The most commonly used method for measuring carotenoid concentration is high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Nevertheless, easier, quicker, and less costly proxy methods exist. We aimed to determine the diagnostic performance of several proxy methods: the spectrophotometer, iCheck Carot...

A comparison study of five different methods to measure carotenoids in biofortified yellow cassava (Manihot esculenta)
Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is a preventable tragedy that affects millions of people, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. A large proportion of these people rely on diets based on cassava as a source of calories. During the last two decades, significant efforts have been made to identify sources o...

Training Report: South-South collaboration for strengthening capacities in assessing the postharvest physiological deterioration (PPD) of fresh cassava roots and technologies for shelf-life extension.
Ten and thirty cassava genotypes producing wildtype and amylose‐free (waxy) starch respectively, are grown at low (LA) and intermediate (IA) altitudes (<213 and >900 m above sea level (m.a.s.l.) respectively). The functional properties of the starch from these materials are analyzed. The relative...
