Judul: The contribution of noodle, milk, and soft drink to macronutrient intake of normal and overweight female university students.
Abstrak: terhadap kecukupan gizi pada remaja dengan status gizi normal dan kegemukan. Secara khusus penelitian ini bertujuan untuk : (1) Mempelajari pengetahuan gizi remaja terhadap mie, susu, dan soft drink pada remaja normal dan kegemukan; (2) Mempelajari sikap remaja terhadap mie, susu, dan minuman ringan pada remaja normal dan kegemukan; (3) Mempelajari atribut produk mie, susu, dan minuman ringan; (4) Membandingkan konsumsi dan asupan zat gizi terhadap produk mie, susu, dan minuman ringan pada remaja normal dan kegemukan; (5) Mengkaji hubungan pengetahuan dan sikap terhadap konsumsi mie, susu, dan minuman ringan pada remaja normal dan kegemukan; (6) Mengkaji hubungan konsumsi mie, susu, dan minuman ringan terhadap kecukupan gizi pada remaja normal dan kegemukan. Desain penelitian ini adalah Cross-sectional study. Contoh dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswi di Asrama Putri Tingkat Persiapan Bersama (TPB) Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) yang memiliki status gizi normal dan overweight. Teknik penarikan contoh dilakukan dengan simple random sampling dengan jumlah contoh adalah 90 contoh yang terdiri dari 60 contoh berstatus gizi normal dan 30 contoh berstatus gizi kegemukan.

Judul: Pengetahuan Gizi, Kebiasaan Makan, Konsumsi Minuman Manis, Tingkat Kecukupan Gizi, dan Status Gizi Mahasiswa IPB University.
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengetahuan gizi, kebiasaan makan, konsumsi minuman manis, dan tingkat kecukupan energi dan zat gizi dengan status gizi pada mahasiswa IPB University. Desain penelitian ini adalah cross sectional study dengan melibatkan 46 mahasiswa berstatus gizi normal dan 46 mahasiswa berstatus gizi gemuk/obesitas. Sebagian subjek memperoleh tingkat pengetahuan gizi rendah (50%), skor kebiasaan makan rendah (81,5%), asupan energi minuman manis sedang (45,7%), frekuensi konsumsi minuman manis sering (75%), dan tingkat kecukupan energi (76,1%), protein (68,5%), lemak (67,4%), dan karbohidrat (78,3%) kurang. Terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelompok status gizi normal dan gemuk pada variabel asupan energi minuman manis dan frekuensi konsumsi minuman manis (p<0,05). Uji korelasi menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara frekuensi konsumsi minuman manis, tingkat kecukupan protein dan lemak dengan status gizi (p<0,05). Hasil uji regresi menunjukkan secara keseluruhan terdapat pengaruh antara frekuensi konsumsi minuman manis terhadap status gizi., This study aims to analyze the nutritional knowledge, eating habits, consumption of sweetened beverages, energy and nutrients adequacy level with the nutritional status of IPB University students. The design of this study was cross sectional study involved 46 students with normal nutritional status and 46 students with overweight/obese nutritional status. Most subject has low nutritional knowledge (50%), low eating habits’ score (81,5%), moderate energy intake of sweetened beverages (45,7%), high frequency of sweetened beverages consumption (75%), and low adequacy level of energy (76,1%), protein (68,5%), fat (67,4%) dan carbohydrate (78,3%). There was a significant difference of normal and overweight/obese students in energy intake of sweetened beverages and frequency of sweetened beverages consumption (p<0,05). There was a significant correlation between frequency of sweet beverages consumption, adequacy level of protein and fat with nutritional status (p<0,05). Regression test result showed over all there was an effect in frequency of sweetened beverages consumption to nutritional status.

Judul: Mitochondrial DNA Gene Organization and Phylogenetic Relationship of Naja siamensis
Abstrak: Naja siamensis is one of Asiatic cobra in the Family of Elapidae, known as a cryptic snake. It has many morphological variations that lead to misidentification. Misidentification can cause the wrong concept in developing antivenom types due to high snakebite cases occur in Thailand. Thus, an accurate species identification using a molecular approach is crucially required. Mitochondrial DNA has been used widely in snake molecular studies. These studies were aimed to determine the arrangement of the N. siamensis partial mitochondrial genes using reptile-oriented primers and to reveal the phylogenetic relationship among other species of Asian cobra. DNA extraction was carried out based on the standard DNA salting-out protocol and was conducted by bioinformatics analysis using BLASTn and MEGA 6 software. Gene annotation was performed against N. kaouthia complete genome. A total of 3121 bp of N. siamensis mtDNA genes were sequenced consisting of partial of six regions: 16S rRNA, ND1, tRNA-Ile, CRII region, tRNA-Leu, tRNA-Gln, and COI genes. The mtDNA gene organization of N. siamensis was predicted to has a similar pattern with the common Elapidae mtDNA gene organization. This study showed that there is a monophyletic form in Naja genus and N. kaouthia is the closest species with N. siamensis based on partial 16S rRNA and ND1 gene.
