Abstract:
... In vitro experiments showed that i) phytates, tannins and saponins from pulses can alter vitamin D and K bioavailability and ii) meat decreased vitamin D bioaccessibility by impairing its stability during digestion. We aimed to confirm these results in vivo by force-feeding mice with emulsions containing either potatoes or semolina or chickpeas or meat. Vitamin D and K plasma responses decreased a ...

Abstract:
... Asparagine and sugars are direct precursors of acrylamide; however, proteins and fibres can also influence it. In this study, biscuits prepared replacing wheat flour with increasing concentrations (20, 40, 60%) of lupin or chickpea flour were investigated. Asparagine concentration was equalized in all formulas to isolate the effect of other flour characteristics on the acrylamide formation during ...
... The suitability of chickpea, red lentil and green pea for the production of extruded products (i.e., snacks and pasta) was studied. Besides starch and technological properties, the impact of processing on some bioactive compounds was evaluated. The best results were obtained for lentil: the snacks showed the lowest porosity (21 %), the highest average pore radius (18.8 µm), and high expansion (sec ...

Abstract:
... Evaluating the protein content of a single chickpea seed in a rapid, non-destructive, and precise manner is crucial for facilitating the breeding of high-protein chickpeas. This study explored the potential of near-infrared (NIR) hyperspectral imaging (HSI) to predict the protein content in a single chickpea seed. Eight varieties of chickpeas with different protein contents were subjected to NIR r ...
... Recently, an interactive association between molecular structures and nutrition of protein could be used for evaluation of truly absorbable nutrient supply, nutrient utilization and availability. However, there was no study found in cool-season adapted chickpeas. The objectives of this study were to: (1) reveal an interactive association between macro-molecular structures and nutrition of protein ...

Abstract:
... The existence of dockage, unripe kernels, and foreign materials in chickpea mixtures is one of the main concerns during chickpea storage and marketing. Novel algorithms based on image processing were developed to detect undesirable, foreign materials, and matured chickpea kernels in the chickpea mixture. Images of 270 objects including 54 sound samples and 36 samples of each undesired object were ...

Abstract:
... Determining energy productivity change during a time interval is an important issue in many production lines. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach is a well-known technique utilized to measure productivity change and widely used by researchers to analyze the performance of decision making units. In this regard, the modified Enhanced Russell Measure (ERM), a non-radial DEA-based efficiency mode ...
chickpeas, etc ; Ascochyta; agronomy; blight; grain yield; winter; Spain; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Multi-environment field testing of chickpea accessions winter sown in Southern Spain showed that environmental effects on yield were more important than genotypic effects and GEI. The most detrimental factor on grain yield was ascochyta blight infection. We did not find a significant effect of low temperatures on yield in the environments studied, probably due to the mild winters in the area. On t ...

Abstract:
... A field experiment was conducted to determine optimum inter-row and intrarow spacing for a higher and economic yield of different chickpea varieties during 2016–2017 cropping season at Debre Zeit and Minjar. The experiment was carried out in a split-plot design replicated three times. The two varieties (Habru and Arerti) were assigned as a main plot and factorial of three inter-row spacing (20 cm, ...
chickpeas, etc ; computer vision; physicochemical properties; plant proteins; stakeholders; supply chain; Show all 6 Subjects
Abstract:
... The non‐availability of assessment tools among stakeholders often results in mixing of different chickpea varieties during its movement in the supply chain. Since each chickpea variety has unique physico‐chemical properties, it is important to prevent mixing with other varieties for maintaining the purity to obtain the intended quality for specific formulation. In this study, seven pre‐trained dee ...

Abstract:
... The legume consumption is increasing because this food represents a rich and sustainable source of plant proteins and biological activities considered effective in the prevention of some chronic diseases, including those age-related. With the aim to characterize functional properties of some legume foodstuffs, the total polyphenolic content and the antioxidant, metal chelation and ACE-inhibitory a ...

Abstract:
... Dry chemo-mechanical (DCM) pretreatment is an interesting eco-friendly approach for bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass into sugars and other valuable molecules. In this study, different dry DCM pretreatments were developed using a combination of alkaline and vibro-milling “VBM”. High-resolution fractional factorial 2ᵏ⁻¹ design (FFD) was applied to evaluate statistically the effects of NaOH c ...

Abstract:
... Seventy‐three isolates of Rhizoctonia were obtained from chickpea‐growing areas of Uşak, Kütahya, Isparta and Denizli provinces in Turkey. All the isolates were multinucleate (MN) and 50 of them showed hyphal fusion with the reference isolate of Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 5 (AG‐5). To confirm the identification, ITS gene regions of the isolates were sequenced with the ITS1 and ITS4 prime ...

Abstract:
... Alimentary pasta made of chickpeas has been recently introduced in the market. The novelty and presentation of this food can have a confounding effect on chickpea allergic patients and can pose a risk to them. The allergenic content of novel alimentary chickpea pasta in comparison with regular chickpea seeds has not been analyzed so far. Protein extracts were obtained, and the allergenic content w ...

Abstract:
... The pervasive soil-borne pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii (Sacc.) is responsible for collar rot (CR) of chickpea identified as one of the major production constraints for its cultivation worldwide. Presence of wider host range and absence of stable resistance sources against the pathogen makes it more difficult to manage, and seeks urgency towards identification of new sources of resistance. Environmen ...
