Notes:
Sweet potato purees were pH adjusted (some also heat treated) and stored up to 9 months in sealed containers at room temperature. Some purees were treated with amylolytic enzymes before or after storage. Rheology and carbohydrates were evaluated after 0, 3, 7, and 9 months. Nonenzyme treated purees at 4.2 pH were semi-solids after 3 months storage, but those at 1.5 and 11.5 pH had lower viscosities. Amylolytic enzyme treatments lowered molecular weights and viscosities. Pre-storage treatments were more effective than post storage in molecular weight reduction. Post storage treatments were more effective in viscosity reduction.
