Judul: Partisipasi komunitas kumuh perkotaan di bantaran sungai Ciliwung dalam program pengelolaan sampah organic berbasis komunitas
Abstrak: Program pengelolaan sampah organik merupakan salah satu upaya pemberdayaan yang dilakukan oleh sebuah organisasi masyarakat bernama Ciliwung Merdeka terhadap komunitas marginal di Kota Jakarta. Rangkaian kegiatan dalam program pengelolaan sampah organik melibatkan komunitas kumuh perkotaan di bantaran Sungai Ciliwung dalam mengidentifikasi permasalahan dan potensi yang dimiliki komunitas. Dengan demikian proses pembelajaran yang diterapkan mengarah pada prinsip buttom up. Tujuan penelitian adalah (1) Mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tingkat partisipasi komunitas kumuh perkotaan terhadap program pengelolaan sampah organik; (2) Mengkaji hubungan antara tingkat kemauan, tingkat kemampuan, dan tingkat kesempatan yang dimiliki komunitas kumuh perkotaan terhadap tingkat partisipasi dalam program pengelolaan sampah organik; dan (3) Mengetahui sampai sejauh mana tingkat partisipasi (tipologi Arnstein) komunitas kumuh perkotaan dalam program pengelolaan sampah organik.

So that, when damage occurs in that area, it will effect to the middle and lower area of the watershed. The purposes of this study were (1) to determine the stakeholders who involved in the rescue of Citarum watershed upstream, (2) to know the effectiveness of participatory institutions to change attitudes and behavior of society around the Citarum watershed upstream. This study was conducted using a quantitative approach supported by qualitative approach. Meanwhile, the results of this study showed (1) institutional participatory have successfully changed attitudes and behavior of society to not to dispose the household garbage and sewage into the river again (2) participatory institutional not yet managed to change the manner of private parties to not to dispose garbage and industrial waste into the river, and (3) participatory institutions in central are more effective to change society attitudes and behavior to be more concerned for the environment than the existing participatory institutions in the upstream.

Judul: Pengujian Virus Newcastle Disease Gen VII Isolat Lapang Sebagai Virus Standar Pada Uji Tantang Vaksin
Abstrak: This study was conducted to determine the standard of Newcastle disease virus Gene VII field isolate as a virus challenge to vaccine test. A virus suspension that has previously been tested by HA test then titrated with EID50 using 30 Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) of 10 day old chicken embryonated eggs. In addition, chicken lethal dose50 (CLD50) test were used to determine the virus titer that could cause 50% death of the chicken population. The CLD50 test was used 25 day-old-chickens (DOC) divided into 5 groups. The virus was diluted from 10-1 to 10-8. The 104 to 10-8 dilution of NDV was infected to every group of chicken via eyedrop and intranasal with 0.1 ml/chicken dosage. Haemagglutination test showed that the allantoic fluid were contain high titers of NDV is 512 HAU. The infective NDV that had been titrated by EID50 test showed the virus titers is 109 EID50/0.1 ml or 1010 EID50/ml and the virus titers of CLD50 test e.i 106.48 CLD50/0.1 ml or 107.48 CLD50/ml. These results can be concluded that the NDV Gene VII field isolates were most appropriate to be used as a standard virus to vaccine test
