ABSTRAK

 

This study was conducted to determine the effect of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and sucrose addition on roselle extract using Response Surface Methodology. A total of 21 treatments were used based on a Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD). Determination of pH and Brix were carried out. For pH, the model used was 4.03+0.39x1-8.20x2-0.05x12-4.16x22-0.02x1x2 where x1 is calcium carbonate and x2 is sucrose. The positive coefficient for calcium carbonate showed addition of calcium increased pH of the roselle extract. Model for Brix is 8.91 + 0.23x1 + 2.20x2. The positive coefficient for calcium carbonate and sucrose showed the addition of calcium carbonate and sucrose increased the degree of Brix of the roselle extract. Sensory evaluation using trained panelists (n=8) showed addition of sucrose increased overall acceptance for roselle extract. Addition of calcium carbonate reduced the overall acceptance due to the lowering of the sour taste.

Kajian ini dijalankan bagi menentukan kesan penambahan kalsium karbonat (CaCO3) dan sukrosa ke atas ekstrak roselle dengan menggunakan Kaedah Respon Permukaan. Sebanyak 21 perlakuan digunakan berdasarkan reka bentuk eksperimen Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD). Penentuan nilai pH dan Briks telah dijalankan. Bagi nilai pH, model yang didapati adalah 4.03+0.39x1-8.20x2-0.05x12-4.16x22-0.02x1x2 dengan nilai x1 adalah kalsium karbonat dan nilai x2 adalah sukrosa. Nilai positif pada kepekatan kalsium menunjukkan penambahan kalsium meningkatkan nilai pH ekstrak roselle. Model untuk Briks adalah 8.91 + 0.23x1 + 2.20x2. Nilai positif pada kepekatan kalsium dan sukrosa menunjukkan penambahan kalsium dan sukrosa meningkatkan nilai Briks ekstrak roselle. Penilaian sensori dengan menggunakan panel terlatih (n=8) menunjukkan penambahan sukrosa meningkatkan penerimaan keseluruhan terhadap ekstrak Roselle. Manakala, kesan penambahan kalsium karbonat telah mengurangkan penerimaan keseluruhan kerana ia merendahkan rasa masam.
