Abstract

This study aims to determine how to extract the gelatin from catfish bones by using pineapple peel waste as a soaking material in the pre-treatment stage and examining the physicochemical properties of the gelatin produced. Kampung Patin in Kampar Regency, Riau Province, is one of the catfish cultivations in Indonesia. It is a center for producing catfish that produces fish bone waste. In this study, gelatin extraction will be undertaken in several stages: the preparation of pineapple waste liquid extract and gelatin extraction (pre-treatment and main extraction stages). Catfish bones will be soaked in 1:5 (m/v) pineapple waste liquid at the pre-treatment stage for 24 hours. While in the central extraction, ossein will be immersed in water at a temperature of 750C for 5 hours. The analysis results for physicochemical characteristics of gelatin obtained include yield of 2.55, pH of 4.58, water content; 11.66%, ash content; 17.71%, crude fat content; 0.17%, protein content; 64.71%. It can be inferred that it meets the established gelatin quality standards from various physicochemical characteristics of gelatin in this study.
