Physical And Chemical Characteristics Of Cassava Leaf Chlorophyll As Natural Dye Powder (Manihot esculenta Cranzt) With Tween 80 And Alkaline Type Variations

Cassava leaves are a good source of minerals Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, vitamins A and B2 (riboflavin). In addition, cassava contain bioactive compounds that beneficial to the body, namely chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is natural green dye generally found in plants whose composition contained chloroplasts. The amount chlorophyll classified as good, 18.141 mg/l. This one potentials utilize dyes. Production leaf coloring powder using foam mat drying. Foam drying method foaming technique by adding foam. agent used tween 80 which can produce or froth speed up be easily degraded due exposure heat (temperature), acids, light alcohol. use NaHCO3 increase levels leaves. MgCO3 maintain color purpose this study was determine interaction variations types bases on physical chemical profiles powder. research design laboratory experimental with two variations, base type. there were four treatment combinations. several test parameters including tests, dissolving time, (L, a, b), total dissolved solids, pH, water content, content. results showed variation 80, type had significant effect b value L
