SIFAT FISIKO KIMIA DAN AKTIVITAS ANTIOKSIDAN MINYAK KELAPA MURNI (VCO) HASIL FERMENTASI RHIZOPUS ORIZAE
Abstract: Research on
physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity of VCO obtained from
Rhizopus orizaefermentation had been done. Antioxidant activity was determined
by DPPH method. Production of VCO had been carried out from coconut sample
obtained from Pandeglang region with fermentation by Rhizopus orizae in
variation of inoculum asfollow 2%, 5%, 7%, 10% and 12 %. Physicochemical test
consist of density, refractive index, water content, free fatty acid, iodine
value, peroxide value while the composition of fatty acid determined by GCMS,
The result showed that variation of inoculum had significantly 0,024 influenced
the yielded of VCO producted. Based on this result, quality of VCO still in the
range of CODEX Standard, 19-1991 rev.2-1999. It was found that antioxidant
activity of VCO only 6.3% at 1000 ppm. The composition offatty acid based in
lauric acid content measured by GCMS showed a significant result (49.48%-50%)
agreed with COD EX Standard.
