Abstract
[Ebi merupakan udang kering berukuran kecil yang dapat dikonsumsi secara
keseluruhan. Ebi diduga memiliki kadar kalsium tinggi meski belum ada penelitian
spesifik pada genus tertentu. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui kadar kalsium pada
Metapenaeus sp. secara akurat serta menganalisis pengaruh metode preparasi (oven
dan non oven) dan metode isolasi (pengocokan, digesti asam, dan pengabuan)
terhadap pengukuran dengan ISE dan AAS. Hasil pengukuran didapatkan kadar
kalsium tertinggi 6.769 ppm (oven) dan 7.785 ppm (non oven) dengan isolasi terbaik
adalah digesti asam. Terdapat perbedaan serta korelasi kadar kalsium antar metode
preparasi dan isolasi, sehingga disimpulkan kedua metode berpengaruh terhadap
pengukuran kadar kalsium ebi.;Ebi is dried small sized shrimp consumed as a whole. Ebi is assumed to have high
calcium level even there has been no research on specific genus yet. This research
aimed to know exact calcium level in Metapenaeus sp., analyze the influence of
preparation (oven and non oven) and isolation (dilution, acid digestion, and dry
ashing) methods toward ISE and AAS measurement. Results showed highest calcium
level 6,769ppm (oven) and 7,785ppm (non oven) with acid digestion as best isolation
method. There were differences and correlation among preparation and isolation
methods; and concluded both methods influenced calcium level measurement in ebi., Ebi is dried small sized shrimp consumed as a whole. Ebi is assumed to have high
