Extraction of Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera L.) through Fermentation System

Abstract: Coconut oil (Cocos nucifera L.) has a unique role in the diet as an important physiologically functional food. The health and nutritional benefits that can be derived from consuming coconut oil have been recognized in many parts of the world for centuries. There are few techniques for coconut oil extraction, such as physical, chemical, and fermentation or enzymatic processes using microbial inoculum as enzymatic starter. Starter with different concentration (1.0; 2.5; 5.0; and 10%) of microbial strains were ad… Show more

“…The production of VCO by enzymatic fermentation includes the usage of yeast, microbe, or the other enzymes, which are effective to break down coconut emulsion . The activity of enzyme is influenced by substrate and enzyme concentration, temperature, pH, and incubation time for enzymatic reaction . Those factors determined oil extraction yield differently .…”

“…The VCO contained high lauric acid, a medium chain fatty acid (MCFA). On the other hand, animal fats consist of long‐chain saturated fatty acid . MCFAs are burned up immediately after consumption and therefore the body uses them immediately to make energy, instead of storing them as body fat .…”

“…Furthermore, higher yield of VCO with prime quality was attained (Senphan and Benjakul (2015). VCO obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis method has safety and is more beneficial than the oil produced from copra by the traditional method because the latter is often infected via aflatoxin or insects producing molds related with toxicity problem during production (Handayani, Sulistyo, & Rahayu, 2009). VCO aqueous extraction involved the mixture of enzymes such as 0.075% (w/v) pectinase, 0.05% (w/v) protease, and 0.05% (w/v) amylase.…”

“…[ 5 ] Enzyme‐mediated extraction of VCO has proven to be more advantageous over traditional methods. [ 6 ] However, the cost of enzyme remains to be the major limitation of this method. Thus, protease from cheap sources especially from the food wastes could be an alternative used to extract VCO.…”
