PEMANFAATAN BIJI ALPUKAT (Persea americana Mill.) UNTUK PEMBUATAN EDIBLE FILM
Abstract: Avocado seed was
found to have high starchs of content and yet it has not been optimally
utilized. Therefore this research was aimed to utilized the starchs of avocado
seed as material of edible film and to get the best formulations of addition of
starchs avocado seed. This research was conducted experimentaly by used
Complete Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatmens and three replications
which followed by Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) at level 5%. The
treatmens in this research include P1 (1,5 g starch avocado seed), P2 (2,0 g
starch avocado seed), P3 (2,5 g starch avocado seed), P4 (3,0 g starch avocado
seed) and P5 (3,5 g starch avocado seed). The results of variance analysis showed
that addition of concentrations starchs avocado seed gave significantly affect
on thickness, solubility, water uptake and water transfer edible film. The best
formulations was obtained on the edible film with addition of starch avocado
seed 3,5% which has thickness of 0,1053 mm, solubility of 22,31%, water uptake
of 64,93% and water transfer of 0,0402
g/hour.
