Studies on the Deterioration of Konjac (Amorphophallus Konjac) Powder

NIPPON SHOKUHIN KOGYO GAKKAISHI, 1969
The effect of factors as temperature, moisture of powder and atomospheric oxygen on the deterioration of konjac powder during storage was studied. The degree of the deterioration of powder was determined by estimation of reduced viscosity of aqueous solution.Under the condition that surrounding oxygen is replaced by nitrogen, the reduction velocity of ...

Functional dynamics analysis of endophytic microbial communities during Amorphophallus muelleri seed maturation

Scientific Reports
Konjac seeds of Amorphophallus muelleri are produced through a unique form of apomixis in triploid parthenogenesis, and typically require a longer maturation period (approximately 8 months).
