Color index and water content are important indicators for evaluating the quality of fresh-cut potato tuber slices. In this study, hyperspectral imaging combined with multivariate analysis was used to detect the color parameters (L*, a*, b*, Browning...
The quality of fresh-cut produce, particularly sweet potatoes, is crucial for their value. Licorice extract is an optional additive in fresh-cut sweet potatoes. This study examined the impact of three licorice extracts (licorice acid, LA; licorice fl...
Sodium pyrosulfite is a browning inhibitor used for the storage of fresh-cut potato slices. Excessive use of sodium pyrosulfite can lead to sulfur dioxide residue, which is harmful for the human body. The sulfur dioxide residue on the surface of fres...
Enzymatic browning poses a formidable obstacle to the commercial sustainability of fresh-cut potatoes. Although the synergistic effects of bio-inductive technologies with natural compounds in anti-browning strategies have been observed, their full po...
The effect of cutting styles (slice, pie, and shred) on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of purple and yellow flesh sweet potato cultivars during six days of storage at 4 °C was investigated. The results indicated that the sli...
Fresh-cut potato slices are prone to browning. Although freezing is an effective method of preserving food, freezing and thawing cause inevitable damage to potato tissues. This study explored the freeze-protective effects of trehalose and sorbitol un...
It is hard to control the dicing size of current fresh-cutting devices for fruits and vegetables precisely, and this can be influenced by complex working environments. This paper looks at traditional three-dimensional fresh-cutting machines and, apar...
Traditional food packaging materials maintain food quality and safety during storage, but they cause significant environmental pollution. For this reason, there has been an increased demand in designing packaging materials from biodegradable ingredie...
This work examined the influence of cultivar, anti-browning treatment, package atmosphere and storage duration on the oil uptake and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) levels in fried fresh-cut potato (FCP). Birgit and Lady Claire potato slices w...
UV-C irradiation successfully reduces the growth of microorganisms, but it can also affect the content of phenolics and sugars of fresh-cut potatoes (FCP). This could consequently alter antioxidant capacity of FCP or its potential for acrylamide form...
Native potatoes (Solanum tuberosum spp. andigena) have diverse pigments and are cultivated in Peru’s high Andean regions; they are characterized by containing bioactive compounds that prevent various degenerative diseases. The study aimed to ev...
