Judul: Kultur In Vitro Sel-sel Fibroblas Fetus Tikus
Abstrak: Research has been conducted on the in vitro culture of rat fetal fibroblast using Dulbeccos’ Modified Eagle Medium supplemented with 3mM sodium bicarbonate, 10% fetal calf serum and 50 μg/ml gentamycin (mDMEM) in CO2 incubator at 37oC. Evaluation was done on the proliferation rate and the protein production after several passages. The growth of the fibroblast was confirmed by their morphology. The proliferation rate was done based on the population doubling time (PDT) by counting the number of cells in each passage by using Improved Neubauer hemocytometer. Identification of proteins was done quatitatively using Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Based on morphological observation the cell grown in in vitro culture were the fibrocyte and fibroblast and showed increasing of homogenicity after several passages. Based on the PDT, the proliferation rate was increased by each passages. Fibroblast also secrete proteins remain until passage 9 based on the results of electrophoresis. It can be concluded that the growth and protein secretion of rat fetal fibroblast in in vitro culture can be maintained up to 9 passages.

Judul: ultur In Vitro Sel-sel Otak Besar (Cerebrum) Anak Tikus
Abstrak: Research has been conducted on in vitro culture of three days old rat cerebrum cells in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and 50 μg/ml gentamycin, and supplemented with and without 5 μg/ml insulin, 10 μg/ml transferin, 5 μg/ml selenium (ITS). Culture was done in 5% CO2 incubator at 37oC for 11 days. Identification was done on types of cell based on morphological observation, growth capacity (cell proliferation, population doubling time/ PDT and length of axon and dendrit) based on calculation of the number of cells using hemocytometer and micrometer, and the protein produced by the cerebrum cells in the culture medium using sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) method. Quantitative data were analyzed using statistical T-test on Minitab program. The results showed that based on the morphological observations, there are two types of cells including nerve cells of bipolar and multipolar neurons and glial cells including the fibrous astrocyte, protoplasmic astrocyte, oligodendrocyte, and microglia. Supplementation of ITS into the culture medium could increase the cells proliferation rate (P<0.05) with lower PDT, axon and dendrit lenght growth and quantitatively the 21.5–36.5 kDa protein production as indicated by the intensity of the protein band.

Judul: Karakteristik curah hujan DKI Jakarta dengan metode Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF)
Abstrak: Curah hujan di Indonesia dipengaruhi oleh monsun yang digerakan oleh adanya sel tekanan tinggi dan sel tekanan rendah di benua Asia dan Australia secara bergantian. Dalam bulan Desember hingga Februari (DJF) dibelahan bumi utara terjadi musim dingin akibatnya terdapat sel tekanan tinggi di Benua Asia, sedangkan dibelahan bumi selatan pada waktu ini terjadi musim panas, akibatnya sel tekanan rendah di benua Australia. Karena ada perbedaan tekanan udara di kedua benua tersebut maka pada periode DJF bertiup angin dari tekanan tinggi di Asia menuju ke tekanan rendah di Australia, angin ini disebut monsun barat (winter monsoon). Dalam bulan Juni hingga Agustus (JJA) terdapat sel tekanan rendah di Asia dan sel tekanan tinggi di Australia yang menggerakan monsun timur (suntnter monsoon).
