    Nutritional and sensory attributes of banana coffee produced from cavendish banana (Musa cavendishii) flesh at different maturity stage
    Itang, Kris Caresza Kate C. (Davao del Sur State College, 2024-06)
    This study was conducted to utilized and process rejected cavendish banana fruits into coffee. Sensory evaluation (Aroma, Texture, Color, and General Acceptability), Nutritional Analysis (Protein, Fat, Fiber, Ash, and carbohydrates), and Microbial Analysis in terms of bacterial and fungi count were performed to assess the quality and characteristics of the banana coffee and were analyzed using T-test. In the overall rating, T2 got higher mean rating percentage of Aroma (3.26%), Texture (4.2%), Color (4.106%), and the General Acceptability parameter with 3.36%. For proximate analysis, T1 got higher content percentage in terms of protein (3.742%), Fiber (2.21%), and Ash (5.5%), and T2 for carbohydrates (86.8%) and Fat (5.6%). In microbial analysis, both treatments got equal bacterial count (total plate count) of <1.1 cfu/g however, T2 contained less yeast and molds count (fungi count) of 4.7 x 10 (2) cfu/g present in the composite sample. Based on the T-test result, only aroma difference was not statistically significant while texture, color, and general acceptability showed significant difference. Hence, this study still needs more modification in order to enhance the quality of processing cavendish banana into coffee.

    Nutritional analysis of breadfruit seaweed cracker
    Sandoy, Jeally A. (Davao del Sur State College, 2023-08)
    In order to improve consumer understanding and determine the nutritional value and content, and recommend an appropriate intake level, the goal of this study is to give a nutritional analysis of breadfruit seaweed crackers. A total of 400 grams of flour, 200 grams of breadfruit, 100 grams of seaweed puree, 150 grams of water, 10 grams of baking powder, 15 grams of onion, 15 grams of garlic, 10 grams of white pepper powder, 10 grams of monosodium glutamate (MSG), and 15 grams of salt were used in this study to make breadfruit seaweed crackers. This study was adapted from Loregas (2022) entitled "Breadfruit Seaweed Cracker." The Breadfruit Seaweed Cracker has undergone laboratory testing and can be added to a number of products that Davao del Sur State College has introduced. The 8 nutrients that have been specifically identified as being present in Breadfruit Seaweed Crackers are as follows: Carbohydrates (54.84%), Fat (35.70%), Protein (7.93%), calories (57.3%), Calcium (275 g/g), Sodium (4440 g/g), Iron (0.68 g/g), and Magnesium (19.6 g/g). The findings of this study inform consumers about the nutritional value and content of breadfruit seaweed crackers and suggest a proper intake amount. The findings of this study contributed to the development and expansion of the field in maintaining peoples' health and welfare. The findings of this study supported healthy eating habits and offer information on the nutritional content, composition, and health advantages of food.
