Effect of irradiation on total glycoalkaloids in Kennebec and Russet Burbank potatoes

Effect of irradiation and storage conditions following irradiation on total glycoalkaloids (TGA) of Russet Burbank and Kennebec potatoes stored 4 and 12 wk was investigated. TGA increased significantly (p less than 0.005) immediately following irradiaton in both cultivars, but decreased upon storage...

Zusammenfassung:Effect of irradiation and storage conditions following irradiation on total glycoalkaloids (TGA) of Russet Burbank and Kennebec potatoes stored 4 and 12 wk was investigated. TGA increased significantly (p less than 0.005) immediately following irradiaton in both cultivars, but decreased upon storage. TGA was higher in Kennebec than Russet Burbank often exceeding levels considered safe for human consumption. At 5 degrees C TGA was higher in tubers stored in paper as compared to polyethylene, while at 20 degrees C this was reversed
