Muztaqbalah is a small business located in Jetis, Dau, Malang Regency that manufactures aloe vera extract beverages. The problem faced by Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) is that the shelf life of aloe vera products is short, although sodium benzoate has been added. In addition, consumers want a fresher taste in aloe vera extract beverages. Based on the problems faced by Muztaqbalah's business, this program aims to help business owners improve the quality of aloe vera extract beverages. After consulting and mentoring, it is suggested to add additional stages in the manufacturing process, soaking in saltwater, filtering before the aloe vera meat is blended, and sterilizing bottles or cups before packaging. Based on the results of the Total Plate Count (TPC) analysis, the proposed preservative additive is citric acid because it has a longer shelf life than lime.ABSTRAKUsaha Muztaqbalah merupakan usaha kecil pembuat minuman sari lidah buaya yang terletak di Jetis, Dau, Kabupaten Malang.

Humidity-controlled dehydration (HCD) was innovatively applied in this paper to control the growth of microorganisms in fresh wet noodles (FWN). Effects of HCD treatment with different temperatures (40, 60 or 80 °C), relative humidity (RH, 50%, 70% or 90%) and treatment time (5–32 min) on the total plate count (TPC), the shelf-life, and qualities of FWN were investigated. The results showed that HCD reduced the initial microbial load on the fresh noodles and extended the shelf-life up to 14–15 days under refrigeration temperature (10 °C). A 1.39 log10 CFU/g reduction for the initial TPC was achieved after HCD treatment at the temperature of 60 °C and RH of 90%. HCD with higher RH had a more positive influence on quality improvement. The L* values, the apparent stickiness, and the cooking properties of the noodle body were improved by HCD while good sensory and texture quality of noodles were still maintained after the dehydration process.

Atung plant (Parinarium glaberimum, HASSK) is endemic in Mollucas. Fruit of Atung have been used for hundred of years by the local fishermen when they go fishing. Efforts to preserved fresh food (especially fish) were continually pursue by using natural preserver which contained bioactive compound as antibacteria. The aim of the study was to get information on the quality (organoleptic, chemical, and microbiological) of post harvested using fish kept in atung powder and atung solution. Three kind of pelagic fish were used, namely; Layang (Decapterus sp), Tongkol (Euthynus sp) and Kembung (Restligger sp). The fishes were kept in 0,3% powder atung (W/W) and 20% atung solution (V/V), with shelf-life of freshness of 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 hours. Sensory quality test was conducted by using descriptive test with scale ranged from 1 - 9. Quality parameter observed were the appearance, odor, texture, TVB (total volatile base), pH and TPC (total plate count). The results showed that quality of post harvested fresh fish kept in atung was the best treatment and with longer shelf life of freshness; i.e. 21 hours (20 th hour) (Kembung and Tongkol), while layang fish was 17 hours (16 th hour). In other hand, the treatment without atung (control) was 9 hours (8 th hour). Atung fruits were more practical, efficient than the treatment without atung, to be used as an alternative preservative by the sea-boarding fishermen. Keywords : endemic, atung, shelf-life, fresh of pelagic fish.

Ikan tuna termasuk komoditi yang mudah rusak sehingga perlu diolah untuk memperpanjang umur simpan, salah satu caranya dengan pengalengan. Penelitian tentang pengalengan tuna dari perairan Aceh belum pernah dilakukan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari kualitas tuna kaleng yang disterilisasi menggunakan alat pressure canner berkapasitas 24L dengan memvariasikan suhu dan lama sterilisasi (suhu 121°C selama 20 menit dan suhu 115°C selama 50 menit) serta jenis medium (larutan garam dan minyak kelapa sawit). Ikan tuna yang dikalengkan diperoleh dari perairan Aceh. Parameter kualitas bahan baku yang diuji pada tuna segar adalah kadar histamin, angka lempeng total (ALT) dan pH. Sementara itu, parameter kualitas yang diuji pada tuna kaleng adalah ALT, pH, kandungan logam berat (timbal dan merkuri) serta tingkat penerimaan konsumen melalui uji organoleptik (hedonik). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ALT tuna kaleng pada semua perlakuan <1x101 koloni/g, sedangkan kandungan timbal (Pb) <0,0001 mg/kg dan merkuri (Hg) berkisar antara 0,29-0,58 mg/kg. Hasil uji hedonik menunjukkan bahwa panelis secara umum dapat menerima kedua jenis produk tuna kaleng, namun panelis lebih menyukai rasa tuna kaleng dalam larutan garam serta warna tuna kaleng dalam minyak kelapa sawit. Hasil penelitian ini menyarankan pengalengan tuna sebaiknya dilakukan pada suhu 121°C selama 20 menit.ABSTRACTTuna is a perishable commodity thus it needs to be preserved to prolong its shelf life. The Canning process is one of the solutions to increase tuna shelf life at room temperature. Research on the tuna canning processes from Aceh waters has never been reported. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the quality of canned tuna which was sterilized using a 24L pressure canner with varying the temperature and duration of sterilization (121°C for 20 minutes and 115°C for 50 minutes) and the type of medium (brine and palm oil). The fresh tuna used for canning was caught from Aceh water. The quality parameters evaluated for fresh tuna were histamine levels, total plate count (TPC), and pH. Meanwhile, the parameters tested on the quality of the canned tuna were TPC, pH value, heavy metals lead (Pb) and mercury (Hg) contamination, and levels of consumer acceptance through organoleptic tests (hedonic). The results indicated that the TPC values for all canned tuna were <1x101 cfu/g, the metal contaminations were <0.0001 mg/kg for Pb and in the range of 0.29-0.58 mg/kg for Hg. The hedonic tests proved that although all the panelists accepted these two types of canned tuna, they prefer the taste of canned tuna in a salt solution and the color of canned tuna in palm oil. This research suggests that the sterilization process for canned tuna using a 24L pressure canner should be carried out at 121°C for 20 min.

The market of ready-to-eat salads is experiencing a noticeable growth in Europe. Since they are intended to be consumed without additional treatments, these ready-to-eat products are associated with a high microbiological risk. The aim of this work was to evaluate the microbiological quality and safety of ready-to-eat salads sold in widespread supermarket chains in Lazio, Italy, at the packaging date, during shelf-life and during home-refrigeration. The study also aimed to determine the differences between low, medium, and high cost products. Salmonella spp., L. monocytogenes were chosen as safety indicators as specified by European regulations while total aerobic mesophilic bacteria and Escherichia coli were chosen as quality indicators as suggested by national guidelines. Analyses were performed following the ISO standards and in parallel, for the evaluation of total aerobic mesophilic bacteria, with an alternative colorimetric system, the Micro Biological Survey method, in order to propose a simple, affordable and accurate alternative for testing the microbiological quality of products, especially suitable for small and medium enterprises and on-site analyses. The study revealed high, unsatisfactory, total bacterial loads in all analyzed samples at the packaging date and expiring date and a very high prevalence of Salmonella spp. (67%) regardless of the selected varieties and cost-categories; L. monocytogenes was instead not recovered aligning with the results obtained in other studies.
