Respon Konsumen Terhadap Pemberitaan Ditemukannya Formalin Pada Produk Pangan Olahan (Consumers Response Towards News of the Formalin USAge on Processed Food Product)
The negative news about small or home industries food production that was published bymass media has a large impact on it's marketing. This research was conducted to explain theattitude and consumers behaviour change toward food that was issued of formalin USAge topreserving. This descriptive research was conducted with survey to 42 households in urban,50 households in sub urban, and 26 householeds in rural territory. The results showed thatnegative news of formalin USAge to food preserving decreased the consumer's believe towardsthe food safety, the tendency to consume, rose the consumer buying selectivity and decreasedthe consumer buying intensity. The consumer's believe towards the food safety, the tendencyto consume, the consumer buying intensity will increased after the publishing of promotifnews such as public figure consuming that food, but the buying selectivity still arose. Thepositive news of no formalin USAge on food that was published increased again theconsumer's believe towards the food safety, the tendency to consume, the consumer buyingselectivity and the consumer buying intencity but not recovere
Science, Media and Policy Collaboration in Practice: Bird Flu Case in Bali, Indonesia
This paper discusses how science (scientist) and policy (government) collaborate on the bird flu case in Bali Indonesia and the importance of public participation in dealing with the case. It is concluded that the collaboration between science and policy in the bird flu case in Bali Indonesia has not well practiced. There is a gap and conflict between them because they have different analytical paradigm, interest, and point of view. Public participation is very important because it can encourage them to set up quick response mechanism and increase public awareness of the danger of the virus. So they can stop the spread of the virus by themselve

COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN GIVING CIPROFLOXACIN SINGLE DOSE WITH DIVIDED DOSES CIPROFLOXACIN ON THE TREATMENT GONORRHOEA EMERGENCE OF RESISTANCE
Recently encountered the resistance to the use of single-dose ciprofloxacin as therapy gonorrhea, so it mustconsider the use of other drugs as an alternative. This study aims to find out the effectiveness of the drug ciprofloxacindivided doses (2 X 500 mg. for five days) to prevent gonorrhea disease resistance. From the results of this study can beseen, that the administration of Ciprofloxacin therapy divided doses (2 X 500 mg per day up to 5 days) for patientsurethriris gonorhoea, it shows significantly better results when compared with single dose of 1500 mg
Factors Affecting to Consumers\u27 Attitude Towards Halal Label on Nugget and Sausage Packaging: a Case Study on Housewives at One Residential in YOGYAKARTA City
Halal status of meat products is a credence attribute which is not visible and cannot be verified by consumers. Therefore, halal label is an important cue for consumers about the halal meat product. This study aimed to measure the consumers\u27 attitude and to clarify the demographic and psychological factors that affected the consumers\u27 attitude towards halal label on nugget and sausage packaging. The data of this study was collected in 2016 at one residential in Yogyakarta City. Meanwhile, respondents of 50 Muslim housewives were selected through simple random to fill out the self-administered questionnaire. To measure consumers\u27 information was used a 5 Likertscale of statement. While a binary logistic regression model was employed to analyse the effects of the demographic and psychological factors on consumers\u27 attitude. The results show that respondents of housewife perceived the label of council of certification, Arabic script of halal, and food ingredient could very well indicate the halal nature of nugget and sausage. Furthermore, respondents of housewife tend to use them to investigate the halal nature. The demographic factor which affected the variation of consumers\u27 attitude towards halal label was households\u27 expenditure of food, meanwhile the psychological factor which affected the variation of consumers\u27 attitude towards halal label was family habit of purchasing halal foods. Based on this results can be concluded that the respondents of housewife strongly believe on halal label on nugget and sausage packaging but they do not examine thoroughly. Respondent of housewife\u27s attitude toward halal label improved due to an increasing on households\u27 expenditure on food and a well family habituation
Cyanide Reduction in Cassava Root Products Through Processing and Selection of Cultivars in Relation to Food Safety
About 47% of cassava production in Indonesia was used for human consumption, both as a staple food and snacks. In terms of food safety, the natural presence of cyanogenic glucosides in cassava roots is of concern as they may release free cyanide (HCN), which is highly toxic. At high levels, it may cause acute poisoning, leading to death as well as iodine deficiency and neurological disorders for long-term ingestion. The cyanogenic glucosides content in different cultivars of cassava varied from 1 up to >1,000 mg HCN/kg fresh weight, while 10 mg HCN/kg dry weight was considered to be the safe level for consumption. Various processing methods were reported to be effective in reducing the cyanide content in cassava products. A decrease of 25-50% was observed during overnight soaking, while it was much higher (81%) when subsequent drying and milling into flour was performed. During boiling, steaming, deep-frying, baking and fermentation, a reduction of 45-50%, 17%, 13%, 14% and 38-84% was noted, respectively. Crushing the fresh roots and subsequent sun-drying was the most effective method with >95% of HCN removal. It suggests that low cyanide content of cassava cultivars (mostly sweet/local varieties) are obviously required for direct consumption purposes. This is particularly important for traditional food processors to be selective in obtaining fresh cassava as raw material and choosing proper processing methods. While for gaplek, starch, flour, and mocaf purposes, where washing, soaking, shredding, fermentation, pressing, drying and milling were involved, the bitter cultivars (mostly improved varieties) with relatively high cyanide content can be used. Therefore, breeding selection for cassava cultivars with low cyanide content and high potential yield is essentially needed. Selected improved varieties and promising clones seem to meet this criteria. Regulation for food industries to provide information on cyanide level in cassava food labels would also protect the consumers and promote safe cassava foods
