Judul: Development of Potentially Functional Drink from Skimmed Milk Enriched with Red or Black Variety Rice Bran
Abstrak: Rice bran is a good source of antioxidants such as polyphenol compounds that are potentially formulated in skimmed milk drink. The objectives of this research were to develop potentially functional drink from skimmed milk enriched with red or black variety rice bran and to evaluate their physical, chemical and sensory qualities. The milk drinks were formulated with skimmed milk (95%) and sucrose (5%) as fixed formula. Considering the result of preliminary research, the addition of red or black variety rice bran at amount of 4, 6, 8% (w/w) and carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) at amount of 0, 0.05, 0.1% (w/w) were based on fixed formula and water addition in ratio 4:1 (w/w) of water weight and total weight of skimmed milk powder, sucrose, rice bran, and CMC. The milk drink formula was selected based on total phenolic content (TPC), total anthocyanin content (TAC) and its antioxidant activities using DPPH and FRAP assay. Two selected formulas were characterized in terms of physical properties (viscosity and colour), chemical properties (pH, total soluble solid, and proximate), and sensory evaluation by rating hedonic. Red and black variety rice bran had high TPC with amount 512.19±43.91 and 1247.56±196.34 mg GAE/100 g, TAC with amount 1.94±0.19 and 40.69±4.21 mg C-3-G/100 g, respectively. Red and black variety rice bran also showed antioxidant activity based on DPPH assay (106.68±13.49 and 209.93±19.75 mmol Trolox/100 g, respectively) and FRAP assay (8.04±0.39 and 14.66±0.56 mmol FeSO4/100 g, respectively). The milk drink enriched with red variety rice bran, the highest content of TPC (33.83±1.00 mg GAE/100 mL), TAC (1.86±0.32 mg C-3-G/L), and antioxidant activities of DPPH (83.38±1.37 mmol Trolox/100 mL) and FRAP (0.43±0.01 mmol FeSO4/100 mL) by addition of 8% red variety rice bran and 0.05% CMC. The milk drink enriched with 8% black variety rice bran and 0.1% CMC showed the highest values in TPC (39.61±0.11 mg GAE/100 mL), DPPH (196.22±3.77 mmol Trolox/100 mL), FRAP (0.63±0.07 mmol FeSO4/ 100 mL) and TAC (5.53±0.03 mg C-3-G/L). Furthermore, the proximate analysis showed that the selected drinks had low fat content and high fiber content. Both milk drinks also were moderately liked on overall liking attribute. Based on its TPC, TAC and antioxidant activities, these milk drinks enriched with black and red variety rice bran are potentially developed as functional drinks.

Judul: Development Of Black Rice Milk From Hom Nil Rice (Oryza Sativa L.).
Abstrak: Rice milk is made as an alternative milk for people with limitation of milk consumption such milk allergy or lactose intolerance. Black rice which is high in antioxidant is potential to be used in rice milk production. The objectives of this research were to develop black rice milk from Hom Nil rice by formula optimization, to characterize the profile of final product, and to study the effect of storage of final product. Black rice milk components are 70-82% of plain black rice milk, 5-7% of sugar, 12.5-24.5% of water. Black rice milk was formulated using Mixture design by Design Expert® 7 software. Black rice milk formula was choosed by random combination of components based on restriction resulted in 14 formulas and inputted as historical data. Other components are 0.4% of carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) and 0.1% of salt. The response are total phenolic content, total anthocyanin content, antioxidant activity, and sensory (overall liking score). The optimum formula is indicated by maximum value on responses. The best formula consisted of 80.6% plain black rice milk, 6.4% sugar, 12.5% water, which contained 91% of water, 0.17% of ash, 0.04% of protein, 0.08% of crude fat, and 8.3% of carbohydrate. Furthermore, study the effect of storage showed that TPC, TAC, antioxidant activity, viscosity, and pH decreased, whereas microbiological quality and total soluble solid increased in 16 days at storage temperature 4ºC.

Judul: Teknik penentuan posisi bintang berdasarkan pelat foto overlapping
Abstrak: Bintang adalah salah satu objek langit yang menarik untuk diamati. Untuk itu, pengetahuan tentang posisi bintang sangat diperlukan. Posisi bintang di langit dapat dihitung melalui foto bintang. Fotografi astronomi atau astrometri merupakan ilmu yang mempelajari metode untuk menentukan posisi bendabenda langit seperti bintang berdasarkan pelat foto (Kamp, 1967). Sebuah pelat foto berisi citra bintang-bintang yang sudah diketahui posisinya berdasarkan katalog dan citra bintang-bintang yang belum diketahui posisinya. Posisi bintang yang ada di katalog dinyatakan dengan (a,3). Bintang yang belum diketahui posisinya lebih banyak jumlahnya daripada bintang yang sudah diketahui posisinya. Citra bintang pada pelat foto berupa sebuah titik dalam bentuk tetap. Posisinya pada pelat merupakan hasil pengukuran pada bidang kartesius dan dinyatakan dengan (1;,fl). Hasil pengukuran tersebut kemudian direduksi menjadi koordinat terukur (x,y). Hubungan antara (a,3) dan (x,y) didekati dengan sebuah deret dengan konstanta-konsranta deret merupakan konstanta pelat. Nilai konstanta pelat diperoleh dengan menggabungkan hasil pengukuran posisi bintang pada masing-masing pelat menjadi sebuah persamaan normal (Jefferys, 1963). Hasil akhir dari gugus persamaan normal tersebut dijabarkan dalam bentuk nOlasi matriks partisi dan berupa sebuah sistem persamaan linier Ax = b di mana A adalah matriks jarang, dan x merupakan konstanta pelar yang akan dicari nilainya. Untuk menyelesaikan sistem persamaan linier terse but digunakan metode transformasi given. Konstanta pelat yang sudah diperoleh dengan menyelesaikan sistem persamaan linier di atas, kemudian disubtitusi ke sebuah persamaan untuk memperoleh posisi bintang yang tidak tercantum dalam katalog. .
