Moringa (Moringa oleifera) is a well famous plant that grows in almost all parts of Indonesia. These plants have many benefits in the fields of food, cosmetics, and health. The components of moringa that can be utilized are the nutrients and the bioactive compounds. One of the nutrients that are required by the human body is protein. This protein can be taken through the extraction method, but unfortunately, the extract has several drawbacks because it is easily rotten. As a result, further methods are needed to maintain the shelf life and product quality, namely microencapsulation using foam mat drying method. The present study was intended to obtain the optimum concentration of maltodextrin, tween 80, and drying temperature in microencapsulation using the foam mat drying method so that the protein and amino acids in Moringa leaf protein concentrate powder can be protected. Besides, it also was aimed at determining the digestibility of the Moringa leaf protein concentrate powder. This study consisted of three factors, namely X1 (Tween 80 concentration) which contained three levels, namely 0.1, 0.2, 03%; X2 (maltodextrin concentration) which had three levels, namely 5, 10, 15%; and X3 (foam mat drying temperature) consisting three levels, namely 50, 55, 60°C which were arranged using the Response Surface Method (RSM) with the Central Composite Design (CCD). The research parameters utilized were total yield, total protein, amino acid content, and protein digestibility. The results of the drying process optimization were tween 80 concentrations of 0.201%, maltodextrin up to 13.79%, and the temperature was 53.46°C with a total yield of 25.17% and a protein content of 25.377% with the desirability of 0.846. The combination of these treatments also produces 20 amino acid components in Moringa leaf powder and the protein digestibility is quite high, namely 62, 856%.

In two digestibility and balance trials with growing pigs, whey protein concentrate (WPC) was compared as a protein supplement with casein (CAS) and dried skim milk (DSM), and, 30 % lactose (40 % dried whey, DW) was compared as a sugar supplement with the same amounts of hydrolysed lactose (HYLA) and sucrose (SUC). The effects of these supplements on protein and mineral metabolism of the pigs were investigated, WPC contained 42.2 % crude protein and had a high content of lysine, 8.6 g, and sulphur containing amino acids: cystine 2.8 and methionine 2.2g/16 g N, These exceeded the values for DSM. The hydrolysing degree of the enzymatically treated lactose syrup was 73 %. WPC had high crude protein digestibility, 99.1 % as compared to 95.4 for CAS and 95.0 % for DSM. Dried whey had low crude protein digestibility, 72.5 %. The amino acids in the WPC diet were highly digestible, but low values were obtained for the DW diet. On the WPC diet, nitrogen retention was higher than with the other protein supplements (P > 0.05), urinary urea excretion was low and the biological value very high. On a combination of WPC and HYLA protein utilisation was higher than on dried whole whey. On the diets supplemented with different sugars, none of the blood parameters differed statistically significantly (P > 0.05) and all values lay within the reference range. Water intake was on average 49 % greater on diets with sugar supplements than without. Urinary excretion of reducing sugars averaged 40.2, 8.3 and 6.6 g/d on the HYLA, SUC and DW diets, while on the diets without sugar supplements the values were 0.8—1.2 g/d. The following mean daily mineral retention values were obtained: P 4.0 g, Ca 5,9 g. Mg 0,4 g, Na 1.9g, K 2.9 g, Fe 27 mg, Cu 6.4 mg, Zn 65 mg and Mn 4.0 mg. The surplus Na and K on the DW diet were excreted in the urine and the pigs did not have diarrhoea.

Papaya leaves have long been known as leaves that contain meat tenderizers. Papaya leaves can soften the meat because it contains papain which is one of the protease enzymes. In the fresh papaya leaves there is sap which contains 5.3% papain. Meat tenderizer in powder form is more practical and more durable. One of the papain enzyme powder drying methods that is considered appropriate to be applied in the ginger powder production process is the foam mat drying method. This study aims to examine the foam drying process on papain enzyme activity using tween 80 (foam agent) and maltodextrin as filler to help maintain foam consistency. The drying process was carried out by varying the drying temperature (50oC, 55oC, 60oC, 65oC, and 75oC) and drying time (2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours and 6 hours). The results of the analysis showed that the highest enzyme activity reached 408.7 U/mL for drying at an operating temperature of 60oC with a time of 2 hours..

AbstractJerusalem artichoke is widely known for its inulin-enriched tubers. Recently the opportunity has been arisen to involve the whole plant in biorefinery concept due to its high lignocellulose biomass and tuber production. This paper focuses on the repeatedly harvestable green biomass of Jerusalem artichoke. Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Ionization/Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS) was applied to identify the phytochemicals in Jerusalem artichoke leaf protein concentrate (JAPC) thermally extracted from green biomass of three clones, i.e., Alba, Fuseau and Kalevala. Amino acid and fatty acid profiles as well as yield of JAPC were also analyzed. The UHPLC-ESI-MS analyses showed that no toxic phytochemicals were identified in JAPC. The results revealed, also, that JAPC is not only essential-amino acids-rich but also contains substantial amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids (66-68%) such as linolenic and linoleic acids. Linolenic acid represented 39-43% of total lipid content; moreover, the ratio between ω-6 and ω-3 essential fatty acids in JAPC was ∼0.6: 1. Using UHPLC-ESI-MS, the following hydroxylated methoxyflavones were for the first time identified in JAPC, i.e., dimethoxy-tetrahydroxyflavone, dihydroxy-methoxyflavone, hymenoxin and nevadensin. These compounds are medically important since they are referred to as anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidants. Also, liquiritigenin - estrogenic-like compound - was identified in JAPC alongside the following terpenes, i,e., loliolide and dihydroactinidiolide. However, no remarkable differences of phytochemicals, fatty acids and amino acids composition were seen among Jerusalem artichoke clones. The green biomass of tested clones ranged between 5 to 5.6 kg m-2 and JAPC yield varied from 28.6 to 31.2 g DM kg-1 green biomass with total protein content, on average, of 33.3%. According to our knowledge, this paper is the first scientific report highlighting bioactive substances in JAPC such as PUFA phytochemicals. These results clearly prove that JAPC is a valuable product which can direct towards human and animal nutrition as well as it can serve as basic material for different industrial purposes.
