Mulberry Kefir Prebiotic Plus

Mulberry Kefir Prebiotic Plus

Abstract

Mulberry Kefir is a fermented drink made from ripe mulberry fruit, made from ripe mulberry juice. Its pinkish-red color is the color of the natural anthocyanin in mulberries. Anthocyanins have antioxidant properties and contain the prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharides, the probiotic microorganisms Lactobacillus and Saccharomeces. It has a sweet and sour taste, is fizzy and has a little alcohol. The taste and fizz come from production technology, which uses a fermentation process from microorganisms. Mulberry kefir is considered a functional beverage made from plants (Plant Based Beverage), suitable for people who are lactose intolerant and those who do not consume beverages made from milk. It makes you feel refreshed after drinking it.

Texture modification and quality improvement of restructured chicken meat block from spent laying hen.

Spent hens are laying hens that are over 18 months to 2 years old and no longer productive. The texture of spent hen meat is significantly tougher compared to broiler chickens, capons, and native chickens. Therefore, to increase the value of spent hens, a study was conducted to modify the texture of the meat by restructuring it with carrageenan and tenderizing it by marinating it in bromelain solution at different concentrations. The experiment found that restructuring with carrageenan and using bromelain enzyme resulted in a newly formed product and significantly improved the tenderness of the meat compared to chicken meat that was not treated with carrageenan and bromelain enzyme.

Automatic Temperature and Humidity Control System for Small- Scale Household Oyster Mushroom Cultivation Houses

In the present day, interest in health and the consumption of chemical-free food has been steadily increasing, particularly in homegrown produce such as Phoenix oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus pulmonarius), which are highly nutritious and suitable for weight control. However, small-scale mushroom cultivation often faces challenges related to unsuitable environmental conditions, such as unstable temperature and humidity, which affect the growth and quality of the mushrooms. The development of an automatic temperature and humidity control system plays a crucial role in addressing these issues by utilizing sensor technology to monitor and adjust environmental conditions with precision. This helps enhance production efficiency, reduce human errors in manual control, and promote safe food production at the household level. Additionally, it helps lower production costs and supports the concept of sustainable living. The adoption of this technology is considered an important innovation in improving the quality of mushroom cultivation and increasing sustainability in food production.
