The carotenoid retention in biofortified cassava when processed as boiled, <jats:italic>fufu<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>chikwangue<\/jats:italic> was evaluated in this study. Commercial biofortified varieties Kindisa and Vuvu and the experimental genotypes MVZ2011B\/360 and MVZ2012\/044 were used. Fresh cassava roots were processed as boiled, <jats:italic>fufu<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>chikwangue<\/jats:italic>. Provitamin A carotenoids (pVACs) content of fresh and processed cassava was measured by high\u2010performance liquid chromatography, and total carotenoids was measured by spectrophotometer.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>pVACs content of fresh peeled cassava was 1.79\u20136.65 \u00b5g g<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup> on a fresh weight basis, whereas in boiled cassava, <jats:italic>fufu<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>chikwangue<\/jats:italic> the pVACs content was 1.71\u20136.91 \u00b5g g<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>, 0.04\u20130.37 \u00b5g g<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>, and 0.52\u20131.75 \u00b5g g<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup> respectively. True retention of carotenoids after cooking was 93.2\u201396.8%, 0.8\u20133.1%, and 4.0\u201318.1% for boiled cassava, <jats:italic>fufu<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>chikwangue<\/jats:italic> respectively.
