Production and characterization of sorghum strach and its application for fish ball formulation
The study of extraction of sorghum and the application on food were the objectives of the research. The pre treatment using alkali and location of plantation as determining factors in starch properties. The alkali pre treatment used was affect the reduced of protein content in starch analysis. In this research, two varieties of sorghum were subjected for proximate analysis, characterization of extracted starch and application on fish ball formulation as corn substitute. Isolated starch was then characterized for gelatinization temperature, viscosity, swelling power, solubility and water absorption capacity. Sorghum starch Lombok was better than Yogyakarta in gelatinization process. As higher water solubility index and swelling power at higher temperature have important role in determining textural, pasting and thickening properties of starch based preparation, so for these applications starch from Lombok should preferred. As the water absorption capacities of Lombok were more, these verities should be preferred in the preparation of soups and as thickener of binder. The study of viscosity will be helpful for mixing and pumping operations in industries. In this research, the sorghum starch from Lombok was preferred than the blank sample according to sensory analysis.
