Karakteristik Hidrolisat Gelatin Tulang Itik Dengan Enzim Tripsin Sebagai Penghambat Alfa Amilase (α-Amylase Inhibitor)
Gelatin is extracted from beef or pork. One of the potential sources of gelatin to be developed apart from land base mammalian is from poultry, namely duck bones. Gelatin extraction from duck bones can be carried out by the acid method. Several studies have reported that hydrolysis of gelatin using various types of enzymes will increase its bioactivity, such as antioxidants, antibacterials, and antihyperglycemic (alpha amylase inhibitors). The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of duck bone gelatin which hydrolyzed with trypsin enzyme as an alpha amylase inhibitor. This study used nonfactorial completely randomized design (CRD) with different hydrolysis time treatments. Research parameters such as total soluble protein, TCA soluble protein, hydrolysis degree, and alpha amylase inhibitory activity. The results showed that the different treatment times for hydrolysis had a significant effect (P <0.05) on the TCA soluble protein value and the degree of hydrolysis. However, there was no significant effect (P> 0.05) on the total dissolved protein. 180 minutes hydrolysis treatment time with a concentration series of 250; 500; 1000; 2000 ppm has inhibitory activity against alpha amylase, respectively, 39.42; 41.75; 44.58; 48.11%. It has IC50 value of 2.74 mg / mL. The inhibitory activity was still weaker than the positive control for acarbose.
