Fermentation of Porang (Amorphophallus Muelleri B.I) With Lactobacillus Sp on Calcium Oxalate, Glucomannan, and Protein Content
Maria Chasteleina Leander
Abstract:Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri B.I) is nutritional plant with high glucomannan (~ 55% on a dry basis). Porang has 5% to 80% oxalate of its weight, which harmful for health. This research examines method of reducing calcium oxalate and increase glucomannan using principle of fermentation in porang fermented flour products. This research was carried out using factorial RAK with bacterial type factors (L.palatarum and L rhamnosus) and fermentation time (three and five days) and repeated twice. The results were a… Show more
