The processing of food products during the pandemic is growing rapidly, resulting in processed products that are increasingly diverse and widespread in the market. To empower rural communities by improving knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviors, activities and mentoring programs are needed in accordance with the needs of the community. This community service activity was held in the Group of Women's Farmers “Dharma Santi”, Baru Village, Marga Sub district, Tabanan Regency, Bali Province. Taro is an untapped commodity in Baru Village. Processing taro into various products such as bread, jam, and noodles have been produced and marketed by Women Farmers Group, but marketing is still limited around the village. Farmers Group does not have adequate entrepreneurship skill, production management, and marketing. The solution to address partner problems is to provide the right technology for processing bread, jam, and taro noodles, equipment assistance, knowledge of packaging and product labeling, marketing, and entrepreneurship. The implementation of community service activities has been running smoothly. The number of participants who participated in the activity was 10 people. Based on the results of the evaluation, this group mastered the technology of making bread, jam, and taro noodles up to 75%. Further help is needed to the group so that more quality bread products, jams, and taro noodles produced have a longer shelf life as well as wider marketing.
Highlight Research Experimental use of pre-treated pangasius skin as collagen raw material using different acetic acid immersion time Effects of immersion time on the yield of collagen from pangasius skin Effects of immersion time on the proximate content of collagen from pangasius skin Presenting SDS-Page profile of collagen from pangasius skin Abstract Pangasius sp. production in Indonesia has reached 384,310 tons in 2019. One of the main waste in pangasius fillet industry is the skin, which reached to 6% of body mass. Fish skins are alternative for making collagen because it has no restrictions for certain religions and ethnicities. Collagen is a protein biomaterial which acts as the main component of connective tissue. Extracting collagen using organic acids such as acetic acid is the most common extraction method. Herein, we report the effects of different immersion time of acetic acid to collagen properties from pangasius skin. In this study, pangasius skin was treated using 10% alcohol with the ratio 1:10 (w/v) for defatting and 0.1M NaOH with the ratio 1:10 (w/v) for eliminating non-collagenous protein. The immersion of 0.5M acetic acid was carried out on pangasius skin with the ratio of 1:20 (w/v), for 24, 48, and 72h at temperature less than 15oC. The sample was salted-out for 24 hours with NaCl until the concentration reached 2.5M, then the sample was freeze-dried at -40oC. This study investigated that longer immersion time affected the properties of pangasius skin collagen. Different immersion time significantly affected the yield of collagen from pangasius skin (p<0.05). Pangasius skin has a potential to be used as collagen raw material, and 72h of immersion time (P3) is suggested to produce pangasius skin collagen with the highest yield and protein content (6.15 % and 9.26 %). Production of collagen from the fish skin will contribute to increase pangasius waste valorization in pharmaceutical industry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
