| Abstract: | The levels of sugars in three samples of ripening plantain were determined daily for a period of four days. It was found that on dry weight basis, the amount of reducing sugars (as invert sugar) and total sugars (as invert sugar) increased by 15.0% and 18.2% respectively over the four days period. On the wet weight basis the reducing sugars (as invert sugar) increased by 5.9% whilst that of total sugars (as invert sugar) increased by 5.0% |
