Reported content and process stability of phenolics in potato products is inconsistent. Changes in phenolic content of select varieties through fresh and industrial preparation/reconstitution were assessed. Total chlorogenic acids (CQAs) ranged from 43 to 953mg/100g dw and were more concentrated in pigmented compared to white/yellow-fleshed potatoes. Anthocyanin (ANC) content ranged from 18.6 to 22.9mg/100g dw and were mainly present in the flesh of pigmented potatoes. Retention of phenolics through commercial processing ranged from 49 to 85% for pigmented varieties and 32-55% for white/yellow. CQA levels were reduced through processing but to a greater extent in white relative to pigmented potatoes. ANCs were well retained through industrial processing of pigmented potatoes (79-129%). Levels of CQA were significantly (p<0.05) lower in some industrially versus freshly processed products but not for all products. While some differences exist, overall, industrially processed potato products compare favorably to fresh preparation in levels and recovery of phenolics.

Castor bean (Ricinus communis) is cultivated agriculturally for oil and ornamentally for its bright foliage and seed. Ornamental castor bean has naturalized in many areas of the world, including the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, where it is not planted commercially. In a survey conducted in 2019 in Sinaloa, wild castor bean was found widely affected by a foliar blight with symptoms similar to Alternaria ricini previously described in the United States (Stevenson 1945) and in the state of Chiapas, Mexico (López-Guillén et al.

This study analyzed the nutritional composition, bioactive compounds, antioxidant activities and estimated potential renal acid load (PRAL) score of orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) grown in Vietnam. In addition, important functional groups of carotenoid compounds in OFSP were identified by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR); carotenoid pigments were detected and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results showed that, OFSP had outstanding physicochemical characteristics, containing many nutrients, bioactive substances, minerals and fiber.

Colored potatoes with red and purple skin or flesh possess significant nutritional value and health benefits due to their rich anthocyanin content. To investigate the genetic mechanisms underlying color formation, the high-anthocyanin-content purple-skinned and purple-fleshed potato line 15-12-16, and the white-skinned and white-fleshed Xiazhai 65 variety were used for ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) analysis, which was conducted to identify and quantify anthocyanins. RNA sequencing was performed to analyze the transcriptome.
