Modification of Rice Noodle Physical, Cooking Properties and Microstructure through Xanthan Gum and Moisture Control

/in /by

Noodles have been a staple dish in Asia since ancient times, taking numerous shapes and forms. Presentation, texture, eating quality, and cooking qualities are all factors that influence its quality. Noodles can be made using either traditional or extrusion methods. Pasta extruders are modern machines that create pasta in a variety of shapes. Xanthan gum is a hydrocolloid that enhances the physical properties of rice. Its functions include enhancing texture quality, increasing air binding ability, and stabilizing dough structure. The amount of xanthan gum used influences not just the physical properties of rice, but also the feed composition. The air feed content is a crucial factor influencing the flavor of noodles. Using a pasta extrusion machine, this study investigated the influence of xanthan gum (0%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) and feed moisture (35%, 40%, and 45%) on rice noodle characteristics. This study found that the optimum treatment was xanthan gum 1.5% and feed moisture 40%. This treatment has the following values: cooking time 5.83 minutes, cooking loss 5.95%, water absorption 274.12%, hardness 0.3887, adhesiveness = -0,0027 L = 75.51, a = -0.53 and b = 8.92.

Leveraging Z-Score and Financial Ratio as Early Warning System to Mitigate Supply Chain Disruption at PT Gunung Raja Paksi TBK

/in /by

PT Gunung Raja Paksi faces significant challenges in maintaining profitability, which impacts its overall financial health. Key risk factors include the volatility of raw material prices, intense competition within the steel industry, and economic downturns. Fluctuations in raw material prices affect production costs and profit margins. Rising raw material costs can squeeze margins unless passed on to customers, which is challenging in a competitive market. The competitive landscape requires the company to balance competitive pricing with quality, leading to potential price wars and further margin erosion. Additionally, economic downturns reduce demand for steel products, impacting sales volumes and revenues. This study comprises four key components: risk assessment, Z-score model analysis, financial ratio analysis, and risk prevention formulation. The risk assessment, covering both internal and external factors, identifies major risks including supply chain disruptions, financing challenges, weather-related issues, major accidents, and steel market volatility. Analysis using the Z-score model, based on data from the past five years, reveals significant profitability risks for the company. Further examination of financial ratios shows that the company’s profitability ratios are generally below the industry average. Integrating these qualitative and quantitative findings indicates that the company should prioritize addressing supply chain disruption risks. Consequently, an early warning system has been developed, and risk prevention strategies have been established.

The Nexus between Mediterranean Diet, Obesity and Climate Change

/in /by

Obesity and climate change consist of two major problems which have severe economic, environmental, social and health impacts all over the world. Mediterranean diet used to be the traditional diet in Mediterranean region with many nutritious and health benefits and low environmental impacts. However, it has been replaced nowadays with the western diet or other similar diets. The interlinkages among Med diet, obesity and climate change have been studied. The interrelation among them have been analyzed indicating their complex interdependence. Obesity and climate change are mutually interlinked while the use of Mediterranean diet can reduce the obesity rates and mitigate climate change. It has also lower environmental impacts, compared to western diets, leading to sustainable agricultural systems. Climate change has adverse impacts to Mediterranean diet due to harmful impacts on agriculture. Our findings indicate that the broad adoption of Mediterranean diet would reduce the obesity rates, mitigate climate change, reduce the undesired environmental impacts of the food production system and promote the sustainable agriculture which is necessary for the healthy nutrition of an increasing global population. The results could be useful to national and international policy makers who are trying to develop policies for the mitigation of climate change and the reduction of obesity rates promoting nutritious, healthy and sustainable food production and consumption systems.

Supplementation of Trace Minerals and Nuleotides in Concentrate Containing Moringa Leaf Flour on Consumption and Nutritional Digestibility of Pregnant Goats

/in /by

This study aims to evaluate trace mineral and nucleotide supplementation in concentrate feed containing Moringa leaf flour on the consumption and nutritional digestibility of late pregnant goats. This research was carried out at the Feed Chemistry Laboratory and Field Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Marine Fisheries, Undana for 3 months. The livestock used in this research as test material for the use of concentrate feed containing Moringa leaf flour supplemented with trace minerals and nucleotides were late pregnant goat mothers aged 8 months – 1 year. This research used an experimental method with a 4×3 randomized block design, namely 4 weight groups and each was repeated 4 times. There were also treatments in this study as follows: R0: pregnant mother goats were given field grass forage (control), R1: R0+Concentrate containing Moringa leaf flour, R2: R1+supplementation of 100 mg of trace minerals and nucleotides in 1 kg of concentrate based on dry matter, R3 : R1+ supplementation of 150 mg trace minerals and nucleotides in 1 kg concentrate on a dry matter basis. Feeding is based on the dry matter requirements of ruminants, namely 3.5% of body weight, with a balance of 70% natural grass and 30% concentrate. The results showed that the treatment had a significant effect of p<0.05 on crude protein consumption, energy and crude protein and energy digestibility with the average value for each treatment on crude protein consumption (g/h/d) R0 23.37±2.76, R1 48 .92±6.25, R2 49.82±6.64, R3 49.96±7.10, Energy Consumption (kcal/h/d) R0 944.73±111.42, R1 1555.28±201, 78, R2 1582.51±220.04, R3 1594.11±236.58, Crude Protein Digestibility (%) R0 53.04±2.07, R1 65.92±2.30, R2 68.74±2 .89, R3 72.80±5.17, Energy Digestibility (%) R0 67.66±2.64, R1 75.60±3.99, R2 76.23±2.02, R3 76.32±3.58. So it was concluded that supplementation of trace minerals and nuclotides in concentrate feed had an effect on increasing crude protein consumption, energy, crude protein digestibility and energy in late pregnant goats.
