Pengaruh Penyosohan Gabah Dan Pemasakan Terhadap Kandungan Vitamin B Beras Merah

The number of improved red rice varieties (red color caryopsis) is still limited, namely Bahbutong and Aek Sibundong. Red rice is useful as functional food due to its antocyanin content which have a potential function as antioxidant. The research was aimed to study the effect of processing (milling and cooking) on the thiamin (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), and pyridoxin (vitamin B6) content of new varieties, local red vareties and advanced lines of red rice. The materials used in the experiment were two red rice advanced lines, local red rice (Jembar Beureum and Jatiluwih), red rice improved variety Aek Sibundong, and white rice variety Ciherang. Results showed that milling and cooking processes reduce thiamin, riboflavin, niacin , and pyridoxin contents on advanced improved red lines, red improved variety, local red varieties and Ciherang white improved variety. Jembar Beureum milled and cooked rice had the highest thiamin and niacin content. Jatiluwih milled and cooked rice had the highest riboflavin and pyridoxin content. Local red rice had higher vitamin B content than improved red advanced lines, Aek Sibundong and Ciherang white rice. Local red rice varieties may be used as parent material on the breeding program to develop red rice improved varieties with higher vitamin B content

The Effect of Heating on Physicochemical Characteristics of Rice Brand Oil

Rice bran oil has a potential in lowering blood cholesterol. The oil content extracted from rice bran isa influenced by several factors such as raw material and processing method. This research was conducted to study the effect of heating on the physicochemical characteristics of rice bran oil. The study was carried out at the Food Technology and Nutrition Laboratory and Biotechnological Science Laboratory of the Inter University Center, Bogor Agricultural University, from February to MAy 1997. Bran used was from IR64 rice variety obtained from a local milling rice in Tambak Dahan, Binong-Subang, West Java. Rice bran was subjected to different period of heating (0, 15 and 30 minutes) at 121oC by using an autoclave, then the oil was extraxted by using hexane solvent followed by standard processing at room temperature (28-30oC) and 40oC for two hours. The parameters observed were oil content and its quality such as saponification, iodine, acid, peroxide, tiobarbituric acid, and triglyceric acid values as well as oil color. The results showed that oil extracted from rice bran was high, ranging from 9.65 to 11.02%. Heating (sterilizing) of the rice bran for 15 and 30 minutes at 120oC proir to extraction increased the oil content. The Quality of rice bran oil extracted met the standard of AOAC

Pengaruh Komisaris Independen, Komite Audit, Dan Financial Distress Terhadap Integritas Laporan Keuangan

The purpose of this reseach is to examine the influence of independent commissioner, audit committee, and financial distress to integrity of financial statement of property and real estate companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange either partially or simultaneously for the years 2005-2014. This research was performed using panel data regression with the help of a computer program Eviews  version 8.0. The results of partially for the year 2005-2014, that only independent commissioner which has influence on the integrity of financial statements, while audit committee and financial distress has no effect on integrity of financial statements. While simultaneously independent commissioner, audit committee, and financial distress jointly have a significant impact on integrity of financial statements. Recommendation for next studies to added new independent variables that predicted influence to integrity of financial statements, such as independency and quality auditors and good corporate governance mechanism

Evaluasi Mutu Beras Untuk Menentukan Pola Preferensi Konsumen Di Pulau Jawa

Java is the most populated area as well as the highest consumers of rice in Indonesia. Until now, rice widely grown in Java is still dominated by Ciherang. This research aimed to study the patterns of rice consumer preferences in Java to be used as one of main considerations for dissemination and new varieties breeding program. Evaluation was done by conducting sensory and physicochemical analysis on five most purchased rice brand of each province on Java. Hedonic and ranking test was assessed by 1000 panelists from all the five provinces in Java. Physicochemical analysis was carried out in the Proximate Laboratory in Indonesian Center for Rice Research (ICRR), Sukamandi. The results showed that, in general, consumer preferences in each province have a similar pattern except in DIY. Consumers in West, East, and Central Java as well as in DKI Jakarta prefer rice with intermediate amylase content, while those in DIY prefer low amylase rice. Gelatinization temperature of rice is mostly high gelatinization temperature except those in DIY that were dominated by low gelatinization temperature rice. Moreover, rice color influences consumer preferences in Java except on consumers in West Java who chose rice not based on the level of rice color. Correlation analysis between consumer preferences in general with all other variables showed that consumer preferences in general were significantly affected only by the amylose content and was not influenced by other parameters. Whiteness degree of rice significantly related to consumer preferences based on color and very significant correlation based on rice translucency and taste

Mutu Fisik, Mutu Giling Dan Mutu Fungsional Beras Varietas Lokal Kalimantan Barat

The physical of paddy and milled rice qualities, physicochemical properties and the functional properties of milled rice were analyzed to study the grain characteristics of four local paddy varieties derived from West Kalimantan. The study was conducted at Post Harvest Grain Quality Laboratory, Indonesian Center for Rice Research in 2013. Method used for physical and milling quality properties followed IRRI method. Functional characteristic was analyzed using LC-MS. The observations were done in six replications. The data was analyzed for the correlation among characters. Significant correlation between characters was further analysed for regression equation. The shapes of grains of local rice varieties were slim to medium. There was correlation between paddy moisture content and head rice percentage, between damaged grain and paddy density, between yield of brown rice and yield of milled rice, and percentage of head rice, between percentage of head rice and yield of milled rice, and between empty grain and broken grain. The functional character relationship showed that Cyanidin 3 Glucosidase (C3G) content of brown rice influenced the C3G content of milled rice. “Sanik” red rice, “Beliah” purple rice and “Balik” black rice may be useful to be used as parent for crossing in the breeding program for functional rice varieties, due to their good quality of milled rice and their high content of C3G. The C3G is considered as anticancer, antioxidant, anti coronaria heart disease and it improves fat profiles in the blood. Therefore, colored rice is recommended to be consumed in a form of brown rice or milled rice with 80% degree milling to retain the C3G content which is beneficial for the human health

Reforming Policies for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises in Indonesia

Including micro firms, SMEs are responsible for more than 97 percent of total employment in Indonesia and represent 99 percent of all firms. The Indonesian government has tried to assist SMEs through programmes, such as subsidised credit, one-stop shops to lower business registration costs and government-sponsored trade fairs. However, there is little evidence on how effective these programmes are or on ways to improve government policies aimed at helping SMEs. We conducted structured interviews with 192 firms across five provinces in Indonesia to investigate the constraints that firms face and how existing programmes do – or do not – help reduce these constraints. We conclude the report with policy recommendations targeted at the Indonesian government and other stakeholders, focusing on the importance of credit and on the need to remove information barriers
