Abstract

Freshness of gourami fish is essential in determining the quality of fishery products because fish in fresh conditions will have good quality, so they are safe for consumption. Innovative packaging allows real-time fish freshness monitoring through color changes on the biosensor label. This study aimed to determine the color changes of the biosensor during application to the product. The results of this study, the biosensor applied to the product at a temperature of 4 ° C had a reddish-brown color until the 6th day of storage and on the 7th to 9th day it changed to greenish yellow, this is by the decrease in product quality indicated by the TVN-N value on the 7th day 19,413 mgN / 100g, the 8th 25,883 mgN / 100g and the 9th 33,650 mgN / 100g. The color of the biosensor on the 9th day is the L * value of 50.6, the a * value of 0.4, the b * value of 49.6, and the Hue value of 47 °.

Abstract

Pempek is a fish-based food product that is highly susceptible to spoilage due to its elevated water and protein content, which fosters microbial growth. The reliance on conventional plastic packaging, such as polypropylene, raises environmental concerns, underscoring the need for alternative, more eco-friendly packaging solutions that enhance product safety. This study aimed to utilize bioplastics derived from corn cob cellulose and chitosan as active packaging to mitigate the deterioration of pempek during storage. The research involved extracting corn cob cellulose via the organosolv method, fabricating bioplastics via solution casting, packaging the pempek, and assessing Total Plate Count (TPC) and pH levels over 4 days of storage at room temperature. The findings revealed that the active bioplastic significantly inhibited microbial growth. The TPC of pempek packaged in bioplastic was 1–2 logs lower than that of the control on days 2-4. Additionally, the pH of the bioplastic-preserved pempek declined from 6.75 to 5.46, whereas the control increased from 7.77 to 8.17, indicating microbial spoilage. These results suggest that bioplastic incorporating corn cob cellulose and chitosan effectively slows deterioration, enhances microbiological safety, and presents a viable, environmentally friendly packaging alternative for food products.
