Interdependence of Influence between Risk Management Behavior, MSME Characteristics, and Overconfidence on Business Sustainability: (A case study in Indonesia)

More than 50% of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia run their business for reasons of livelihood, while 30% do this since MSMEs are profitable, and may support their living costs. This study aims to determine and analyze the influence of risk management behavior, characteristics of MSMEs through overconfidence on MSME business sustainability, and consequently MSMEs as a source of livelihood. The result of this study indicates that risk management behavior has a significant positive effect on overconfidence, while the characteristics of MSMEs have a significant negative effect on that. In turn, it’s shown that overconfidence had a positive and significant effect on the sustainability of MSMEs. However, the characteristics of MSMEs and risk management behavior had no significant positive effect on the sustainability of MSMEs. These results indicate also that MSME entrepreneurs’ overconfidence plays a major role in managing their business, which could be considered by the local government and/or the central government in determining MSME policies, such as placements to sell which are given and regulated by each local government considering the accessibility of sellers and buyers as well as their safety.    Cite this paper: Jaluanto, Tyoso S.

Teratogenic effects and maternal toxicity sprague dawley rats fed Ficusdeltoidea leaves aqueous extract in late gestation

Ficusdeltoidea have many beneficial uses however no report has been documented on the possible teratogenic effects if consumed during pregnancy. A study was conducted to observe the effects of feeding Ficusdeltoidea leaves aqueous extract (FDLAE) to rats during the late gestation period. Thirty pregnant Sprague Dawley rats were divided equally into five groups: positive control (retinylpalmitate in corn oil), negative control (only water), vehicle control (corn oil), low dose (5g/kg/day) and high dose (10g/kg/day) of FDLAE. Dams were sacrificed at term and their uteri removed by Caesarean section. Livers, placentae and kidneys of dams were subjected to histopathological examination. Fetuses were stained with Adlizarin Red S to observe skeletal malformations. The results showed that the maternal liver and kidneys were significantly (p<0.05) affected in FDLAE treatment and positive control groups, however only the placenta was affected in the positive control group. Mortality of dams and numerous skeletal abnormalities of fetuses were also observed in FDLAE treatment groups. We suggest that feeding FDLAE to pregnant dams during the late gestation period cause teratogenic effects and contribute to maternal toxicity

Toksisitas Sub-kronik Buah Pare (Momordica Charantia L.) Pada Tikus Putih

The fruits of Momordica charantia L. (pare) are widely used as a traditional medicine for oxyuriasis, fever, cough and diabetes. The subchronic toxicity test was carried out on the aquaous extract of the fruits of Momordica charantia L. The test was done on 72 female rats of LMR strain for 3 months with a method developed by the Pharmaceutical Research and Development Centre of the National Institute of Health Research and Development, Jakarta. The rat organs examined were heart, lung, liver, kidney, stomach, muscle, pancreas, intestine and spleen. The results showed that there are no negative effects on the rat organs examined at a dose up to 200 mg/100 g body weight administered orally for 3 months

Analysis Of Paper Defect Reduction In Paper Industry With Lean Six Sigma Approach

The high number of the defective product that occur in each company can affects the quality. PT. X is a company engaged in the pulp and paper product. Lean approach does not allow for waste, in this case is defective product. Product defects that often arise in this industry are holes paper, dirty paper, folded, size variations and foreign contamination. The purpose of this study is to identify the causative factor in the production department of a product defect based on six sigma phase and the solution that can be taken to reduce the number of defects in the production department based. The phases of six sigma are define, measure, analyze, improvement and control. The results of calculation of the value of sigma of perforated paper for two months was 3.45 and 3.47. Dirty paper has a sigma value of 4.2 and 4.5. The sigma level indicates that the performance of the productionis above average Indonesian company. The costumer complaint coming into the company for folded paper, size variations and foreign contamination has decreased from 2010 to 2011. But it has not reached the six sigma target. So that, the company needs to be improved using the Lean tool that is Kaizen Blitz

Laporan Pendahuluan Mengenai Pendarahan Perirenal dan Metropati pada Gerbil (Meriones Unguiculatus) Disebabkan Mikotoksin Penicilium Viridicatum

Twenty four female gerbils were alloted into 4 groups and each group consisted of 6 animals. Group A was fed with standard diet used as control. Groups B, C and D were fed with diets respectively containing 2,5 %, 5 % and 10 % concentrations of dried ground cultures of Penicillium viridicatum. Three gerbils from each group were killed at the end of 5 and 12 week feeding period respectively. No clinical sign was observed in test groups, other than decrease of body weight. Gross lesions were observed in animals which were killed.at the end of 12 week feeding period. Lesions included hydropic degeneration, hemorrhages, and necrosis of perirenal fatty tissue. The renal parenchyma showed the feature of toxicosis. Microscopic lesions of degeneration, hemorrhages, necrosis and inflammatory cells infiltration of perirenal tissue. The kidney showed focal dilatation and collapse of tubulus

Percobaan Enteromegali pada Mencit dan Gerbil (Meriones Unguiculatus) Disebabkan Sulfas Atropin dan Chlorpromazine Hcl

Seventy nine mice and 18 gerbils were used in this experiment. The Chlorpromazine Group con­sisted of 39 mice and 12 gerbils. Each animal was injected with Chlorpromazine HQ 50 mg per kilogram body weight. Injections were administered twice a week for a period of 10 weeks. Clinical signs were only found in mice. Abdominal distention was transient in few animals and persisted in few others until the experiment was terminated. Few animals, without signs of meteorismus, developed priapismus and semenal discharge. The gut weight expressed in percentage of the total body weight of the enteromegalic mice was above 13 %, whereas that of the control animals varied between 6.3 % and 12.4 %. One gerbil developed segmental hydrosalpinx.Forty mice and 6 gerbils in the Sulfas Atropin Group were treated similarly as those of the Chlor­promazine Group, but injected with Atropini Sulfas daily at the rate of 0.330 mg to 0.660 mgper kilo­gram body weight for 14 or 20 days. Abdominal distention and/or enteromegaly did not occur at the termination of the experiment
