Potatoes fruit liquid

It is used as organic fertilizer, as cattle feed, as substrate for fungi cultivation, or for microbial enzyme production. Further uses are proposed in lactic acid fermentation and adhesives production. The potato fruit liquid by-product is used for protein enrichment and as fertilizer [22, 23]. 

The particulate fraction, called potato pulp, besides the fruit liquid and water in intact cells, contains starch, cellulose, hemicelluloses, pectin, and proteins. On a dry matter basis, the pulp contains 74% of protein in comparison to the content in potato tuber (Kempf, 1980). Components of conventional wet potato pulp are listed in Table 16.1.

Fig. I. Single-drum dryer (atmospheric). Dryers of this type may be dip or splash fed (not shown), or, as shown, equipped with applicator rolls. The latter is particularly effective for drying high-viscosity liquids or pasty materials, such as mashed potatoes, applesauce, fruit-starch mixtures, gelatin, dextrine-type adhesives, and various star dies. The applicator rolls eliminate void areas, permit drying between successive layers of fresh material and (omi me product sheet gradually. While single applications may dry to a lacy sheet or flakes, the multiple layers generally result in a product of uniform thickness and density with minimum dusting tendencies.

Isotopic dilution techniques were used to determine residual, tritium-labeled gibberellic acid in potatoes, grapes, and various products derived from barley The seeds, the young plants, or the fruit were treated with labeled gibberellic acid and analyzed at the end of the growth period by extraction of the labeled residue in the presence of carrier gibberellic acid, isolation of a pure crystalline specimen, and subsequent assay by liquid scintillation counting ... 

Headspace analysis has been employed in the extraction of dithiocarbamate insecticide in vegetables [227]. Other techniques occasionally used are vacuum distillation followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the determination of volatile organic compounds in leaves, steam distillation in the determination of organochlorine insecticides in fruit and vegetables [229], and water distillation followed by high-performance liquid chromatography in the determination of 2-aminobutane in potatoes [102,230]. 

Plants and some algae store food in the form of starch. In plants, starch is mainly found in seeds, roots, and tubers as well as in stems, leaves, fruits, and even pollen. Grain seeds, such as corn kernels, contain up to 75% starch. Therefore, it is an important component of the carbohydrates in the diet and a very good source of energy for the body. Starch is found in foods such as cereal, pasta, and potatoes, and cornstarch is used to thicken sauces. Laundry starch is a liquid form of starch used to stiffen the collars and sleeves of shirts. An advantage of using it is that dirt and sweat will stick to the starch instead of the shirt textile fibers, with the result that collar rings are easily washed away with the starch.
