Enhancement of Tomato Fruit Lycopene by Potassium Is Cultivar Dependent (2008, methodology): “Three commercial determinate tomato cultivars, ‘Mountain Spring’, ‘Florida 91’, and ‘Fla. 8153’, were grown from seed in soilless media (peat:perlite) to the third leaf stage of growth and were then transferred to 20-cm-diameter plastic pots containing silica sand.”
Effect of domestic processing on bioactive compounds (2008, background): “neither affected by cooking treatment for 4, 8 and 16 min at 100 C (Thompson et al. 2000).”
