Abstract

Brown Tiger Shrimp (Penaeus esculentus) is a fishery export commodity that has high
potential and categorize major commercial value.The waste in the form of shell produced
from the shrimp industry has not been used properly and efficiently. In fact, most of it is
waste that also pollutes the environment.Shrimp shell contained a lot of carotenoid
pigments which are antioxidants, one of which is β-carotene.The aim of the study was to
determine the amount of β-carotene and antioxidant activity in the chloroform extract of
BrownTiger shrimp shell (Penaeus esculentus). The study used maceration method with
chloroform to obtain β-carotene extract then the total content was measured using UV-Vis
spectrophotometry.Testing the antioxidant activity of β-carotene and chloroform βcarotene extract of Brown Tiger shrimp shell (Penaeus esculentus) was carried out
through free radical scavenging using the ABTS method (2,2-azinobis- [3-
ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid]).Chloroform β-carotene extract of Brown Tiger
shrimp shell (Penaeus esculentus) contained β-carotene 618.2 µg / g of extract (0.06182%
per gram of extract), and had weak antioxidant activity with IC50 value of 396.660
mg/L.β-carotene as a comparison compound has an IC50 value of 114.838 with moderate
antioxidant activity category. The conclusion of this study was the chloroform β-carotene
extract of Brown Tiger shrimp skin (Penaeus esculentus) contained β-carotene
compounds and had weak antioxidant activity index.
