Judul: Eco-spatial behavior approach of settlement occupancy In Kota Baru Bandar Kemayoran Flats.
Abstrak: Eco-spatial Behavior (ESB) is the embodiment of spatial setting that resulted from human action, which are in appropriated with the principles of ecology. These actions include human behavior towards space such as attitude, motivation, human action and achievement; and the fluctuation of the non-sensation system elements, which can form a pattern of human behavior. ESB will affect and be affected the quality of built environments, such as residential flat. In order to rejuvenate the environment Kota Baru Bandar Kemayoran in the 1980s have been aquality decreasing gradually. The study has used system approach and post occupancy evaluation method. The objectives of study are (1) to evaluate the technical performance, function and behavior post-occupancy of residential occupancy in low cost housing flats (2) to evaluate the indicators and ESB performance of residential low cost housing Flats, (3) to identify antecedents to behave ESB occupancy response, and (4) develop a model and ESB application scenario in the low cost Housing flats Bandar Kemayoran. The result showed that the achievement of technical performance of the flats building is 57% - 60%, performance achievement for occupancy function is 80% - 90%, and perception of the value of residential flats reaches 2.5 to 3.8 on a scale of 5 . Value of ESB performance is between 2 - 4. The antecedents of preserve the environment and behavior (ESB 1) and environmental coping efforts (ESB 2) are the attributes of presence or absence of opportunities, easy doing, and the norm (social pressure) which requires that will keep up the environment. The antecedents of motivation to improve the welfare of the inhabitants (ESB3) is the belief in the success and benefits of behaviors such as the benefits from action to increase the quality of home, income, health, pleasure and knowledge of residential flats. Organizational activity (ESB4) preceded by antecedent attributes such as awareness of environmental condition, occupant is adaptability, and residential regulation. The results simulation of the dynamics system for social model of ESB indicate that the number of occupants, spatial response, ESB, and public participation is declining, different from economic model of the ESB simulation that shows the welfare of residents is increasing. The environment model for the simulation ESB model shows the quality of residential flats is progressively decreasing, although the number of waste decreased.

Judul: Persepsi, Preferensi, Dan Perilaku Masyarakat Terhadap Konsep Ecodesign Lanskap Permukiman
Abstrak: Pertumbuhan jumlah penduduk perkotaan di Indonesia meningkatkan kebutuhan akan perumahan. Kota saat ini dituntut untuk menjadi tempat yang nyaman sekaligus berkelanjutan. Konsep desain yang ekologis atau ecodesign merupakan pendekatan dalam lanskap permukiman yang dapat meningkatkan kualitas lingkungan. Prinsip utama konsep ecodesign adalah integrasi desain alami dengan desain artifisial. Partisipasi masyarakat merupakan pertimbangan utama di dalam pengembangan desain lanskap yang ekologis. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis persepsi, preferensi, dan perilaku masyarakat perumahan terhadap konsep ecodesign serta menganalisis aspek ecodesign dan estetika perumahan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif melalui kegiatan survei lapang, wawancara, dan studi literatur dengan tahapan (1) tahap persiapan, (2) tahap pelaksanaan lapang, dan (3) tahap analisis data. Lokasi penelitian ini dilakukan di tiga perumahan di Kecamatan Bogor Barat, Kota Bogor, yaitu Bumi Menteng Asri, Griya Melati, dan Pakuan Regency. Terdapat dua fokus penelitian dalam konsep ecodesign lanskap permukiman ini yaitu konsep ecodesign lanskap permukiman skala rumah dan skala perumahan. Baik konsep ecodesign lanskap permukiman skala rumah maupun konsep skala perumahan dinilai menggunakan kriteria daftar periksa. Evaluasi estetika dilakukan untuk penelitian konsep ecodesign skala rumah menggunakan Scenic Beauty Estimation (SBE). Setelah dilakukan SBE, digunakan uji U Mann-Whitney untuk mengetahui perbedaan kualitas estetika di tiga lokasi penelitian. Untuk mengetahui korelasi antara aspek persepsi, preferensi, dan perilaku masyarakat serta korelasi antara aspek ecodesign dan estetika digunakan uji Rank Spearman. Berdasarkan hasil survei responden (n=90), terdapat 36% responden yang memahami konsep ecodesign lanskap permukiman dan sisanya (64%) tidak memahami konsep tersebut. Sebanyak 75% responden yang mengetahui konsep ecodesign menerapkan konsep ecodesign dalam perilaku sehari-hari. Meskipun terdapat 64% responden yang tidak memahami konsep ecodesign, mereka memiliki perilaku yang sejalan dengan konsep ecodesign. Pakuan Regency memiliki tingkat ecodesign tertinggi untuk nilai ecodesign skala rumah (30%), diikuti oleh Bumi Menteng Asri (17%) dan Griya Melati (7%). Griya Melati meraih nilai tertinggi untuk nilai ecodesign skala perumahan (65%), diikuti oleh Pakuan Regency (63%) dan Bumi Menteng Asri (60%). Pakuan Regency memiliki nilai estetika tertinggi. Hasil dari uji korelasi menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat korelasi yang signifikan antara persepsi, preferensi, dengan perilaku masyarakat. Selain itu, tidak terdapat hubungan antara aspek ecodesign serta aspek estetika. Namun demikian, terdapat korelasi positif antara aspek ecodesign dengan estetika sehingga potensi pengembangan lanskap permukiman yang bernilai ekologis dan estetis dapat dikembangkan.

Judul: Ichthyoacanthotoxins pada Beberapa Jenis Catfish: Clarias gariepinus (Clariidae), Pangasius hypophthalmus (Pangasidae), Plotosus canius (Plotosidae)
Abstrak: Ichthyoacanthotoxins are toxins released through the pectoral fins (horn) by venomous fish. Order Siluroidea like CLARIAS GARIEPINUS, PANGASIUS HYPOPHTHALMUS, and PLOTOSUS CANIUS generally have pectoral fins as a defense mechanism. The research was conducted from February 2014 through September 2014 to determine anatomical structure of the venom gland and the chemical composition (acanthotoxins) present in the pectoral and dorsal spine. The results of histological analysis showed that the anatomical structure pectoral and dorsal spine consists of pieces of muscle, adipose layer, blood vessels, and there is a venom gland at CLARIAS GARIEPINUS with a long shaft, which is 1612.48 μm. The results showed that the proximate analysis, protein content of PLOTOSUS CANIUS is higher than the protein content of CLARIAS GARIEPINUS and PANGASIUS HYPOPHTHALMUS, while the fat content of CLARIAS GARIEPINUS higher than the fat content of PANGASIUS HYPOPHTHALMUS and PLOTOSUS CANIUS.
