Abstract

Cold storage and the addition of preservatives are ways of preserving fillet products to maintain their quality. The addition of preservatives to fillet products can be in the form of synthetic or natural ingredients. Galangal rhizome contains essential oils that are active as antifungal and antibacterial. This study aimed to know the concentration of essential oils and effective storage time in maintaining the quality of the broiler chicken fillet. The method used is a laboratory experiment, using the concentration of red galangal essential oil (0; 0.5; 1; 1.5%), storage time (0, 8, 12, 16 days), repeated three times and treatment negative control. Microbiological analysis was carried out based on SNI 3924:2009, including Eschercia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella sp tests. The results showed that 1.5% volatile oil concentration with a storage time of 8 days was the most effective in maintaining the quality of chicken fillet with a total plate count (TPC) of 9x105 cfu/g. The number of Escherichia coli bacteria is 0x101kol/g, Salmonella sp bacteria is negative per 25 grams, the water content is 72.03%, and the pH value is 6.31. The concentration of 1.5% essential oil with a storage time of 16 days obtained the number of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria as much as 100 cfu/g. This result does not exceed the maximum limit of SNI 3924:2009, which is 1x102 cfu/g.The highest organoleptic value of appearance and taste was found in adding 1% galangal essential oil and a storage time of 0 days. For the odour, the highest value was found in adding 0.5% galangal essential oil and a storage time of 12 days.Keywords: Chicken Fillet, Essential Oil, E.coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella sp. ABSTRAKMinyak Atsiri Lengkuas (Alpinia galanga (L.)

Abstract

Detergent is an ingredient used to maintain cleanliness. In the manufacture of detergents, an active ingredient in the form of LAS (Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate) surfactant is often added to kill bacteria. In addition to using synthetic materials, natural ingredients can also be used that can act as antibacterial. One of the natural ingredients with antibacterial activity is hibiscus leaves (Hibiscus tilianceus L). The use of hibiscus leaf extract as a substitute for LAS surfactants aims to reduce the impact of environmental pollution The purpose of this research was to find the right formula in the manufacture of liquid detergent made from hibiscus leaf extract and determine its quality based on SNI 06-0475-1996. The research method used is experimental research that produces qualitative and quantitative data. Qualitative data include phytochemical tests, organoleptic tests, hard water emulsion stability tests, and cleaning power tests. The resulting quantitative data includes the characteristics of the liquid detergent produced based on testing pH, specific gravity, antimicrobial test, phenol coefficient, and levels of active substances. Based on the study, results showed that hibiscus leaf extract contained secondary metabolites in the form of saponins, triterpenoid/steroidal saponins, flavonoids, and polyphenols. The antibacterial test showed that hibiscus leaf liquid detergent had antibacterial activity 1.67 times more effective than phenol. The product test results show that the liquid detergent of hibiscus leaves has the quality according to SNI 06-0475-1996.Keywords: Hibiscus Leaf Extract; Eco-Friendly Detergent; Hibiscus leaves; Surfactant; LAS (Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate)

Abstract

Nutmeg mace is a mesh-shaped seed coat that is bright red when the fruit is ripe and yellowish-white when immature, which generally contains secondary metabolites such as flavonoids and phenolics. This study aimed to examine the content of flavonoids and phenolics, the antioxidant activity of ethanol extract of the nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt) mace based on three regions in West Java i.e. Sukabumi, Cianjur, and Bogor District with age differences. Total phenolic content was measured spectrophotometrically using the Folin Ciocalteau reagent. The total flavonoid content was quantitatively measured using the AlCl3 colorimetric method. Antioxidant activity was tested by measuring the IC50 using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) method. The highest phenolic content was found in young nutmeg from Sukabumi Regency (76.40 mgTAE/g). The highest flavonoid content was found in old age mace nutmeg from Bogor Regency (20.33 mgQE/g). Nutmeg mace has the potential as a natural antioxidant because it can reduce free radicals in DPPH with the lowest IC50 of 153.5 mg/L in old mace from Cianjur District.Keywords: Myristica fragrans Houtt; Mace; Phenolic; Flavonoid; Antioxidant ActivityABSTRAKKandungan Metabolit Sekunder Dan Potensi Antioksidan Fuli Buah Pala (Myristica Fragrans Houtt) Dari Jawa BaratFuli pala adalah selubung biji berbentuk jala berwarna merah terang ketika buah sudah matang dan berwarna putih kekuningan ketika belum matang, yang  umumnya mengandung senyawa metabolit sekunder diantaranya flavonoid dan fenolik. Tujuan penelitian ini  untuk menguji kandungan senyawa flavonoid, fenolik dan aktivitas antioksidan ekstrak etanol fuli pala (Myristica fragrans Houtt) berdasarkan tiga wilayah yaitu Kabupaten Sukabumi, Kabupaten Cianjur dan Kabupaten Bogor dengan perbedaan usia.

