Abstract

Bitter leaf (Vernonia amygdalina Del.) hold significant potential for development in the pharmaceutical industry due to its high content of bioactive compounds, particularly flavonoids, which serve as a source of anti-inflammatory agents. A major challenge in processing bitter leaf into dried simplicia is the selection of an appropriate drying technique, as the drying process can alter the active compounds present in the plant. This study aimed to analyze the drying rate of bitter leaf and evaluate the most effective drying technique for preserving their anti-inflammatory properties. The drying process was conducted using an oven dryer at 40°C and 50°C, as well as a greenhouse dryer, and the reduction in moisture content over time was recorded. The dried simplicia was subsequently subjected to phytochemical screening and anti-inflammatory activity testing. The results indicated that the drying durations required to achieve a final moisture content of <10% were 44 hours at 40°C, 20 hours at 50°C, and 9 hours using the greenhouse drying method. Phytochemical analysis confirmed the presence of saponins, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and steroids in the bitter leaf extract. The IC₅₀ values for the three drying methods were determined to be 25.33 ppm, 61.05 ppm, and 114.25 ppm, respectively. Among the drying methods tested, oven drying at 40°C yielded the highest anti-inflammatory activity, with an IC₅₀ value of 25.33 ppm. The regression equation obtained was y = 0.072x + 48.176, with an R² value of 0.9899, indicating a strong correlation between extract concentration and inflammation inhibition. This suggests the potential for reliable prediction of optimal dosages for pharmacological applications.

Abstract

Kombucha is a fermented tea beverage made from Camellia sinensis and sugar using a Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBY). It is known for its health benefits, including immune system support, antimicrobial activity, anti-inflammatory properties, and probiotic effects. However, its ethanol content raises concerns among the predominantly Muslim Indonesian population. This study aims to evaluate the influence of sugar concentration and fermentation time on the halal and safety aspects of green tea kombucha. A Randomized Block Design (RBD) was employed, with sugar concentrations of 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5% (w/v) and fermentation durations of 8, 10, and 12 days, resulting in 36 experimental samples. Data were analyzed using Two-Way ANOVA (α = 0.05) in IBM SPSS Statistics 26, followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) when interactions were significant. Measured parameters included pH, total acidity, and ethanol content. Results showed that fermentation time and sugar concentration significantly influenced pH (2.61–2.78), total acidity (0.055%–0.188%), and ethanol content (0.090%–0.199%). These values met halal and safety standards, with ethanol <0.5%, acidity 0.2%–0.9%, and pH 2.5–4.2. Thus, green tea kombucha is deemed safe and halal for consumption.

Abstract

Zingiber Cassumunar Roxb., locally known as bangle, has pharmacological activities as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, neuroprotective, and antibacterial. Green technology extractions have more advantages than conventional extraction. Therefore, this study aims to model the extraction conditions of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) using the Box-Behnken design (BBD) response surface method. Extraction of the bangle was performed using an ultrasonic bath with various bangle-to-ethanol ratios (1:15, 1:30, and 1:45 w/v), ethanol concentrations (60, 70, and 80%), and extraction times (5, 15, and 25 min). The program selected the quadratic model prediction to determine the relationship between bangle-to-ethanol ratio, ethanol concentration, and extraction time on the total phenolics and antioxidant activity. The optimization results showed that the optimum conditions for bangle rhizome extraction were a bangle-to-ethanol ratio of 1:45 w/v, an ethanol concentration of 70%, and an extraction time of 25 min. Under these conditions, total phenolic compounds of 5.48 mg GAE/g and antioxidant activity of 69.18% were obtained. The model had a desirability value of 0.938. The model agreed with the predicted antioxidant activity values (p >0.05). Furthermore, five phenolic group compounds, 11 coumarin group compounds, and 10 alkaloid group compounds were identified using LC-MS/MS QTOF.

