Abstract

Candied fruit is one type of food that many people like, both in terms of color, smell, taste and texture. Consumers need to be careful in consuming candied fruit that has color, because there are still many fruits that use prohibited dyes, especially Rhodamin B and Methanyl Yellow. The content of Rhodamine B and Methanyl Yellow in candied fruit causes the color of candied fruit to become more striking. Rhodamine B and Methanyl Yellow when taken for a long time can cause liver function disorders and symptoms of acute poisoning. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence or absence of rhodamine B and methanyl yellow dyes in candied fruit, to determine the amount of rhodamine B and methanyl yellow dyes to candied fruit and to determine the effect of sampling locations on candied fruit in five districts of the city of Banjarmasin. The research design was analytic observational with a cross sectional design. The method used was HPLC. The population and samples were candied fruit located in 5 sub-districts of Banjarmasin which were taken by purposive sampling technique. The results obtained in candied fruit circulating in the city of Banjarmasin that there is no rhodamine B and methanyl yellow dyes and the levels of rhodamine B and methanyl yellow are 0. Based on data analysis, there is no effect of sampling location on candied fruit in five districts of Banjarmasin city.
