ABSTRACT
Soybean (Glycine max) is a versatile and nutritious plant that belongs to the
Leguminosae family. Additionally, the problem statement for this study is the
effect of different fermentation temperatures on the viscosity of soybean-based
yogurt. In addition, inconsistencies in the fermentation conditions of soybean-
based yogurt can cause variations in its protein content and quality,
challenging for production and marketability. In addition, processing
conditions, including fermentation time and temperature can affect the color of
soy protein products. The objective of this product is to investigate the effect
of fermentation time and temperature on the viscosity and firmness of
soybean-based yogurt, to evaluate the effect of fermentation time and
temperature on the protein content of soybean-based yogurt and to investigate
how processing differs. conditions, including temperature and time, affect the
color stability of yogurt. Our analytical study is based on the viscosity test for
soybean yogurt using a viscometer, investigating the protein content using
KJELDAHL method and seeing the color change using a UV
spectrophotometer.

temperature (FT ) significantly affect the physicochemical properties of soy
yogurt, including viscosity and protein content, as well as color stability. In
°
this study, it was found that increased FT and FT led to higher levels of
viscosity, acidity, and protein content in the SBY (Kim et. al, 2017). However,
it was also observed that the color stability decreased because

1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
°
The problem that this study addresses is the effect of different FT on the
texture of SBY.SBY is a popular plant-blased alternative to dairy yogurt,
which is rich in protein. and other essential nutrients. However, the quality
°
and texture of SBY can be. significantly impacted by the FT . This can
lead to inconsistencies in the final product, affecting consumer acceptance and
overall profitability. Based on studied by Chen et. al, (2019), the quality and
°
viscosity of SBYare significantly influenced by the FT . The study
determined that the optimal temperature range of SBY production is 42℃ to
44℃ with a FT of 8 to 10 hours(hrs). At these temperatures, the soybean milk
ferments successfully, producing a smooth and creamy texture with a mild sour
ͦ
flavor. However, if the FT exceeds 44℃, the texture of the yogurt becomes
grainy and sandy. due to the heightened activity of proteolytic enzymes that
break down the proteins in the SB milks. Conversely, at temperatures below
42℃, the fermentation process is sluggish, resulting in weakly flavored and
runny-textured yogurt.
16
Next, in SBY production, the color of the final product is affected by
various processing conditions, including temperature and time. According to the
research by Dhanapala et. al, (2018), revealed that the color of SP products can
be significantly affected by processing conditions such as temperature and time.
The studied observed that higher temperatures caused the product to become
darker due to the Maillard reaction which was accelerated. at higher
temperatures, leading to a more intense Browning effect. Similarly, the study
found that as the processing time increased, the color of SP products became
darker due to the prolonged exposure to heat. The heat caused the proteins
to denatured and form aggregates resulting in a darker color. Therefore, produce
SBY with desirable color, it is crucial to carefully control the processing
conditions including the temperature and time.

