Judul: Analisis persepsi dan preferensi konsumen terhadap Jeruk Keprok Garut di Kabupaten Garut, Jawa Barat
Abstrak: In 1980 Jeruk Keprok Garut became the best local orange comodity and either had good quality and competitiveness with Jeruk Pontianak and Jeruk Medan. Jeruk Keprok Garut started to be less known by Indonesian after infected by Citrus Vein Phloem Degeneration (CVPD) and erupted of Gunung Galunggung in Tasikmalaya. And The Huge number of imported Orange in our market was supporting the reason why Jeruk Keprok Garut were being less known by local community (Indonesian).This study/research is intended to investigate the consumer characters, consumer perception and consumer preference toward Jeruk Keprok Garut. Based on the investigation, we obtained some conclusion that consumer characteristics were mostly women, especially who lived in the Districts around the City Center, who were have age around 25-35 years old, married and working with income of above Rp 2 000 000, Consumer was seeing that Jeruk Keprok Garut has a taste of fresh sweet with a little of acidity. It has high water content, clean yellow-green skin, fresh and strong aroma. The price was also relatively affordable and easily found in around Garut City Center (urban areas). Consumer preferences is measured by the Method of Conjoint, which shows that consumer are more inclined to chooseJeruk Keprok Garut with combinations of low price attributes that have range at the lowest price in the market of Rp 13 000- Rp 17 000 per kilogram, sweet taste, watery, and fresh aroma.

Judul: Kajian kualitas jeruk keprok garut (citrus reticulata l.) Pada tiga lokasi Berbeda di kabupaten garut
Abstrak: The objective of the research is to get information of the fruit quality difference of Garut keprok fruits (Citrus reticulata L.) from three different locations in Garut Regency is Cioyod, Cimencek and Rancabeet. Research was carried out in the Production and Post-harvest Laboratory-IPB in December 2011 until January 2012, used the Completely Randomized Design with 90 trial units of 6 replicates. The variables that observed covering the decline in the weight, juice content, total titratable acidity, total soluble solids, peel colour, and fruit firmness. Result of this research is to indicate the citrus fruit quality criteria desired by consumers such as citrus fruit with a yellowish or yellow green color, sweet taste, not too soft, a little seed, and of medium size. Garut keprok fruit with quality criteria are Garut keprok fruit of Cimencek. Garut keprok fruit of the three locations have the shelf life for 5 weeks. Conditions PTT increased, then decreased indicated by weight, juice content and an increase in fruit softness

Judul: Mathematical model of Hematopoietic Stem Cell in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia with and without Therapy
Abstrak: Leukemia or blood cancer is a diverse group of neoplastic disease, characterized by the multiplication of abnormal leukocytes or malignant transformation of blood-forming cells in bone marrow and lymphoid tissues. One of the most common types of leukemia is Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), which is usually diagnosed by the presence of certain chromosomal abnormalities, the so-called Philadelphia chromosome (Ph). One of the treatments of CML is Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF). In this paper, we discuss two Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) models, i.e. HSC without treatment and HSC with G-CSF treatment. The model of HSC without treatment included three equations representing the dynamics of HSC, leukocyte and platelet. Whereas, the model of HSC with G-CSF treatment includes the previous three equations and adds two more equations representing G-CSF injection and G-CSF circulation. The stability behavior of the system approaching the equilibrium points in the simulation study is carried out using Mathematica 7.0. The simulation results show that the G-CSF treatment can successfully decrease the number of HSC, which means reducing the CML.
