Influence of age, farming site, and boiling on pro-vitamin A content in sweet potato (Ipomea batatas (L.) Lam.) storage roots
To maximize the availability of pro-vitamin A carotenoids in sweet potato and to recommend the appropriate start of piecemeal harvesting practice, the main carotenoids in storage roots of 17 different sweet potato cultivars were surveyed using HPLC and spectrophotometry methods, and their variation...
