Judul: Uji aktivitas hepatoprotektor ekstrak air pegagan (Centella asiatica) terhadap tikus putih jantan yang diinduksi parasetamol
Abstrak: This study was undertaken to investigate activity of Centella asiatica extract against paracetamol induced liver damage in male Wistar albino rats. Rats were divided into five groups namely control (aquadest), herb extract with four formulations which were F 6, F 10, F 12, and F 16. Rats were administered paracetamol at dose 1000 mg/kg bw (p.o) as toxic dose for inducing hepatotoxicity. Herb extract in each formula was given at dose 1500 mg/kg bw (p.o) one hour after paracetamol administration. The treatment was given for eight days and blood was collected three times (before treatment, after paracetamol treatment, and last treatment) from tail artery and analysed for serum glutamate pyruvate transminase (SGPT). The hepatoxicity produced by acute paracetamol administration was found to be inhibited by Centella asiatica at group F 16 with evidence of decreased level of serum glutamate pyruvate transminase (SGPT) consentration. The hepatoprotective activity Centella asiatica was also supported by histopathological studies of hepatocytes

Judul: Aktivitas hepatoprotektor ekstrak metanol daun kari (Murraya koenigii .L.) pada tikus putih Sprague dawley, Activity of Curry Leaf (Muraya koenigii. L.) Methanol Extract as Hepatoprotector in Sprague dawley Rats
Abstrak: Curry leaf is being thought as hepatoprotector againts liver damage caused by hepatotoxic agent such as paracetamol. This study was assesing the activity of curry leaf extract in reducing the activity of ALT (alanine aminotransferase) and AST (aspartate aminotransferase) in rats were given high dose paracetamol. Total of 25 rats were used in this research which were divided into 5 experimental groups as follows: normal control group (N), negative control group (KN) (paracetamol dose 500 mg/Kg BW were given 21 days), positive control group (KP) (curliv dose 42.86 mg/Kg BW were given 21 days), dose 200 mg/Kg BW extract group (ED200), and dose 300 mg/Kg BW extract group (ED300). Extracts were given 7 days before paracetamol treatment and continous until end of experiment. Pytochemistry test results showed that curry leaf methanol extract contain alcaloids, tannins, saponins, and steroids. Extract group had not significantly reduced ALT and AST activity (p>0.05) compared to N group. Decreasing ALT and AST activity in ED200 group is 16.21% and 33.82%. Decreasing ALT and AST activity in ED300 group is 33.82% dan 62.60%. Methanol extract curry leaf had hepatoprotector activity although not significantly differences.

Judul: Bifurkasi Hopf pada Model Siklus Bisnis Kaldor Kalecki tanpa dan dengan Waktu Tunda
Abstrak: Business cycle model is one of dynamical system models in economic. One of the business cycles model is Kaldor-Kalecki model. Kaldor-Kalecki business cycle model that is written in delayed defferential equations, is a business cycle model that involves gross product and capital stock of a company. In this paper Kaldor-Kalecki business cycle model is analyzed using both nondelay and delay in time of capital stock. By Taylor expansion for the time delayed model, an analysis of stability around the fixed points has been done. Furthermore, by using Hopf bifurcation theorem, it can be shown that there exists periodic orbits and limit cycle. In the nondelayed model, changing the parameter of goods market could lead to the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation and the existence of limit cycle. Similarly, for the delayed model, it has been shown that changing the time delay parameter may result in the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation and limit cycle.
