Abstract

Curcumin extract from the turmeric plant is unstable to light, temperature, and changes in pH, therefore it is necessary to be coated with biopolymers to have a longer shelf life. This study aims to determine the type of degradation kinetics of maltodextrin-coated curcumin and its shelf life at room temperature storage. Encapsulation was performed using an emulsion technique combined with freeze drying with a ratio of turmeric ethanol extract to maltodextrin of 7: 5 (w/w). The results showed that the efficiency of coating the ethanol extract of turmeric with maltodextrin was 31.26%. Kinetics degradation of curcumin coated with maltodextrin follows zero-order reaction kinetics. The microcapsule of turmeric ethanol extract coated with maltodextrin has a shelf life at room temperature of 8.35 weeks.