Kadar fenolik tertinggi didapatkan pada pala usia muda dari Kabupaten Sukabumi dengan kadar sebesar 76,40 mgTAE/g. Kadar flavonoid tertinggi didapat pada fuli pala usia tua di Kabupaten Bogor dengan kadar sebesar 20,33 mgQE/g. Fuli buah pala berpotensi sebagai antioksidan alami karena mampu meredam radikal bebas pada DPPH dengan IC50 terendah sebesar 153,5 mg/L yang diperoleh dari fuli usia tua dari Kabupaten Cianjur.Kata kunci: Myristica fragrans Houtt; Fuli; Fenolik; Flavonoid; Aktivitas Antioksidan

Abstract

The increase in the amount of palm oil production impacts increasing the total liquid waste from the processing of palm oil. Palm oil mill effluent (POME) has high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) parameters that can cause environmental pollution. This study processed POME using the Fenton mechanism using reagents derived from scrap iron. The Fenton mechanism is one of the advanced oxidation process technology (AOPs) in wastewater treatment. To improve the performance of the Fenton mechanism, the researchers integrated it with UV-rays in the photo-Fenton mechanism scheme. Fenton and photo-Fenton processes effectively reduce the pH, BOD, and COD of POME. The COD removal efficiency was 99.91%, while the BOD removal efficiency was 99.93%. The more FeSO4 added to the wastewater, the more significant the reduction of BOD and COD in the Fenton and photo-Fenton processes. Also, photo-Fenton is more effective than the Fenton process to reduce BOD and COD in the POME.Keywords: POME; Fenton; Photo-Fenton; Scrap ironABSTRAKPemanfaatan Besi Bekas untuk Pengolahan Limbah Cair Industri Kelapa Sawit Melalui Proses Fenton dan Foto-FentonMeningkatnya jumlah produksi kelapa sawit, berdampak pada peningkatan total limbah cair dari hasil pengolahan kelapa sawit. Limbah cair industri kelapa sawit atau Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) memiliki nilai parameter chemical oxygen demand (COD) dan biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) yang tinggi sehingga dapat menyebabkan pencemaran lingkungan. Di dalam penelitian ini, dilakukan pengolahan POME menggunakan mekanisme Fenton menggunakan reagen yang berasal dari besi bekas. Mekanisme Fenton adalah salah satu pengembangan dari teknologi proses oksidasi maju (AOPs) dalam pengolahan air limbah.  Untuk meningkatkan performa dari mekanisme Fenton, peneliti mengintegrasikan system tersebut dengan sinar-UV dalam skema mekanisme foto-Fenton. Proses Fenton dan foto-Fenton sangat efektif dalam menurunkan pH, BOD dan COD dari POME. Efisiensi penyisihan COD mencapai 99,91%, sedangkan efisiensi penyisihan BOD mencapai 99,93%. Semakin banyak FeSO4 yang ditambahkan ke dalam air limbah maka semakin besar reduksi BOD dan COD dalam proses Fenton dan foto-Fenton. Selain itu, foto-Fenton lebih efektif dibandingkan dengan proses Fenton dalam mereduksi BOD dan COD dalam POMEKata kunci : POME; Fenton; foto-Fenton; besi bekas
