The treatments included P1 (natural durian seed flour…
ABSTRACT Taro was one type of tuber that could be used as flour. The use of natural taro flour as a food product was still limited because it had deficiencies in its physicochemical properties. The method used to improve the physicochemical properties of natural taro flour was physical modification using the heat moisture treatment (HMT). The purpose of this study was to determine the phys…
ABSTRACT Herbal tea is a beverage made from the processing of flowers, bark, seeds, leaves, fruits, and roots of various plants that have benefits for the body. This study aims to determine the drying time of selected pedada fruit herbal tea on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of the herbal tea. The study was conducted experimentally using a completely randomised design…
ABSTRACT Sago starch has limited functional properties due to its low physicochemical characteristics and poor gelatinization at low temperatures, resulting in a longer cooking time. To improve its physicochemical properties, sago starch can be modified, one of which is through a dual modification method combining fermentation and heat-moisture treatment (HMT). This study aimed to obtain …
ABSTRACT Probiotics are live microorganisms that provide health benefits when consumed in sufficient amounts. Probiotics help maintain gut health by producing metabolites, such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), through the fermentation of undigested carbohydrates. One microorganism commonly used as a probiotic is Limosilactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295. Limosilactobacillus fermentum I…
ABSTRACT Probiotics are microorganisms that provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts by contributing to the balance of intestinal microflora. Limosilactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295, a local strain isolated from fermented buffalo milk (dadih), is known for its resilience in the gastrointestinal tract and its potential to support digestive function. This study aimed to e…
Sago (Metroxylon sagu) is a plant that has high starch potential, but the development of information in terms of DNA markers is still limited. This study aims to analyze and examine the diversity of sago accessions based on morphological markers, yield components, and molecular using the SCoT method. This study used a Split Plot Design, the main plot consisted of 3 locations (blocks D35, A38, a…
ABSTRACT Tea is known for is health benefits, hence the name herbal tea. One of the ingredients used in herbal tea is fragrant pandan leaves, which contain flavonoids, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, and polyphenols, which have antibacterial properties. This study aims to obtain selected treatments of fragrant pandan leaf herbal tea with stevia leaf ratio based on chemical and sensory qualit…
ABSTRACT Oil losses control was considered a key focus in crude palm oil (CPO) processing as it had a direct impact on production efficiency and company profitability. Excessive oil losses not only resulted in economic disadvantages due to the loss of valuable products but also indicated weaknesses in the production system, including machinery, processing methods, and workforce performance…
ABSTRACT Ready to eat sardines are processed foods consumed without further cooking. One of the producers of ready-to-eat sardines in Kampar Regency is Dapur Q Homemade, as the current packaging, a simple transparent plastic box with a basic label, did not meet food label standards and lacked consumer appeal. One of the strategies that can be used to attract consumers is to redesign the p…
