Abstract

Synthetic dyes in food products can cause health problems, making some people reduce such products' consumption. Alternatively, instead of avoiding consumption, people can do better by switching to natural dyes in food processing. One possible solution is to use the red dragon fruit's skin (hylocereus polyrhizus), containing anthocyanin pigments of the cyanidin-3-glucoside type. The purpose of this study is to propose the use of red dragon fruit's skin as a natural dye and to determine the characteristics, anthocyanin levels, and shelf life of red dragon fruit peel dye. The making of red dragon fruit peel dye was done by first extracting it with a maceration technique. After that, maltodextrin was added to the filtrate while the drying temperature was carried out at 28°C and 13°C. The results showed that natural dyes with a concentration of 30% maltodextrin at 13° C were the selected dyes and had the best characteristics. The total yield analysis resulted was 11.30%; pH measurement of 4.24; water content of 1.03%; solubility of 98.08%; color intensity L value of 59.41; a value of 33.44; and the b value of -7.78. The results obtained from the analysis of anthocyanin levels were 15.0290 ppm. The total plate number test obtained is 2.1 x 102 colonies/gram with a storage life of 282 days.

Abstract

Tempeh is a food made from soybean seeds processed through fermentation using Rhizopus sp. This processed food in the form of tempeh contains various nutrients that the body needs such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, and minerals but does not contain enough fiber. Therefore, fortification of rice bran and chitosan was carried out on tempeh. Rice bran is a by-product of rice milling which has a high fiber content. While chitosan is chitin that has removed the acetyl group. Chito-oligosaccharides (COS) contained in chitosan can act as natural prebiotics, preservatives, antimicrobials, lower cholesterol levels and are immunostimulants. The purpose of this study was to determine the fiber content and growth of the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus in soybean tempeh (A), rice bran (B), chitosan (C), the ratio of soybean tempeh: rice bran (6: 3) + 2% chitosan (D) and the ratio of soybean tempeh: bran (6: 2) + 2% chitosan (E). The method used for the analysis of fiber content was gravimetric, while the growth of probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus was used to determine the potential of prebiotics contained in samples A, B, C, D, and E. The results obtained in this study were fortification of rice bran and chitosan in tempeh had high levels of fiber and the number of probiotic bacteria cells was higher than soybean tempeh. The higher the bran added, the higher the fiber content and the number of probiotic bacterial cells. while the growth of probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus was used to determine the potential of prebiotics contained in samples A, B, C, D, and E. The results obtained in this study were bran and chitosan fortifications in tempeh had higher fiber content and cell counts of probiotic bacteria than soybean tempeh.

Abstract

Kepok banana is one of the bananas which is a horticultural commodity, easy to cultivate and has high production value in Indonesia. The high production of bananas cannot be separated from the banana peel waste produced. The effort made is to process Kepok banana peels into flour. One of the problems that occurs is that bananas experience a browning reaction. This research aims to reduce the effects of browning reactions by determining anti-browning substances and optimum concentrations in the process of making kepok banana peel flour, so that it can be used as a food ingredient. Making kepok banana peel flour begins with preparing a sample of kepok banana peel and an anti-browning solution. The samples were immersed in each solution, namely Na2S2O5, C₆H₈O₆, and C₆H₈O₇ with a concentration of 0.1 – 0.2%. Control samples were prepared without soaking. Then it is dried, mashed and sifted until it becomes flour. Organoleptic tests and white degree tests were carried out on 6 samples and 1 control. Selected samples are then subjected to chemical tests in the form of proximate and minerals. The results of the organoleptic test and white degree test showed that sample T4, namely soaking using 0.2% Ascorbic Acid anti-browning solution, was the sample selected by the panelists and had the highest white degree, namely 53,26. The results of the proximate and mineral tests for T4 flour samples compared to T1 flour (control) showed that the T4 flour samples had proximate and mineral content values that largely met the standards for wheat flour according to SNI 3751:2009. Only the ash content exceeds the SNI standard, this can be caused by the high iron mineral content.

Abstract

Background: Inflammation is a protective reaction triggered by harmful substances, microbes, or physical trauma. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used to treat inflammation, though they have certain drawbacks, such as the potential for chronic kidney failure and unfavorable gastrointestinal side effects. Therefore, alternative treatments are needed. Cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica L.) roots contain secondary metabolites that may offer potential for inflammation treatment. Objective: This study aims to investigate the potential of secondary metabolites from cogon grass roots as anti-inflammatory agents, both in vitro using protein denaturation inhibition techniques and in silico against the COX-1 and COX-2 enzyme receptors. Methods: Molecular docking of COX-1 (PDB ID 6Y3C) and COX-2 (PDB ID 1PXX) using AutoDock Tool 1.5.6 was used to test the anti-inflammatory activity. In parallel, the in vitro technique involved spectrophotometric denaturation inhibition of the BSA (bovine serum albumin) protein. Results: The in silico results showed that the cyclovalone ligand exhibited the highest interaction and stability, with Gibbs free energies of -9.3 kcal/mol against COX-1 and -9.8 kcal/mol against COX-2, compared to the control ligand diclofenac, which had Gibbs free energies of -6.5 kcal/mol against COX-1 and -8.5 kcal/mol against COX-2. The 30% ethanol extract of cogon grass roots demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity in the in vitro analysis, with an IC50 value of 71.79 µg/mL. Conclusions: These preliminary findings suggest that the ethanol extract of cogon grass roots contains cyclovalone compounds with potential as anti-inflammatory agents.

Abstract

Kotabatu Village, located in Bogor District, is home to several Fish Cultivator Groups (Pokdakan), one of which is Pokdakan Baraya, focused on cultivating catfish. Based on a focus group discussion conducted by the Pakuan University Implementation Team, Pokdakan Baraya faces challenges related to low income, high production costs, and the risks involved in traditional fish farming practices. In response, the team proposed the introduction of the Biofloc system for fish cultivation. The service methods included a comprehensive survey to assess the conditions and needs of the target community, followed by focus group discussions (FGD). The next phase involved outreach by the Pakuan University service team, employing knowledge-sharing methods, case studies, and training on the biofloc technology. To evaluate the impact, regular monitoring and evaluation processes were implemented, which included counseling, pond construction, seed distribution, nursery establishment, and intensive catfish rearing using the biofloc system. As a result of the biofloc system’s adoption, pond productivity increased by 1.8%, and the harvest time was reduced by 15 days. Additionally, the knowledge of Pokdakan Baraya members regarding fish cultivation technology grew by 60%, and their income saw an 81% increase from the sale of the catfish. The successful implementation of this system demonstrates significant improvements in the efficiency, productivity, and economic stability of the community.
