Summary
This study demonstrates that potato tubers can be safely stored for 12 weeks at either 8 or 18 deg C without sprouting, if dipped in a 57.5 deg C hot water bath for 20-30 min. Neither electron microscopy of starch granules, puncture tests nor chromacity analysis provided evidence of damage due to thermal treatment.
