Abstract

Tea is one of the most popular beverages in the world. Produced from Camellia sinensis leaves, tea has been studied to provide health benefits due to the content of important metabolites. This study aimed to investigate the catechin contents, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities of Indonesian tea varieties, namely green tea, black tea, and white tea. Tea infusion was prepared by extracting 1 g of each sample into 10 mL of distilled water and incubated at 80 °C for 60 min. The catechin and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) contents of tea extracts were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Antioxidant activity was measured using the free radical method with 2,2-diphenyl-1-pycrylhidrazyl (DPPH), while antimicrobial activity was assesed using paper disc diffusion assay. The results indicated that green tea had the highest contents of catechin (646 ± 17.14 mg/L) and EGCG (997.8 ± 36.72 mg/L), and antioxidant activity with IC50 of 5.65 µg/mL. Furthermore, green tea and white tea extracts showed inhibitory activity against Gram-positive bacteria such as Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus whereas black tea had no activity against all bacterial strains tested. Generally, we concluded that white tea and green tea contributed to the higher content of catechins and exhibited strong antioxidant and antibacterial properties.

Abstract

Pectinases are a group of an enzyme that break down pectin, a polysaccharide that is found in plant cell walls. Today, the application of pectinolytic enzymes plays an important role in food technology for the maceration of fruits and vegetables, including for the extraction and clarification of juice. This research aimed to produce pectinase enzyme for clarifying of apple juice. A microbial culture was selected from cocoa bean fermentation samples and identified as Bacillus sp.. The highest enzyme activity was investigated after 48 hours of incubation. Citrus pectin as the carbon source and peptone as the nitrogen source was found as the best component for pectinase production. The optimum condition of pectinase activity was observed at pH 5, temperature 40 °C and the crude enzyme had the higher activity at one hour storage. Apple juice was treated with the enzyme at different concentrations (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 4%). Apple juice clarification was evaluated for its percent clarity and viscosity. The result showed that enzyme treatment at 4% in apple juice promoted juice clarification and decreased pH and viscosity. In conclusion, the quality of apple juice can be improved by enzymatic treatment using pectinase.

Abstract

Trichoderma is a well-known candidate to be promoted as cellulase producer for the hidrolysis of lignocellulose that contain in woody biomass. The number of trichodermal isolates in our laboratory collected from diverse ecosystem types in Indonesia increases significantly during the last 5 years. It is our aim to assess the cultures for its ability in producing cellulase. Sixty-six trichodermal isolates used in this experiment are obtained from Biotechnology Culture Collection (BTCC), Research Center for Biotechnology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI). The 31 isolates were isolated from District of Liwa (South Sumatra, Indonesia) and the 35 isolates from District of Maros (South Sulawesi, Indonesia). The isolates were screened qualitatively, 7 isolates from Liwa and 12 isolates from Maros showed cellulolytic activity. From the results of quantitative test, two strains (ID08-T004 and ID08-T63) showed the higher cellulolytic activity among the selected strains, 133.5 and 133.5 U/ml, respectively. These extracellular enzymes were characterized their temperature and pH optimum. The temperature optimum for both enzymes was the same, 50C, with activity 213.6 U/ml for enzyme extracted from ID08-T004 and 197.3 U/ml for enzyme from ID08-T0063. The pH optimum was pH 5 of ID08-T004 with activity 137.7 U/ml and pH 6 for ID08-T063 with activity 75.0 U/ml. The enzymes from ID08-T004 and ID08-T063 were stable in their temperature and pH optimal condition even after 90 minutes incubation with activity 179.0 U/ml and 86.7 U/ml, respectively. The enzyme stability was approximately 150 minutes for both enzymes in the temperature and pH optimum.
