Bioteknologi Pembuatan Tapai

KD : 4.8 Menyajikan ide-ide atau oenelusuran informasi tentang penerapan bioteknologi

dalam mendukung keberlangsungan hidup manusia melalui produksi pangan.
Tujuan : a. Siswa mengetahui cara pembuatan tapai.
b. Siswa mengetahu proses fermentasi pada tapai.

A. Dasar Teori:

Bioteknologi merupakan cabang biologi yang mempelajari pemanfaatan prinsip ilmiah

dan rekayasa terhadap organisme. Bioteknologi bertujuan untuk meningkatkan potensi
organisme maupun menghasilkan produk dan jasa bagi kepentingan manusia. Dapat pula
diartikan bahwa biotknoogi adalah penggunaan biokimia, mikrobiologi, dan rekayas genetika
secara terpadu untuk menghasilkan barang atau lainnya bagi kepentingan manusia. Salah satu
pemanfaatan bioteknologi secara sederhana dalam kehidupan sehari-hari salah satunya yaitu
pada pembuatan tape. Pembuatan tapai melibatkan umbi singkong sebagai substrat dan ragi
tapai (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) yang dibalurkan pada umbi yang telah dikupas kulitnya.
