PY - 2018/// CY - Leyte PB - : Visayas State University KW - Gelatin KW - Sea slugs KW - Peronia verruculata KW - Physicochemical properties N1 - Thesis (Master of Science in Food Science and Technology) -- Visayas State University, June 2018 N2 - The extraction process of gelatin from sea slug (Peronia verruculata Cuv.) was optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) involving 3-factors, 3-levels Central Composite Design (CCD) which was done after screening of variables using Plackett-Burman (PB) Design. The seven (7) variables that were screened for optimization were particle size, Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) concentration, type of strong acid used, citric acid concentration, extraction time, extraction temperature and slug to water ratio. These variables were found relevant in sea slug gelatin extraction during preliminary experiment. Screening results suggested that factors that were highly influential for the extraction of gelatin were extraction time, extraction temperature and slug to water ratio. Optimization results showed that the optimum conditions to process the extraction of gelatin from sea slug obtained when extraction temperature is reached at the maximum level of 98°C and a slug to water ratio of 1: 11.3, regardless of the extraction time UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=05dde25a5253b1781c4fe97cce9b5ed2 UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=6eb000f716b05ea65265789ca886c469 ER -
