Abstract

Seaweed is directly consumed in Asia, parts of South America, and the Pacific Islands, where there is increasing interest in supporting human health as a dietary supplement and functional food, used as a thickening agent. Gelling agent for the pharmaceutical and food industries. Indonesia is a major contributor to global algae production, particularly the red algae Kappaphycus alvarezii and Eucheuma denticulatum, which are used to produce carrageenan, and the Gracilaria species, which are used to produce agar. This study aimed to test and analyze the content of seaweed products, namely Nata de seaweed from different harvest ages. This research consists of two stages, namely the first stage of seaweed cultivation, the second stage is the process of making seaweed Nata de seaweed. This study is designed using a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatments and three replications at each stage. The results of testing Nata de seaweed from Kappaphycus alvarezii seaweed obtained the results of a maintenance period of 40-50 days which is a reasonable length of maintenance because the results of the analysis of the thickness and elasticity of Nata de seaweed are obtained at a maintenance period of 40 and 50 days.
