Judul: Respon produktivitas dan reproduktivitas ayam kampung dengan umur induk ynag berbeda
Abstrak: This was conducted to investigate the effect of hen age on productivity and reproductivity of domestic hen (Gallus gallus domesticus). The amount of hens used were 85 young hens (approximately 6 month old), 32 mid-age hens (approximately 12 month old) and 57 old hens (approximately 18 month old).

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: Pembuatan Film Tipis Cu2ZnSnS4 sebagai Lapisan Penyerap Cahaya pada Sel Surya Menggunakan Metode Elektrodeposisi
Abstrak: Thin film of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is an alternative semiconductor used as light absorber layer on solar cell. CZTS can replace silicon that commonly used as commercial semiconductor. The advantage of using CZTS as absorber layer is due to the abundance of its chemical composer on earth, and its high value of absorption coefficient. The absorber layer was made by using electrodeposition method on ITO glass substrates. The films were deposited at room temperature using potentiostatic mode with a potential of –1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes. After that, the films were annealed at two different temperatures, 180 ºC and 500 °C, for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. Based on X-ray diffraction analysis, the polycrystalline thin film obtained fall into kesterite crystal phase. This type of crystal was obtained when the CZTS was annealed at 500 °C in H2S/N2 atmosphere. The value of optical band gap energy for the CZTS thin film was 2.2 eV with the film thickness about 1.228–6.366 μm. The sample of CZTS with electrodeposition time of 45 minutes and annealing temperature of 500 °C showed the best result and in conformity with absorber layers criteria for solar cells.
