Judul: THE EFFECT OF ADDING CURCUMA TO DIET ON THE POST TRANSPORTATION RECOVERY OF RAM
Abstrak: Proses transportasi ternak dapat menyebabkan stress yang memengaruhi kondisi fisiologis, penurunan bobot badan dan kualitas daging. Dampak yang dialami harus segera diatasi sehingga masa pemulihan perlu dilakukan lebih cepat. Curcuma xanthorrhiza merupakan tanaman yang mengandung senyawa kurkumin dan minyak atsiri sehingga dapat meningkatkan kinerja metabolisme dan konsumsi. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi pengaruh temulawak dalam pakan terhadap masa pemulihan domba jantan pasca transportasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan 15 ekor domba jantan berumur 12–14 bulan dan bobot badan 19,71±1,97 kg yang dibagi dalam tiga perlakuan serta lima kelompok dengan rancangan acak kelompok. Parameter yang diamati adalah penyusutan bobot badan, respon fisiologis, konsumsi nutrien, performa, profil hematologi dan metabolit darah. Data dianalisis menggunakan Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) dan Paired Sample T-Test serta perlakuan yang berbeda nyata diuji dengan Duncan menggunakan software IBM SPSS 25. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan tidak memberikan pengaruh nyata (p>0,05) terhadap seluruh parameter. Lama pemulihan setelah sembilan hari pengamatan berpengaruh nyata (p<0,05) terhadap respon fisiologis, eritrosit, leukosit, hemoglobin, neutrofil, monosit, glukosa, blood urea nitrogen, dan kreatinin. Simpulan penelitian ini adalah penambahan 2% tepung temulawak selama 9 hari pengamatan mampu menghasilkan bobot badan 1,8 kali lebih besar daripada tanpa temulawak., The process of livestock transportation causes stress, which affects physiological conditions, reduce body weight and meat quality. The following consequences must be addressed immediately, so recovery needs to be carried out more quickly. Curcuma xanthorrhiza is a plant that contains curcumin compounds and essential oils, so it can improve metabolic performance and increase consumption. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of curcuma in the diet on post transportation recovery of ram. This study used 15 rams with 12–14 months of age and body weight (19,71±1,97 kg), which were divided into three treatments with five groups in a randomized block design. Parameters that were tested are body weight loss, physiological responses, nutrient consumption, performance, hematological and metabolite blood profile. Data ware analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Paired Sample T-Test, significantly different were tested with Duncan multiple range test using IBM SPSS 25 software. Results showed that the treatment had no significant effect (p>0,05) on all parameters. The recovery time after nine days observation had a significant effect (p<0,05) on physiological responses, erythrocytes, leukocytes, haemoglobin, neutrophil, monocytes, glucose, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine. This research concludes that adding 2% curcuma flour for nine days of observation produced a body weight 1.8 times greater than without curcuma.

Judul: Feeding Silage and Wafer Complete Ration to Physiological Status, and Restoration of Post-Transportation Sheep Performance
Abstrak: Pemulihan berat badan yang hilang setelah pengangkutan dapat dilakukan dengan pemberian ransum. Ransum yang diberikan harus berkualitas, serta memenuhi kebutuhan nutrien ternak domba agar pemulihan bobot badan yang susut setelah transportasi dapat segera kembali pada kondisi bobot semula. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi pemberian silase dan wafer ransum komplit terhadap pertambahan bobot badan untuk pemulihan berat badan domba pasca transportasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan 12 ekor domba lokal jantan yang diangkut dari Garut ke Bogor. Menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok (RAK) dengan 3 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan. Perlakuan terdiri dari P0 (Hijauan 70% + Konsentrat Komersial 30%), P1 (Silage Ransum Komplit), P2 (Wafer Ransum Komplit). Ransum diberikan dalam jumlah bertahap berdasarkan bahan kering ransum dan air minum yang diberikan secara ad libitum. Pemberian silase ransum komplit mencapai pemulihan bobot badan domba pada minggu 3, dan pada pemberian wafer ransum komplit dicapai pada minggu 4., Recovery of lost weight after transportation can be done by giving rations. The rations given must be of good quality, and meet the nutritional needs of sheep so that the recovery of lost body weight after transportation can immediately return to its original weight condition. This study aimed to evaluate the complete ration of silage and wafers on body weight gain for post-transportation sheep weight recovery. This study used 12 male local sheep transported from Garut to Bogor. Using a randomized block design (RAK) with 3 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments consisted of P0 (70% Green + 30% Commercial Concentrate), P1 (Complete Silage Ration), P2 (Complete Wafer Ration). The rations are given in incremental amounts based on the dry matter of the ration and drinking water given ad libitum. Giving complete ration silage achieved the restoration of body weight of sheep at week 3, and in the provision of wafer complete ration was achieved at week 4.

Judul: Sintesis dan Pencirian Senyawa 4-Dodekanadioilbis(1-fenil-3-metil-5-pirazolon) sebagai Ionofor untuk Penentuan Ion Lu3+ dengan Teknik Elektrode Selektif Ion
Abstrak: Ion selective electrode (ISE) as an alternative potentiometric method is used widely in determining Lu3+. The success of this method depends on the ionophor used on the ISE. The compound of 4-dodecanedioylbis(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone) or H2DdBP as pyrazolone derivatives will be used as ionophor on ISE-Lu3+. H2DdBP had been successfully synthesized by Jensen’s method. This method involved reaction of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone and dodecanedioyl chloride in basic condition. A compound was produced as a solid substance and was purified by recrystallization using chloroform-ethanol. High performance liquid chromatogram showed that the compound was pure. The compound was in keto form with melting point range of 150-152ºC. Infrared spectra showed vibration peaks (cm-1) were 3451 (br, OH), 1624 (s, C=O), 1589 (s, phenyl C=C), 1558 (s, pyrazolone ring). Chemical shifts (Hz) for 1H-NMR were 7.81–7.84, 7.43–7.46, 7.26–7.290 (m, 10H, Ph); 2.72–2.75 (t, 4H, (CH2)2); 2.47 (s, 6H, CH3); 1.71–1.76 (m, 4H, (CH2)2); 1.32 (m, 12H, (CH2)6). All of these properties showed the characteristics of H2DdBP. Nernst factor of ISE-Lu3+ for two repetitions were 10.40 mV/decade and 8.60 mV/decade which showed that ISE-Lu3+ had good response in determining Lu3+.
