- Title
Isopropyl N-(3-chlorophenyl) Carbarmate (CIPC) Effect on Nitrogenous Constituents of Potatoes.
- Authors
SEETHARAMAN, K.; MONDY, N.I.
- Abstract
Potatoes treated with 1% or 3% CIPC and stored 16 weeks at 5°C and 20°C were analyzed for nitrogenous constituents. Treatment with 1% CIPC significantly (p < 0.025) increased total nitrogen and protein content in tubers of two cultivars compared to untreated control tubers following storage at 5°C and 20°C. Treatment with 3% CIPC increased total nitrogen and decreased protein in tubers stored at 20°C (p < 0.025), but decreased total nitrogen and protein in tubers stored at 5°C. Treating potatoes with CIPC prevented sprouting in both varieties and apparently caused the tuber to retain nitrogen.
