Judul: Detection of Fish Gelatin Using Polymerase Chain Reaction Technique with Various DNA Markers
Abstrak: Penggunaan gelatin untuk pengolahan pangan dan nonpangan semakin meningkat, namun identifikasi gelatin yang berasal dari bahan baku ikan dengan sapi dan babi belum banyak dilakukan. Penelitian mengenai deteksi sumber gelatin ikan dengan teknik Polimerase Chain Reaction sangat penting untuk dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan melakukan isolasi DNA gelatin ikan serta menentukan primer untuk mengidentifikasi gelatin ikan dengan pendekatan DNA-based method. Proses amplifikasi isolat DNA dilakukan menggunakan primer target fish universal F1/R1, Mini-barcode, cyt b Pangasianodon sp., kolagen ikan, cyt b bovine, dan 12S rRNA-tRNA Val Sus sucrofa. Hasil sekuensing sampel DP dan GI dengan primer gen cyt b Pangasianodon sp. termasuk dalam spesies Pangasianodon sp. dengan persentase identity 100%. Analisis pohon filogeni sampel DNA juga menunjukkan bahwa sampel DP dan GI teridentifikasi sebagai Pangasionodon

Judul: Molecular Marker Gen Cytochrome B to Detect Species in Processed Fish Products
Abstrak: DNA barcoding dengan penanda genetik cytochrome b (cyt b) serta autentifikasi berbasis PCR digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi produk olahan perikanan serta keaslian bahan baku sehingga dapat mengurangi permasalahan keamanan pangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeteksi dan melihat ketertelusuran produk olahan perikanan. Sampel berjumlah 25 terdiri dari fillet ikan beku, asin, dan produk olahan perikanan yang diisolasi serta gen diperbanyak dengan primer universal. Isolat DNA memiliki konsentrasi 1,1-3.786,96 ng/μL dengan kemurnian 0,4-2,08. Primer universal berhasil mengamplifikasi gen cyt b sebanyak 22 dari 25 produk perikanan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan sampel terdeteksi sebagai Salmo salar, Lates calcarifer, Thunnus albacares. Hasil penelitan menunjukkan; Mislabelling untuk spesies Pangasianodon sp. yang dipasarkan sebagai produk fillet ikan dori dan kemudian Psettodes erumei yang dipasarkan sebagai ikan kerapu; serta dalam sampel terdeteksi juga ikan yang terancam punah yaitu spesies Carcharhinus falciformis, Sphyrna mokarran dan Himantura chaophraya., PCR-based DNA barcoding with genetic marker cytochrome b (cyt b) can be used to identify species in processed products as well as the authenticity of raw materials. This study aims to detect and see the traceability of fishery processed products. Twenty-five samples consisting of frozen fish fillets, salted fish fillets, and processed fishery product were isolated and their gene was amplified using universal primer. The DNA isolates had a concentration of 1.1-3,786.96 ng/μl, with a purity of 0.4-2.08. The universal primer was successfully amplified the cyt b gene in 22 out of 25 fish products. Analysis showed samples detected as Salmo salar, Lates calcarifer, Thunnus albacares. The results showed; Mislabelling for Pangasionodon sp. species which is marketed as a Dori fish fillet product and then Psettodes erumei which is marketed as Grouper fish fillet; And in the sample detected also endangered fish namely the species Carcharhinus falciformis, Sphyrna mokarran, and Himantura chaophraya.

Judul: Truncated Stop Loss as a Optimal Solution of Reinsurance Agreement in One-Period Model
Abstrak: Reinsurance is one of risk management efforts of an insurance company, which is called the cedent. Similar with insurance, reinsurance constitutes the cedent to pay the premium. We consider one-period reinsurance model and derive a rule which minimizes the ruin probability of the cedent for a fixed reinsurance premium. Therefore, it is needed to construct an optimal reinsurance agreement for the cedent. The premium is calculated according to four different principles, i.e. economic, generalized zero-utility, Esscher, and mean-variance principles. Stop loss is a reinsurance contract which protect the insurance company for losses that exceed a certain amount. The result of this research shows that a truncated stop loss is an optimal agreement in the class of all reinsurance contracts with various premiums calculated using above mentioned principles.