1.4 RESEARCH SCOPE
The scientific name for soybeans is Glycine max. Soybean (Glycine max)
is a versatile and nutritious plant that belongs to the Leguminosae family. It is
the main ingredient used for the production of soybeans-based yogurt.
Soybeans, pandan leaves and sugar are bought from Family Store which
always focuses on residential areas located in Duyong, Melaka. Probiotic
capsules were purchased from Pharmacy Seri Murni Simpang Renggam. The
chemicals used in this analysis are concentrated sulfuric acid, sodium
hydroxide, copper sulfate, potassium sulfate and boric acid.
The scope of the study describes the extent to which the research area will
be explored in the study and defines the parameters within which the study will
operate. For the study, analysis related to the chemical content and physical
properties of SBY using soy milk as the main ingredient because soy milk
(SM) has a comparable amount of protein to cow’s milk, but very little
saturated fat and no cholesterol. That is able to replace cow’s milk which is the
main ingredient in the production of traditional yogurt. Due to the above, SM
is considered one of them as a healthy alternative to cow’s milk. Researchers
like to identify whether through analysis SBY will have viscosity, protein
content and color in each part that is affected by FT and FT°. The method used
for analysis is DV-1 VISKOMETER to measure the viscosity of yogurt,
SPECTROPHOTOMETER SP-UV 200 to determine the good color of
yogurt and finally using PROTEIN ANALYZER 1 (VELP UDK 159) to
determine the optimal protein content in yogurt. In this research, using a FT for
°
6 hours but different FT (30°C, 42°C and 47°C).
18
For physical analysis involving viscosity and color. The texture and
viscosity of yogurt are important sensory properties which affects the
°
consumer’s perception of the product. FT is a critical factor in yogurt
production as it affects growth and activity bacteria responsible for
°
fermentation. Research has been conducted to determine the effect of FT
on soy-based physical properties yogurt. In addition, processing
temperature is one of the critical parameters that affect the color stability of
yogurt. During the yogurt making process, milk is heated to a certain
temperature to denature milk proteins and promote the growth of lactic acid
bacteria. The heating temperature can vary depending on the type of yogurt
and the desired texture and taste. Finally, involving chemical analysis which
°
is the protein content. FT and FT can significantly affect the protein content
and quality of SBY.

1.5 SIGNIFICANT OF STUDY
20
Moreover, the processing conditions, including temperature time and
temperature can affect the color of SP product. In this study, the impact of
various processing conditions, such as temperature and time, on the color
stability of soy protein isolate was explored (Zhang et. al, 2021). The
researchers discovered that increased processing temperatures and prolonged
processing times led to the production of soy protein products with a darker
color. Additionally, this effect was more noticeable when the pH levels were
alkaline.
21
and the pH of the yogurt also impact its thickness. The increased production of
lactic acid at 42°C leads to a rapid decrease in pH, which can further influence
the viscosity of the soy-based yogurt. To achieve the desired thickness in the
final product, careful temperature control during fermentation is necessary. It
is recommended to use a lower temperature range to produce SBY with
moderately thick viscosity.
Fermenting soy-based yogurt at 47°C for 6 hrs is expected to produce a
thicker and more viscous product due to the critical role of fermentation
temperature in the activity of lactic acid bacteria. This bacterium converts
lactose into lactic acid during fermentation, causing the milk proteins to form a
gel-like structure that determines the texture and viscosity of the final product.
Previous research (Cruz et. al, 2019) has shown that the optimal temperature
range for soy-based yogurt production is 40-47°C, and higher temperatures can
result in undesirable flavor, texture, and viscosity. However, higher
temperatures are expected to increase microbial activity and lactic acid
production, leading to a thicker and more viscous SBY product

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.2 SOY-BASED YOGURT
SBY can be produced by fermenting soy milk, which is made from ground
SB and water and can be used as a base for yogurt production. The addition of
bacterial cultures such as L. Bulgaricus and Streptococcus Thermophilus to soy
milk leads to the fermentation process that produces SBY. Another study
(Shokryazdan et. al, 2019), explored the effects of probiotic bacteria on SBY
and found that the inclusion of L. Rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium Lactis
enhanced its nutritional properties and health benefits. While SBY may have a
slightly different taste and texture compared to dairy- based yogurt, research
has shown that it is generally well-received by consumers, particularly those
with dietary restrictions or a focus on health (Khalid et. al, 2021).

factor in the production of SM. In addition, it may be beneficial to clearly label
soy-containing ingredients in food products, including SM, to help
individuals
with soy allergies avoid allergen exposure. Further research could also be
conducted to better understand the prevalence and severity of soy allergies and
to develop more effective allergen management strategies in the food industry.

