PENGARUH PROSES MODIFIKASI FISIK TERHADAP KARAKTERISTIK PATI DAN PRODUKSI PATI RESISTEN DARI EMPAT VARIETAS UBI KAYU(Manihot esculenta)

ABSTRACT: Resistant starch is a starch or starch degradation products that are not digested in the human digestive system so that the starch  can  escape  digestion  in  the  small  intestine  system  but  can  be  fermented  by  the  natural  microflora  in  the  large intestine.  Resistant  starch  has  a  positive  impact  on  health,  such  as  preventing  the  increase  in  blood  glucose  levels significantly. This research used cassava as raw material because it had functional properties i.e resistant starch content that can be obtained through the treatment process.The purpose of this research was to study the influence of physically modification process on the production of resistantstarch and to determine the characteristics of themodified starch from our varieties of cassava. The physical process wasdone by autoclaving at 110oC and 121oC. The research was conducted in two phases, making the natural starch from four  varieties of cassava starch and modification of starch. The physical and chemical characteristics of modified starch were tested including moisture, ash, protein, and fat content, pH value, pasting properties,  starch  granules  shape  and  size,  total  sugars,  starch,  and  resistant  starch  content.  Modification  treatment  by autoclaving  at  110oC  produced  the  highest  resistant  starch  content  (36,78%)  and  modified  starch  from  yellow  tuber-cassava which is modified by autoclaving treatment 121oC) had the highest resistant starch content (53,22%).
