Abstract

ABSTRACT The outbreak of the covid-19 virus made the Indonesian government work hard to find the right formulation to prevent this national pandemic. The government is campaigning for a clean and healthy lifestyle by consuming foods that can increase immunity. Probiotics are dietary supplements containing lactic acid bacteria which function to increase the body's immunity in overcoming the Covid 19 pandemic. Therefore, it is necessary to look for materials that can encapsulate probiotic bacteria so that they can be consumed easily. One of them the use of waxy cassava starch as a probiotic bacteria encapsulant. This study aims to determine the use of waxy cassava starch as an encapsulant for the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus casei in increasing immunity in dextran fed mice. The results showed that the number of live L. casei increased significantly 139x104 CFU / mg of feces in dextran feed mice after 30 days of oral Lactobacillus encapsulation. The oral administration of Lactobacillus encapsulation in dextran fed mice with bovine serum albumin (BSA) showed an increase in the production of serum anti-BSA immunoglobulin G 232 titer greater than given BSA alone. These results indicate that giving Lactobacillus encapsulation provides immunity activity in dextran fed mice. Keywords: Dextran, encapsulation, probiotic, starch, waxy cassava
