The aim of the work was to produce and characterize the exopolysaccharides from loss cooked sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) using fermentation with Lactobacillus. The cooked sweet potato was fermented according to the factorial design with the following factors: the time (21.51h-38.48h) and the amount of Lactobacillus (1.58*106-5*106UFC). Responses were represented by production yield, pH, and titrable acidity. Characterization of the exopolysaccharides was then done by determination of total sugars, solubility index and viscosity. The results show that the pH of unfermented cooked potatoes was between 6.23 to 6.63. The pH of fermented potatoes varies from 3.96 to 4.06. The lactic acid content was found from 7.75 to 9.9% for the fermented samples. The production yields are 1.90% for the samples fermented for 21.5 hours with 3.5*106UFC of bacteria and 5.62% for those fermented for 30 hours with the same volume of inoculum. The average viscosity of the products was 4mPas regardless of the fermentation time. Chemical characterization indicates glucose contents of 68.21 and 94.01% in fermented potato for 24h and 21h respectively. The solubility index gives values of 70.3 ± 0.16 and 88.11 ± 0.23 for fermentation times of 21h and 24h respectively. Results of this work indicated that cooked sweet potatoes ferment for 21h was a promising substrate for production of exopolysaccharides.

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) is a food crop that supplies energy, minerals and vitamins C and B. Some cultivars are very rich in carotenoids (pro-vitamin A). In this study were evaluated and compared the total carotenoids content of two cultivars and the losses on the dehydrated extruded sweet potato flour. Samples from organic and conventional crops were analyzed, in the form of fresh and dehydrated extruded samples. Total carotenoids content of the fresh product, expressed on wet basis, was of 437 µg 100 g-1 for the cream cultivar and 10,12 µg 100 g-1 for the orange cultivar. After dehydration, losses of total carotenoids were of 41% and 38%, respectively. The fresh orange cultivar presented high total carotenoids content in comparison to the cream cultivar. The extruded orange sweet potato flour showed the lowest losses in total carotenoids. Therefore, the processed flour of orange sweet potato could be used to obtain pre-gelatinized extruded flour with high total carotenoids content.

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) is one of the main crops worldwide. However, systematic properties characterization of this crop is still required, particularly on the Malaysian local sweet potatoes. Hence, this study aims to determine the proximate composition and the energy value of five common varieties of local sweet potato (Anggun 1, Anggun 2, Anggun 3, White, and VitAto) in Malaysia. For each variety, three different parts of the tuberous root which were the skin, the cortex, and the mixture of cambium and parenchyma were characterized. The findings indicated that VitAto exhibited the highest starch (16.95% – 17.17%) and crude protein (0.86% – 1.15%) contents in all parts as compared to other varieties, hence reflecting its potentials to be further processed for a mass starch production. Among all the parts, the skin contained the highest crude protein, crude fat, ash and crude fibre, which can be further utilized to produce by-products such as animal feed. The findings in this study serve as a baseline for the future starch and byproducts production from local sweet potatoes.

