Judul: Karakteristik Kualitas Telur Tetas dan Perkembangan Tulang Belakang (Somite) Embrio Ayam Arab pada Umur Telur yang Berbeda
Abstrak: Umur telur merupakan salah satu faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi kualitas telur tetas yang digunakan dalam penetasan. Penyimpanan telur yang semakin lama akan menurunkan kualitas telur. Kualitas telur tetas meliputi kualitas eksterior dan interior, faktor ini dapat mempengaruhi perkembangan embrio di dalam telur. Perkembangan embrio meliputi pembentukan tulang belakang (somite). Sampai saat ini data tentang perkembangan somite pada ayam lokal terutama ayam Arab masih terbatas, sehingga diperlukan penelitian mengenai pengaruh umur telur terhadap perkembangan somite pada ayam lokal (ayam Arab). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui karakteristik telur tetas dan perkembangan tulang belakang (somite) embrio ayam Arab pada umur telur yang berbeda. Penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk memberikan informasi mengenai umur telur tetas yang sebaiknya digunakan dalam penetasan.

Judul: Perkembangan Embrio dan Daya Tetas serta Viabilitas Anak Ayam Arab dari Umur Induk yang Berbeda
Abstrak: Low quality and quantity of local chicken egg in Indonesia are mainly due to the poor breeding management. Hen age is one of considered factor of breeding and hatchery management. Until now the embryo development, hatchability, and chick viability of local chicken such as Arab chicken from different age is still questionable, although it has been proven on broilers. This research was conducted at Laboratory of Poultry Hatching, Departement of Animal Science Production and Technology, Animal Science Faculty, Bogor Agricultural University from May till June 2012. The Complete Randomized design with 135 fertile eggs from three different age of hens (36, 42, and 54 weeks) used in this study. Exterior quality of fertile eggs, embryo development, hacthability, and chick viability were observed in this study. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and then continued by Tuckey analysis. Data of shell cleanness, air egg shell quality, extraembrionic membrane development, hatchability, and viability were analyzed by descriptive method. The data showed that egg weigth, egg index, and embryo weight, beak length, head perimeter of 7th incubation time and embryo weight, neck length, and leg length of 14th incubation time were different (P<0.05). Incressing of hen age could effect the decressing embrio capability to absorb nutrition. The temperature of incubator also effected on metabolism rapidity of embrio. The optimum hen age of to produce good embryo development, hatchability, and viability of Arab Day Old Chick is 36 weeks.

Judul: Sintesis Krisin dari Floroglusinol
Abstrak: Flavone is a class of flavonoid, widely distributed in vascular plants. Flavones containing hydroxyl groups at 5 and 7 position are quite important regarding their biological activities and their abiquity in nature. Flavone having hydroxyl groups only at position 5 and 7 or 5,7-dihydroxyflavone is known as chrysin. In this study, crude chrysin had been successfully synthesized in 3 steps from phloroglucinol as starting material. Phloroglucinol was acetylated with acetonitrile and HCl gas, resulting phloroacetophenone amount to 74%. Phloroacetophenone benzoylation with 4.5 equivalents of benzoyl chloride produced tribenzoyl phloroacetophenone in 103–107% of yield and the subsequent Baker-Venkataraman rearrangement of the ester by using KOH in dried pyridine produced crude chrysin, with conversion percentage of 71.62%. All synthetic products had been characterized by melting point and spectroscopically.
