Description

Introduction: Kombucha tea is a health drink that can detoxify, be an
antioxidant, be an energy source, and boost the immune system.
Kombucha has many flavor variations, including variations with added
fruit such as strawberry, apple, and peach. There are also other variants of
kombucha, namely with added spices such as ginger and cinnamon. Pedada
is a mangrove fruit that is widely available in coastal mangrove forests and
has potential as a food ingredient because it has very good nutritional
content. The aim of this research is to test the antibacterial effectiveness
and antibiotic content of pedada variant kombucha tea as a health drink.
Methods: This research is pure experimental research with a completely
randomized design. The pedada variant kombucha was made through two
stages of fermentation.
Results: Primary fermentation was carried out for 12 days to produce
kombucha tea, and secondary fermentation was carried out for 4 days with
the addition of pedada fruit juice with concentrations of 0%, 10%, 20%,
30%, and 40%. The antioxidant test results showed that the pedada variant
kombucha contains antioxidants in the presence of tannins, saponins, and
flavonoids. The pedada variant kombucha also has antibacterial activity
against E. coli and S. typhi bacteria. The antibacterial activity of E. coli
showed higher results than chloramphenicol, while S. typhi showed lower
effectiveness than chloramphenicol.
Conclusion: The pedada variant kombucha tea contains antioxidants with
the discovery of tannins, saponins, and flavonoids.Nur Lu’lu Fitriyani1, Dani Prastiwi1*
