Abstract

Rumput laut selain sebagai penghasil agar untuk makanan juga dapat menghasilkan agarosa dan agar mikrobiologi yang memiliki nilai ekonomi lebih tinggi. Selama ini di Indonesia agar telah digunakan secara luas dalam industri pangan namun belum banyak dimanfaatkan dalam bidang bioteknologi. Seiring dengan perkembangan penelitian di bidang bioteknologi, permintaan pasar internasional untuk agar mikrobiologi terus meningkat. Bahan baku yang cukup tersedia dan tumbuh tersebar di wilayah perairan Indonesia sangat potensial dalam mendukung produksi agarosa dan agar mikrobiologi.

Abstract

Eucheuma seaweed from tropical waters habitat mainly contains carrageenan, a type of hydrocolloid potential for hydrogel production. This study aims to determine the characteristics of hydrogel formulated from composite i- and k-carrageenan combined with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) which, could be used further for wound dressing application. The concentrations of composite i/k-carrageenan used were 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3.0% w/w, and the PVA concentration was 12.5% w/w. Composite i/k-carrageenan in a proportion of 6:4 by weight. The hydrogel was irradiated using 60Co g-rays with the irradiation dose of 25 and 2 kGy.h-1. The concentration of composite i- and k-carrageenan influenced the gel fraction, water holding capacity, tensile strength, elongation, and surface morphology of the hydrogel. The optimum formula of irradiated composite hydrogel was obtained from 3.0% w/w of composite i/k-carrageenan. The formula had a gel fraction of 61.67%, water holding capacity of  1067.12%, tensile strength of  32.37 x 10-3 MPa, and elongation of  251.67%. Interestingly, the product with the optimum formula had a porous surface morphology and transparency, which are applicable for wound dressing purposes.
