THE utilization OF JUICE Morinda citrifolia AND Averrhoa bilimbi AS A LATEX EMULSIFIER AGENT
The area of rubber land in Indonesia currently reaches 3,672,213 ha which can produce 3,229,861 tons/year. The price of rubber in Indonesia is currently cheap because of low-quality latex. The low quality of latex is caused by the large production costs, one of which is the price of latex clotting material which is relatively expensive. Therefore, this studied aims to find a good alternative to latex coagulant but at low cost. Latex clumping material used in this research were noni juice and star fruit. The treatment in this study used noni juice and star fruit juice concentration of 5 ml, 10 ml, 15 ml, and 20 ml, respectively. The results showed the weight of latex with noni emulsifying agents increased by 45.58% while the administration of star fruit juice was not much different, amounting to 45.70%. However, the final weight of latex given by the emulsifying agent in the form of star fruit was higher than Noni with the difference at the highest weight reached 4.23 grams. The fastest latex clumping time at 20 ml star fruit concentration is 1.18 minutes. Based on research results noni juice and star fruit potential as a latex clot.The area of rubber land in Indonesia currently reaches 3.672.213 ha which can produce 3.229.861 tons/year.

The Kualitas Kacang Tanah (Arachis hypogeae L.) Kefir dengan Variasi Konsentrasi Starter Ragi dan Lama Fermentasi
One of the fermented milk products, namely kefir, is increasingly popular because it has many health benefits. Peanut juice has a high enough protein content that it can be used as a substitute for animal milk. The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of peanut kefir with variations in the concentration of ragi tape inoculum and fermentation time. This research method used 3 variations in the concentration of tape yeast (1, 2 and 4%) and long fermentation time (24, 48 and 72 hours). The results showed that the highest total LAB was in 4% ragi tape inoculum with a fermentation time of 24 hours (4.4x108 cells/mL) and the lowest was in 4% tape yeast inoculum with a fermentation time of 72 hours (9.8x107 cells/mL) and total yeast between 1x104 cells/mL - 3x105 cells/mL) and alcohol produced <1%. Total acid obtained between 6% - 17.6%. The increase in total acid is proportional to the decrease in pH. The pH of the peanut kefir medium was between 3.44 - 4.12. Peanut kefir with tape yeast inoculum meets the standard requirements for fermented milk and can replace milk kefir.Salah satu produk fermentasi susu yaitu kefir penggunaannya semakin popular karena memiliki banyak manfaat bagi kesehatan. Susu nabati yang berasal dari kacang tanah memiliki kadar protein cukup tinggi dapat digunakan sebagai substitusi susu hewani. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui kualitas kefir kacang tanah berupa kadar total asam, pH, kadar alcohol, total bakteri asam laktat dan total kamir dengan variasi konsentrasi inokulum ragi tape dan lama fermentasi. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan 3 variasi konsentrasi inokulum ragi tape (1%, 2% dan 4%) dan lama waktu fermentasi (24 jam, 48 jam dan 72 jam). Total bakteri asam laktat dan khamir dihitung dengan metode angka lempeng total (ALT). Total asam diamati dengan titrasi, pengukuran pH menggunakan alat pH meter begitu juga dengan pengukuran alcohol dengan alat alkoholmeter. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Total BAL terbanyak pada inokulum ragi tape 4 % dengan waktu fermentasi 24 jam 4,4 x 108 sel/mL dan terendah pada inokulum ragi tape 4 % dengan waktu fermentasi 72 jam 9,8 x 107 sel/mL dan total khamir antara 1 x 104 sel/mL – 3 x 105 sel/mL serta alkohol yang dihasilkan < 1%. Total asam didapatkan antara 6% (inokulum ragi tape 1% dengan 24 jam fermentasi) - 17,6 % (inokulum ragi tape 4% dengan 72 jam fermentasi). Peningkatan total asam sebanding dengan penurunan pH. pH media susu kefir kacang tanah antara 4,12 (inokulum ragi tape 1% dengan 24 jam fermentasi) dan 3,44 (inokulum ragi tape 4% dengan 72 jam fermentasi)
Truss Morphometric and Meristic Characters of Male and Female Donkey Croaker (Pennahia anea (Bloch 1793)) Taken from Asemdoyong Auction Center Pemalang, Central Java
Pennahia anea is among of the demersal fish landed at Asemdoyong Fish Auction Centre, Pemalang. P. anea doesn\u27t show sexual dimorphism, so that other characters are needed to differentiate male and female individuals, i.e. truss morphometric and meristic characters. Previous studies have shown that truss morphometric and meristic can differentiate between male and female individuals. This study aims to describe the morphometric and meristic truss characters and determine the truss morphometrically and meristic characters that distinguish between males and females of Pennahia anea. The research used a survey method with a purposive random sampling technique. Male and female individuals of P. anea were examined based on their meristic and truss morphometric characters. The data were analyzed statistically using Mann Whitney non-parametric test. The result proved that male and female were significantly different in seven out of the 31 truss distances. Male individuals had a larger size than female individuals in three truss distances. In contrast, the male had a smaller size than the female individuals in four out of seven truss distances that distinguish both sexualities. The soft fin radius of the ventral fin was significantly different between male and female of P. anea. It could be concluded that male and female individuals of Pennahia anea have different truss distances and meristic characters with seven truss distances and one meristic character are differen

Kepadatan tertinggi berada di Bulan Juli 2019 dan kepadatan terendah berada di Bulan Agustus 2018
In Vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Zodia (Evodia suaveolens) Leaf Extract on Pathogenic Agents Dragon Fruit Plant
The use of antimicrobials from plant extracts has not been used optimally to control pathogenic agents in dragon fruit plants. The purpose of this research was to determine the antimicrobial activity of zodia (Evodia suaveolens) leaf extracts on pathogenic agents of dragon fruit plants in vitro. The research method is laboratory research with Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The antimicrobial concentrations of zodia (E. suaveolens) leaf extract used six types including 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% with four replications. The research sample was the leaf of zodia (E. suaveolens), Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Fusarium oxysporum strain Malang. Test the antimicrobial activity of zodia (E. suaveolens) leaf extracts on the growth of P. aeruginosa and F. oxysporum using the disc-diffusion method and wells method. The research instrument was used the observation sheet of the diameter of inhibition zone indicated by the clear zone. The diameter of inhibition zone data were analyzed using the One Way ANOVA test. The results showed that the antimicrobial activity of zodia (E. suaveolens) leaf extract significantly inhibited the growth of P. aeruginosa and F. oxysporum (P <0.05). These results recommend zodia (E. suaveolens) leaf extract as an antimicrobial agent for dragon fruit plant pathogens
