The Effect Of Different Processing Treatments On The Nutrients And Anti-Nutrients Of Pigeon Pea (Cajanus Cajan), S Soybean (Glycine Max.) And Cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata).
ABSTRACT
The effect of three different processing treatments;
Boiling, soaking and toasting on the nutrient and anti-nutrients of three
legumes seed (Soybean, Cowpea and Pigeon pea) was studied. Results of the
proximate analysis showed that the protein content, ash content, fat content
were significantly reduced by the treatments, while the fiber content and
moisture content were less affected. The protein contents ranging from 23.70% ±
to 0.14% in boiled pigeon pea while in toasted samples, it ranged from 21.17% ±
0.02% and soaked pigeon pea ranged from 19.86% ± .0.03%. Ash contents also
ranged from 5.2% ± 0.04% in raw pigeon pea to 3.8 1% ± 0.01% in boiled, 4.53%±
0.02% in soaked and 5.24% ± 0.02% in toasted pigeon pea. The trend was the same
in both soybean and. cowpca. Similarly all the test anti-nutrients saponin,
alkaloid, flavonoid and phenols were all reduced by the treatments to levels
that were significantly different
