PENINGKATAN POTENSI PATI PORANG (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume) UNTUK PRODUK PANGAN DENGAN PENGHILANGAN KALSIUM OKSALATNYA MENGGUNAKAN ASAM SITRAT
Porang starch free of calcium oxalate is a potential source in increasing food availability and security. Research on th e removal of calcium oxalate from porang starch was aimed at obtaining a method for removing calcium oxalate from porang starch using immersion in citric acid solution and producing calcium oxalatestarch as well as studying the physical and chemical free characteristics of porang starch. This study used a Completely Randomized Factorial Design (RALF) with two treatment factors. The treatmen was repeated three times. Porang starch from Asia Prima Konjac Factory removed its calcium oxalate content using soak ing in citric acid solution at different concentrations (0%, 5%, 10% and 15%) for 30 minutes of soaking time. Parameters observed were calcium oxalate content, ash content, water content, whiteness degree, swelling power and water solubility index. The res ults of this study indicated that the concentration of citric acid significantly affected the ash content, moisture content and whiteness of porang starch. The effect of agitation has a significant effect on the ash content of porang starch. The A2B1 treat ment (15% citric acid without agitation) was the best treatment based on the decrease in the lowest calcium oxalate content, namely 1,15% with an ash content of 3,67%, a moisture content of 8,33%, whiteness of 75,53, swelling power of 9,24 g/g and a water solubility index of 4,21%.
