Judul: Kompetisi Bakteri Asam Laktat Dan Staphylococcus aureus Dalam Penempelan Dan Pembentukan Biofilm Pada Permukaan Stainless Steel
Abstrak: Biofilm merupakan sekelompok mikroorganisme yang terimobilisasi pada permukaan padat oleh senyawa ekstraseluler yang diproduksi oleh mikroorganisme tersebut. Secara umum pembentukan bio:film oleh bakteri patogen bersifat merugikan karena dapat menjadi sumber kontaminasi. Meskipun demikian penempelan bakteri asam laktat pada dinding usus merupakan suatu hal yang menguntungkan karena dapat meningkatkan keseimbangan mikroflora di dalam usus.

Judul: Penempelan Dan Pembentukan Biofilm Bakteri Asam Laktat Pada Permukaan Stainless Steel Dan Pengujian Sifat Hidrofobisitasnya
Abstrak: Di a1am, bakteri eenderung menempel pad a permukaaan padat dan apabila kondisi lingkungan memungkinkan, bakteri tersebut dapat tumbuh dan berkembang biak serta membentuk biofilm. Salah satu faktor penting yang dapat mempengaruhi penempelan dan pembentukan biofilm adalah sifat hidrofobisitas dari bakteri. Penelitian mengenai pengaruh hidrofobisitas bakteri terhadap penempelan dan pembentukan biofilm telah banyak dilakukan. Tetapi hasil yang diperoleh berbeda-beda. Beberapa penelitian melaporkan bahwa hidrofobisitas permukaan bakteri dapat meningkatkan penempelan bakteri pada permukaan. Beberapa penelitian lainnya melaporkan tidak ada korelasi antara hidrofobisitas dengan penempelan bakteri.

Judul: Characteristic of Overshooting Top (OT) Based on  Himawari  8  Satellite  as  a  Convective  Cloud  Feature  that  Generates  Extreme Weather in the Java Island Region
Abstrak: Overshooting Top (OT) is a feature at the top of a convective cloud that is associated with extreme weather. Research on OT in tropical Indonesia is still very limited. The existence of geostationary satellites with wide area coverage and fast frequency observations is useful for observing the fast dynamics of the OT life cycle. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the relationship between OT and extreme weather, updraft and thermodynamic conditions of OT when extreme weather occurs, the best objective method for detecting OT in the day time and night time, and the spatiotemporal distribution of OT in the tropical region of Java Island during the 2018-2021 period. Based on visual analysis using visible channel and Himawari 8 sandwich products, 87% of extreme weather events in Java were accompanied by the appearance of OT. It indicates that the presence of the OT pattern is a convection cloud pattern or feature that is closely related to extreme weather events for the Java Island region. The existence of a time lag between the appearance of OT and extreme weather events on Java Island indicates that the OT of convection cloud can be used as a precursor or nowcasting for the appearance of extreme weather. Most of the convective cloud OT features during extreme weather events on Java Island have altitude that were only able to exceed the altitude of the equilibrium level and few were able to exceed the tropopause level of 9 km – 16 km. The difference in atmospheric conditions during extreme weather events on Java Island, which is in the tropics and subtropics, is a strong and unstable convective energy condition characterized by a larger CAPE, as well as unstable KI, LI, SI and TTI values. It is offset by kinematic factors in the form of a weak vertical wind shear (bulk wind shear 0-6 km) and a higher freezing point height. The difference between extreme weather events in the Java Island region and other tropical regions compared to subtropical regions is the strong updraft speed of convection clouds. The IRW Texture COMB algorithm based on the IRW-Texture Gradient modification and the COMB algorithm shows a significant increase in quality for detecting OT and non-OT pixels in Java. Rainy days with rainfall > 50 mm/day are very common in areas with an altitude of > 500 m. On the other hand, the level of convection activity which is indicated by the presence of OT and lightning is significantly reduced in this area. OT of convective clouds appear more frequently during the DJF season and less frequently during the JJA season. OT often appears during the day time and rarely at night time. Most OTs appear in the central part, away from the south and north coasts of Java Island during the day, while OTs that appear near the south and north coasts of Java Island can appear in the morning or afternoon.
