Buah Delima (Punica granatum L.) merupakan tanaman yang memiliki banyak manfaat, diantaranya memiliki kandungan antioksidan. Kandungan antioksidan dalam buah delima yang utama adalah vitamin C. Vitamin C sebagai antioksidan dibutuhkan dalam sistem imun untuk menjaga kekebalan tubuh dan juga dapat menjaga elastisitas kulit. Kandungan vitamin C dari buah delima dapat diperoleh dengan cara ekstraksi. Vitamin C tidak tahan pada suhu yang tinggi, sehingga dibutuhkan teknologi ekstraksi yang tepat. Ultrasound Assisted Extraction (UAE) merupakan ekstraksi ultrasonikasi yang dipilih karena tidak menggunakan suhu yang tinggi dan waktu ekstraksi lebih singkat. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan kondisi UAE optimum yang meliputi kombinasi 3 variabel, yaitu amplitudo, waktu, dan jumlah pelarut yang menghasilkan vitamin C optimum dari ekstrak daging buah delima. Tipe alat UAE yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah tipe Qsonica – Q500 (500 W, 20 kHz). Metode penelitian adalah eksperimental laboratorium menggunakan RSM (Response Surface Methodology) tipe CCD (Central Composite Design) dengan amplitudo minimum 40% dan maksimum 50%; waktu minimum 20 menit dan maksimum 25 menit; dan jumlah pelarut minimum 150 ml dan maksimum 225 ml. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa banyaknya jumlah pelarut memberikan pengaruh yang nyata, sedangkan amplitudo dan lama waktu ekstraksi tidak berpengaruh nyata. Model signifikan pada nilai P < 0,05 dengan kondisi UAE optimum pada kombinasi perlakuan amplitudo 50%, waktu 25 menit, dan jumlah pelarut 150 ml yang menghasilkan nilai kadar vitamin C optimum sebesar 47,79 mg/100 gram.

Comparison Of The Results

This study investigates the influence of polyol compounds (sorbitol and erythritol) on the osmotic dehydration process of pomegranate seeds. The efficacy of the osmotic dehydration process was estimated based on the determination of water loss, weight reduction, solid gain, and effective diffusivity and also through a comparison of the results obtained between sucrose and polyol osmotic solutions. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the osmotic process. Quality attributes of pomegranate seeds were determined through the assessment of physical (texture and color) characteristics. This innovative research applies alternative solutions in the osmotic process, which until now, have not been commonly used in the osmotic dehydration of pomegranate seeds processing by researchers worldwide. Results revealed the excellent correlation of experimental values with the model. Erythritol and sorbitol exhibit stronger efficiency than sucrose. However, erythritol was not satisfactory due to the high solid gain. Therefore, the sorbitol osmotic agent seems to be the most suitable for the osmotic dehydration of pomegranate seeds. The optimal condition for maximum water loss (38.61%), weight reduction (37.77%), and effective diffusivity (4.01 × 10−8 m2/s) and minimum solid gain (−0.37%) were 13.03 min, 27.77 °Brix, and 37.7 °C, using a sorbitol solution. Results of texture and color revealed the major impact of erythritol and sorbitol osmotic agents on seed characteristics during the osmotic dehydration process.

Abstract Eucalyptus deglupta is one of the promising medicinal plants from Mytracea family consisting of bioactive compounds that are to be used in medications. The bioactive compounds present in Eucalyptus deglupta were extracted at the best yield using a hybrid drying method consisting of ultrasound assisted osmotic dehydration (UOAD) and hot air drying in this study. The drying conditions of UAOD were optimised with response surface methodology (RSM) to attain the highest antioxidant activity via of DPPH radical scavenging assay. Four parameters were optimised with response surface methodology, namely concentration of sucrose (v/w), temperature (°C), duration of drying and intensity of ultrasound (%) ranged from 30% to 50%, 20°C to 60°C, 40 min to 100 min and 60% to 100%, respectively. A series of 27 combinations of the UAOD drying conditions were performed and followed by hot air drying performed at 60°C until a constant weight was achieved. A moderate scavenging activity of DPPH assay (56.12%) was achieved at a concentration of sucrose, temperature, duration of drying and intensity of ultrasound of 50%, 40°C, 100 min and 264 W, respectively.
