Objective : This study aims to determine the potential of pandan leaves extract (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb) in lowering the total plate count and the number of mold on traditional food.
Methods : After making the water of pandan leaves extract, a phytochemical test was done to determine bioactive compounds, such as tannin, alkaloids, flavonoids, and polyphenols which has anti-microbial properties. In order to determine its food preservatives capabilities, Total Plate Count and Number of Mold was used on a traditional food called Putu Ayu.
Results : Pandan leaves extract contain bioactive compound like tannin, alkaloids, flavonoids, and polyphenols. There were no colonization found in Putu Ayu that was added 15% pandan leaves extract concentration in 101 dilution. The result of Number of Mold Count of Putu Ayu that contain 15% pandan leaves extract concentration showed no mold growth in 104 dilution but failed to provide good fragarance and flavor in food products.
Conclusion : Pandan leaves extract in the concentration of 15% were able to decrease Total Plate Count and Number of Mold in traditional food. |
