Abstrak: The study was aimed to describe the morphology of female reproductive organ of the Asian palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). This study was used three females of Asian palm civet that examined using macroscopic and microscopic observation. Microscopic observation was done using Hematoxillin-Eosin and Masson’s trichrome staining methods. The female reproductive organs of Asian palm civet were consisted of ovary sinister and dexter, oviducts, uteri, vagina, vestibule, and vulva. The average weight of dexter and sinister ovaries were 0,18±0,09 and 0,19±0,09 g respectively. The length of dexter and sinister ovaries, oviduct, cornua uteries, and corpus uteries were 0,79±0,23 and 0,77±0,26; 3,82±1,49 and 3,85±1,43; 3,04±0,22 and 3,27±0,60, 2,32±0,12 cm respectively. The length of cervix, vagina, and vestibule were 0,97±0,44, 1,27±0,44, and 0,71±0,22 cm respectively. Ovaries of Asian palm civet were consisted of cortex and medula. The oviduct has mucosa folds and the epithelium was found no cilia. Endometrial glands were found in cornua and corpus uteri. Macroscopically and microscopically, the structure of the female reproductive organs were very similar to those cat and dog.

Abstrak: The study was aimed to explore the intestinal morphology of Asian palm civet. It included histochemical study on the distribution of acid and neutral carbohydrates component along the intestine of Asian palm civet. This study used three preserved intestinal organs of Asian palm civet. The sample was studied using macroscopic and microscopic approach of observations. The macroscopic observations were done by focusing on morphometric of the intestine. The microscopic observations were done by preparing histological slides and staining with hematoxylin eosin (HE), alcian blue (AB) pH 2.5, and periodic acid Schiff (PAS). The results showed that Asian palm civet’s caecum was curved like a comma and the colon was short without segment. The average length of the intestine were 140.06±13.09 centimeters. The lenght ratio of intestine to body were 1:3 that was noted as in between insectivores and carnivores. Asian palm civet intestinal’s wall was composed of inner mucosa, submucosa, tunica muscularis, and outer serosa with varying in thickness. There were submucosal lymphatic tissue in ileum that formed Peyer’s patches and solitary lymphatic nodules in caecum. The distribution of acid and neutral carbohydrates were found in the intestinal mucosal in goblet cells and glandular epithelial of crypt Lieberkuhn. The Brunner’s glands only were gave positive reaction to PAS staining. The morphology of the intestine of the Asian palm civet more closely to those on carnivores than those which found in omnivores.

Judul: Pemanasan Sekunder Reaksi Fusi Plasma dengan Menggunakan Radio Frequency
Abstrak: Plasma merupakan bentuk ke-empat dari materi setelah padat, cair dan gas yang terbentuk dari proses ionisasi gas. Plasma dapat digunakan dalam reaksi fusi, yaitu reaksi penggabungan dua inti atom ringan menjadi inti atom yang lebih berat sambil melepaskan energi. Untuk mendapatkan energi dari reaksi fusi, inti yang akan direaksikan harus dipanaskan pada temperatur yang sangat ekstrem tingginya. Salah satu cara agar dapat mencapai kondisi ini adalah memberikan pemanasan tambahan atau pemanasan sekunder kepada plasma dalam reaksi fusi tersebut. Nilai daya serap rata-rata ion Deuterium yang sesuai dengan selang nilai daya dari data ITER adalah daya yang menggunakan frekuensi 50 MHz sampai dengan 60 MHz. Dengan menggunakan frekuensi 60 Hz diperoleh nilai daya rata-rata yang diserap sebesar 1,235.10-12 W.
