Abstract

The human intestine is a diverse ecosystem populated by microbiota affected by several factors, including age. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of the probiotic powder Lactobacillus plantarum Dad-13 on the numbers of gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), and fecal characteristics in healthy adolescents. This research was conducted at SMPN 1 Pangururan, Samosir, with a randomized, double-blind, parallel placebo-controlled trial. 54 healthy adolescents aged 13 to 14 were divided into two groups, one consumed a gram of skimmed milk powder (placebo group) and the other ingested powder containing L. plantarum Dad-13 with 1.18 × 109 CFU/gram (probiotic group). After 33 days of intervention, the height of placebo group (149.42 ± 5.03 cm) and probiotic group (154.37 ± 4.67 cm) increased significantly. Significant increases in body weight (44.35 kg ± 4.61 to 45.20 kg ± 4.78) and BMI (and 18.77 ± 2.12 to 18.99 ± 2.11) were observed in the probiotic group. In the probiotic group, the numbers of gut microbiota were not significantly affected (p > 0.05). The amount of SCFA and fecal characteristics of both groups showed no significant differences. Thus, the consumption of L. plantarum Dad-13 increased weight, height, and BMI but could not influence the numbers of gut microbiota, SCFA, and the fecal characteristics of healthy adolescents.

Abstract

Sampah merupakan hasil sisa aktivitas manusia yang dibuang dan tidak terpakai. Sampah yang dapat terurai dikategorikan sebagai sampah organik, dan sampah yang tidak dapat terurai dikategorikan sebagai sampah anorganik. Tujuan dari pengabdian ini untuk memberikan ilmu pengetahuan kepada masyarakat tentang sampah organik dan anorganik serta pentingnya pemilahan dan pengolahan sampah organik dan anorganik. Penyuluhan berlangsung pada bulan Oktober 2023 di Desa Perambahan Kabupaten Banyuasin 1, Sumatera Selatan dan materi disampaikan oleh tim pengabdi yang merupakan dosen dari Politeknik Negeri Sriwijaya. Peserta pengabdian terdiri dari perangkat Desa dan ibu-ibu Kader Posyandu dan PKK. Tim pengabdi menyampaikan materi tentang perbedaan sampah organik dan anorganik, contoh-contoh sampah organik dan anorganik, pemilahan sampah organik dan anorganik, serta pengolahan sampah. Peserta pengabdian antusias terhadap kegiatan pengabdian ini dengan tingkat tanya jawab yang tinggi kepada tim pengabdi. Masyarakat setempat diharapkan mendapatkan ilmu pengetahuan baru tentang sampah dan menjadikan lingkungan sekitar menjadi lebih bersih, asri, serta dapat menjadi tempat untuk memberikan perekonomian tambahan bagi masyarakat.

Abstract

This study entitled robusta and arabica coffee effects on yoghurt’s physical, chemical, sensory, and microbiological quality. Aimed to investigate the impact of adding Robusta coffee, Arabica coffee, and their combination on the physicochemical properties and sensory acceptance of yoghurt. The research was structured using a Completely Randomized Design, analyzing six distinct formulations, including a control (A), pure coffees (B, C), and combinations (D, E, F). Data analysis utilized ANOVA followed by the Honestly Significant Difference test. Sensory evaluation identified treatment E as the most preferred overall (score 4.00), owing to its strong, yet well-balanced, coffee flavor and aroma. Further analysis focused on treatment E, assessing viscosity, color, and total Lactic Acid Bacteria count. Results indicated that coffee inclusion significantly influenced all parameters. Treatment E exhibited the highest pH (4.85) and showed a dramatic viscosity decrease from 727.5 (control) to 37.5 cP. Color analysis revealed a darker product (L* 63.93), with significant increases in a*, b*, C*, and H* values, attributed to coffee's melanoidin content. Importantly, the total LAB count for treatment E (4.5 × 10⁷ CFU/ml) was statistically similar to the control and met the minimum national standard (SNI 01-2981-2009). In conclusion, Formulation E successfully yielded a functional coffee yoghurt product with excellent organoleptic characteristics and preserved the viability of Lactic Acid Bacteria.

Abstract

Ice cream is an innovative product made from cow’s milk that is widely favored by the public. One form of innovation in ice cream products is the incorporation of probiotic beverages, enabling the product to function as a functional food. This study aimed to analyze the effect of adding mango fruit at different concentrations on the physical properties and sensory acceptance of ice cream. The study employed a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three treatments: 0% mango (F1); 25% mango (F2); and 50% mango (F3), followed by fermentation using a fermented beverage containing Lactobacillus casei Shirota as the starter culture which were analyzed using ANOVA followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. The results showed that the addition of mango significantly reduced the overrun value from 75% (F1) to 40% (F3), while extending the melting time from 12 minutes and 1 second (F1) to 39 minutes and 52 seconds (F3). The pH value increased from 4 (F1) to 5 in the mango-containing formulations (F2 and F3). Sensory evaluation indicated that F1 had the best color and texture. In conclusion, the addition of mango improved the physical stability (melting time) and modified the sensory profile of fermented ice cream, but did not significantly alter the overall panelist preference. These findings are expected to serve as a basis for developing functional food products well accepted by the public.
