"Effect of storage and processing on\r\nphytic acid levels in legumes and its\r\ninterference with the utilisation\r\nof protein and iron\r\n\r\n"^^ . "xv\r\nDuring prolonged storage of the legumes studied, the most notable change\r\nobserved was the loss of phytic acid. Chickpea, green gram, and soybean stored\r\nat 25 and 37°C showed marked decreases in protein digestibility (in vitro). The\r\nlegumes stored at 25 and 37°C required prolonged cooking times; however,\r\nlegumes stored at 5'C showed only a slight increase in cooking time. PCMP\r\nnumber relating the contents of pectin, calcium, magnesium and phytin increased\r\nduring storage. When phytic acid disappears during prolonged storage, chelation\r\ndiminishes and Ca and Mg are freed as cations. Probably free Ca and Mg\r\nassociated with pectic substances causing the hard-to-cook phenomena. However,\r\nunder storage conditions of low temperature (5\"C), these changes were\r\nrninimised. The phytic acid level can thus be indicative of the cookability of\r\nlegumes.\r\nResults indicate that the genotypes of pulses with low phytic acid content\r\ncould be identified and used in breeding programs to improve their nutritive\r\nvalue and utilisation."^^ .