2.6 PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES OF THE SOYBASED YOGURT
2.6.1 Viscosity
2.6.2 Color
Kamal et. al, (2021) reported that the color of SBY can be influenced
by chemical and biochemical changes occurring during fermentation, making
it an important physical characteristic of the product. Specifically, the study
found that variations in the concentration of SP and pH levels can impact the
yogurt's color. During the fermentation of SBY, LA bacteria produce lactic
acid, which leads to a decrease in pH. As a result, the SP in the yogurt can
denature and coagulate, causing a color change from pale yellow to creamy
white. The extent of this color change depends on the concentration of SP in
the product. Additionally, other compounds such as phenolic compounds and
carotenoids can impact the color of SBY and also provide antioxidant
properties. Zeng et. al, (2020) discovered that the inclusion of black SB hull
extract in SBY increased its color intensity due to the presence of
anthocyanins, which are water- soluble pigments. The addition of black SB
hull extract also enhanced the yogurt's antioxidant activity.
27
2.7 CHEMICAL ATTRIBUTES OF THE SOYBASED YOGURT
SB are known for their high protein content, which translates to the
protein content of SBY. However, the amount of protein in soy yogurt can
vary depending on factors such as the type and concentration of SM, the
fermentation process, and the inclusion of other ingredients like stabilizers and
sweeteners. According to the United States Department of Agriculture(USDA)
reports that a cup of plain soy yogurt typically contains around 6 grams of
protein(USDA, 2021). The protein content of soy yogurt can be influenced by
°
chemical attributes like the concentration of SM, FT and FT , and the use of
stabilizers and thickeners. Recent studies suggest that increasing the
concentration of SM, fermenting for longer periods at higher temperatures, and
adding specific stabilizers can significantly boost the protein content of SBY.

3.3 MATERIALS AND METHOD
3.3.1 MATERIALS
Soybeans, pandan leaves and sugar were purchased from Family Store that
always focusses on residential area which located in Duyong, Melaka.
Probiotic capsule was purchased from Pharmacy Seri Murni Simpang
Renggam. Chemical used in the present work were concentrated H2SO4,
sodium hydroxide, copper sulphate, potassium sulphate and boric acid.
About 500g soybean were first washed and soaked in water for two
hours.Then,drainned the soybeans and rinsed them well. The soaked soybeans
were ground and pressed into bean curd with 1350ml water. Auto seperation
by bean curd machine were seperated into soymilk and soybeans dreg. The
soymilk was pour into a pot and added with pandan essence heated to 82℃ for
15 minutes. The heated soymilk was then cooled to room temperature which
below to 55℃. About 1.79g of probiotic capsules which Lactobacillus
Acidophiles strain was added into pasteurized soymilk with also by added
60gram of sugar.
Then it will divided into difference three formulations which the sample
fermented with the same fermentation time for 6 hours but in difference
fermentation temperature such 30℃, 42℃ and 47℃.

A clean, dry beaker was used to pour the required amount of SBY, which
was 50 ml. The viscometer used was calibrated according to the manufacturer's
instructions, using a standard calibration fluid with a known viscosity. The
viscosity of the SBY was then measured using a Brookfield Viscometer, and
spindle number four was determined to be the most suitable choice for the
expected viscosity. The spindle was carefully attached and inserted into the
sample, and a rotational speed of 21rpm was selected to ensure stability. The
viscosity of the sample was measured and recorded, with three measurements
taken for each starter culture and an average calculated.

mixed thoroughly using a magnetic stirrer, and 1 ml of the sample is
transferred into a glass cuvette using a pipette. Another glass cuvette is filled
with deionized water, which will serve as the blank. Next, the
spectrophotometer is turned on and allowed to warm up for 15 minutes. The
wavelength is adjusted to the desired setting, typically between 400-700 nm for
food products, and the spectrophotometer is set to measure the absorbance of
light. Calibration is then performed by placing the blank cuvette into the
spectrophotometer and setting the absorbance to zero. The blank cuvette is then
replaced with the sample cuvette, and the absorbance is recorded. This process
is repeated for each sample at the desired wavelengths, and the absorbance
readings for each sample are recorded in a data table. The absorbance readings
are then converted to color values using appropriate color measurement
software, and the color data is analyzed using statistical software to identify
any significant differences among the samples. Measuring the color of soy-
based yogurt using a spectrophotometer is a crucial step in product
development and quality control, as factors such as processing conditions,
storage temperature, and the type and amount of coloring agents used can all
influence the color of the final product.
