Identification of total carotenoids and β-carotene content in different flesh tuber colours of local wweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) for pharmaceutical industry
Five varieties of sweet potato tuber in Malaysia, have been studied for their total carotenoid contents and βeta- carotene content through spectrophotometry and high performance liquid chromatography HPLC analysis. This study was conducted to compare carotenoids content in local orange, yellow, purp...
