Processing is an important and essential component to enhance the digestibility of essential nutrients of grains. Dietary fibres play an important role in bringing health advantages in chickpea and help in lowering plasma cholesterol. Changes during soaking and soaking followed by cooking on cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and pectin contents of four genotypes of desi type (KWR 108, JG 74, DCP 92-3 and BG 256), four genotypes of kabuli types (KAK 2, JKG 1, BG 1053, and L 550) and two genotypes of green seed type (BGD 112 and Sadabahar) of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum, L.) was studied. Cellulose, lignin and pectin increased during soaking and cooking, whereas hemicellulose increased during soaking but decreased drastically during cooking. Cellulose recorded an overall increase of 40% during cooking, followed by 15.7% and 15.2% increase in pectin and lignin, respectively during cooking of chickpea grain. Hemicellulose, on the contrary showed a decrease of 26.8% during cooking.

Owing to the long duration of cooking legumes, which limits their consumption and utilization, soaking has been used to reduce cooking time, save energy consumption, and diminish their hardness. However, limited studies have reported the influence of cooking and soaking treatment along with ultrasonication on hydration, hardness, and cooking time reduction of legumes. Therefore, this study investigated the impact of cooking and soaking treatments on Dr.

This study presents a novel gelatinization-induced whole-grain rice fortification (GIWGRF) technology using a microwave-assisted screw conveying spraying and drying setup (MASCSD). The process involves microwave-assisted soaking of pregelatinized rice in a micronutrient solution, followed by steam-assisted gelatinization and drying. Rice with an initial degree of gelatinization (DG) of 58.

Cyanogenic glycosides are plant-derived, nitrogen-containing secondary metabolites that release toxic cyanide ions upon hydrolysis by glycosidic enzymes. Therefore, consuming food items enriched with such compounds without proper remediation can cause acute cyanide intoxication. Thus, in this work, we utilize cyanide-responsive oxidized bisindole-based chromogenic probes to detect cyanogenic glycosides, such as amygdalin and linamarin (LOD: 0.
