Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on extracting collagen from the skin of Pure Breed Garut Sheep using acid and enzymatic methods, specifically utilizing CH3COOH and different enzymes.
  • Results indicated that bromelain-soluble collagen yielded the highest extraction rate at 37.07%, with pH values ranging from 4.01 to 4.76 and viscosity measurements showing slight variations among different extraction methods.
  • Ultimately, the study concluded that Garut sheep skin is a promising source of collagen, with the best extraction characteristics observed when using a combination of acetic acid and bromelain.

Background And Aim: Gelatin is a dissolved protein that results from partial extraction of collagen, commonly from pig and bovine skin. There was no study on gelatin production from goat bones through enzymatic extraction. This study aimed to evaluate the chemical, physical, and functional properties of gelatin from bones of goat using alcalase and neutrase enzymes.

This research applied and evaluated a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) using cytochrome b gene to detect pork contamination in meatballs from local markets in Surabaya and Yogyakarta regions, Indonesia. To confirm the effectiveness and specificity of this fragment, thirty nine DNA samples from different meatball shops were isolated and amplified, and then the PCR amplicon was digested by BseDI restriction enzyme to detect the presence of pork in meatballs. BseDI restriction enzyme was able to cleave porcine cytochrome b gene into two fragments (131 bp and 228 bp).
