of Indramayu, West Java Province. The Marine Conservastion Area is located in the Java Sea, northern part of the Indramayu District which familiar with high pressure from fishings, industries, and other human activities. The objective of the research were to assess condition of coral reefs, to assess role and importance of key stakeholders in the coral reef management and to evaluate current its management and recommend to better coral reef management in the area. I employed Line Intercept Transect, Visual Cencus Methods, Reef Check Benthos, Household interview and Expert interview to collect biophysical and socio-economic data. Coral reefs condition categorized as bad to medium condition with percent coral cover variated among 22,7±5,9% to 45,7±13,2%, 13 families and 39 genuses were found. The density of reef fishes were variated among 5.967±1.767 ind/ha to 20.433±10.355 ind/ha with 85 species and 18 families and the density of benthos were variated among 2.000±1.000 ind/ha to 14.667±14.964 with 29 species and 23 families. Result showed that anthropogenic activities gaves high pressure on coral reef condition. Destructive fishing still practiced around the protected area. Law enforcement, surveillance and monitoring actions were not implemented well. Government institution and private sectors need to be collaborated to create good coral reefs management. Collaboration among stakeholders became the key to successful MPA management. Implementation of management policy need to be focused on protect and conserve coral reefs to restore the condition.

Judul: Gambaran Histomorfologi ginjal tikus putih pada kondisi Hiperglikemia dan pemberian vitamin E.
Abstrak: Diabetes melitus merupakan penyakit yang banyak dijumpai di berbagai belahan dunia. Pengobatan yang dilakukan hanya bertujuan untuk mempertahankan kadar gula darah mendekati kisaran normal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran histomorfologis ginjal tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) dalam kondisi hiperglikemia dan pengaruh pemberian vitamin E. Penelitian ini menggunakan 12 ekor tikus putih jantan galur Sprague Dawley (250 g) yang dibagi menjadi empat kelompok, yaitu kelompok ke-1 sebagai kontrol hanya diberi aquades, kelompok ke-2 diberi vitamin E 80 IU dengan dosis 0.2 ml/ekor, kelompok ke-3 diinduksi streptozotosin (STZ) dosis tunggal 50 mg/kgBB, dan kelompok ke-4 (perlakuan) diberi STZ dengan dosis tunggal dan vitamin E 80 IU selama 19 hari. Pengamatan histopatologi dilakukan dengan menghitung 25 glomerulus untuk setiap ginjal. Tubuli diamati secara deskriptif. Data yang didapat dianalisis dengan uji ANOVA dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan untuk mengetahui tingkat perbedaan (p<0.05). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian vitamin E dengan dosis 80 IU/ekor selama 19 hari dapat mengurangi lesio pada glomerulus berupa degenerasi hingga nekrosa serta pembentukan amiloid pada kelompok diabetik dan non diabetik. Jumlah lesio tertinggi yaitu 19.167±1.155 terdapat pada kelompok STZ sedangkan jumlah lesio terendah yaitu 2.833±1.258 pada kelompok vitamin E.
