Judul: Analisis Model Difusi untuk Proses Perubahan Penduduk di Indonesia
Abstrak: Proses perubahan penduduk merupakan suatu fenomena di bidang demografi yang dapat dimodelkan dengan proses stokastik, yaitu dengan model difusi. Karakteristik model dengan proses difusi ini dicirikan adanya komponen deterministik (tolend) dan komponen stokastik (noise) dari suatu persamaan diferensial stokastik. Pada komponen stokastik yang merupakan peubah acak adalah proses Wiener. Nilai harapan dan ragamnya berturut-turut sebagai drift rate dan angka koefisien dari difusi.

Judul: Analysis of stable and quasi-stable population growth models
Abstrak: Model pertumbuhan penduduk merupakan hal yang penting dalam mengantisipasi persoalan ekonomi, social, dan politik dalam suatu bangsa yang diakibatkan oleh perubahan jumlah penduduk. Perubahan jumlah penduduk dapat dipengaruhi oleh faktor fertilitas, mortalitas , dan migrasi. Karya ilmiah ini bertujuan untuk memodelkan pertumbuhan penduduk stabil dan kuasi-stabil lalu mengaplikasikannya dalam penduduk Indonesia tahun 2000, 2005 dan 2010. Hasil proyeksi akan dibandingkan dengan data sensus lalu akan diperoleh nilai galatnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model kuasi-stabil dengan adanya faktor perbaikan kematian lebih baik daripada model stabil. Berdasarkan model kuasi-stabil hasil proyeksi penduduk Indonesia tahun 2015 sebesar 255,236,560. Keywords : pertumbuhan penduduk, kuasi-stabil, fertilitas, mortalitas., Model of population growth is essential to anticipate problems in the economic, social and political in a nation that affected by the change of population. Changes in a population can be affected by factors of fertility, mortality, and migration. This paper aims to model stable and quasi-stable population growth and then applies these models to population of Indonesia for 2000, 2005 and 2010. The projection results is compared to the census data and then error value will be obtained. The results showed that the quasi-stable model with mortality improvement factor is better than the stable model. Based on the quasistable model, prediction of population of Indonesia in 2015 is 255,236,560. Keywords: population growth, quasi-stable, fertility, mortality

Judul: Peptides Hydrolysate Derived from Collagen of Snakehead Murrel (Channa striata) Skin Demonstrate Anti-oxidant and Anti-cholesterol Activities.
Abstrak: Anti-cholesterol and anti-oxidant play crucial role to combat cardiovascular disease (CVD) related to formation of arterial plagues from oxidation of cholesterol. In the past decades, research on bioactive peptides demonstrating anti-cholesterol and anti-oxidant activities have been reported as the alternative drugs. In this study, acid soluble collagen was extracted from the skin of snakehead murrel and employed to induce production of collagenase by Bacillus licheniformis F11.4. The collagenases secreted were in turn purified through AKTA Purifier (ion exchange, DEAE column) and used to produce peptides hydrolysate. The purified enzymes were grouped in two distinct collagenase fractions, designated as fraction D and F. Peptides hydrolysate produced by the fraction D was found to demonstrate HMG-CoA inhibitor activity comparable to pravastatin and limited anti-oxidant activity. Meanwhile, peptides hydrolysate generated using the fraction F demonstrated anti-oxidant activity comparable to BHT (2mM), vitamin C (2mM) and vitamin E (2mM), but limited HMG-CoA activity. Combination of the fraction D and F resulted in substantial HMG-CoA inhibition and anti-oxidant activities.
