VIABILITAS INOKULUM BAKTERI ASAM LAKTAT (BAL) YANG DIKERINGKAN SECARA KEMOREAKSI DENGAN KALSIUM OKSIDA (CAO) DAN APLIKASINYA PADA TEMPOYAK
ABSTRACT: Chemoreaction drying
using Calcium oxide (CaO) has potential to be applied due to its heatless effect and low cost. The aim of this research
is to know the effect of CaO concentration upon chemoreaction drying on
viability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), as well as to know the effect of
carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC) as protecting agent on viability of LAB and to
evaluate its application of that inoculums on fermented durian. The results
showed that the higher concentration of CaO used, the faster velocity of
drying. The highest viability of LAB (68%) was achieved by the treatment of CaO
ratio and culture of 1:5. However, the LAB viability of this research was
considered low indicated that it needs improvement in the further research. The
CMC as protecting agent was able to increase viability of LAB compare to those
without CMC treatment. Application of inoculums to tempoyak fermentation was
comparable as it had highest sensorial score and total LAB compare to those
without LAB inoculums in term of more acid.
