Pengaruh Konsentrasi STPP Dan Lama Perendaman Terhadap Karakteristik Pati Kimpul Termodifikasi Ikatan Silang (original) (raw)

Kimpul is one type of tubers that is high in carbohydrate content so it canbe used as a source of starch. Natural starch generally still has severaldisadvantages. One of method that can be done to overcome theseweaknesses is by modifying cross-linked starch. The objectives of thisstudy are: 1) to know the effect of STPP concentration on chemical andphysical characteristics of modified kimpul starch; 2) to know the effect ofsoaking time on chemical and physical characteristics of modified kimpulstarch; 3) to determine the best combination treatment between STPPconcentration and soaking time on the chemical and physicalcharacteristics of modified kimpul starches. This is an experimentalresearch with Randomized Block Design. The factors studied were theconcentration of sodium trypolyphosphate (1, 2 and 3%) and soaking time(60 and 90 minutes). The variables tested were moisture content, starchcontent, amylose content and calcium oxalate content, brightness, swellingpower, sollubility an...
