Nutrition content and antioxidant activity of black garlic

Black garlic is a garlic that has been naturally processed at a certain temperature in a long time. Therefore, the new chemical content and formulations are produced. Black Garlic has stronger antibacterial properties, as well as antioxidants two times higher than regular garlic due to it consists of Sallycysteine. The longer black garlic fermentation of Sallycysteine content increases. The study was intended to identify the nutritional content and antioxidant activity found on black garlic based on fermentation time. The research type used was an analytical observation with complete randomized design included making, observing, and analyzing nutrient content (carbohydrate, protein, and fat) and antioxidant activity on black garlic based on fermentation length. The research sample was black garlic fermented at 700C. The experiment was carried out by different treatment of fermentation length was 30 days, 40 days, 60 days, and 90 days. The results showed that nutrient content and antioxidant activity of black garlic during the fermentation process tended to increase. The highest protein content was found on 60 fermented black garlic (7.52% bb). The highest fat content was found in 90 fermented black garlic (5.4% bb). The highest carbohydrate content was found on 90 fermented black garlic (45,476% bb)
