1. A procedure is given for the preparation of purified soybean hemagglutinin from untoasted soybean flour. The final purification step involves column chromatography on calcium phosphate. The homogeneity of the purified protein was ascertained chromatographically and electrophoretically. 2. The purified soybean hemagglutinin was found to contain mannose (4.5 %) and glucosamine (1%). 3. The car...

This study was designed to evaluate the nutrient composition and sensory properties of breakfast cereals produced from blends millet, soybean date fruit flour. Soybean flours were used at varying replacement levels (5-30% 5-20% fruit) for malted millet flour in production with cereal 100% as control. The evaluated using standard methods. moisture, crude protein, fat, fibre ash contents increase...

Milling is a critical step to prepare plant-based food ingredients by dry fractionation. It should provide dispersible flour of finely milled particles composed different cellular substructures. Especially, for raw materials with higher oil content such as soybean, this challenging. We present an investigation on the effect milling yield, particle size, energy use and dispersibility upon pin-mi...

High-performance liquid chromatographic methods were developed for the isolation and quantitative determination of the group B soyasaponins, including 2,3-dihydro-2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one (DDMP)-conjugated soyasaponins alphag, betag, and betaa, and their non-DDMP counterparts, soyasaponins V, I, and II, respectively, with formononetin used as the internal standard. The limits of qu...

Ien resins, each with two replicates, were formulated from soy flour hydrolyzates and prepared with two hydrolyzation variables: phenol-to-soy flour ratios (w/w) of 4/4,3/4,2/4, l/4, and O/4 and sodium hydroxide-to-soy flour ratios (w/w) of 0.39 and 0.78. In addition, two commercially available phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins were used in the study as controls. The most ‘interesting result in t...

This study presents the availability of fish feed ingredients and their nutritive value in Lakshmipur region, southern Bangladesh considering the presence of large number of fish farms in those areas. A survey was conducted to collect the ingredients from the local markets and fish farms of the area. A range of commonly used feed ingredients for fish farming was available in the markets that in...
