Abstract

Most of capsule shells commercial production recently from gelatin as raw material, but the application of gelatin in hard capsule shells production can causes controversy. That is the emergence of consumers concern about health problem and religion issues.Total production of seaweed in the world reached 30.1 million ton per year that makes Indonesia became second position as the biggest producer of seaweed in the world that produce 11,631 tons per year. The species of seaweed that used in this research is Eucheuma cottonii as raw material to make capsule shells because it contains carrageenan, that act as product stability regulator, thickening, gelling agent, emulsifier and as bioplastic fibers in capsule shells which contains cellulose 20.62%. The elastic properties can be obtained from the addition of sorbitol as plasticizer and TiO2 as filler. The variation with making capsule shells and ends with sample testing. Then the sample will be analyzed for water content, ash content, solubility of capsule shells in water, uniformity of weight and acidity (pH).
