Abstract

Changes of chemical componts and populations of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria were examined during a month-long storage of sweet potatoes crushed and sealed up with polyethylene film at $7-8^{\circ}C$. 1. Changes of starch, total protein, volatile acid and ammonia-nitrogen contents were li 2. In a three days, pH down and increase of non-volatile acid content were notable, populations of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria were maximum. 3. Vitamic C and soluble sugar contents tended to be reduced during the storage and the leftover were 75-85% and 41-45% respectively. 4. ${\beta}$-Amylase activity decreased gradually and vanished 15-30days. 5. Variations of chemical compontents of the samples inoculated lactic acid bacteria were larger than non- treated to some extent. 6. As above results, mainly homo lactic acid fermentation was done in this storage condition.
