The national development is a way to make infrastructure growing faster. As we can see Surabaya have a national development like a highway construction from Mojokerto to Surabaya. Because of that make the use of cement in surabaya increased. Cement is a primary comodity to development. Many brand of cement making a competition beetween the brand cement in Surabaya. 1 option to win the competition is to make a good Distribution This research aim to analyze the effect of Distribution Intensity toward Customer Loyalty Cement Tiga Roda in Surabaya with Brand Image and Perceived Quality as intervening variable. This research will be conducted by distributing questionnaires to 100 respondents who use Cement with cement Tiga roda, Quantitative analysisi with path analysis were used for the technical analysis

Stabilitas Antosianin Jantung Pisang Kepok (Musa Paradisiaca L) terhadap Cahaya sebagai Pewarna Agar-Agar (Anthocyanin Stability Of Banana Bract (Musa Paradisiaca L) Toward Light For Jelly Colorant)

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan larutan pengekstrak jantung pisang kepok yang menghasilkan antosianin tertinggi, menentukan konsentrasi ekstrak jantung pisang kepok dalam agar-agar yang paling disukai panelis, menentukan laju degradasi warna agar-agar dengan pewarna jantung pisang kepok akibat penyinaran pada berbagai intensitas cahaya, dan menentukan intensitas cahaya maksimum yang masih dapat diterima oleh panelis berdasarkan uji hedonik setelah penyinaran. Antosianin jantung pisang kepok diekstraksi menggunakan pelarut asam tartarat, asam sitrat, dan asam asetat. Kadar antosianin diukur dengan metode perbedaan pH. Untuk uji hedonik digunakan agar-agar dengan kadar ekstrak jantung pisang kepok 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40% dan 50 %. Uji stabilitas warna dilakukan terhadap agar-agar dengan pewarna jantung pisang kepok 25%, dan disinari selama 10 jam dengan intensitas cahaya 780, 1.850, 2.214, dan 10.340 lux. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa larutan pengekstrak yang menghasilkan antosianin tertinggi adalah asam tartarat. Konsentrasi ekstrak jantung pisang kepok dalam agar-agar yang paling disukai panelis adalah 25 %. Laju degradasi warna agar-agar dengan pewarna jantung pisang kepok meningkat seiring dengan meningkatnya intensitas cahaya, dengan nilai k berkisar antara 0,0042 - 0,0096 AU/Jam. Agar-agar dengan pewarna jantung pisang kepok yang disinari dengan intensitas 780-2.214 lux selama 10 jam masih disukai panelis, sedangkan yang disinari dengan intensitas 10.340 sudah tidak disukai panelis

Future Burden and Costs of Smoking-Related Disease in the Netherlands: A Dynamic Modeling Approach

AbstractObjectivesIn this article, we explore the future health gain of different policy measures to reduce smoking prevalence: health education campaigns specifically aimed at keeping (young) people from starting to smoke, campaigns aimed at persuading smokers to quit, and tax measures.MethodsWe drew up different policy scenarios based on evaluations of several health promotion campaigns. Implementing these into the dynamic multistate models, we simulated smoking prevalence, loss of life-years, and costs for several decades into the next century.ResultsIn the short run, campaigns aimed at potential “quitters” appear to be most effective in terms of health gain. However, their effect fades away after several decades, while campaigns aimed at young “starters” or tax measures in the end yield a larger and more lasting decrease in smoking attributable disease burden.ConclusionDynamic modeling is very useful tool in calculating costs and effects of preventive public health measures
