متن کاملEffect of temperature on aflatoxin production in Mucuna pruriens seeds.
This paper describes the effect of temperature on the level of aflatoxin production in Mucuna pruriens seeds. The highest level of aflatoxin B1 (1.75 micrograms/g) was detected in the samples incubated at 25 degrees C for three weeks. At 20, 30, and 35 degrees C, aflatoxin levels were 0.30 to 0.56, 0.37 to 1.20, and 0.26 to 0.65 micrograms/g, respectively. The lowest concentration of aflatoxin ...
متن کاملNutritional quality and physicochemical properties of Mucuna bean (Mucuna pruriens L.) protein isolates
The potential for mucuna bean protein isolate (MBPI) application as functional ingredient in foods is unknown. In this study nutritional quality and physicochemical properties of MBPI were investigated. Bean samples were processed for L-dopa extraction in distilled water adjusted to pH 3.2 at 60°C for 48hr. MBPI was extracted at pH 9.0 and isoelectrically precipitated at pH 4.5. MBPI from raw a...
