Determination of Carotene in Sweet Potatoes.
The determination of carotene in fresh plant tissue is complicated by the presence of large amounts of water. The tissue must be dehydrated before the carotenoids can be extracted with fat solvents. This has been accomplished in the past by the addition of acetone or ethanol with a fat solvent such as Skellysolve B (8, 5). These methods employ a Waring blendor for disintegrating the tissue in t...
متن کاملComparative analysis of nutritional quality of five different cultivars of sweet potatoes (Ipomea batatas (L) Lam) in Sri Lanka
Nutritional attributes of flours obtained from five different cultivars of sweet potato roots commonly available in Sri Lanka showed significant differences in the tested parameters. The starch level ranged between 33% and 64% on the dry basis and the extractability from fresh tubers was governed by the quantity of starch. The crude fiber level ranged between 2.1% and 13.6% on dry basis and the...
متن کاملA new strategy employed for identification of sweet orange cultivars with RAPD markers.
We optimized RAPD techniques by increasing the length of RAPD primers and performing a strict screening of PCR annealing temperature to distinguish 60 sweet orange cultivars from the Research Institute of Pomology at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. A new approach called cultivar identification diagram (CID) was used to improve the efficiency of RAPD markers for cultivar ident...

متن کاملA Biochemical Study of Curing Processes in Sweet Potatoes.
If sweet potatoes are to be stored for any leilgth of time they must be subjected immediately after digging to a suitable combination of temperature and humidity for effective curing of the roots. The physiology of curing is imperfectly understood because of our limited information of the essential chemical changes in the roots during curing,. Previous studies have been confined chiefly to carb...
