Judul: Gambaran Histopatologi Otak dan Paru-Paru Mencit Setelah Infeksi Toxoplasma gondii dan Pemberian Ekstrak Etanol Jahe Merah
Abstrak: Zingiber officinale rubrum (Red Ginger) in Indonesia is used as an herbal medicinal plant to treat various diseases, one of which is anti-microbial. Toxoplasmosis is an intracellular obligate parasite that infects many pregnant women, causing miscarriage. Treatment using antibiotics can cause resistance so red ginger is used as a candidate for Spiramycin replacement. The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of red ginger as an antibiotic to treat toxoplasmosis. Research using 12 mice was divided into 4 treatments into KN (Mice not infected and not treated), SP (Mice infected with T. gondii and given Spiramycin), EJ (Mice infected with T. gondii and given red ginger extract), and KP ( Infected and untreated mice. Mice were infected with Txoplasma at a dose of 1��104 /head intraperitoneally. On the 6th day mice were necropped and histopathic preparations were made with HE staining. The results showed that red ginger extract had an effect as an anti-Toxoplasma gondii, as evidenced by a decrease in the percentage of takhizoit, lymphocytes and macrophages in the brain organs of 89%, 18% and 15% respectively and the percentage decrease in takhizoite, lymphocytes and macrophages in skeletal muscles of 53%, 15% and 21% respectively.

Judul: Histopatologi Hati dan Limpa Mencit yang Diinfeksi Toxoplasma gondii dan Diberikan Ekstrak Jahe Merah (Zingiber officinale rubrum).
Abstrak: Zingiber officinale rubrum yang dikenal dengan nama jahe merah adalah tanaman obat yang banyak digunakan dalam mengobati berbagai penyakit, termasuk diabetes. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah melihat perbandingan efektivitas ekstrak jahe merah dengan spiramycin yang merupakan antibiotik yang umum digunakan dalam mengobati toksoplasmosis. Ekstrak jahe merah diberikan dua kali sehari. Organ hati dan limpa dievaluasi menggunakan metode histopatologi dengan pewarnaan Hematoxylin Eosin (HE). Pengamatan histopatologi organ hati dan limpa mencit menujukkan adanya efek anti Toxoplasma gondii dalam ekstrak jahe merah ditandai dengan penurunan jumlah takizoit, sel radang, fokus nekrotik pada hati dan megakariosit pada limpa. Ekstrak jahe merah efektivitasnya masih lebih rendah apabila dibandingkan dengan spiramycin.

Judul: Construction of Strongly Optimal Binary Linear Code with Minimum Distance 9 and 11
Abstrak: A binary linear code of length n over q F is a subspace of n q F . A code has three parameters that attached to it, namely length, dimension, and minimum distance. A code with length n, dimension k and minimum distance d is often called [n, k, d ]-code. Usually, when two parameters are given, then we want to find a code that has the best value for the last parameter. Based on Gilbert- Varshamov bound, if a [n, k, d ]-code exists and can not be expanded, we call it a strongly optimal code. In this paper, we construct strongly optimal code with minimum distance 9 and 11. In constructing the code, we created a theorem and algorithm based on Gilbert-Varshamov bound before we implement the algorithm to MAPLE programming language. Because of computational limitations, the program can only construct up to k = 10 for d = 9 and k = 12 for d = 11.
