ABSTRACT Sago plants are a type of palm that can serve as a carbohydrate source due to their high starch production. However, using natural sago starch in food products and its processed derivatives remains limited. Natural sago starch has certain limitations in its physicochemical characteristics. These limitations can be addressed through dual modification, specifically fermentation and auto…
ABSTRACT Tubers in Indonesia are a source of carbohydrates after cereals, and have many types, one of which is purple sweet potato. Purple sweet potato has a complex nutritional content so that it has the potential to be made into various forms of processed food, one of which is jelly candy. Jelly candy generally adds fruit juice or essense in adding aroma, color, and distinctive taste and…
ABSTRACT Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer health benefits to the host if consumed in sufficient quantities. The activity of bile salt deconjugation and inhibition of pathogenic bacteria needs to be carried out on Limosilactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 and Pediococcus pentosaceus strain 2397 with and without CMF hydrogel encapsulation from oil palm fronds. This study was ca…
ABSTRACT Dry noodles are popular in Indonesia and primarily made from wheat flour. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in using sago starch as a glutenfree food alternative. Heat moisture treatment (HMT) can modify sago starch properties, depending on processing conditions like moisture content. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of varying moisture content during HMT …
ABSTRACT Marshmallow is a soft candy with a soft, chewy texture and a distinctive sweet taste. Natural coloring, such as rosella flower petal extract, is expected to provide good marshmallow characteristics. This research aimed to determine the best marshmallow treatment by adding rosella flower petal extract to its physicochemical and sensory characteristics. This research was carried out…
ABSTRACT Sengon wood is one of the fast-growing wood species that is widely utilized. However, it has low natural durability and is susceptible to termite attacks. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of papaya leaf extract as a natural wood preservative against termite attacks on sengon wood and to determine the optimal concentration for enhancing its durability. The experiment …
ABSTRACT This research aims to develop an intelligent system capable of detecting and repelling wild boar pests in plantations. Wild boars are known as agricultural crop destroyers, often causing significant losses for farmers in Indonesia, especially in areas close to forests and mountains. With the increasing need to protect crops such as corn, bananas, and coffee, technology emerges as a cr…
ABSTRACT As population and economic growth in Indonesia increases, so does the demand for energy. For this reason, renewable energy is needed as the right solution to meet energy needs in a sustainable manner. Indonesia is geographically located in a tropical climate so that Indonesia can utilize PLTS as a source of new renewable energy. PLTS utilizes solar energy which will be converted into e…
ABSTRACK This research aimed to conduct a comprehensive comparative performance analysis between a newly developed single-axis solar tracker system and a conventional static solar panel system. The increasing global energy demand underscores the critical need for optimizing renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, which faces inherent challenges due to the sun's dynamic position thr…
ABSTRACT The main issue in conventional single-phase diode rectifier systems is the low power factor and high total harmonic distortion (THD) of the input current, especially under dynamic load conditions.
