Abstract In this study, volatile compounds of various beans (black bean, mung and soybean) were analyzed on the basis particle sizes extraction temperatures by two methods, namely, distillation under reduced pressure–continuous liquid–liquid (DRP–LLE) hot water (HWE). The experimental results confirmed presence 10 components. five major hexanal, 2-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-octen-3-ol benza...

A nutrition study was conducted to evaluate the growth response of weaned piglets fed diets containing soya beans that had been processed into protein supplements at two different levels of dry matter (DM) and temperature. Four diets contained protein supplements prepared from whole full-fat soya beans equilibrated at 800 or 900 g kgÿ1 DM prior to being heated to 110 or 1258C. An additional die...

BACKGROUND Our objective was to compare the capacities of biofortified and standard colored beans to deliver iron (Fe) for hemoglobin synthesis. Two isolines of large-seeded, red mottled Andean beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), one standard ("Low Fe") and the other biofortified ("High Fe") in Fe (49 and 71 μg Fe/g, respectively) were used. This commercial class of red mottled beans is the preferre...
