Research on fermentation time and the addition of milk powder to egg albumen is still limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity and chemical characteristics of fermented egg albumen using different levels of full cream milk powder and different microbial fermentation times. This study used a completely randomized factorial pattern design, 4 x 5 treatments with 4 replications. Research materials include egg albumen, full cream milk powder and mixed Lactic Acid Bacteria (L. bulgaricus, L.achidopillus, and Streptococcus thermopillus). The research treatments were the addition of powdered milk in different level (%) including, 0, 2, 4 and 6. Fermentation times were 0, 12, 24, 36, and 48 h, respectively. The results showed that the addition of powdered milk in different level and fermentation time had no significant effect on the antioxidant activity. The addition of different-level powdered milk was not significant on the glucose content and total protein, but it was very significant (P<0.01) on water content. The fermentation time had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on glucose levels and total protein, but it had no significant effect on the water content of albumen fermentation. Antioxidant activity did not change during the fermentation time and the addition of different-level milk powder. The 24 h fermentation time could reduce the total protein and glucose levels of egg albumen. Adding 2% milk powder could reduce the water content of egg albumen fermentation.

Free radicals are one of the triggering factors for degenerative diseases. Free radical activity can be minimized or prevented in the presence of antioxidant compounds. The butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) has long been used as a traditional medicine to cure various diseases. Previous research has shown that the Butterfly pea flower has bioactive compounds, one of which is flavonoids, which act as antioxidants. Butterfly pea flower can be used as another substitute in making black tea-based kombucha drinks. Kombucha fermentation can increase the benefits of Butterfly pea flower with the presence of organic acids, minerals, and vitamins produced during the fermentation process. This study aims to determine the effect of fermentation time on chemical characteristics including pH, reducing sugar content, and antioxidant activity. Based on analysis of variance ANOVA showed that the length of time fermentation had a very significant effect (P>0.01) on pH, reducing sugar content and antioxidant activity of black tea and Butterfly pea flower kombucha. The longer the fermentation time, the lower the pH and sugar content in the medium. Optimum antioxidant activity occurred on the 8th day of fermentation in the variation of treatment P3 (3:3) which was 89.74%. These results indicate that black tea kombucha and Butterfly pea flower are categorized as having high antioxidant activity at the interval of 68.45% to 89.74%.

The antioxidant content in tempeh is dominated by isoflavones, but has a relatively low antioxidant activity (IC50). The addition of natural pigments is a solution to increase the antioxidant activity of tempeh. However, natural pigments are very susceptible to damage due to environmental factors, therefore it is necessary to coat with a polysaccharyde such as carrageenan to protect pigments. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of adding natural pigments coated with carrageenan on antioxidant activity and water content of tempeh. The sample used was tempeh with the addition of pigments uncoated and coated with 2%, 3%, 4% carrageenan, and tempeh without addition of pigments as a control. Antioxidant activity was analyzed using DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate) method at 0 and 48 hours of fermentation. Meanwhile, water content was analyzed using gravimetry method at 48 hours of fermentation. Results showed that the addition of uncoated and coated pigments and fermentation time was able to increase antioxidant activity of tempeh compared to control. The IC50 value of control at 0 hour was 197.50±35.94 mg/ml which changed to 62.52±9.71 mg/ml after 48 hours of fermentation. The activity was stronger in tempeh with pigment, namely 22.49±4.30 mg/ml on the addition of uncoated pigments, and successively 22.10±6.68 mg/ml, 22.88±6.16 mg/ml, 35.35±12.30 mg/ml on the addition of pigments coated with 2%, 3%, and 4% carrageenan. Coating treatment is able to decrease the water content on tempeh with the lowest water content obtained from the addition of pigment coated with 4% carrageenan. The addition of pigments and fermentation time increased the antioxidant activity of tempeh. Coating treatment with carrageenan was able to maintain the pigment color from degradation and decrease the water content in tempeh.

Lamtoro tempeh is a traditional Indonesian fermented food made from lamtoro (Leucaena leucocephala). In Pacitan, it is usually fermented using usar (a traditional tempeh inoculum made from senggani leaves). The fermentation process takes 42 hrs and during this period, there are changes in the chemical and microbiological characteristics of the lamtoro seeds. To study these changes, samples were collected and tested for chemical characteristics (water content, ash content, dissolved protein, pH, and total acid titration) and microbiological characteristics (the number of fungi, yeast, and lactic acid bacteria) every 6 hrs during the 42 hrs fermentation. During fermentation, the water content increased significantly in the initial 6 hrs of fermentation and then tended to stabilize until the 42-hour. The ash content increased, while the dissolved protein content increased from the 0-hour to the 36-hour of fermentation but dropped at the 42-hour. The pH level of the lamtoro tempeh decreased from 0-hour until 30-hour and then increased until the end of the fermentation period. However, the level of total acid titration increased during the lamtoro tempeh fermentation. The growth of fungi, yeast and lactic acid bacteria initially declined but then gradually increased until the end of fermentation (42-hour). The fermentation time was found to affect both the number of microbes and the chemical characteristics of the lamtoro tempeh from the Pacitan area.
