Sensory properties of iodine-biofortified potatoes

The present study assessed the sensory impact of potatoes biofortification with iodine and stability during six months storage. Four biofortified cultivars (Cupido, Marabel, Orchestra Universa) their controls (non-biofortified) were evaluated. Descriptive analysis was applied a panel to describe properties, triangle tests consumers evaluate perceivable differences between respective samples at end shelf life. Iodine content quantified on raw for three periods showed some iodine-biofortified samples, especially in texture (hardness). However, did not significantly discriminate fortified from unfortified samples. stable storage all varieties. cultivar highest content, while Universa lowest.
