ABSTRACT

Moringa leaves were the most commonly used part of the Moringa plant because they were rich in nutrients. Moringa leaves extract was developed into a chewable gummy tablet to improve its acceptability. The main component of the chewable gummy tablet was a gelling agent. This study aims to determine the effect of gelling agent ratio (kappa-carrageenan and iota-carrageenan) on the physical characteristics of the chewable gummy tablet. Furthermore, this study was also conducted to determine the optimum formula for a chewable gummy tablet and analyze the physical stability of the prepared formula during storage. In this study, the concentration of gelling agents was 2%. The formulas were developed in this study using the various ratio of kappa-carrageenan and iota-carrageenan 1:0 (control formula), 1:1 (formula 1), 2:1 (formula 2), and 3:1 (formula 3). The results showed that the ratio of kappa-carrageenan and iota-carrageenan determined the texture, disintegration time, swelling ratio, and syneresis. The most optimum formula was Formula 1 (1:1). The characteristics of this formula were a yellow color, melon odor, sweet taste, square shape, chewy texture, the average weight was 2.86 g ± 0.02, the disintegration time was 7.47 min ± 0.02, the swelling ratio was 1.21% ± 0.20, and the syneresis percentage was 0.93 ± 0.11%. The result of physical stability evaluation during 14 days of storage also revealed that formula 1 was the most stable.
