The purpose of the present work was to develop an innovative food product with nutritional properties as well as appealing organoleptic qualities. The product, a jam, was prepared with the beans’ cooking water combined with fresh apple or carrot, without the addition of any conservatives. Three different jams were produced: bean and carrot, bean and apple and bean, apple and cinnamon. The devel...

Faba bean is a legume used as a food source by humans and animals. However, it presents antinutritional factors such as tannins and phytic acid, compounds that form complexes with proteins and minerals, respectively, decreasing faba bean’s digestive value. Faba bean was treated with tannase and phytase, the effect of this treatment was measured in a study with rats, a group received a diet with...

Background: Effectiveness of Rhizobium inoculation is determined by common bean genotypes. Environmental factors also affect common bean genotypes-Rhizobium-symbiosis. The effect of common bean genotypes-Rhizobium strains-environment interaction on nodulation and common bean production is not well studied. Three genotypes (Dursitu, Gofta, and Kufanzik) and eight selected isolates of common bean...

1. The effect of partial replacement of meat protein with three different soya-bean-protein products on bile acid and cholesterol excretion was studied in seven ileostomy subjects. Four different tests diets containing 60 g meat, rice and bread protein, or a replacement of 250 g protein/kg total dietary protein by soya-bean protein from soya-bean flour, soya-bean concentrate or soya-bean isolat...

The research was focused on quantitative analysis of L-Dopa content in extracts of various products from velvet bean tempe processing. The procedures of velvet bean tempe processing were dehulling, soaking, steaming, inoculating with Raprima tempe inoculum that contain Rhizopus oligosporus NRRL 2771, packaging and fermenting at room temperature for 24, 48, 72 and 96 h, respectively. The product...

jimsonweed (datura stramonium l.) is an important weed in bean fields in iran. in order to investigate the effect of density and relative time of emergence of jimsonweed on yield and yield components of chitti bean, a field study based on factorial experiment was conducted at farm bean research national station in khomein in 2006. treatments were chosen to provide four different weed densities ...

To date, no extensive literature review exists regarding potential uses of mung bean proteins and peptides. As mung bean has long been widely used as a food source, early studies evaluated mung bean nutritional value against the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)/the World Health Organization (WHO) amino acids dietary recommendations. The comparison demonstrated mung ...

Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis), an important legume crop, is grown in more than 30 countries of the world. The seed of adzuki bean, as an important source of starch, digestible protein, mineral elements, and vitamins, is widely used foods for at least a billion people. Here, we generated a high-quality draft genome sequence of adzuki bean by whole-genome shotgun sequencing. The assembled contig ...

Bean/Cowpea Collaborative Research Support Program (B/C CRSP) scientists have successfully developed integrated consensus maps of the 11 linkage groups (LGs) in both bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp). The bean map is approximately 1200 cM with some 500 markers and an additional 500 markers shared with other bean maps. The cowpea map spans 2670 cM with over 400 ...
