Judul: Study on Policy Implementation in Technical Implementing Units Agricultural Quarantine in Preventing the Spread of Rabies
Abstrak: The existence of guidelines or technical instructions in the prevention of the spread of rabies apparently dose not have an impact on reducing the spread and the number of rabies cases yet. This indicates there is a implementation gap between the implementation of the guidelines. This study aim to analyze the implementation of technical guidelines and requirements of quarantine measures against the introduction of traffic-borne animal rabies that is decision letter Head of the Agricultural Quarantine No.344.b/kpts/PD.670.370/L/12/06 in order to prevent the spread of rabies. In addition, this study also revealed the quality of preconditions and analyze the relationship of the preconditions to the implementation guidelines for preventing the spread of rabies. Analysis model used was adopted from the theory of Edward III by considering factors that influence the implementation of the communication, resources, disposition and bureaucratic structure (preconditions) using the survey method. The study found that the quality of the preconditions and implementation guidelines for the prevention of the spread of rabies is generally classified as moderate. There is a significant relationship between aspects of communication and the overall precondition to the implementation guidelines for the prevention of the spread of rabies (p<0.05) with strong and medium correlation level (r=0.644 and r=0.457).

Judul: Pengetahuan, Sikap, dan Perilaku Mahasiswa Fakultas Ekologi Manusia Institut Pertanian Bogor terhadap Rabies.
Abstrak: Rabies is one of the zoonoses that is still a problem around the world, especially in Indonesia. It is an acute infectious disease of the central nervous system caused by the genus Lyssavirus and is transmitted through animal bites, mainly dogs. This research was aimed to determine the level of knowledge, attitude, and practice; determine the relationship among characteristic, knowledge, attitude, and practice of students of the Faculty of Human Ecology, Institut Pertanian Bogor (FEMA IPB) on rabies; and identify factors which influence the respondents practice of rabies. This research was designed by cross-sectional study. The sample size was determined using level of confidence of 95%, expected prevalence of 50%, and accepted error of 5%, so the sample size was obtained as 250 samples. The data were taken by interview of respondents using structured questionnaire. The results showed that the general level of knowledge of students of FEMA IPB on rabies was in the category of moderate to good, but half of the attitudes of the respondents were in the poor category. The majority of respondents had practice towards rabies in good category. This research obtained significant relationship between age and practice (p=0.003; r=-0.629) and between knowledge and practice (p=0.000; r=0.499). Factors which influenced the respondents practice of rabies were age and knowledge.

Judul: Perbandingan komposisi komponen atsiri kulit kayu Cryptocarya massoy (Oken) Kosterm. dengan Cinnamomum grandiflorum Kosterm.
Abstrak: Pada penelitian ini untu menghasilkan minyak atsiri dari kulit kayu C. massoy dan C. grandiflorum metode ekstraksi dengan pelarut lebih baik dibandingkan metode destilasi air. Pelarut yang terbaik adalah heksana karena menghasilkan minyak atsiri yang jernih, pelarutnya dapat dihilangkan seluruhnya dari minyak atsiriya dapat langsung dianalisis dengan kromatografi gas. Rendemen minyak atsiri C. mussoy 1.5 % dan C grandiflorum 2.4 %. Minyak kedua spesies itu berbeda sifat fisiknya. Minyak atsiri C. mussoy berwarna kuning sedangkan dan C. grandiflorum berwarna hijau. Selain itu rapatan minyak atsiri C. massor lebih besar yaitu 0,9823 g/cm³ dibanding C grandiflorum sebesar 0,9727 g/cm³. Indeks bias dan rotasi optik spesifik minyak atsiri C. massoy adalah 1,4921 dan -97,2° sedangkan untuk C grandiflorum 1.4741 dan -78°. Hasil kromatogram menunjukkan perbedaan puncak-puncak komponen minyak atsiri kedua spesies. Perbedaan yang nyata adalah pada puncak pada menit ke-3 dimiliki oleh CM tetapi tidak oleh CG. Puncak pada menit ke-32, dan ke-53 CG dengan luas yang cukup besar tetapi CG hampir tidak memilikinya. Hasil rektifikasi membuktikan bahwa puncak-puncak pada menit ke-4, ke-5, ke-11, ke-15 adalah tergolong asam karboksilat atau turunannya. Ini berarti massoilakton sebagai komponen terbesar (68%) muncul di kromatogram pada menit ke-5 karena puncak tersebut memiliki area terluas.
