Abstract

Shrimp shell is one of the potential sources for the production of chitin which can be converted into its derivative products, namely glucosamine and oligosaccharides. This study aims to study the degradation of shrimp shells by actinomycetes into chitin derivative products. Actinomycetes 19C38A1 were obtained from the UPT LTSIT deposit. Furthermore, actinomycetes were cultured using a solid state fermentation method using shrimp shell media. The fermentation process on the surface of the shrimp shells was observed using the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) technique. The fermentation results were analyzed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The results of the observation of the surface morphology of the shrimp shells showed that there was degradation of the shrimp shells. The interpretation of the analysis data of fermented products showed the formation of glucosamine of 29 mg. Further analysis on days 6 and 8 showed a decrease in glucosamine levels by 20 mg and 15 mg, respectively. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that 19C38A1 isolate was able to convert shrimp shells into derivative products of glucosamine and chitin through solid fermentation using shrimp shells. This basic information is very important for further studies related to the development of fermentation methods.
