Germination of potatoes will be poisoned ?

Net transfer of sprouted potatoes contain toxic alkaloids, and the toxic substances are concentrated in the potato skin, eating can cause chronic poisoning. Especially the bud and green skin color of potatoes, containing toxins is higher, should be absolutely prohibited edible. But is it really the case? Are alkaloids poisonous? Can the sprouting potatoes eat? OK, we first to bring you know the toxins in the germination of potatoes.
The germination of potatoes contain toxic alkaloids, more important is the toxin of Solanum nigrum. The toxin is mainly through inhibition of cholinesterase activity cause damage to gastrointestinal, respiratory and central motor paralysis, can cause cerebral edema and gastroenteritis.
  
Therefore, if the degree of germination is relatively light, remove germination and green parts, and soak in water for 2 hours before eating, it can remove most of the toxin. At the same time, acetic acid can neutralize the nightshade toxin, add appropriate amount of vinegar in the cooking potatoes, can reach the range of safe to eat.
So the germination of potatoes should be absolutely forbidden to eat it?
The data show that the content of toxin in the Potato Solanum nigrum is generally 30 ~ 100ng/100g, the germination of potatoes around the eye and see the light green parts, the solanine content of up to 5g/kg, Visible, the site around eye and the part turn green has the highest toxin.
It is necessary to prevent the germination of potatoes.
Put the potatoes in a sack or in a paper basket, layer of dry sand on potatoes, store in a cool dry place.
Put the potatoes in the box, and put a few immature apples in the box, the gas in the process of apple ripening, can interfere with the development of potato. The potatoes are stored with apples stored for 8 weeks, the potato still not weak, not germination.
