Quality Laying Hen Eggs through Soaking Guava (Psidium guajava) Leaves Extract
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 04
Abstract
This study aims to determine the extent to which the concentration of guava leaves extract (Psidium guajava) and storage time affect the quality of laying hen eggs. Food materials such as laying hen eggs are easily perishable, meaning that they will deteriorate in quality within 14 days of being stored at room temperature, and will even rot soon after. This study aims to determine the effect of giving guava leaf extract (Psidium guajava) and soaking time on the quality and shelf life of eggs. The method used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with a factorial pattern consisting of 2 factors. Factor A is the concentration of guava leaves extract (Psidium guajava) solution and factor B is the storage time with 3 replications. The treatments used were: Factor A concentration of guava leaf extract solution A1 = 0%, A2 = 15%, A3 = 30%, and A4 = 45%. Factor B storage time B1 = 0 days, B2 = 7 days B3 = 14 days. The variables analyzed in this study were egg weight loss, egg white index, and yolk index. The data obtained were analyzed using the ANOVA test. If there is a significant difference between treatments, it will be continued with the Duncan Test. The results of the ANOVA analysis showed that the interaction had no significant effect (P>0.05) on the egg white index and egg yolk index. Giving each concentration gave good results in egg weight loss. Meanwhile, the egg white index and egg yolk index showed good results with a concentration of 15%. It is concluded that giving guava leaves extract (Psidium guajava) and storage time can maintain the quality and extend the shelf life of laying hen eggs.
