Safe Food Handling Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Food Handlers in Hospital Kitchen
Hospital food hygiene plays an important role to patient's health. Studies proved that improper practices and lack of knowledge are contributing factors of foodborne diseases. This study was conducted to determine knowledge, attitude and practice of hospital safe food handling in Semarang, Central Java. A cross sectional study was conducted in two general hospitals' kitchen. Data were collected from 60 food handlers through validated questionnaire. Respondents were grouped into two categories: a. Teaching Hospital, and b.Non-teaching Hospital. Data were collected in February-April 2017. Most of food handlers (80%) were graduated from vocational senior high school (SMK). Respondent's age were 28-37 years (36.7%) in average. Most of respondent‟s work experience (85%) was less than 15 years. The result showed that more than 80% of food handlers have good knowledge in safe food handling procedures, good attitude (66%) and good practices (90%). There was no significant difference of knowledge, attitude and practices between two groups. Results strongly emphasize the need of food hygiene training of hospital food handlers. It also suggest that non food handlers such as nurse or kitchen supervisor should involved in the training. Some aspects of food handlers' safety behavior need to be emphasized

The zero exemplar distance problem
Given two genomes with duplicate genes, \textsc{Zero Exemplar Distance} is
the problem of deciding whether the two genomes can be reduced to the same
genome without duplicate genes by deleting all but one copy of each gene in
each genome. Blin, Fertin, Sikora, and Vialette recently proved that
\textsc{Zero Exemplar Distance} for monochromosomal genomes is NP-hard even if
each gene appears at most two times in each genome, thereby settling an
important open question on genome rearrangement in the exemplar model. In this
paper, we give a very simple alternative proof of this result. We also study
the problem \textsc{Zero Exemplar Distance} for multichromosomal genomes
without gene order, and prove the analogous result that it is also NP-hard even
if each gene appears at most two times in each genome. For the positive
direction, we show that both variants of \textsc{Zero Exemplar Distance} admit
polynomial-time algorithms if each gene appears exactly once in one genome and
at least once in the other genome. In addition, we present a polynomial-time
algorithm for the related problem \textsc{Exemplar Longest Common Subsequence}
in the special case that each mandatory symbol appears exactly once in one
input sequence and at least once in the other input sequence. This answers an
open question of Bonizzoni et al. We also show that \textsc{Zero Exemplar
Distance} for multichromosomal genomes without gene order is fixed-parameter
tractable if the parameter is the maximum number of chromosomes in each genome.Comment: Strengthened and reorganize
DETERMINISTIC AND STOCHASTIC DENGUE EPIDEMIC MODEL: EXPLORING THE PROBABILITY OF EXTINCTION
Dengue, a vector-borne disease, threatens the life of humans in tropical and subtropical regions. Hence, the dengue transmission dynamics need to be studied. An important aspect to be investigated is the probability of extinction. In this paper, deterministic and stochastic dengue epidemic models with two-age classes have been developed and analyzed, and the probability of extinction has been determined. For the stochastic approach, we use the Continuous-Time Markov Chain model. The results show that vaccination of adult individuals leads to a lower number of adult infected individuals. Furthermore, the results showed that a higher number of initial infections causes a low probability of dengue extinction. Furthermore, factors contributing to an increase in the infection-related parameters have to be minimized to increase the potential reduction of dengue cases
Sintesis Bahan Olah Kompon Karet Secara Reaksi Vulkanisasi Dari Perpaduan Minyak Nabati Semi Pengering Dan Pengering
Faktis cokelat merupakan salah satu bahan kimia karet terpenting yang berfungsi sebagai bahan bantu olah kompon karet. Mutu faktis cokelat dipengaruhi oleh pemilihan jenis minyak nabati sebagai bahan baku utama, konsentrasi sulfur, dan suhu reaksi. Reaksi vulkanisasi antara minyak nabati dengan sulfur pada pembentukan faktis cokelat umumnya dilakukan pada suhu 140-190oC. Minyak nabati harus memiliki bilangan iod yang tinggi minimal 80-110 g iod/100 g minyak. Pada penelitian ini dipelajari peluang pembuatan faktis cokelat dari kombinasi minyak jarak kastor dengan minyak nabati lain golongan semi pengering (sawit, jarak pagar) dan pengering (kedelai, jagung, kanola) pada rasio minyak sebesar 80 : 20 dengan penambahan 24 bsm sulfur dan 150oC. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa faktis cokelat dapat disintesis dari kombinasi antar minyak nabati tersebut pada kondisi reaksi vulkanisasi yang telah ditetapkan. Berdasarkan hasil karakterisasi diperoleh faktis cokelat dengan tingkatan mutu setara dengan faktis cokelat komersial kelas 3. Kombinasi minyak nabati yang menghasilkan faktis cokelat terbaik diperoleh dari campuran antara minyak jarak kastor dengan minyak sawit.

Non-Commutative Gauge Theories and the Cosmological Constant
We discuss the issue of the cosmological constant in non-commutative
non-supersymmetric gauge theories. In particular, in orbifold field theories
non-commutativity acts as a UV cut-off. We suggest that in these theories
quantum corrections give rise to a vacuum energy \rho, that is controlled by
the non-commutativity parameter \theta, \rho ~ 1/theta^2 (only a soft
logarithmic dependence on the Planck scale survives). We demonstrate our claim
in a two-loop computation in field theory and by certain higher loop examples.
Based on general expressions from string theory, we suggest that the vacuum
energy is controlled by non-commutativity to all orders in perturbation theory.Comment: 11 pages, RevTex. 4 eps figures. v2: Typos corrected. To appear in

Closed Strings Tachyons and Non-Commutative Instabilities
We observe a relation between closed strings tachyons and one-loop
instabilities in non-supersymmetric non-commutative gauge theories. In
particular we analyze the spectra of type IIB string theory on C^3/Z_N orbifold
singularities and the non-commutative field theory that lives on D3 branes
located at the singularity. We find a surprising correspondence between the
existence or not of one-loop low-momentum instabilities in the non-commutative
field theory and the existence or not of tachyons in the closed string twisted
sectors. Moreover, the relevant piece of the non-commutative field theory
effective action is suggestive of an exchange of closed string modes. This
suggests that non-commutative field theories retain some information about the
dynamics of the underlying string configuration. Finally, we also comment on a
possible relation between closed string tachyon condensation and field theory
tachyon condensation.Comment: 27 pages, Latex. v2: Comment about anomalies and refs. added. Version
