Aplikasi aktivitas antioksidan tepung gathot (singkong terfermentasi) dalam edible film sosis ayam di suhu ruang

Abstract

<p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Objective: </strong>The objective of this research is to examine the antioxidant properties of gathot and its potential as edible film.</p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Methods: </strong>The materials used were dry <em>gathot</em>, carrageenan, and glycerol. The method was conducted experimentally, antioxidant activities test of <em>gathot</em> flour were analyzed descriptively. Physicochemical test of the chicken sausage was analyzed quantitatively by RAL with a 2x5 factorial pattern. The first factor was the types of edible film (0.00 and 0.75%), and the second factor was storage time (0; 2; 4; 6; 8 days) with seven repetitions each variables. The quantitative data were processed by Minitab 19.0.<strong></strong></p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Results: </strong>The results of the antioxidant test of <em>gathot</em> flour were antioxidant activities of 26.174 ppm; scavenging ability of 49.37%; phenol of 4,852.84µg/g; flavonoids of 4,520.30µg/g. The chicken sausage for eight days at room temperature has a decrease in pH value, a* and b*, and an increase in TBA (Thiobarbituric Acid) value and water content.<strong></strong></p><p class="MDPI17abstract"><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The antioxidant level of <em>gathot</em> flour is classified as a weak antioxidant, the results in the application of <em>gathot</em> flour edible film with a concentration of 0.75% were able to maintain the quality of chicken sausage until day six at room temperature storage (28 ºC).</p>
