ABSTRACT
Mango (Mangifera indica) and pineapple (Ananas Comosus) are tropical fruits that contain many nutrients, one of which is antioxidants and polyphenols. Lots of studies have shown that fermented fruit is higher in antioxidants and health benefits. Antioxidants have been reported to be an alternative to enhance body immunity and possibly become an Anti-SARS-CoV-2. One of the antioxidants that are easily found in vitamin C. This study is to process the fermented mango and pineapple fruits into cookies and to test the antioxidant content (especially Vitamin C) in vitro. There were three variations of the formulation, mango pineapple CO2 free water. Sample 1 (1 0.5 0.5), sample 2 (2 1 1) and sample 3 (3 2 2). Then, all product samples were inoculated with Lactobacillus paracasei 5% b/v for 14 days under anaerobic conditions to get simpler mangoes and pineapple food fibre. The fermented products were made into flour with a freeze dryer. Sample variation is done to determine the average significance of the antioxidant content in it. The next step was Vitamin C analysis from 3 samples of cookies sample using Titration Iodometric Method, to determine the amount of Vitamin C (mg/100 g) and also the antioxidant activity with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The amount of vitamin C obtained in Sample 1 was 100.20 mg/100 g respectively with antioxidant activity is 35.33%. Sample 2 was 95.75 mg/100 g respectively with antioxidant activity is 30.60%. Sample 3 was 107.90 mg/100 g respectively with antioxidant activity is 44.70%. The formulation with the highest amount of cookies sample containing vitamin C is S3. There was a significant difference (P<0.05) that determined vitamin C levels between sample formulations. The mean ash content of the three samples was 2.02±0.04% and water content were 1.60± 0.15%. The average vitamin C levels in the three sample cookies were 101.28±6.14 mg/100 g. Sample 3 indicated the best antioxidant activity towards 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) in the amount of 44.70%. Therefore, fermented mango and pineapple have a great potential to be developed into healthy snack cookies. The vitamin C and antioxidants content in cookies from the fermentation of mango and pineapple may be a great substitute for snacks since antioxidants has the ability to improve immunity and anti-inflammatory response. These cookies are also good prebiotics for the gut microbiome which plays a good role in the immune system. © 2021 The Authors. Published by Rynnye Lyan Resources.
