Abstract

Meatballs are a processed meat product that has high nutrition. The maximum shelf life for meatballs made from meat is 1 day (12 hours). Storing meat foods at inappropriate temperatures, such as room temperature, greatly facilitates the growth of microbes. The marketplace for meatballs in traditional markets in the city of Padang is still sold on the streets at open-air temperatures without using sufficient refrigeration. The possibility of contamination with microorganisms is very large. This research aims to determine the suitability and quality of meatballs sold at Pasar Raya Padang City by examining the Total Plate Count (TPC) and identifying the types of bacteria that contaminate meatballs sold at Pasar Raya Padang City. The research results showed that the amount of microbial contamination in meatballs varied, namely 1.9x10 6, 7.5x10 6, 5.6x10 6, 1.8x10 6, 8.6x10 6, and 9.2x10 6. The results of this study showed that the meatball samples had microbial contamination greater than 10 5 CFU/gr or did not meet SNI standards. Based on macroscopic and microscopic morphological identification as well as biochemical reactions, all isolates were classified as bacteria from the genus Bacillus

Abstract

This research was motivated by whether the water fraction of beets can reduce total cholesterol levels in male Swiss Webster white mice. The aims of this study were: to determine the effect of giving beetroot water fraction in reducing total cholesterol levels of male Swiss Webster white mice; Knowing the most optimum dose of tuber water fraction variation in reducing total cholesterol levels of male Swiss webster white mice compared to simvastatin. The method used in this study was experimental research using Swiss Webster male white mice as test animals. The beetroots used for the research were beetroots with the criteria of 2,900 grams per tuber weighing 200-250 grams. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 5 replications. The data obtained was processed statistically using SPSS to determine the effect of the water fraction of beets on reducing total cholesterol levels which were analyzed using the ANOVA test. The results obtained in this study were (1) The water fraction of beets had activity in reducing total cholesterol levels in male Swiss webster white mice. (2) Statistical test results of the beetroot water fraction showed that dose III (6.980 mg/20g BW) had the most optimum antilipemic activity compared to dose I (1.742 mg/20g BW) and dose II (3.484 mg/20g BW). Conclusion: The results of statistical tests of the water fraction of beetroot showed that dose III (6,980 mg/20g BW) had the most optimal antilipemic activity compared to dose I (1,742 mg/20g BW) and dose II (3,484 mg/20g BW).
