Yam Bean (AYB) and Lima bean flours under different processing methods were
determined. Nutritional and anti-nutritional properties studied include moisture
content, crude protein, crude fibre, ash content, ether extract, carbohydrate,
tannin, protease inhibitor and phytate. The moisture content of AYB flours ranged
from 9.31 to 9.61% while that of lima beans ranged from 9.32 to 9.56%. There
is a significant different among the samples when the unprocessed AYB (control)
and the processed AYB were compared. The same trend was also observed with lima
bean flours. However, some nutrient did not show significant variations with
processing. It was observed that samples of soaked/de-hulled AYB have the least
protease inhibitor of 0.73 mg/100 g and it is significantly different from the
unprocessed samples. Soaked/de-hulled flours of both AYB and lima beans have
the most percentage decrease in anti-nutritional content. Lima bean flours were
observed to have higher anti-nutritional content than AYB. The percentage decrease
of anti-nutritional factors in the samples is proportionally higher than that
of the nutrients. The nutritional and anti-nutritional compositions of the samples
suggest that processed African Yam Bean (AYB) and Lima bean flours would have
useful application in fabricated foods.]]>Adeyeye, E.I.,1997in vitro multienzyme digestibility of protein of six varieties of African Yam Bean (Sphenostylis stenocapa) flour.]]>60509512Adeyeye, E.I., A.A.
