FF UNAIR Community Service Team Trains Sidoarjo Community to Produce Innovative Probiotic Products
The community service team (pengmas) of the Faculty of Pharmacy, Airlangga University (FF UNAIR) never stops educating the public from various aspects. On Saturday (3/8/2024), community service activities chaired by Prof. apt. Dra. Esti Hendradi, M.Sc., Ph.D. held in Candi Village, Sidoarjo Regency.
More than 20 people who were present at that time were trained and accompanied by the FF UNAIR community service team to produce innovative probiotic products that were not only healthy, but also had economic value when sold. From this activity, it can be seen that FF UNAIR fully supports SDGs point 4, namely Quality Education.
This community service focuses on providing education to the public regarding how to make probiotics properly and correctly so that they can be processed into yogurt. Not only that, the community is also trained to process innovative probiotic products by adding various herbal ingredients which of course have health benefits. These probiotic products can include carrots, butterfly pea flowers, Brazilian spinach, dragon fruit, guava, Moringa leaves and several other fruits.
The head of the MSMEs in Candi Village, Sidoarjo Regency, Mrs. Kasianah, was very happy at that time and expressed her thanks to the FF community service team. Through this activity, the community not only gets new knowledge to produce healthy products for their own consumption but also gets ideas and business opportunities.
