This research focused on the natural durability of twenty one lesser known tropical wood species planted in West Java, Indonesia against subterranean termite (Coptotermes curvignathus). It was observed that both heartwood and sapwood of Kiara payung (Filicium decipiens); heartwoods of Nangka (Arthocarpus heterophyllus), Mahoni (Swietenia macrophylla) and Simpur (Dillenia grandifolia); and sapwood of Bungur (Lagerstroemia speciosa) were rated as resistant (natural durability class II) according to Indonesian standard SNI 01.7207.2006 (BSN 2006). Both heartwood and sapwood of Salam (Syzigium polyanthum), Pasang (Lithocarpus sundaicus), Bisbul (Diospyros discolor), Rukam (Flacourtia rukam) and Trembesi (Samanea saman); heartwood of Puspa (Schima walichii), Bungur, Tanjung (Mimusops elangi) and Angsana (Pterocarpus indicus) were rated as moderately resistant (natural durability class III). Both heartwood and sapwood of Sungkai (Peronema canescens), Pine (Pinus merkusii), Mangium (Acacia mangium) and Afrika (Maesopsis eminii); sapwoods of Mahoni, Puspa and Tanjung were rated as poorly resistant (natural durability class IV). Both heartwood and sapwood of Agathis (Agathis dammara), Durian (Durio zibethinus), Ki sampang (Evodia latifolia) and Jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba); sapwoods of Nangka and Angsana were rated as very poorly resistant (natural durability class V). This reserach showed that woods with lower resistance against C. curvignathus attack (natural durability class IV and V) tend to have lower termite mortality values compared to woods with higher resistance against C. curvignathus attack (natural durability class II and III). Results of the study will provide some valuable information on termite resistance of twenty one lesser known tropical wood species planted in Indonesia.

Merkusii pine wood (Pinus merkusii) was extensively planted throughout Indonesia, where it is only indigenous in northern Sumatera, by the Dutch during colonial times. The demand for this wood species, especially in the domestic market, has increased notably, despite its limited durability regarding decay resistance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence of juvenile and mature wood on merkusii pine and to analyze its radial features from pith to bark based on density, shrinkage, static bending in modulus of rupture and modulus of elasticity, fiber length, microfibril angle, and durability. A segmented modeling approach was used to find the juvenile-mature transition. The graveyard test was performed to characterize the termite resistance from pith to bark of merkusii pine. The maturations were estimated to start at radial increments of 15 cm from the pith by fiber length and of 12 cm from the pith by microfibril angle. The projected figures for the proportion of juvenile wood at breast height were around 65%. The results also indicate that the pine wood was $0.52g/cm^3$ in density, 1.45 in coefficient of anisotropy, which indicates its good stability, 7597 MPa in modulus of elasticity, and 63 MPa in modulus of rupture. Natural durability against subterranean termite of the merkusii pine wood was rated to be grade 4 to 0 from pith to bark. However, after being treated by Entiblu and Enborer preservatives, its rating increased to grade 10 to 9.

Objective: The conservation of Bali bulls, the Indonesian native breed of cattle, is crucial for cattle breeding in Indonesia. To guarantee the spread of Bali bulls through artificial insemination the quality of the frozen semen must be high. To this end, adding an extender material to semen that increases spermatozoa's survival during cryopreservation is important. Green tea extract (GTE) can be used as cryoprotectant because its high antioxidant activity can help avoid reactive oxygen species formation. Methods: Semen of five Bali bulls from the National Artificial Insemination Center at Singosari, Indonesia was collected routinely twice a week. First, fresh semen inspection was performed to determine the feasibility of using Bali bulls as animal samples. The extender used in this study was Tris-based egg yolk. The samples were divided into four treatments: T0, no GTE added to the extender; T1, 0.05 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender; T2, 0.10 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender; and T3, 0.15 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender. The semen freezing process was conducted according to standard procedures and sperm quality parameters, i.e., sperm motility, viability, abnormalities, and membrane integrity observed pre-freezing and post-thawing. Results: There were significant differences in total motility, progressive motility, viability, and integrity membrane of Bali bull sperm at both pre-freezing and post-thawing after adding GTE into the extender. In contrast, there were no differences in abnormalities among treatments. Conclusion: Adding GTE at a 0.15 mg into 100 mL Tris-based egg yolk extender can improve the quality of cryopreserved Bali bull sperm.

