Abstract

World Health Organization (WHO) estimates both the number of patients and mortality rates due to cancer will continue to rise. Various researches were conducted in order to prevent and handle the cases of tumors and cancers, including the application of photosynthetic pigment molecules known as photodynamic therapy (PDT). Chlorophylls, the main pigment in photosynthesis, have an ability to capture light energy and control series of photobiology and photochemical processes1. In PDT, chlorophyll or its derivatives compounds act as the sensitizer which have energy excitation by light radiation (visible or near infra red), and generate some reactive oxygen species which triggers the death of cancer cells selectively (through apoptosis and / or necrosis pathway)2. Sensitizer compounds have been progressing from the first to third generation. The development of the third generation sensitizer was influenced by the advances of nanotechnology which lead to the improvement of PDT efficacy. The structure and size of nanoparticles can increase light absorption, and make the sensitizer accumulate in cancer tissues more specifically 3-4. Furthermore, nanoparticulatte targeting also interested to be studied because by conjugate functional groups, i.e. monoclonal antibody, on the sensitizer, it can improve the selectivity of therapy in targeting tumor and cancer tissues.

Abstract

Papaya and carrot are rich in natural pigments, especially b-carotene. Unfortunately, in most cases, natural pigments are less stable than the synthetic ones when they are put in a variety of treatment conditions, such as pH. In this work, the stability of the papaya and carrot extracts were evaluated in various pH, which ranges of 1-10 for 7 days. The extracts were obtained by a slow juicer, followed by encapsulation and drying by a freeze dryer. The extracts were then dispersed in buffer solutions and the chroma and color difference (DE) values were calculated from the obtained lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*). The results showed that carrot extract was better than the papaya extract in terms of chroma values. It was also shown that both extracts were not stable under acidic condition, but more stable in neutral to alkaline condition. The acid condition facilitated the cleavage of the conjugated bonds in the b-carotene, which in turn caused the color degradation in the papaya and carrot extracts.

Abstract

Suji (Pleomele angustifolia) is one kind of Indonesian typical plants which can be used as natural green food coloring agent. The susceptibility of natural pigment to external environment forces the protection in order to prolong its shelf life. Encapsulation has been known in the art of food preparation to provide protection for several ingredients including food coloring agent. The objective of this study was to observe the method for isolation and encapsulation of thylakoid, and to investigate the stability and characteristics of thylakoid of suji leaves encapsulated in maltodextrin during dark storage at 30 °C, 45 °C, and 60 °C. The degradation of the encapsulated pigments was identified through chromametric analysis which resulted in the increase of L* (lightness), a* (redness), and b* (yellowness) values. In addition, it was also indicated by the decrease of total chlorophyll (TC) which was determined using spectrophotometer. Chromatography analysis confirmed the presence of four major peaks in the fresh encapsulated thylakoid powder and five major peaks in the encapsulated thylakoid powder stored at the highest temperature (60 °C), with Chl a as the dominant pigments in both powder. The vivid green powder was able to preserve its color without any obvious change to an untrained eye up to 60 d of storage at 30 °C, becoming a promising ingredient to replace the synthetic colorants.

Abstract

Palm oil is known as one of the richest sources of carotenes. Carotenes concentrate could be prepared from crude palm oil and possessing potency to be used as nutraceutical materials. Due to the susceptibility of carotenes against heat, the encapsulation procedure might be applied to provide protections. The present study was aimed to learn the influence of using different combination of wall materials toward the thermal degradation kinetics of palm carotenes. Maltodextrin was used as primary wall material, being combined with various surface-active agents, i.e. Tween-80 (A), Tween-20 (B), and Arabic gum (C). The carotenes concentrate was encapsulated through emulsification steps, and the vivid yellow powder was obtained after freeze drying process. Then, encapsulated palm carotenes were stored in 200C, 350C, and 500C for several days, and the color, carotenes spectrum, as well as water content were monitored periodically. The kinetics of thermal degradation of carotenes were estimated using Arrhenius equation. The results showed that the use of different combination of wall materials exhibited distinct degradation rate. The combination of maltodextrin and Tween-80 gave preferable protection compared to the others, being half-degraded after 51 days in 200C.

Abstract

It has been known that most natural pigments are unstable upon exposure against several environmental factors, such as thermal treatment, light, oxidizing or reducing agents, as well as acid or alkaline compounds. Encapsulation procedures is often adopted to adjust the solubility and provide protection to the natural pigments. Here, we prepared an encapsulated beetroot extract as the candidate of red bio-colorant. The primary aim of the present study is to investigate color alteration of encapsulated beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) extract upon dissolving in various pH adjustment and prolonged storage. The McIllvainne buffer was prepared in various pH range, i.e. from 2 to 11. The encapsulated extract (0.1% w/v) was dissolved and the color of the solutions were measured regularly until 3 days storage under darkness at 200C. Any degradation or structural changes will cause color alteration, which were monitored through L*, a*, b* values, the hue angle (H°), chroma values (C), as well as color difference (DE). The results showed that pH 4 was the most favorable condition that brings least impact to the color alteration, even when the colored solution was kept in prolonged storage until 9 days.

Abstract

Solid brem is an indigenous fermented food of Indonesia, which often has typical form of long thick bar, white to yellow in color, sweet-sour taste with cooling sensation, and it is easy to crumble by the presence of water. These unique characteristics are generated through alcoholic fermentation of glutinous rice, followed by filtration, concentration, whipping and dehydration. Although it is continuously produced and sold as regional specialties of Madiun, East Java, most people refuse to consume this solid brem due to its high sugar content and lack of information that describes its potential health benefits. The present study is attempting the possibility of combining glutinous rice with another local material having well-known health benefit. Here, we utilize the potency of local purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas var. Gunung Kawi), being rich in carbohydrate and anthocyanines, to partly substitute the glutinous rice while adding the health benefits of the final product. The present anthocyanins in sweet potato has been well-studied, exhibiting antioxidant, anti-inflammation, and hepatoprotective activities. The raw materials were subjected to yeast fermentation for 7 days, and subsequently extracted using manual mechanical press. A series of materials ratio (extract of fermented glutinous rice: purple sweet potato = 30:1, 15:1, 15:2) was determined prior to dehydration of brem, and then the color, sugar content, pH, antioxidant activity, and sensory properties of the resulted product were analyzed. Moreover, the competitive analysis and marketing strategy will also be discussed in order to make sure the sustainability of this new innovation.
