Abstract

Chicken meat constitutes a significant source of animal protein in the Indonesian diet; however, its perishable nature results in a decline in quality during storage. The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical characteristics of chicken meat coated with gelatin-basil leaf extract during cold storage. The present study employed a randomized experiment, incorporating three distinct treatments and five replicates. The treatments comprised cold storage duration (0, 3, and 6 days). The results demonstrated a significant effect (p<0.01) on the pH value, moisture content, water-binding capacity, and L a b color of chicken meat coated with chicken foot gelatin-basil leaf extract. The utilization of gelatin-basil leaf extract coating has been demonstrated to retard the decline in pH and moisture content, thereby preserving the water-binding capacity of chicken meat. Despite the decline in pH and color over time, the efficacy of the coating in preserving the quality of chicken meat, particularly during the initial storage phase, was demonstrated. The gelatin-basil leaf extract coating has been shown to contribute significantly to the prolongation of the freshness of chicken meat by slowing down the acidification and oxidation processes.

Abstract

Jerowaru sub-district is one of 21 sub-districts in East Lombok district. Many people raise buffaloes to fulfill their need for food of animal origin. However, the business is still hampered by diseases caused by worm infestation, which is economically detrimental. This study aimed to obtain data on the prevalence of helminthiasis in buffaloes and identify the types of worms that infest the animals. Fecal samples were collected from buffaloes kept in smallholder farms in several villages in the Jerowaru sub-district. Examination and identification of samples were conducted at the Microbiology and Biotechnology laboratory of the Faculty of Animal Science, University of Mataram, and the Banyumulek Animal Health laboratory. The results show that the prevalence of helminthiasis in buffaloes kept in smallholder farms in the Jerowaru subdistrict was 14.60%. The types of parasites infecting buffaloes consisted of Eimeria (13.48%) and Toxocara (1.12%). Although parasite infection intensity is categorized as mild, it is necessary to pay attention to the cleanliness of cattle pens, especially during the rainy season, so they are not wet and humid.
