Judul: Synthesis and Characterization of Fluorapatite with Variations in Sintering Temperature Based on Rice Snail Shells Using the Precipitation Method
Abstrak: Kerusakan pada gigi merupakan salah satu contoh kurangnya unsur kalsium pada tubuh kita, karena kalsium berperan dalam perkembangan tulang dan gigi. Cangkang keong sawah dapat digunakan sebagai prekursor untuk pembentukan fluorapatit (FAp). Penelitian ini bertujuan menyintesis dan mengkarakterisasi FAp dari cangkang keong sawah dengan metode presipitasi serta mengetahui pengaruh variasi suhu sintering. Metode penelitian ini dilakukan melalui tahapan preparasi cangkang keong sawah, Sintesis FAp dengan variasi suhu sintering (600 °C, 800 °C, dan 1000 °C) dengan metode presipitasi. Hasil sintesis FAp dikarakterisasi dengan X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) serta Scanning Electron Microscope Energy Dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDX). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa fluorapatit yang disintering dengan suhu 1000 °C memiliki nilai kristalinitas yang paling tinggi berdasarkan hasil XRD. Spektrum FTIR dari FAp suhu 1000 °C diidentifikasi memiliki gugus -OH, OH-F, dan -PO43-. Hasil analisis SEM-EDX menunjukkan fluorapatit dengan suhu 1000 °C memiliki bentuk seperti batang dan jarum serta memiliki rasio molaritas Ca/P sebesar 13,18 dan P/F sebesar 4,29., Synthesis and Characterization of Fluorapatite with Variations in Sintering Temperature Based on Rice Snail Shells Using the Precipitation Method. Supervised by IRMA HERAWATI SUPARTO and CHARLENA Tooth decay is an example of a lack of calcium in our bodies, because calcium plays a role in the development of bones and teeth. Rice snail shells can be used as a precursor for forming fluorapatite (FAp). This study aims to synthesize and characterize FAp from rice field snail shells using the precipitation method and to determine the effect of variations in sintering temperature. This research method was carried out through the stages of preparation of rice snail shells, FAp synthesis with various sintering temperatures (600 °C, 800 °C, and 1000 °C) with the precipitation method. The results of the FAp synthesis were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscope Energy Dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDX). The results showed that fluorapatite sintered at 1000 °C had the highest crystallinity value based on XRD results. The FTIR spectrum of FAp at 1000 °C was identified as having -OH, OH-F, and -PO43- groups. The results of SEM-EDX analysis showed that fluorapatite at a temperature of 1000 °C had a shape like rods and needles and had a Ca/P molarity ratio of 13.18 and P/F of 4.29.

Judul: Synthesis and Characterization of Fluorapatite with pH Variations Based on Rice Fields Snail Shells Using the Precipitation Method
Abstrak: Kerusakan pada gigi biasanya membutuhkan pengganti berupa gigi buatan, yaitu implan gigi. Salah satu bahan utama pembuatan implan gigi adalah fluorapatit (FAp) yang dapat berasal dari limbah cangkang keong sawah sebagai prekursor berupa kalsium hidroksida pada sintesis FAp. Penelitian ini bertujuan menyintesis dan mengkarakterisasi FAp berbasis cangkang keong sawah dengan metode presipitasi menggunakan variasi pH. Metode penelitian ini dilakukan melalui tiga tahap, yaitu preparasi sampel cangkang keong sawah, sintesis FAp dengan tiga variasi pH berbeda (5, 7, dan 9) menggunakan metode presipitasi dan karakterisasi FAp dengan X-ray diffraction (XRD). Hasil karakterisasi terbaik dilanjutkan dengan fourier transform infrared (FTIR) dan scanning electron miroscope energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari tiga variasi pH, maka FAp dengan pH 9 memiliki hasil yang terbaik berdasarkan hasil XRD (kristalinitas, ukuran kristal, fase kristal) dan rendemen. FAp pH 9 terbukti memiliki gugus fungsi -OH, OH-F, dan -PO43- yang sesuai dengan analisis FTIR. FAp dengan pH 9 juga terbukti memiliki morfologi permukaan yang seperti gumpalan dan rasio molaritas Ca/P sebesar 3,59 dan P/F sebesar 5,83 dengan analisis SEM-EDX., Damage to the teeth usually requires replacement in the form of artificial teeth, namely dental implants. One of the main ingredients for making dental implants is fluorapatite (FAp) which can be derived from rice snail shell waste as a precursor in the form of calcium hydroxide in FAp synthesis. This study aims to synthesize and characterize FAp based on rice field snail shells with the precipitation method using variations in pH. This research method was carried out in three stages, namely preparation of rice snail shell samples, synthesis of FAp with three different pH variations (5, 7, and 9) using the precipitation method, and FAp characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The best characterization results were followed by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX). The results showed that of the three variations of pH, FAp with pH 9 had the best results based on XRD results (crystallinity, crystal size, crystal phase) and yield. FAp pH 9 proved to have functional groups -OH, OH-F, and -PO43- which was by FTIR analysis. FAp with pH 9 was also shown to have a lump-like surface morphology and a Ca/P molarity ratio of 3,59 and P/F of 5,83 by SEM-EDX analysis.

Judul: Pengembangan distribusi ILOS multimedia (ILOSmedia)
Abstrak: The development of open source softwares is still going rapidly nowadays, including open source operating systems for desktop computer, netbook, tablet PC, and smartphone. The open source operating systems have considerable contribution to open source software. Linux is an open source operating system that continues to grow since 1991. The characteristics in general Linux are free, can be distributed freely, and free to make changes in it. Linux in its development is divided into several distributions. Each distribution is made as a specific goal so that the operating system can focus on running the desired functions, such as multimedia, networking, education, etc. The objective of of this research is to develop and evaluate the ILOS distribution for multimedia by providing multimedia of open source packages. ILOSmedia uses Ubuntu10.10 and Remastersys as a tool to remaster. ILOSmedia is developed by installing multimedia packages that have been obtained based on the results of questionnaires from 30 respondents from three communities, which are KPLI Bogor, Linux.com forums, and Kaskus.us forums. ILOSmedia also uses the Realtime kernel as kernal Mutimedia. ILOSmedia testing is performed by 11 students of Computer Science who are members of FOKERZ community. The testing process is performed by executing ILOSmedia via live-cd and filled in a questionnaire. The test result shows that ILOSmedia has hardware compatibility on notebook and PC with good performance. As much as 72.727% of respondents believe that the size of the installer ILOSmedia of 1.34 GB and a minimum 10GB hard drive is normal. ILOSmedia has multimedia packages complete with the percentage completeness according to respondents is 45.455% are very complete and 54.545% are complete. Boot speed ILOSmedia have an average of 28.87 seconds and 90.91% of respondents consider that ILOSmedia have a desktop environment that is easy navigation