Abstract

This study examined rose tea's stress-relieving potential through its chemical and sensory characteristics. Aligned with Indonesia’s SDG point 3, the phenolics and antioxidants contents of rose tea reinforce its role as a functional beverage. Variations in Oolong withering duration (18 hours), drying temperature (60°C and 80°C), and drying duration (1-3 hours) affected key properties, including acidity, sugar content, phenolics, flavor, aroma, and mouthfeel. Sensory and chemical analyses revealed that optimal drying conditions enhance taste and aroma, increased acidity and phenolics sharpen flavors, while higher sugar content balances the profile. Sample A1 (dried rose tea at 60°C for 1 hour) achieved the highest consumer acceptance due to its balanced acidity (0.19 ± 0.02 g/L), sweetness (14.00 ± 0.61 g/L), and floral aroma (3.49 ± 1.14). The phenolic content (1.21 ± 0.16 mg GAE/g) enhanced flavor without excessive bitterness (3.95 ± 1.25), while higher sugar content improved sweetness (3.84 ± 1.12). The well-balanced astringency (2.94 ± 1.41), floral flavor (3.81 ± 1.18), and sweet aroma (3.27 ± 1.37) contributed to its high preference, despite its lower brown (1.61 ± 0.81) and red (1.12 ± 0.42) color intensity. These findings highlight the importance of optimizing processing conditions to enhance both sensory appeal and functional benefits of rose tea.

Abstract

The gonggong shell (Laevistrombus turturella) is a species of sea snail found in the waters surrounding Bintan, Riau Islands. The gonggong consists of both meat and shell, with the shell constituting the largest portion, approximately 60%. The high proportion of shells materials compared to  the meat results in abundant gonggong shell waste. One way to utilize gonggong shells is by converting the shells into shell flour, which can be used in health supplements and as feed for shrimp, particularly in shrimp farms in Bintan Regency. The hard texture of gonggong shells (13.1 MPa) requires pretreatment before milling. The pretreatment processes include autoclaving, drying, and burning. This study aimed to assess the quality difference between the scaled-up  and laboratory-scale processes, and to identify the material requirements and utilities for the large-scale pretreatment process of gonggong shell to produce shell flour. The scale-up was conducted with a 1 : 50 ratio from the laboratory scale. The quality results of gonggong shell flour in the large-scale study showed a moisture content of 0.46%, an ash content of 56.42%, and a calcium content of 54.31%. These results were compared with those obtained at the laboratory scale using an unpaired t-test, and no significant differences were found for all tested parameters.

Abstract

Robusta and Arabica are the two most widely cultivated coffee varieties in Indonesia, with Robusta typically exhibiting a higher caffeine content than Arabica. Caffeine is the primary compound in coffee, contributing to improved psychomotor performance and various physiological effects, including increased energy levels. According to SNI 01-7152-2006, the maximum recommended daily intake of caffeine in food or beverages is 150 mg/day or 50 mg/serving. This study aimed to reduce the caffeine content of coffee through an enzymatic approach using protease enzymes, based on the premise that protein degradation in the coffee bean membrane would lower caffeine content. Protease enzymes were derived from pineapple juice, papaya juice, chayote juice and ginger juice and determines the best soaking time. In the initial phase, the juice concentration most effective in reducing caffeine content was identified.. Factor 1 was the type of juice with 4 treatment levels (pineapple juice, papaya juice, chayote juice, and ginger juice) and factor 2 was the percentage of juice with 5 treatment levels (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). Before the fermentation process, the caffeine content in Robusta coffee beans was 2.134%. However, after the enzymatic process involving various juice extracts, caffeine content decreased significantly, ranging from 1.295% (chayote extract) to 1.411% (pineapple extract). The optimal concentrations for reducing caffeine content were 40% pineapple juice, 50% papaya juice, 50% chayote juice, and 40% ginger juice. Then, decaffeination was carried out with variations in soaking time. Factor 1 was the best type of juice which includes 4 treatment levels (40% pineapple juice, 50% papaya juice, 50% chayote juice and 40% ginger juice) and factor 2 was  the soaking time with 3 treatment levels (12 hours, 24 hours and 36 hours). Caffeine content decreased from 1.180% at 12 hours to 1.003% at 36 hours of soaking. The results indicated that prolonged soaking reduced caffeine, protein, and fat levels, but increasing moisture content and improving the cupping value of coffee beans.

Abstract

Edible coatings represent one of newest innovations to protect wet food products from chemical and microbial damages. However, these coatings are low (or zero) antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Honey mango leaf extract (HMLE) and liquid smoke (LS) are two additives that can be added into edible coatings to improve their antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. In addition, corn starch (CS) was used as a main ingredient to provide the edible coating with desirable physical property. This study investigated the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of corn starch-based edible coatings with the addition of HMLE and LS. Six formulations were prepared with varying HMLE and LS ratios of 0:0 (F0), 0:6 (F1), 2:4 (F2), 3:3 (F3), 4:2 (F4), and 6:0 (F5). The antioxidant activity (IC50) was evaluated using the DPPH method, and antimicrobial activity was assessed by total plate count (TPC) methods. All data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA at a significance level of 0.05. The IC50 values of all edible coatings ranged from 44.55 to 304.94 ppm. Meanwhile, the  TPC values of all edible coatings were observed to be less than 1 × 105 cfu/g (or not detected, ND), demonstrating effective antimicrobial activity. Based on both the IC50 and TPC values, formulation F4 emerged as the best formulation. Overall, these results indicated that the  incoorporation of HMLE and LS significantly increased the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of edible coatings.