Hantaviruses are etiologic agents of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the world. Various hantaviruses were isolated from HFRS patients and several different rodent species in the world. Four hantavirus isolates from Indonesia and three isolates from Thailand among 89 Bandicotas captured in Yogyakarta, east region of Sumatra island, Indonesia and at Chiang Mai in Thailand during 1996 were made through several passages in Vero E6 cells. Viral genome M segment from two Indonesian isolates and three Thailand isolates were amplified using hantavirus generic primers of the M segment and cloned into pCRII vector. The genetic differences were analyzed by comparison of partial sequence of the M segment and antigenic differences were made by IFA. Nucleotide sequence homology of two isolates BC 8, BC 34 from Indonesia and two isolates thai 1322, thai 1330 to Seoul virus was 99% and 96%, respectively, but Thai 1164 was 80%Thai 1164 strain has shown 95% homology to Thai 749 virus. In conclusion it is indicated that two different serotype hantaviruses, Seoul and Thailand, are cocirculating among Bandicota in Thailand, in contrast Seoul serotype virus is circulating in Indonesia.

최근 인도네시아에서 인공조림중인 8수종 목재자원의 효율적 이용방안 모색을 위해 해부학적 특성을 조사하였다. 침엽수종인 Damar와 Sumatran pine의 생장륜은 뚜렷하지 않았고 Sumatran pine은 수지구가 존재하였으나 Damar는 수지구가 관찰되지 않았다. Damar는 편백형과 삼나무형 벽공을 보였고, Sumatran pine은 창상벽공과 소나무형벽공의 분야벽공형태를 보였다. 두 수종 모두 $3,000{\mu}m$ 이하로 다소 짧은 가도관의 길이를 보였고, 방사조직은 주로 단열방사조직으로서 Sumatran pine의 경우 방추형 방사조직이 관찰되었다. 활엽수 수종은 모두 산공재였고 Afrika와 Simpur Batu는 고립관공, Angsana는 집단관공, Mahoni는 2~4열의 방사복합관공, Mindi와 Trembesi에서는 2~3열의 방사복합관공과 익상유조직, 연합익상유조직이 다른 수종에 비해 뚜렷하게 관찰되었다. Afrika, Mahoni와 Simpur Batu는 평복세포와 1~2열의 직립세포로 구성된 이성방사조직이, Angsana, Mindi와 Trembesi는 평복세포로 이루어진 동성방사조직이 관찰되었다. Simpur batu는 높이 1 mm를 초과하는 3~6열의 다열 방사조직 폭을 보였으며, 이외 5개 수종은 1~3열의 방사조직 폭을 보였다. 단위면적($mm^2$)당 관공의 수는 Angsana와 Simpur Batu가 다른 수종에 비해 많았으며 특히 Simpur Batu가 가장 많게 나타났다. 모든 수종의 목섬유길이는 수심부에서 수피로 갈수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, Simpur Batu가 가장 긴 섬유의 길이를, Angsana와 Trembesi가 가장 짧은 섬유길이를 나타냈다.

본 연구는 국산 솜대와 인도네시아산 TALI를 원료로 하여 제조한 Zephyr의 기본조직특성을 SEM관찰 및 화상분석법을 이용하여 조사하였다. SEM관찰의 결과, 국산 솜대 Zephyr 의 형태는 유관속초를 구성하는 후벽섬유의 세포벽이 두껍고 세포내강이 거의 없으며 조직이 치밀하였다. 세포간층의 분리가 어렵기 때문에 유관속초간의 집단적인 할렬이 두드러졌고 할렬형태가 균일하지 않았다. 이에 비해 인도네시아산 TALI Zephyr의 형태는 유관속초를 구성하는 후벽섬유의 세포벽이 얇고 세포내강이 크며 세포간극이 많아 세포간층의 분리가 쉬웠으며 가늘고 균일하게 할렬되었다. 화상분석법으로 두 죽종의 횡단면상의 유관속초용과 이들을 구성하는 후벽섬유의 세포벽율을 조사한 결과, 국산 솜대의 유관속초율은 인도네시아산 TALI보다 낮았지만, 후벽섬유 세포벽률은 더 높았다. 이상의 결과로 국산 솜대와 인도네시아산 TALI는 유관속초를 구성하는 후벽섬유의 양과 분포양식의 차이에 의해 제조된 Zephyr의 형상에 차이가 있음을 알 수가 있었다.
