ABSTRACT: Purple-fleshed sweet potatoes are rich in phenolic compounds, such as anthocyanins, and also exhibit hypoglycemic properties. Anthocyanins natural antioxidants with the capacity to inhibit or delay injuries caused by free radicals. Drying is one of most commonly used vegetable preservation methods; although,it has parameters that affect sensory physicochemical properties final product...

Purple was obtained by extracting fresh tubers using ethanol 95% medical grade (PSPTE-95%) 96% analytical (PSPTE-96%). Three variations maceration stage extracted samples. The used for a phytochemical test applied Based on research conducted, rendemen...

In sub-Saharan Africa, sweetpotato (Impomoea batatas L.) production is greatly constrained by sweetpotato virus disease (SPVD) complex. This study was conducted to assess the incidence of viruses in healthy-looking sweetpotato in Uganda and to optimise modern technologies for virus diagnosis. A collection of healthy-looking sweetpotato vines from central Uganda were serologically assayed for sw...

Purpose: To analyze the physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility of sweet potato starch phosphodiester prepared using sodium trimetaphosphate. Methods: The physicochemical properties of sweet potato starch phosphodiester were analyzed by using infrared spectrometry (IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and rapid visco-analyser (RVA). In addition, an in vitro digestibility m...