AbstrakInulin merupakan bahan dasar obat yang banyak terkandung dalam umbi-umbian lokal, seperti ubi kayu/singkong (Manihot esculenta), uwi (Dioscorea spp.), ubi jalar (Ipomoea batatas), dan gembili (Dioscorea esculenta L.), yang secara luas belum diupayakan untuk diproduksi secara besar-besaran. Umbi-umbian lokal umumnya hanya dijual sebagai bahan mentah yang harganya relatif murah dan tidak dapat disimpan dalam waktu yang relatif lama. Umumnya dikonsumsi dengan cara direbus, digoreng atau diolah menjadi makanan tradisional, belum diproses menjadi produk yang lebih bermanfaat, memiliki nilai jual relatif tinggi, dan waktu penyimpanan yang relatif lebih lama. Pada kegiatan pemberdayaan masyarakat pedesaan ini telah dilakukan penyuluhan, pemberian keterampilan, dan pendampingan masyarakat dusun Krajan Wedomartani Ngemplak Sleman untuk secara mandiri mampu mengolah umbi-umbian lokal menjadi produk tepung fermentasi, tepung non fermentasi, dan ekstrak inulin. Pada kegiatan ini bahan baku yang digunakan adalah umbi singkong, uwi ungu, dan ubi jalar ungu. Proses fermentasi umbi dilakukan menggunakan jamur monascus angka atau monascus purpureus. Ekstrak inulin dilakukan dengan menggunakan pelarut alkohol. Produk tepung fermentasi dengan bahan baku umbi singkong, uwi ungu, dan ubi jalar ungu masing-masing memiliki randemen sebesar 52%, 43%, dan 40%; sedangkan ekstrak inulin memiliki randemen sesesar 7,47%, hanya saja produk inulin belum optimum bila ditinjau dari sisi warna senyawa, masih perlu dilakukan proses lanjutan untuk memperoleh produk inulin yang sesuai standar pasar. Hasi angket menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar peserta menyatakan kegiatan seperti ini sangat bermanfaat, dan secara umum penyajian materi oleh tim pengabdi dapat diterima dengan mudah dan jelas oleh peserta. Sebagian besar peserta menyatakan bahwa metoda penyampaian materi sesuai, artinya, secara umum metoda penyampaian materi dalam kegiatan ini dapat diterima dengan mudah oleh masyarakat sasaran. Sebagian besar peserta menyatakan bahwa kegiatan seperti ini sangat membantu membuka wawasan masyarakat desa untuk dapat mengolah umbi-umbian lokal, yang semula hanya dikonsumsi dengan direbus atau digoreng atau dijual mentah dengan harga realtif murah menjadi produk yang lebih bermanfaat, memiliki nilai jual relatif tinggi, dan memiliki daya simpan relatif lebih lama. Kata kunci: inulin, monascus angka, umbi-umbian lokal, membuka wawasan, masyarakat desa The Production of Tubers-Based Inulin as The Basic Ingredients of Medicine AbstractInulin is a raw material of medicine which is contained in local tubers, such as cassava (Manihotes culenta), Dioscorea spp., sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.), and Dioscorea esculenta L., which is not widely strived in mass production. Local tubers commonly sold as food raw material which is relatively cheap and cannot be stored for a long time. Generally, the tubers consumed by boiling, fried or processed to traditional food. It has not processed to be more valuable product, has relatively high price, and has relatively longer the storage time. In the empowerment activity of rural community, it has been conducted counseling, providing soft skill, and community assistance in Krajan, Wedomartani, Ngemplak, Sleman to independently be able producing local tubers became fermented flour, unfermented flour, and inulin extract product. In this activity, the raw material were cassava, Dioscorea alata L. syn. D. atropurpurea Roxb., and purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas var Ayumurasaki). Tubers fermentation process was conducted using monascus angka or monascus purpureus mold. Inulin extract was produced using alcohol solvent. Fermented flour product from cassava, Dioscorea alata L. syn. D. atropurpurea Roxb., and purple sweet potato have yield as respectively 52%, 43%, and 40%; meanwhile inulin extract has yield as 7.47%, although inulin product had not reach optimum point regarding on the color of compound. It still needs further process to gain standardized commercially inulin product. Questioners showed that mostly of the attendances stated the activity very useful, and generally the presentation from empowerment team can be delivered easily and clearly to the communities.  Mostly of the attendances stated that the method of presentation is suitable, which means generally the presentation method in this activity can be accepted easily by the communities. Mostly of the attendances stated that the activity is very helpful for them to gain the knowledge of local tubers processing, which was originally consumed only with boiled or fried or sold uncooked with the relatively cheap price to be more valuable product, has relatively high price, and has relatively longer the storage time  Key words: inulin, monascus angka, local tubers, empowerment, rural community
