Abstract

Porang (Amorphophallus oncophillus) tubers contain multifunctional water-soluble heteropolysaccharides, called glucomannan. Therefore, the quality of porang tuber chips is highly depending on its glucomannan content and physical appearance. The presence of considerable amount of carotene, polyphenoloxidases and tannins in these tubers may cause browning of flour during processing. The purpose of this research was to study the effect of enzymatic anti-browning agent (sodium metabisulfite) concentrations (2, 5 and 7.5%) w/w) and immersion times (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes) on the degree of whiteness. An increase in the concentration of anti-browning agent solution up to 5% w/w caused significant increase the degree of whiteness of porang flour and quality of porang flour. However, further increase in the concentration of anti-browning agent solution exhibited reduction in the degree of whiteness and quality of porang flour. In addition, a longer immersion time also resulted in a higher degree of whiteness of porang tuber chips. The best browning prevention conditions were through immersion of porang tuber chips in 7.5% w/w sodium metabisulfite solution for 150 minutes, from which a highest degree of whiteness was achieved (81.99).

Abstract

Bioethanol is one of the most promising and eco-friendly alternatives to fossil fuels, which is produced from renewable sources. Bioethanol can be produced from different kinds of raw materials. Conventional crops such as corn and sugarcane are unable to meet the global demand of bioethanol production due to their primary value of food and feed. Agricultural wastes are cost effective, renewable and abundant. To do this, very high gravity (VHG) fermentation which involves use of medium containing high sugar concentration(>250g/L) must be implemented to achieve high ethanol concentration. However, VHG fermentation leads to significant stress for Saccharomyces cerevisiae due to osmotic pressure at the beginning of the fermentation and high ethanol content at the end. At this review, rice straw is the most abundant waste compared to the other major wastes and potentially produce 205 billion liters bioethanol per year, which is the highest among these four mentioned agricultural wastes.

Abstract

discoloration is the result of the action of endogenous polyphenol oxidase (enzymatic browning) followed by spontaneous polymerization of quinonoid compounds with other food components. Currently, the use of sulfite agents is the most widely used chemical approach to control browning of foods. However, consumer awareness of the risks associated with sulfites and growing regulations make sulfites an alternative. Efforts should be made to reduce the degree of browning of porang tuber chips caused by enzymatic non-enzymatic browning. The purpose of this study was to study the alternative use of sulfite as an anti-browning agent against the whiteness value of porang tuber chips. The alternative type of sulfite used is ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid concentration (2, 5 and 7.5%) and immersion time (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes) were selected as independent variables. The best condition for preventing browning of porang tuber chips was obtained by using 5% ascorbic acid at a time of soaking for 180 minutes and obtained the highest whiteness value (79.41).

Abstract

Porang (Amorphophallus Muelleri Blume) is a type of tuber that contains various nutrients, especially glucomannan. Besides as being a source of food, the high content of glucomannan can also be used as an alternative for making edible films, because it contains mannan polymers which have the ability to form fine and crystallized fibers. The purpose of this research is to determine the potential of glucomannan in porang tuber flour as a basis for making edible films. Glucomannan used with various variations (3, 6 and 9 grams). The first stages used were testing porang tuber flour and then made edible film base by carrying out various chemical analyzes based on the Japanesse Industrial Standard method. The results showed that the acquisition of water, ash and protein sequentially was 11.782%, 1.821%, 6.275% which conform to the SNI 7939;2013 standards. The 3 gram variation and 0.087 mm thickness of Glucomann showed the best water resistance value of 20.34%. The biodegradability test showed that the 6 grams variation of glucomannan had the best degradation ability, that is 100% for 12 days.

Abstract

Food packaging is the process of protecting a food product to maintain durability and quality consistency. Edible film made from porang tubers is a sustainable and innovative solution to reduce plastic waste and improve food preservation. Porang tuber (Amorphopallus muelleri blume) is a valuable plant as its high glucomannan content can be processed into porang flour. The drying process is one of the important steps in the preparation of porang tuber flour. One of the polysaccharides used in edible films is starch from glucomannan derived from Porang tubers. Glucomannan is an alternative material developed because of the high polysaccharide content in porang tubers, namely mannan, which has the ability to form a good film layer, good biocompatibility, biodegradable and has the ability to form a gel. This study was conducted with the aim to determine the effect of drying temperature on the results of edible films obtained, in terms of swelling and tensile strength values using porang tuber starch. The main stages of this research are the preparation of glycerol-plastized porang tuber flour solution and then the stage of making porang tuber flour edible film. In the manufacture of edible film, the drying process is carried out with temperature variations of 40, 50 and 600C. The highest swelling and tensile strength values were obtained in porang flour edible film at 50 0C, where the swelling and tensile strength values were 61.1% and 0.75 MPa.