Abstract

Herbal tea imparts health benefits largely due to its polyphenol-based antioxidant activity. Soursop leaves contain compounds including flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, acetogenins, and saponins. Red galangal contains compounds such as saponins, tannins, flavonoids, and essential oils. The addition of red galangal to soursop leaf tea not only enhances the antioxidant activity of the tea but also improves its flavor. This study investigated the influence of adding red galangal simplicia to soursop leaf tea on its chemical and organoleptic properties, and also its antioxidant activity. The research method was based on varying ratios of the two ingredients (soursop leaves: red galangal simplicia), specifically F1 (100%: 0%), F2 (85%: 15%), F3 (80%: 20%), F4 (75%: 25%), F5 (70%: 30%), with three repetitions. The chemical properties tested included water content, ash content, antioxidant activity, flavonoid content, polyphenol content, and tannin content. The organoleptic tests included assessments of color, aroma, taste, aftertaste, and overall preference. The results demonstrated that soursop leaf tea with the addition of red galangal simplicia had a significant effect on its chemical properties, organoleptic properties, and antioxidant activity. The analysis results showed the lowest water content at 8.51% (F5), the lowest ash content at 7.03% (F5), the highest antioxidant activity at 33.37 ppm (F5), the highest flavonoid content at 95.46 mgQE/g (F5), the highest total phenolic content at 46.10 mgGAE/g (F5), and the highest tannin content at 42.63 mgCE/g (F5). Organoleptic assessment based on color preference scored 3.83 (F1), with the highest aroma score at 3.70 (F5), the highest taste score at 3.51 (F5), the highest aftertaste score at 3.30 (F5), and the highest overall preference score at 3.58 (F5). Based on these results, it can be concluded that the most preferred treatment, with the highest phytochemical contents and antioxidant activity, was treatment F5 with a concentration of 70% soursop leaves and 30% red galangal simplicia.

Abstract

The demand for animal-based food, particularly meat, continues to increase. However, certain types of meat are relatively expensive, which encourages the practice of adulterating non-halal meat to reduce production costs. Therefore, the use of analytical methods to detect the presence of non-halal species in products is necessary, especially for the halal certification process. Volatile compound-based halal authentication using SPME-GC-MS (Solid Phase Microextraction-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry) has been a focus of research in recent years due to its speed and simplicity. However, due to the large amount of data involved, chemometric applications cannot be separated. Therefore, this article aims to review the principles and applications of the SPME-GC-MS method in the detection of meat from certain species for the purpose of halal authentication. The data synthesis process in this article was performed by comparing relevant journals that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The database was obtained through Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, MDPI, and Springer. The SPME-GC-MS method combined with chemometrics can clearly classify different types of meat and meat products from different species. Therefore, this method can be used for the halal authentication of meat products. However, quantification of the marker compound is required to obtain more precise results.

Abstract

Monascus fermented durian seed (MFDS) can be helpful as a natural dye that has the potential to anticancer, anti-hypercholesterolemia, anti-diabetic, and others. Pigment production in MFDS is still relatively low compared to complex starch media. This research aimed to improve the pigment production in MFDS by adding rice flour. The research design used was a Randomized Block Design with one factor, namely the concentration of rice flour consisting of six levels that are 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%. The results showed that adding rice flour affected the color and levels of water-soluble pigment and ethanol in MFDS. The higher concentration of rice flour decreased the value of lightness and increased the value of redness, yellowness, and chroma, as well as improving the levels of water and ethanol-soluble pigment. Highest ethanol and water-soluble pigment produced in MFDS with 10% rice flour, which produced a yellow pigment content of 9.814 - 10.609 AU/g; orange pigment 3.065 - 8.074 AU/g; and red pigment 4.134 - 8.085 AU/g. The intensity of the MFDS pigments also increased with the higher concentration of rice flour added.
