Judul: Physicochemical and Organoleptic Properties of Yoghurt With the Addition of Min Leaf Powder (Mentha piperita)
Abstrak: Susu dapat diolah menjadi salah satu pangan fungsional yang populer di masyarakat dan salah satunya diolah menjadi yoghurt. Pengembangan pengolahan yoghurt diantaranya dengan penambahan daun min sebagai bahan alami yang mempunyai manfaat, tetapi tidak berpengaruh buruk dalam proses pengolahan dan produk akhir yang dihasilkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sifat fisikokimia dan organoleptik yoghurt yang diberi penambahan serbuk daun min. Rancangan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan perlakuan penambahan serbuk daun min dengan konsentrasi yang berbeda yaitu 1) Tanpa penambahan serbuk daun min; 2) Penambahan daun min 4,54%; 3) Penambahan serbuk daun min 9,08%. Pengujian fisikokimia adalah pH, viskositas, TAT, dan antioksidan. Pengujian sifat organoleptik yang dianalisis adalah warna, aroma, kekentalan, dan rasa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan daun min berpengaruh sangat nyata (p<0,01) terhadap kandungan antioksidan yoghurt, namun tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap warna, aroma, rasa, dan kekentalan. Uji hedonik menunjukkan bahwa penambahan daun min berpengaruh nyata (p<0,05) terhadap warna, aroma, dan rasa. Hasil uji mutu hedonik menunjukkan bahwa penambahan daun min terhadap yoghurt memberikan pengaruh nyata (p<0,05) terhadap warna, aroma, rasa, dan kekentalan. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa penambahan daun min memberikan peningkatan nilai antioksidan dan peningkatan jumlah daun min yang ditambahkan berbanding terbalik dengan nilai uji hedonik dan uji mutu hedonik., Milk can be processed into one of the functional foods that are popular in the community and many are developed into yogurt. One of the developments is by adding mint leaves into yoghurt as a natural ingredient that has benefits, but does not adversely affect the processing process and the final product produced. This study was aimed to analyze the physicochemical and organoleptic properties of yogurt with the addition of min leaf powder. This study was used a completely randomized design with the addition of mint leaf powder at different concentrations, namely 1) Without the addition of mint leaf powder; 2) Addition of 4.54% mint leaf powder; 3) Addition of 9.08% mint leaf powder.. The organoleptic properties analyzed were color, aroma, viscosity, and taste. The results showed that the addition of mint leaves had a very significant effect (p<0.01) on antioxidant level of yoghurt, but had no significant effect on color, aroma, taste, and viscosity. The hedonic test showed that the addition of mint leaves had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the color, aroma, and taste. The results of the hedonic quality test showed that the addition of mint leaves to yogurt had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the color, aroma, taste, and viscosity. Thus, it can be concluded that the addition of mint leaves increased the antioxidant level, but the increase in the number of mint leaves added was also inversely proportional to the value of the hedonic test and the hedonic quality test.

Judul: Physicochemical Characteristics, Antioxidant Activity, and Organoleptical Quality of Greek Yogurt with Addition of Pomegranate Peels Extract
Abstrak: Yoghurt termasuk produk pangan fungsional yang sering dimodifikasi salah satunya dengan penambahan sumber komponen bioaktif alami seperti ekstrak kulit delima (Punica granatum L.). Penelitian bertujuan untuk menganalisis karakteristik fisikokimia, aktivitas antioksidan, dan mutu organoleptik greek yoghurt dengan penambahan ekstrak kulit delima pada taraf berbeda. Greek yoghurt diberi penambahan ekstrak kulit delima sebanyak 0% (kontrol), 0,5%, 1,5%, dan 2,5% dari berat greek yoghurt kontrol. Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan penambahan ekstrak kulit delima sebagai perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan ekstrak kulit delima pada greek yoghurt berpengaruh nyata (p<0,05) terhadap penurunan pH dan peningkatan aktivitas serta kapasitas antioksidan. Penambahan ekstrak kulit delima meningkatkan kesukaan panelis terhadap atribut rasa namun berlaku sebaliknya pada atribut warna. Makin besar taraf ekstrak kulit delima mengakibatkan kenaikan intensitas warna, aroma, dan rasa ekstrak kulit delima. Sebagai kesimpulan, penambahan 1,5% ekstrak kulit delima dapat memperbaiki karakteristik fisikokimia dan meningkatkan aktivitas antioksidan dengan mutu organoleptik greek yoghurt yang lebih baik., Yogurt is a functional food that is often modified by adding bioactive component such as pomegranate peel extract (Punica granatum L.). This study was aimed to analyze physicochemical characteristics, antioxidant activity, and organoleptical quality of greek yogurt with the addition of pomegranate peels extract at different levels. Greek yogurt was added by pomegranate peels extract at levels of 0% (control), 0,5%, 1,5%, and 2,5% of greek yogurt control's weight. The study was conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) with the addition of pomegranate peel extract as a treatment. The results showed that pomegranate peels extract added to greek yogurt had significant effects (p<0.05) on decreasing pH and increasing antioxidant activity and capacity. Pomegranate peels extract addiction increased the taste preference but decreased the color preference. Higher level of pomegranate peels extract caused higher intensity of color, aroma, and taste of pomegranate peels extract. In conclusion, the addition of 1,5% pomegranate peels extract improved physicochemical characteristics and increased antioxidant activity with better organoleptic quality of greek yogurt.

Judul: Construction of Strongly Optimal Binary Linear Code with Minimum Distance 9 and 11
Abstrak: A binary linear code of length n over q F is a subspace of n q F . A code has three parameters that attached to it, namely length, dimension, and minimum distance. A code with length n, dimension k and minimum distance d is often called [n, k, d ]-code. Usually, when two parameters are given, then we want to find a code that has the best value for the last parameter. Based on Gilbert- Varshamov bound, if a [n, k, d ]-code exists and can not be expanded, we call it a strongly optimal code. In this paper, we construct strongly optimal code with minimum distance 9 and 11. In constructing the code, we created a theorem and algorithm based on Gilbert-Varshamov bound before we implement the algorithm to MAPLE programming language. Because of computational limitations, the program can only construct up to k = 10 for d = 9 and k = 12 for d = 11.
