Jamu Gendong Bottle Sanitation Total Plate Count

45 Moreover, jamu gendong microbial growth was supported by its availability of nutrients, water activity and temperature, but also was inhibited by antimicrobial content. Due to the nature of its processing that cannot undergo heating, Critical Control Points that has been identified in the processing were sortation and washing. Almost all standard of good production practices was violated. There was no standardized processing procedures, no writtten standardized formula for both temulawak and beras kencur extract, poor personnel hygienic habits, and poor production practices. Reductions of TPC of both beras kencur and temulawak extract was observed, respectively, following implementation of GJGPP. Product microbial load succeed to decrease near enough the maximum recommended standards and are negative in Salmonella sp. and Staphylococcus sp. Results on air sanitation before and after implementation showed a slight decrease, therefore environmental hygiene practices was not as critical as personnel hygiene. Beras kencur extract had the higher microbial load compare to temulawak extract from both producers. Producer B had the higher microbial load for both products but also the highest microbial load reduction compare to producer A. Producer B had also the higher microbial load for both product on the salmonella analysis compare to producer A. While producer A had the highest microbial load for both product bottles but also the highest microbial load reduction compare to producer B.

5.2 Recommendations

The findings suggest that there should be a continuing research on the optimization of the guideline design and practices. A focus on the serving of the product on field for vendor practices in order to ensure safety and consumer protection. Microbial contamination during sale as safety is of particular concern with ready-to-drink beverage products that may pose potential risks for public health especially for vulnerable people.
