Abstract

Shelf life is one thing that must be observed by consumers in using a product. Herbal medicine is a functional food that is in great demand by most people and is still attached to and is a traditional medicine that is efficacious in maintaining physical fitness. Herbal medicine products in circulation and much in demand by consumers, especially women, are "Sari Rapet Super" herbs. The purpose of this study was to estimate the shelf life using the Accelerated Shelf Life Test (ASLT) method with the Arrhenius model. The parameters used are the water content with storage treatment at temperatures 25, 35, 45 and observed on days 0, 1, 5, 10, 15, 20 for one month. Storage with packaging and without packaging. The results obtained, the water content at each storage temperature has decreased. Estimation of shelf life in the treatment of temperature differences with water content parameters is not influential and results in shelf life for the same period. Temperature 25 for = 34.82665831 (1 month 3 days), temperature 35 = 35.3338706 and temperature 45 = 33.38062522 while without packaging at temperature 25 = 10.98902468, temperature 35 = 9.598185153, and temperature 45 = 10 , 95095319.
