Abstract
Legumes are low-cost sources of plant-based proteins with various biological and nutritional attributes, making them potent to be the main functional food ingredients. Consumption of legumes and their sprouts has become popular among people who are interested in improving and maintaining their health status by changing dietary habits. The sprouting of legumes improves the nutritional, functional, and biological properties of legumes by altering the content and composition of nutrients and bioactive compounds. Aim of the study is to prepare raw and sprouted beans flour (black grams, mung beans, red kidney beans and white kidney beans) and analyzed the nutritional comparison between raw and sprouted legume beans flour. The raw and sprouted flours was analyzed for physiochemical, antioxidants, compositional and minerals contents. Results were subjected to appropriate statistical analysis to determine level of significance. The results for antioxidants, minerals and physiochemical properties was highly significant. The calcium content of raw legumes beans ranged from 0.26 to 0.59mg/100g and increased during sprouting of legumes because sprouting reduced the phytic acid which binds the minerals, calcium content of sprouted legumes beans ranged from 0.61 to 1.29mg/100g. Similarly the results regarding TPC and TFC of raw kidney beans ranged from 0.32±0.03 to 0.58±0.03 mgGAE/g and 0.34±0.02 to 0.55±0.03mgRE/g respectively and increased during sprouting of legumes ranged from 0.44±0.03 to 1.92±0.02mgRE/g and 0.40±0.02 to 0.57±0.02mgRE/g respectively.
