Aplikasi Edible Coating Pati Talas Untuk Mempertahankan Sifat Fisik Dan Kimia Buah Jambu Biji Kristal Potong
ABSTRACT
Crystal guava is a type of climacteric fruit. Currently, crystal guava is widely sold on the market, providing fresh cut fruit. Cut fruit has a short shelf life and is generally only packaged in plastic, therefore an edible coating is provided to extend the shelf life of cut crystal guava fruit during storage at room temperature. The aim of this research was to obtain the best concentration of taro starch as an edible coating material based on the physical and chemical properties of cut crystal guava fruit during 10 days of storage. The treatments in this study were taro starch concentrations, namely P0 (control), P1 (1% taro starch), P2 (2% taro starch), P3 (3% taro starch), P4 (4% taro starch). Data were obtained using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and followed by Duncan's multiple range test (DMRT) at the 5% level. Observation were conducted every two days over ten days storage period. The best treatment for taro starch concentration in Edible Coating crystal guava fruit pieces is a taro starch concentration of 4%. Treatment with 4% taro starch concentration can maintain the physical and chemical properties of cut crystal guava until six days of storage with the parameters that had been analyzed, namely weight loss 18.93%, total soluble solids 8.15%, vitamin C 16.71 mg/ 100g, color descriptive test 2.50 (yellowish white), color hedonic test 2.53 (somewhat like), hardness descriptive test 2.57 (hard), and hedonic hardness test 2.59 (somewhat like).
