Judul: Pengaruh Motivasi Bekerja Perempuan  Di Sektor Informal Terhadap Pembagian Kerja Dan Pengambilan Keputusan Dalam Keluarga
Abstrak: This study investigates the relation between work motivation of women in infor-mal sector with the division of labor and decision making process within family. The respondents of this research are 30 woman vegetable sellers and their family living in temporary migrants boarding houses in Bekasi. This study revealed that the majority of woman vegetable sellers are working for economic purposes. The women work motivation does not influence the division of labor in the family par-ticularly in domestic works. Women, whether working for money or not, main task in the family is taking care of all domestic works. The division of labor in the family is not influence the decision making process in the family. Women are still entitled to make decision on domestic activities, while men are responsible to de-cide on non domestic activities.

Judul: Proses migrasi wanita pekerja di sektor informal dan pengaruhnya terhadap fungsi keluarga
Abstrak: Revolusi hijau menyebabkan terjadinya mekanisasi pertanian dan tenaga manusia tergeser oleh mesin-mesin pertanian. Setelah adanya sarana informasi dan transportasi maka para wanita desa juga ikut merantau ke kota dan terjun pada persaingan dunia kerja. Kemampuan para migran yang terbatas menyebabkan mereka tersingkir dari pekerjaan pada sektor formal yang akhirnya mengharuskan mereka untuk masuk pada pekerjaan sektor informal. Jika wanita bekerja di luar rumah atau merantau ke luar daerah maka akan membawa dampak bagi berjalannya fungsi keluarga. Penelitian ini untuk mengkaji alasan atau motivasi yang mendorong wanita desa bermigrasi ke kota, karakteristik (usia, tingkat pendidikan, status perkawinan dan tingkat pendapatan) pada wanita desa yang melakukan migrasi, pola migrasi yang digunakan migran wanita dari desa, dan dampak yang ditimbulkan dari adanya migrasi wanita pada fungsi keluarga Penelitian ini mengambil lokasi Kelurahan Tegallega, Kecamatan Bogor Tengah, Kotamadya Bogor, khususnya di RT 02 RW 01. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Mei-Juni 2003. Kuesioner diberikan kepada 30 responden terpilih yang memenuhi kriteria dalam penelitian ini yaitu migran wanita pekerja di sektor informal yang sudah berkeluarga. Informan yang terkait dengan topik penelitian dipilih melalui teknik "bola salju" (snowballing). Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini merupakan data primer dan data sekunder.

Judul: Synthesis of Apatite - Chitosan Composite Using Duck Eggshell and Chitosan with Temperature and pH Control
Abstrak: Composite of apatite-chitosan was prepared by using chitosan as polymer matrix. Calcium phosphate was prepared from CaO and (NH4)2HPO4, which the ratio Ca : P had to be 1.67. Chitosan is produced by deacetilase from biopolymer chitin. Duck eggshell (95% CaCO3) as starting material was converted to be calcium oxide (CaO) through calcinations with temperature 1000oC for 5 hours. In-situ and ex-situ methods were prepared from apatite and chitosan (dissolved with acetate acid 2%). Calcium phosphate prepared for bone implantation, but it is too fragile and brittle to be implant into the body. So addition of chitosan can decrease crystalinity and increase mechanic characteristic (tougher). Composite apatite-chitosan was resulted by fast precipitation. Fast precipitation was held in a breaker glass with nitrogen atmosphere, under controlled temperature at 37oC and pH 7, in order to increase amount of hydroxyapatite. Precipitation with CaO which was dropped by (NH4)2HPO4. Hydroxyapatite and chitosan were appearing at samples with in-situ and ex-situ methods which indicating by peak matching of XRD (closed lattice parameter, crystal size), overlapping at FTIR spectra and supporting by SEM picture (homogenous and agglomerated particle). However, it still needs further research to examine biocompatibility osteoconductive degree of sample by in-vivo and in-vitro test.
