ABSTRAK

Batang pisang mempunyai serat yang sangat tinggi sehingga dapat digunakan dalam

berbagai industri seperti farmasi dan makanan. Pemanfaatan serat batang pohon

pisang dalam pembuatan granul instan merupakan salah satu inovasi yang dapat

memberikan nilai tambah. Sejauhmana serat batang pohon pisang dapat dimanfaatkan

akan dipelajari melalui penelitian formulasi granul instan serat batang pisang yang

berasal dari Pisang Raja (Musa paradisiaca L.). Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan 3

formula dengan berbagai variasi konsentrasi serat batang pisang. Hasil uji kesukaan

menunjukkan bahwa formula kedua adalah formula yang lebih disukai. Uji kualitas

granul instan menunjukkan semua formula telah memenuhi persyaratan. Hasil uji

nilai nutrisi formula kedua ialah protein 19,46%; lemak 4,78%; karbohidrat 62,27%;

serat 23,18% dan natrium 0,83%. Hasil uji masa simpan pada suhu ruang (T=25˚C)

adalah 20 hari.

ABSTRACT

Banana stem containing a very high fiber and it can be used in various industries

such as pharmaceuticals and food. The benefit of banana stems in manufacture of

instant granules are innovation to increasing number of the recommended dietary

allowance. This study is showed that how are the banana fiber can be applied in

instant granule formulation. The formulations of instant granules is derived from

Musa paradisiaca L.This research was made to three formula by varying the

concentration of banana fibers. The results of hedonic test shows that second formula

was the most favorite formula. The test of quality instant granules show that all

formula have fulfilled the requirements. The nutrition value of second formula

product were 19.46% protein; 4.78% fat; 62.27% carbohydrates; 23.18% fiber and

0.83% sodium. The test of produce storage at room temperature (T=25˚C) can

storage in 20 days.
