Judul: Perbandingan Distribusi Otot Kambing Kacang dan Peranakan Etawah pada Bobot Lepas
Abstrak: A total of 43 goats which consist of 27 kacang goats and 16 peranakan etawah goatswas used to evaluate the comparison of muscle distribution between kacang goat and PE goat slaughtered over the weight 10 Kg. The data of body components was analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) while muscle of distribution and other body components were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) with slaughter weight, half carcass weight as a covariable. The result showed that groups of muscles and body components among these breeds were no significantly different (P>0.05). There were no significantly differences among breeds in muscles of groups except the percentages of muscles of groups 3 and the muscles of groups 5. There were no significantly differences among breeds in body components except inter muscle fat weight, subcutan fat weight, inter muscle fat percentage, subcutan fat percentage, and kidney fat percentage. In general, the major muscles groups percentage (groups 1+3+5) in kacang goat is 60.35% and 60.71% for peranakan etawah goat.

Judul: Karakteristik Karkas dan Non Karkas Kambing Kacang dan Kambing Peranakan Etawah (PE) pada Bobot Lepas Sapih.
Abstrak: This study was conducted to evaluate carcass and non carcass characteristics of 27 Kacang goats and 16 Etawah crossbreed goats (Peranakan Etawah, PE) at post-weaning body weight (average 10.04 kg). The data were analysed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) with Slaughter Weight (SLW) and half carcass side as covariable. The results showed that PE goats had very significantly (P<0.01) higher in SLW, non carcass weight and percentages (based on SLW), while their Empty Body Weight (EBW) was significantly higher (P<0.05) than Kacang goats. PE goats had higher (P<0.01) percentages (based on EBW) of tail, vesica urinaria, and intestinal tract. PE goats also had higher (P<0.05) blood, pancreas and gastrointestinal tract percentages, whereas percentages of omental fat (P<0.05) and genitals (P<0.01) were greater for Kacang goats. There were no differences observed in percentages of muscle, fat and bone of carcass components between breeds, but PE goats had very significantly (P<0.01) higher percentages of connective tissue than Kacang goats. PE goats had higher proportion of leg (P<0.01), but Kacang goat had significantly higher (P<0.01) proportion of loin, rack and breast. Evaluation on carcass and non carcass characteristics of Kacang goats and PE goats which slaughtered at post-weaning body weight resulted differences on non carcass characteristics, carcass compositions and tissue distributions of commersial cuts.

Judul: Elektrodeposisi Film Tipis Semikonduktor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) pada Substrat Kaca ITO
Abstrak: Semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film that can be used as absorber layers on solar cell module was made via electrodeposition method. CZTS thin film was electrodeposited on the surface of a silicate glass coated with a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Deposition process was done using potentiostatic mode at room temperature with a potential of 1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes, followed with annealing the film at 2 different temperatures, 500 ºC using furnace and 180 ºC using hot plate, both treatments for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. The X-ray difractograms were analyzed using Match 2 program and showed that the CZTS thin films had kesterit crystalline structure, with a low percentage of CZTS phase. The thin film also contained secondary phases such as Cu2S, ZnS, and SnS. The obtained CZTS thin films had a thickness between 1.039 and 1.676 μm. Absorption study showed that the band gap energy of CZTS thin films which was annealed using furnace ranged from 1.50 to 1.52 eV, whereas that annealed using the hot plate was not observed. The band gap energy value showed that CZTS thin films can be used as sunlight absorber layers on solar cell. The formation of CZTS crystal film on this investigation was effectively performed using furnace annealing process at a temperature of 500 ºC with deposition time of 45 minutes.
