Judul: Commercialization Strategy Analysis of IPB’s Food and Beverages Inventions
Abstrak: IPB has many inventions but unfortunately the percentage of their commercialization is low. The study was aimed to optimalize the commercialization strategy of IPB’s food and beverages inventions which consist of (1) formulating generic strategy of inventions commercialization, (2) grouping the invemtions into clusters and (3) formulating of the effective commercialization strategy of each invention cluster. The study consists of SWOT Analysis, Cluster Analysis and AHP (analytic hierarchy process). The study has successfully identified five general strategies to optimalize the IPB’s food and beverages inventions, i.e (1) mapping of requirements strategy priority and inventions step, (2) market research and trend of consumer demand, (3) revilalization of incubation activity as industrial teaching and new commercially product development as well as synergize with start up capital program, (4) the need of joint production marketing and financial, and (5) revilatization of invention area. IPB’s inventions of food and beverages can be categorized into three clusters i.e. diversification food, added-value, and utilization of local source. The cluster of diversification food with low entry barriers has competence to be more developed. Mean while the cluster of added-value and utilization of local source with medium and low entry barriers respectively, has limited competence to be developed. Hence, the strategy priority for cluster of diversification food and added-value is joint and for utilization of local source is license.

Judul: Analisis Strategi Pengembangan Komersialisasi Jagung Hibrida Hasil Invensi
Abstrak: Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research (IAARD) has 200 selective products of innovation/invention, but only 13 inventions that had been commercialized by investors and 5 of them are maize hybrid invention. This study provides information to enhance commercialization on maize hybrid invention. Characteristic of maize hybrids invention is still require further development. Through a licensing partnership scheme, IAARD expected a symbiotic mutually beneficial for both, inventors and investors. Aim of this study is to analyze strategy on commercialization development of maize hybrid invention. This study use some methodology on how we concise strategy with Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE), matrix of External Factor Evaluation (EFE), Strengths Weaknesses Opportunities and Threats (SWOT), Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Results from input stage with matrix of IFE and EFE score (2.45;2,90), this means IAARD need to advance its strategy to handle the threat and optimized its opportunities. Observations on internal and external factors for matching stage through SWOT matrix analysis extracted 8 (eight) strategies that need to be developed are: (1) increase in human resource capability; (2) increase facility; (3) increase standardize varieties of invention which has to be New, Unique, Constant and Uniform; (4) develop some seed stock; (5) increase promotion and socialization efforts for IAARD’s invention; (6) establish strategic alliance with state-owned seed; (7) implementation of the pre-license; and (8) formulate the valuation of invention. Results from decision stage through QSPM show us that the highest total attractiveness score (TAS) is in strategy on formulate the valuation of invention (5.55). Highest weights obtained from Expert Choice 2000 software by synthesizing alternative strategy is also for strategy on formulate the valuation of invention (0.470), followed by the implementation of promotion (0.377) and implementation of pre-licensee (0.153). Both decisions stage on QSPM and AHP analysis showed us consistence answers by the resource persons and expert.

Judul: Babesiosis pada kuda
Abstrak: Babesiosis pada kuda adalah penyakit menular yang di- sebabkan oleh Babesia caballi dan Babesia equi, yaitu pa- rasit protozoa perusak sel darah yang termasuk dalam genus Babesia. B. equi diduga oleh beberapa ahli termasuk dalam genus Theileria. Karena itu klasifikasi genus Babesia di- bicarakan dan siklus hidup B. caballi dan B. equi diulas. Kuda pada semua umur dapat terserang oleh dua parasite tersebut di atas. Tetapi kuda-kuda yang sudah dewasa (tua) lebih rentan jika dibandingkan dengan kuda-kuda yang masih muda. Kasus-kasus yang paling sering dijumpai adalah kasus-kasus yang bersifat akut walaupun kasus-kasus yang bersifat perakut, subakut dan kronik kadang-kadang terlihat. Serangan oleh parasit Babesia biasanya menyebabkan kerusаkan sel darah merah yang hebat sehingga kuda-kuda yang terserang menderita anemia hebat yang dapat menyebabkan kematian bila tidak segera diobati. Untuk mengatasi hal tersebut perlu dilakukan diagnosis yang tepat dan sedini mungkin. Diagnosis dapat dilakukan dengan cara memeriksa gejala-gejala klinik, preparat ulas darah, inokulasi hewan lain dan dengan mengadakan pemeriksaan secara serologik. Gejala-gejala klinik babesiosis pada kuda yang bersifat akut yang paling sering terlihat, ialah : nafsu makan menurun/hilang, lesu, bulu suram dan tidak mau bergerak. Kuda yang dilepaskan di padang rumput akan mengasingkan diri dan jalan sempoyongan. Faeces yang keluar berwarna cok- lat gelap, diselaputi lendir yang berwarna kekuningan dan urimenya berwarna merah tua. Temperatur tubuh meningkat menjadi 39.5 - 41°C dan pulsus meningkat. Terlihat dispnoe, perdarahan petechi pada mukosa membrana nictitans dan conjunctiva yang lebih pucat dari normal dan juga icteris. Kasus-kasus yang bersifat subakut gejala-gejalanya lebih ringan, tetapi bila tidak segera diobati maka gejala- gejala tersebut secara cepat menjadi hebat. Persendian lutut dan persendian gelang puyuh membengkak dan padanya ter- lihat oedema. Pada abdomen, dada dan kepala juga dapat di- temukan oedema. Gejala-gejala klinik yang terlihat pada kasus kronik adalah penurunan kondisi tubuh kuda secara progresif walaupun diberi makan yang banyak. Perubahan temperatur tidak jelas, nafsu makan berubah-ubah, icterus tidak jelas dan anemia mungkin hanya dapat dideteksi dengan menghitung sel darah merah dan kadar hematocrit…dst
