Judul: Aplikasi kalsium untuk mengendalikan cemaran getah kuning pada buah manggis (Garcinia mangostana) di Bogor dan Purworejo)
Abstrak: Gamboge disorder is a main problem in mangosteen production. Result of previous researches showed that calcium fertilization could control gamboge disorder. This experiment was conducted to get lower effective dosage of calcium in two locations i.e., Bogor and Purworejo. The experiment was held from October 2013 to March 2014 in Leuwiliang-Bogor and Kaligesing-Purworejo. Observation of physical and chemical quality was conducted in Postharvest Laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture. The design of this expermient is Randomized Completely Block Design with one factor. The factor is calcium dosage: 0 kg Ca2+/tree, 1.5 kg Ca2+/tree, 3 kg Ca2+/tree. The result showed that application of calcium decreased the gamboge disorder in two locations. The effective dosage which could decrease the gamboge disorder in Bogor and Purworejo is 1.5 kg Ca2+/tree. The result also showed that application of calcium didn’t affect total soluble solid and total titrated acid.

Judul: Pengaruh Aplikasi Kalsium dan Biopori terhadap Cemaran Getah Kuning dan Kualitas Buah Manggis (Garcinia mangostana)
Abstrak: Gamboge disorder is the major problem limiting marketable yield of mangosteen fruit. Soil calcium (Ca) application has been known to control the gamboge disorder, but the absorption of calcium occasionally becomes ineffective. The objectives of this research are to find the effect of calcium and biopore application to reduce gamboge disorder and increasing quality of fruit. This research was conducted from November 2010 to April 2011 in mangosteen farm at Karacak, Leuwiliang, Bogor and Postharvest Laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture IPB. The treatment design is based on Randomized Completely Block Design with two factors. The first factor was concentration of calcium and the second factor was biopore application. There were five concentrations of calcium; 0 kg Ca2+/tree/year; 5.33 kg dolomit/tree/year; 3.55 kg kalsit/tree/year; 10.67 kg dolomit/tree/year; 7.11 kg kalsit/tree/year and there were two treatments of biopore; without biopore application and with biopore application. The result showed that calcium factors were significant to reduce gamboge disorder, but the bi opore factors didn’t give significant effect to reduce gamboge disorder. Interaction between 7.11kg kalsit/tree/year with biopore technology were effectif to reduce gamboge disorder in mangosteen peel. In aril, interaction between 5.33 kg dolomit/tree/year with and without biopore technology, were give significant effect to reduce gamboge disorder in aril.

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.
