Judul: Penghambatan Korosi Tembaga Menggunakan Ekstrak Tanin dari Gambir Asalan, Biji Pinang dan Kulit Manggis
Abstrak: Copper is a metal widely used in industry because of its ability to conduct electricity and good mechanical ability. Although it has many advantages, copper faces problem relating with corrosion. The impact of corrosion can cause equipment damage, explosion, fire and death. Corrosion can not be avoided, but its rate can be decreased. In this research was made experimental corrosion inhibitor from material derived from raw gambier (Uncaria gambir Roxb.), areca nut (Areca catechu) and mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana). Those three materials are natural resources that owned by Indonesia. The general objective of this research was to produce the best solution on copper corrosion inhibitors that are environmentally friendly, while the specific objective of this study were to determine the effect of the source of tannins on the rate of corrosion on copper in 1 M HCl solution and to determine concentration of inhibitor that is effective in inhibiting corrosion on copper in solution of 1M HCl. Extract tannins from raw gambier, areca nut and mangosteen peel have the ability to inhibit corrosion on copper when soaked in a solution of HCl 1 M. The ability of the best inhibitors obtained from raw gambier-based solution with the lowest corrosion rate is 37.06 mpy, followed by areca nut 45.34 mpy and mangosteen peel 49.49 mpy while in the blank, the corrosion rate 190.46 mpy. Inhibitor efficiency of gambier amounted to 80.54%, betel nut 75.19% and mangosteen peel 74.01%. Activation energy value which needed by system with concentration of 0.00%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1.00% are respectively 6285 J/mol, 26347 J/mol, 31551 J/mol and 28749 J/mol. Therefor, the addition of inhibitors as much as 0.75% at temperature of 303 K, 308 K, 313 K and 318 K was effective in inhibiting the corrosion rate. This is supported the copper appearance data which not change into greenich blue color while given by 0.75% tannin concentration.

Judul: Studi Pemanfaatan Tanin dari Gambir (Uncaria gambir Roxb) sebagai Produk Peluruh dan Pencegah Karat pada Logam
Abstrak: Gambier (Uncaria gambier (Hunt.) Roxb) is a genus of flowering plant species in Rubiaceae family. Part of the gambier utilized is the sap which is extracted and then to be dried. Indonesia is the world largest exporter of gambier in the form of raw material. Gambier has major components namely catechin and tannin. Tanin can be used as rust deactivator. High tannin content in gambier may be used as anti-corrosion material thought corrosion is a problem in the industry. The aims of this study were to add value of raw gambier and to obtain the best product formulas that can remove the rust and protect metal from rust (antirust). Preliminary study was conducted by tannin extraction from raw gambier of Lima Puluh Kota regency, measuring the purity level of tannin which was extracted and proxymat analysis of raw gambier and tannin powder. The main study conducted by creating rust remover and anti-rust solution using two-factors completely randomized design consisting of composition factor of tannins and phosphoric acid. Tannin level used in the solution were 2,5%, 3,33% and 4,17%, while level of phosphoric acid were 2,9%, 5,8% and 8,7%. After obtaining the best composition of phosphoric acid and tannin, then the study continued by making ethanol concentration as variable which were 10%, 13% and 16%. Analysis test of solution effectiveness were rust lost of weight analysis and metal appearance analysis, while for anti-corrosion solution, the analysis of metal appearance analysis and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) were done. The tannin level obtained from the material used was 66,76%. Rusty iron soaked with rust converter formula successfully lost its rust content after six hours soaked. From lost weight analysis, it was known that the addition of tannin or phosphoric acid has a significant effect (α = 5 %) to decrease the weight of rust, but the interaction between tannin and phosphoric acid showed no significant results. The best concentration of tannin, phosphoric acid, and ethanol in the formula were 3,33%, 5,8% and 16% respectively. On the test with anti-rust effectiveness yielded that the metal plate was immersed in 3% NaCl for one day, had experienced corrosion while the previous metal plate coated with anti-rust solution had no corrosion on the surface. After one week, the metal plate was given a protective layer had corrosion in certain points, whereas the metal plate that was not given protective layer had corrosion on all over the surface. Results of Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis on a rusty metal plate coated with anti-rust solution for one week showed the presence of tannin shown by several functional groups namely OH, CO, C = C aromatic, and C = O and the reaction between tannin and metals at a wavelength of 1625 cm-1. The present of tanin indicated that gambier tannin could react well with metal so it can be used as anti corrosive product

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
