Modification of Microencapsulate Protein Crude Extract Formula from Chlorella vulgaris and Spirulina platensis for Baby Biscuit

Abstract

Abstract Modification of microencapsulate protein crude extract from Chlorella vulgaris and Spirulina platensis were conducted to get the best formula for baby biscuit application to offer a solution to malnutrition. Analysis method were carried out by the ultrasonic extraction for short and cheap lyses of phytoplankton biomasses; proximate test to determine protein concentration from phytoplankton crude extract and Spectroscopy Electron Micrograph (SEM) to show shape of microencapsulated. The result showed for the best microencapsulated composition were Formula 3 for Chlorella vulgaris and Formula 4 Spirulina platensis , while ratio maltodextrin and crude extract protein were 1.75:1 and 2:1 respectively. High protein concentration crude extract for Chlorella vulgaris addition was 47.45% DW, therefore Spirulina platensis addition was 78.025 % DW. Baby biscuit S.platensis addition was very potential application which average weight of mice in six week was 36.56 gram than C.vulgaris and control biscuit. Overall data showed that crude extract protein of S.platensis microencapsulate was the best material as ingredients in baby biscuit.
