Abstract

Quranic food such as pomegranates, raisins, honey, dates, and figs known as food mentioned in Quran that beneficial to human. Effervescent tablet is one of interesting type of nutraceutical product to be developed. However, manual effervescent tablet development incure more time and high cost. Application of multivariate analysis helps in minimise the time and cost. The challenge in effervescent tablet development as a nutraceutical product lies in improving its physical and chemical qualities, consumer acceptability, and therapeutic properties. Therefore, this study is aimed to develop Halalan Tayyiban Quranic mixed food effervescent tablets (QMFET) by using multivariate analysis. The phytochemicals in Quranic foods were screened, and the flavonoid content of Quranic mixed food (QMF) was optimised by simplex centroid mixture design. Then, QMFET was developed by demand forecasting study, powder physicochemical test, objective sensory test, quality test, antioxidant activity test, cytotoxicity test, and Halal Critical Point (HCP) identification. In demand foracasting study, a strong correlation (r > 0.7) was determined between demographic and perceived product quality towards QMFET. A QMF powder had good flowability quality. Consequently, QMFET formulation containing 35.77% QMF powder, 26.68% L-ascorbic acid, 26.68% sodium bicarbonate, 3.75% sweetener, 3.74% food flavour, and 2.27% food colorant exhibited high overall sensory acceptability. The quality of QMFET met the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) standards and the antioxidant capacity are within strong range (>30 μg/mg). QMFET was also not toxic to human normal cell line (HS27). QMFET had comply with the Halalan Tayyiban principles and four HCP were identified and established. In conclusion, QMFET have a high potential as a Halalan Tayyiban nutraceutical product to be commercialised
