  Perpustakaan Unika SUMMARY

  Brassica vegetables contain glucosinolates whose some of the hydrolysis products

  can function as anticancer substances. However, the content of glucosinolates is highly influenced by processing of the vegetables. This research aims to study the effect of processing towards the content of glucosinolates in Brassica vegetables, namely Chinese cabbage and choy sum. Thus, the best processing can be identified based on the least glucosinolates loss. The processing applied to the vegetables were steaming, stir-frying without water, stir-frying with water, boiling hot start lid on, boiling hot start lid off and boiling cold start. The analyzed parameter was glucosinolate concentration. Glucosinolate contents were measured with High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) after the samples were extracted and desulphated. The result shows that steaming increased glucosinolate content up to 56,75% in Chinese cabbage and up to 62,89% in choy sum. This research, however, shows an inconsistent increase of glucosinolate content after stir-frying and various results after boiling. Generally, boiling caused the glucosinolate content to decrease. Therefore, it can be concluded that the best processing for Brassica vegetables, in terms of glucosinolate retention, is steaming. i

  Perpustakaan Unika RINGKASAN

  Sayuran Brassica mengandung senyawa glukosinolat dengan produk turunannya yang mampu menghambat senyawa karsinogen. Meskipun demikian, kandungan senyawa glukosinolat dalam sayuran Brassica sangat dipengaruhi oleh proses pengolahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi pengaruh proses pengolahan terhadap kandungan glukosinolat dalam sayuran Brassica, yakni sawi putih dan sawi hijau. Dengan demikian dapat diketahui proses pengolahan yang paling baik berdasarkan hilangnya kandungan glukosinolat yang paling minimal. Proses pengolahan yang diaplikasikan ke sayur tersebut adalah pengukusan, penumisan tanpa air, penumisan dengan air, serta perebusan, dengan perlakuan sayur dimasukkan setelah air mendidih dan sebelum air mendidih. Parameter yang diukur adalah kandungan glukosinolat. Kadungan glukosinolat diukur dengan High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) setelah bahan melalui proses ekstraksi dan desulfatasi. Hasil analisa menunjukkan bahwa pengukusan dapat meningkatkan kandungan glukosinolat pada sawi putih sebanyak 56,75% dan sawi hijau sebanyak 62,89%. Meskipun demikian, hasil analisa penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan yang tidak konsisten pada sawi putih dan sawi hijau setelah penumisan sedangkan perebusan memberikan hasil yang bervariasi. Namun pada umumnya perebusan akan menyebabkan kandungan glukosinolat berkurang. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa proses pengolahan yang terbaik untuk sayuran Brassica, dalam hal retensi glukosinolat, adalah pengukusan.
