Abstract
The research aims to determine the effectiveness of pandan wangi (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb.) leaves extract (PWLE) as flies repellent and understand its effect on the organoleptic qualities of chicken meat. The study was conducted in a completely randomized design with PWLE concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) as research treatments and replicated for four times. The flies repelling data were analyzed by using ANOVA and followed with Least Significance Different (LSD) test. Moreover, the organoleptic test results were analyzed by using Kruskal Wallis test. The results showed that the immersion of chicken meat in PWLE was effective to reduce the number of flies contamination with a repellent level of 0%; 8.25%; 36.5%; 53% and 59%, on the PWLE addition at 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%, respectively. The results of the organoleptic test showed that the PWLE affected the preference of panelists on color, aroma, and texture parameters.
Highlights
Chicken meat is one of animal-based foods that is rich of nutrients, and complete and balanced
The materials used in this research include clean water, distilled water, flies collected around Segiri market in Samarinda, chicken meat obtained from Segiri market in Samarinda, and pandan wangi leaves collected from Bengkuring area in Samarinda that cut from the leaves’ 2nd to 5th segment
The effectivity of immersing pandan wangi (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb.) leaves extract at various concentrations (0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) as flies repellent were observed, and the total of alighted flies are presented on Figure 1
Summary
Chicken meat is one of animal-based foods that is rich of nutrients, and complete and balanced. Fly (Musca domestica) is one of disease carriers that could deliver pathological compounds both for human or other animals (Haselton et al, 2015) Pathogenic transmission by this species is mechanical through detection of certain location that is considered attractive by the fly, such as certain spots on human, animals, foods, utensils, and other. There are other factors that prevent flies contamination on pandan leaves, such as flavonoid that bind protein and act as antioxidant, as well as essential oils that had unfavorable aroma for the insect. We determine the effectivity of pandan wangi leaves extract to be used as flies repellent and its effect to the organoleptic qualities of chicken meat. Pandan Wangi (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb.) Leaves Extract as Flies Repellent and Its Effect on Organoleptic Qualities of Chicken Meat. Jurnal Ilmu dan Teknologi Hasil Ternak, 15 (2), 69-77
