Judul: Utilization of PT. Krakatau Tirta Industri water treatment plant sludge as compost raw materials
Abstrak: The process of making capsule package produces waste in form of mud which has to be disposed periodically. The mud contains such elements as Ca, N and P that are useful for plants. This study was aimed to utilize the mud as a mixture of compost media for caisin plant (Brassica rapa L). The research used a completely randomized design with Advanced Duncan Test at a level of a = 5%. The waste (L) doses used were 0 g, 250 g, 500 g and 750 g, and the compost (L) doses were 0 g, 250 g, and 500 g. The addition of compost in this research could improve the physical properties of soil, making it not too tough to be able to bind water and nutrients. The research result showed that the mud had a significant effect on vegetative growth such as the height of plants, the width of leaves, and the number of leaves. Treatments K3L2 (K 500 g + L 250 g), K2L4 (K 250 g + L 750 g), and K2L3 (K 250 g + L 500 g) indicated very good results, while treatment K1L1 (without the addition of compost and waste) showed unsatisfactory results, with each treatment having a value of 22.65 cm, 7.86 cm and 7.67 leaves.

Abstrak: Utilization of sludge processing results are very minimal and less noticed by many among the industry. This research aims to identify the feasibility of compost of sludge processing drinking water as a medium for planting, identifying the presence of heavy metals content in the compost that is absorbed in plants, and degrades the contents of heavy metals in sludge by means of fitoremediasi. The method used is the utilization of compost as a medium for planting without WTP mixed soil. On testing using three kinds of different compost WTP. Compost 1 comes from WTP PT. Krakatau Tirta Industry, Cilegon, West Java. Compost 2 comes from WTP PDAM Tirta Pakuan Bogor, West Java. Compost 3 comes from WTP PDAM Tirta Kahuripan Cibinong, West Java. On the third having a lush growth of vegetation and experience the process of degradation the heavy metals. The results of the three trials heavy metal content in plants after harvest showed values above the threshold limit of SNI 7387 in 2009 about The Limit of Heavy Metal Contamination in Food. Composting plant using WTP is not safe for consumption. Degradation of heavy metals in the form of mud at the WTP to harvest heavy metals impaired. This demonstrates the feasibility of the utilization of WTP sludge by composting and application of the growing media. Compost WTP can fertilize the plants, but not for food crops.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
