Abstract:
Potatoes and sweet potatoes are two widely consumed and versatile tubers with distinct physiochemical properties. This study aims to provide a comparative analysis of these two tubers based on their physiochemical characteristics. Various parameters such as moisture content, pH, swelling power, gelatinization capacity, starch content, and sugar content and fat content, were investigated to evaluate the nutritional value and potential health benefits of potatoes and sweet potatoes. The results revealed that both potatoes and sweet potatoes have high moisture content, with potatoes containing slightly higher levels that is 8.2% for potato and 6.5% for sweet potato. Swelling power(g/g) and gelatinization (%) capacity also differed with potato (28.6 g/g) (38.6%) and sweet potato (8.6g/g) (87.03%) respectively, understanding such properties help in their industrial use. sweet potatoes (4.3%) contain a higher proportion of sugars, especially sucrose than potato (1.16%). This difference in starch composition contributes to differences in taste, texture, and cooking properties between the two tubers.
