Nutritional and antioxidant profile of some selected Pakistani potato cultivars
نویسندگان
چکیده
Present researcher was designed to evaluate the nutritional and antioxidant activity of the some prominent potato cultivars. The mean indicated that potato contained appreciable amount of moisture (77.5 to 82.37%), ash (1.46 to 1.66%), crude protein (2.037 to 3.062%), crude fat (1.16 to 1.89%) and crude fiber (2.12 to 2.66%). However, specific gravity were in the ranged of 1.05 to 1.22. The antioxidant assays indicated that the highest total phenolic content, DPPH inhibition, FARP and ABTS values were observed in FD 8-3, followed by Cardinal whereas the lowest activity was noticed in FD 19-2. Conclusively, the consumption of the potato will provide nutritional worth along with antioxidant potential that might be helpful for proper functioning of the physiological systems of body.
