Judul: Effect of electrolyte drink made from palm sugar (Arenga pinnatamerr) for lamb transportation
Abstrak: Long distance of sheep transportation can cause stress. In general, the losses caused by poor handled include physiological, phychological and economical factor. The aims of study was to observe the effect of initial information isotonic drink made from Palm Sugar (Arenga PinnataMerr),and the effect ofisotonic drinks best on the sheep transportation physiological responses, body weight shrinkage, feed intake reduction and changing in blood profiles. A total of 20 local garut sheep under 1 years old were trasported for 120 km distance and took aproximatly ±8 hours. The study used CRD (completely randomized design) consisted of three traetments with 5 replicates. The treatments were the time of offering isotonic drink as follows:P1= control (without isotonic drink), P2= offering isotonic drink an hour before trasnsportation, P3= offering isotonic drink after after transportation, and P4= offering isotonic drink before and after transportation. The results showed that on body temperature, heart rate, respiration rate. Shrinkage percentage of body weight, feed consumption and the value of neutrophils (P <0.05). Body weight shrinkage percentage, feed intake reduction and the value of neutrophils (P<0.05). Average body weight lowest shrinkage P3 (5.73%) and the highest P1(10,05%), the lowest decrease in feed consumption P2 (20%) P.1 highest (42.6%) and an increase in the value of neutrophils P3 (51.78%) and the highest P1(67.76%). It was concluded of this study was isotonic drink is the provision of an isotonic drink made from palm sugar with isotonic drinks granting post-transport P3 showed positive results for body weight and value depreciation blood neutrophils, but for best consumption reduction obtained P2. However, effect of isotonic drinks have not been able to provide the restorative effects of stress in a short time.

Judul: Supplementation of Amino Acids and Sugar on Physiological Response and Performance of Thin Tailed Sheep Post Transportation
Abstrak: Pengangkutan ternak merupakan kegiatan yang dapat menimbulkan stres pada ternak yang ditunjukkan dengan perubahan fisiologis, penurunan bobot badan, dan masa pemulihan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh pemberian asam amino dan gula terhadap respon fisiologis, penurunan bobot badan dan waktu pemulihan domba setelah pengangkutan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Lapangan Produksi Ternak Ruminansia Kecil Blok B Fakultas Peternakan Institut Pertanian Bogor. Penelitian menggunakan 8 domba jantan ekor tipis dengan rataan bobot badan 19,46 ± 3,77 kg berumur ± 1 tahun. Penelitian ini menggunakan uji-T dengan perlakuan; P0 = Kontrol (tanpa asam amino dan gula), P1 = pemberian 12 g/ekor asam amino dan 25 g/ekor gula, dengan empat ulangan tiap perlakuan. Transportasi dilakukan selama 8 jam. Hasil respon fisiologis menunjukkan bahwa suplementasi asam amino dan gula berbeda nyata terhadap suhu rektal (P<0,05) mampu mempertahankan suhu rektal pada kisaran normal sedangkan untuk penyusutan bobot badan dan waktu pemulihan tidak berbeda nyata (P>0,05). Penambahan asam amino dan gula mampu menahan cekaman panas dan dapat mempertahankan suhu rektal domba pada kondisi normal selama transportasi.

Judul: Penentuan Nilai Eigen dan Vektor Eigen dari Matriks Tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz dengan Pendekatan Polinomial Chebyshev
Abstrak: The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix can be determined by finding its characteristic polynomials. The characteristic polynomials of a tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix is shown to be closely connected to polynomials which satisfy the Chebyshev recurrence relationship. If the order of the matrix is odd, then the eigenvalues are found explicitly in terms of the Chebyshev zeros and the eigenvectors are found in terms of the polynomials satisfying the recurrence relationship. For even ordered matrices, the situation is more complicated. The problem in these cases is that although the Chebyshev recurrence formula is still applied, its initial values are not generating Chebyshev polynomials
