Formula “KE-KAME-TU” high calcium, phosphore and magnesium as basic ingredients for under five years supplementary feeding

Abstract

The "ke-kame-tu" formula is a formula with high calcium, phosphorus and magnesium content using a mixture of ingredients such as moringa flour, cowpea flour and tuna flour. The specific objectives of the research are 1) Creating the “ke-kame-tu” formula high in calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium, 2) Analyzing the nutritional content (calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium) of the “ke-kame-tu” formula, 3) Analyzing the substance content nutrition (calcium, phosphorus and magnesium) of supplementary feeding (PMT) products, and 4) Testing the acceptability of supplementary feeding (PMT) products by panelists. The making of the “ke-kame-tu” formula used a randomized block design with 6 treatments and 3 replications so that the research units were 18 units. The supplementary feeding products are made by adding 100 grams of ke-kame-tu formula each. Analysis of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium using spectrophotometric methods. To determine the best supplementary feeding nugget product, a analysis of variance (Anova) was carried out on the results of the organoleptic test. The nutritional content of the ke-kame-tu formula, namely calcium, ranges from 129.563 mg% (F4) to 521,450 mg% (F6), phosphorus ranged from 493 mg% (F1) to 650 mg% (F6), and magnesium in the range of 709.98 mg% (F6) to 942.19 mg% (F1).
