Abstract

Coconut crab (Birgus latro L.) or in North Maluku language called coconut crab is one of the biological natural resources of high economic value. People consume coconut crab dishes that have a taste similar to lobster, but have a distinctive advantage because this animal consumes coconut meat. Utilization of coconut crab shell waste to date has not been done. While the purpose of this study is to characterize the physical and chemical properties of the purification of coconut crab shell waste. The results compared the waste flour of the shell of an unrelated coconut crab (A) with the shell of a braised crab (B). Obtained total yield 40%, moisture content, ash content, protein, fats, carbohydrates respectively (5.57-5.68%), (49.47-49.24%), (20.42-22.10%), (0.63-0.52%), (23.89-24.20%). While antioxidant activity (30.84%-30.67%), As well as color L* (72.85-70.86), a* (7.25-8.26), b* (8.15-10.21), Coconut crab shell (CC) which is a waste material which is one of the important biopolymers. The comparison of the quality of coconut crab shell waste before being heated has no significant difference, except in protein components and antioxidant activity of 20.74 and 29.95% respectively. Similarly, the brightness level of L*=72.85 in the powder CC is not yet heated, while the cc powder after heating L*=60.13. The micrographs of each treatment also have a slight difference in the shape of round chendering on unheated CC powder, while in cc powder after heating undergo irregular shape.
