Abstract

Lactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 is a probiotic bacterium with limited tolerance to acidic environments, bile fluids, and high temperatures, necessitating physical protection via microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) encapsulation derived from palm leaf waste. This study aimed to evaluate the resistance of encapsulated probiotic bacteria under acidic conditions at various temperatures and storage durations to identify the optimal storage temperature. A factorial complete randomized design (CRD) with two factors was employed: storage temperature (room temperature, 4°C, and -18°C) and storage time (0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42 days). The results indicated that storage time and the interaction between storage time and temperature significantly affected the total lactic acid bacteria (LAB) count. However, temperature alone and its interaction with storage time did not significantly impact the percentage reduction in the number of encapsulated Lactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 at pH 2. Overall, encapsulated bacteria stored at various temperatures demonstrated comparable bacterial resistance..

Abstract

Rubber farmers in Indonesia make lump slabs with ant acid and some still use freezing materials that can damage the quality of rubber such as alum. Besides causing damage to the quality of the rubber, it also causes a bad smell which is very disturbing to the people around the place where the latex is processed. The pungent foul odor is caused by bacteria which biodegrade proteins into ammonia and sulfide compounds. OKU Regency is the fifth largest district in the area of ​​rubber plantations in South Sumatra Province. Based on land suitability, plantations are a potential sector to be developed with the superior commodity rubber. The smallholder plantation sector with rubber is the leading commodity in the Ogan Komering Ulu Regency area. This research will be carried out in Lubuk Raja District, OKU Regency. The location determination was carried out purposively considering that Lubuk Raja District, OKU Regency, is one of the rubber producing areas in South Sumatra, especially OKU. The research method used in this research is the survey method. The sampling method used in the research is to answer the formulation of the big problem of rubber farmer income in Lubuk Raja District using income analysis and comparative analysis. Based on the analysis of the results of the research that has been carried out, it can be concluded that the average income of farmers who use ant acid per hectare per month is IDR 5,093,515.15/ha/month. Meanwhile, the average income of rubber farmers who use alum freezers is higher than the income of farmers using ant acid freezers, namely IDR 20,234,572.46/ha/month. Based on the Independent Sample t-Test in the Equal Variances Assumed section, the sig value (2-tailed) is 0.04 < 0.05 (95% confidence level). So it is concluded that H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected, which means there is a difference in the income of lump rubber farmers who use ant acid and alum freezers.

Abstract

Coffee is not only a regular consumption but can also be said to be part of today's lifestyle. However, despite the popularity of coffee products among the public, many people do not know the contents of coffee which are beneficial for the body. There are many antioxidant compounds in coffee, and antioxidants are an antidote to free radicals, inhibiting oxidation. The post-harvest process of coffee and the fermentation process during post-harvest coffee can affect the content and compounds contained in coffee. Fermentation generally uses bacteria, fungi, and yeast. The type of yeast used in research is Saccharomyces cerevisiae; its metabolic products can influence the antioxidant content of coffee beans. This research aims to determine the effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae concentration on antioxidant activity in coffee beans. This research treatment consisted of without the adding starter (A), fermentation with a concentration of 1.5% (B), fermentation with a concentration of 2% (C), fermentation with a concentration of 2.5% (D), fermentation with a concentration of 3% (E). The data obtained were analyzed statistically using ANOVA and continued with DNMRT at the 5% level. Chlorogenic acid and caffeine were tested using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to determine how much of these compounds are contained in the coffee beans. The results of this research show that differences in Saccharomyces cerevisiae concentrations significantly affect the 5% level of the degree of acidity (pH) and antioxidant activity. The best treatment was obtained in treatment E, with a pH value of 5.9 and antioxidant activity of 54.72%.

Abstract

This study employs a quantitative research method to examine the impact of the number of MSMEs and poverty rates on unemployment rates in Indonesia from 2011 to 2022, utilizing data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS Indonesia) and Bank Indonesia. The analysis reveals a significant relationship between the increase in MSMEs, poverty index fluctuations, and unemployment rate changes during this period. The findings demonstrate a strong correlation between the growth of MSMEs and a reduction in unemployment, whereas the relationship between poverty levels and unemployment rates is weak. This suggests that the expansion of MSMEs is an effective strategy for reducing unemployment and improving economic conditions. The study aims to enhance understanding of the factors influencing unemployment and the challenges policymakers face, providing valuable insights for efforts to combat unemployment. Additionally, the dataset used may benefit other studies addressing unemployment issues in Indonesia and similar regions. The results confirm the crucial role of MSME development in lowering unemployment rates, highlighting its potential as a viable policy approach for economic improvement.
