Pemanfaatan Pektin Dari Tanaman Wortel Untuk Pasta Gigi Anak-Anak

---

ABSTRACT
Pectin was a complex polysaccharide derivative compound that was abundant in vegetables and fruits, including oranges, apples, bananas, carrots, nuts, and garlic. Pectin had the ability to form a gel, making it crucial in the production of various food products such as jam, jelly, fruit preparations for yogurt, fruit juice, and other products. The objective of this study was to determine the yield and extract the pectin content present in carrots and study the influence of adding different amounts of pectin to toothpaste formulations, comparing them to the SNI 12-3524-1995 standard. In this study, the researchers varied the concentration of pectin in the toothpaste formulations, namely 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, and 4%. The researchers also conducted tests on pectin characteristics, including yield, moisture content, equivalent weight, and methoxyl content, as well as tests on toothpaste formulation characteristics, including organoleptic evaluation, pH testing, and spreadability testing. The results of this research showed that the weight of pectin obtained from 13 grams of dried carrot powder was 1.17 grams, with a yield of 9%, moisture content of 6.7%, equivalent weight of 717 , and methoxyl content of 9.3%. The toothpaste testing results indicated that the pH values for the respective concentrations of 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, and 4% were 7.63, 7.7, 7.26, and 7.06. The organoleptic evaluation for each variation showed a thick texture, light brown and brown color, and a mint and mild mint aroma. The spreadability test results for the respective concentrations of 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, and 4% were 3.1 cm, 3 cm, 2.8 cm, and 2.8 cm. Increasing the concentration of carrot pectin in the toothpaste formulation did not significantly affect the pH value, color, aroma, and texture of the formulation. However, as the pectin concentration increased, the spreadability value of the toothpaste decreased.
Keywords: Pectin, Toothpaste, Carrot, Yield.
