STUDY ON EXTRACTION OF GELATIN FROM PIG SKIN
Main Article Content
Abstract
Gelatin is an important polipeptide having many applications in food, cosmetics, pharmacy, photography industry. Gelatin is produced from animal skin and bone, and fish skin. Gelatin for food industry is produced mainly from bovine and porcine skin, from which gelatine from porcince accounted up to 40% production in 2013. Low production price and short procedure are the reasons for choosing porcince skin as resouce. In this study, the effects of temperature, pH, time of extraction, ratio of raw material: acid solution were investigated. The results showed that pH of 3, ratio of raw material: water of 1/3 and two extraction times - first at 55ºC for 6 hours and second at 65ºC for two hours were the appropriate conditions for gelatin extraction from porcince skin. The yield of extraction was 93%. The gelatin dried product had gel strength (bloom) of 231.13±11.42 that can be used in food industry.
