The objective of this study is to identify amino acids in the skin character shank of livestock i.e. broiler chicken, cattle and goat which has been hydrolyzed to gelatin. Besides that, also to observe morphology gelatin product with the approach of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and identify potential gelatin-based on livestock against shank skin as the antibacterial ability on the type of Salmonella typhii, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that the gelatin of the broiler chicken, cattle and goat were dominated by a kind of essential amino acid histidine and arginine. While the type of non-essential amino acids was dominated by glutamic and serine. Morphology analysis of the surface of gelatin with SEM approach showed that the surface structure of the gelatin molecule extraction chicken shank skin was more smooth and flat. While at the shank of the extracted skin of cattle and goat were still many bundles detectable binding collagen protein extracted was not perfect. Potential skin gelatin of various livestock shank was conducted testing of potential anti-bacterial. The results showed that the gelatin of the broiler chicken, cattle and goat had no ability as pathogen antibacterial against Salmonella typhii, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The conclusion of the study that the dominant gelatin amino acid profile is detected the essential amino acid histidine and arginine as well as types of non-essential amino acid glutamic acid and serine type. Gelatin morphology analysis with SEM approach is going on a smooth surface on the broiler chicken. Gelatin test results on the ability of pathogenic bacteria inhibition showed negative results (not found inhibitory zone).

IntroductionShank skin of livestock are by product of their slaughter and during years their potentiality is not used maximally yet. For example, shank skin of broiler chicken, goat, and cattle where all their histology structure is sesame, compose of epidermis and corium. This corium is the main component of the skin particularly on livestock shank skin and dominated by collagen protein (Brown et al., 1977), although in different percentage (Miwada and Simpen, 2014). Djoyowidagdo (1988) said that the older the animals, their skin composition particularly collagen protein and fat concentrations are higher, but their ash concentration is getting lower. Soeparno (1998) said that amount and collagen physical strengthen can increase as the increases of animal age. Swatland (1984) explained that diameter collagen fiber is 1 -12 µm, but parallel fibril connection that composes it is 20 -100 nm. Furthermore, it is said that growth rate of collagen fiber is getting decreases until a certain constant age is richer. Sarkar (1995) reported that collagen small animal is about 30 -33% (dry weight/dw), calf skin (84% dw), steers (87.2% dw) and bulls (91.1% dw).During years, there is no any study about protein potential on livestock shank skin of Broiler chicken, cattle and goat particularly about profile amino a...
