Pengaruh Cara Pengolahan Umbi Tire (Amorphophallus sp.) terhadap Kadar Kalsium Oksalat

Abstract: The influence of processing method of tire tuber (Amorphophallus sp.) toward the level of calcium oxalate at Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, State University of Makassar was to finding out the effect of tuber processing methods tire against calcium oxalate  and  know  the  best  way  of  processing.  This  research  conducted  in  experiment central  laboratory  of  the  Ministry  of  Health,  Indonesia,  and  Makassar.  This  research consisted  of  the  dependent  variable  in  the  form  of  calcium  oxalate  in  the  tuber  tire  and independent  variables  such  as  processing  methods.  Samples  were  tire  tuber (Amorphophallus  sp.)  processed  by  boiling  it  (A1),  salt-water  immersion  (A2),  and  wood ash (A3). The research data obtained using titrimetry. Data were analyzed using inferential analysis  technique  and  LSD  test  at  0.05  significance  level.  Average-content  of  calcium oxalate of tire tuber weighing one  gram  for  A0, A1, A2, and A3 respectively  was 0.056%, 0.008%,  0.034%,  and  0.040%.  From  the  data,  it  appears  there  was  the  influence  of processing methods, both those treated with boiling water immersion salt and wood ashes, on  serum  calcium  oxalate  in  the  tuber  tire.  The  most  effective  way  of  processing  was  to reduce or minimize calcium oxalate in the tuber tire processing by boiling.
Key words: Tire tuber, Amorphophallus sp, Calcium oxalate
