APLIKASI PENGAWET ALAMI BUAH KECOMBRANG (Nicolaia speciosa) PADA NUGGET AYAM
Abstract: Kecombrang (Nicolaia
speciosa Horan) is one of plant tree species, contains active compounds such as
polyphenols, alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, saponins, and essential oils
which exhibit antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. This research was aimed
to study effect of form and concentration of Kecombrang fruit extract to
chemical characteristics, microbial characteristics and sensoric
characteristics in chicken nugget. The research used Randomized Block Design
(RBD) with 9 treatment combinations and conducted in triplicates. The
treatments tested were form of Kecombrang fruit extracts; extract, suspension,
nanoencapsulan-powder; and the Kecombrang fruit extract concentrations: 1% 2%
and 3%). Result of the research showed that nanoencapsulan powder of Kecombrang
fruit successed to extend the chicken nugget self life, such as: to inhibit
microbe growing. Nanoencapsulan-powder of Kecombrang fruit extract at
concentration of 3% was more effective in reducing total bacteria, total
plate-count and total mold-yeast-count, and lowering Formol-value.
