Abstract
The quality of instant baby porridge leads to nutrient content, consumer’s acceptability and shelf life. The use of freshwater snail flour (Pila ampullacea) as a substitution in the product increases the product nutrition value. The study analyzed nutrients content, acceptability, and shelf life of instant baby porridge. An experimental study with a completely randomized single factor design by using the three ratios of freshwater snail flour KS 0 (0%), KS I (10%), and KS II (15%). The acceptability test (hedonic test) was held on 25 semi-trained panelists and Arrhenius for shelf life analysis. Data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA, Krusskal wallis test, and Mann-Whitney. The substitution of freshwater snail flour could affect the nutrient content of carbohydrate, protein, fat, fiber, water, ash, iron, zinc, and calcium (p<0.05). The substitution could affect the consumer’s acceptance properties include color, flavor, texture, and taste (p<0.05). The shelf-life testing for 15 days obtained results, KS 0 formula in temperature 35oC, 45oC and 50oC is 7.13; 2.13 and 2.16 months respectively. KS I Formula in temperature 35oC, 45oC and 50oC is 39, 40, 41 days. KS II Formula in temperature 35oC, 45oC and 50oC is 6 years 7 months, 6 years 8 months, and 6 years 9 months. Based on nutrient content analysis, the substitution of freshwater snail flour could have enhanced protein, zinc, iron, calcium, and fat. KS I, the best formula obtained has 20 g contribution in one serving, fulfilled the energy adequacy of 14.41%, carbohydrates, 15.36%, protein 17.7%, fat 10.27%, fiber 1.7%, water 0.16%, iron 11.25%, zinc 10%, calcium 35.10% and the shelf life in temperature of 35oC is 39 days, 45oC has a shelf life of 40 days and 50oC has a shelf life of 41 days.
Highlights
Introduction feeding after babies aged6 months.Stunting problems can still be handled during the first 1000 days of life or the golden period
The purpose of this study is to analyze the nutrient content, acceptance product, and shelf life of the formulation instant baby porridge complementary feeding with the substitution of freshwater snail (Pila ampullacea) for development of an alternative food into a healthy complementary feeding local food, solid energy and solid nutrient, which is intended to support the fulfillment of the intake of children aged 6-12 months
The statistical was analyzed of nutrient content of instant baby porridge substituted with freshwater snail (Pila ampullacea) flour with a treatment level of 10%, 15% and not substituted with freshwater snail (Pila ampullacea) flour
Summary
Stunting problems can still be handled during the first 1000 days of life or the golden period (ages 0-24 months). This period is a very important period as well as a critical period of the growth process and cognitive development (Victora et al, 2008). Because babies need more energy increased by 24-30% compared to the needs at the age of 3-5 months (WHO, 2000; Trahms and McKean, 2008).
