MODI, J . D . , and P.R. KULKARNI. 1976.<br />

Studies on the starches of ragi and red<br />

gram. J. Fd S c l . Technol. 13(1):<br />

9-10. 308<br />

Starches Isolated from r a g l and red gram<br />

had Iodine a f f i n i t y of 3.08 and 3.13%<br />

respectively. The g e l a t i n i z a t i o n temperatures<br />

ranged from 56 to 72°C; when tested<br />

in an amylograph, both these starches were<br />

found to be stable to heat up to 90°C.<br />

MTENGA, L.A., and T. SUGIYAMA. 1974.<br />

A note on the amino acid composition of<br />

some legume seeds grown in Tanzania.<br />

E. A f r . Agric. For. J. 39(3):307-310. 309<br />

Amino acid contents of cowpea, groundnut,<br />

Ph. vulgaris, Cajanus oajan, and soybean<br />

seeds grown in Tanzania are presented.<br />

MUNSELL, HAZEL E. 1949-50.<br />

Composition of food plants of central<br />

America. I and V I I . Honduras. I I , I I I , and<br />

V I I I . Guatemala. IV. El Salvador. V.<br />

The composition of various food plants from<br />

Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua,<br />

and Costa Rica set out in tabular form w i t h<br />

b r i e f notes on each p l a n t . Analyses are<br />

given for the f o l l o w i n g , among others:<br />

Vigna unguiaulata, Cajanus oajan, Ph.<br />

limensis, Ph. vulgaris, Pieum sativum,<br />

Cioer arietinum, Lene aulinaris, and<br />

Doliohos lablab.<br />

Improvement in the t e x t u r a l q u a l i t i e s of<br />

i r r a d i a t e d legumes. Acta Alimen. Hung.<br />

4(2):199-209. 311<br />

Gamma-irradiation of pulses reduced t h e i r<br />

cooking time by varying degrees (8.39%<br />

reduction w i t h 1 Mrad), as measured by a<br />

texture-meter. I n i t i a l l y high hydration<br />

rate on soaking and cooking s t a b i l i z e d<br />

during prolonged cooking and resulted in<br />

better and more uniform texture in i r r a ­<br />

diated red gram. Better vitamin B retent<br />

i o n observed in i r r a d i a t e d cooked red<br />

gram, is a t t r i b u t e d to the reduced cooking<br />

time.<br />

Effect of gamma i r r a d i a t i o n on red gram<br />

I r r a d i a t i o n of pigeonpea seed w i t h 1 to 3<br />

Mrad doses at a Y - i r r a d i a t i o n f l u x of 15<br />

Krad/min increased the l e v e l of tyrosine in<br />

t o t a l amino acids, increased free amino<br />

acid content, increased d i g e s t i b i l i t y of<br />

protein in vitro by pepsin and t r y p s i n ,<br />

changed the d i s t r i b u t i o n of protein among<br />

peaks obtained on e l u t i o n from a Sephadex<br />

G-200 column, and did not affect the<br />

trypsin i n h i b i t o r a c t i v i t y .<br />

Effect of gamma radiation on physicochemical<br />

characteristics of red gram<br />

(.Cajanus oajan) starch. J. Fd Sci.<br />

40(5):943-947. 313<br />

The t o t a l reducing sugars of i r r a d i a t e d<br />

pulse showed no s i g n i f i c a n t increase over<br />

the c o n t r o l . This suggests that the<br />

breakdown of starch in red gram was probably<br />

l i m i t e d to higher maltodextrins.<br />

Though the quantity of t o t a l nonreducing<br />

sugars was not affected by i r r a d i a t i o n ,<br />

cooking s i g n i f i c a n t l y decreased raffinose<br />

and stachyose contents. Degradation of<br />

red gram starch has also been observed in<br />

terms of a decrease in g e l a t i n i z a t i o n<br />

v i s c o s i t y and an increase in s o l u b i l i t y<br />

on heating.<br />

Effect of gamma-irradiation of redgram<br />

(Cajanus oajan) l i p i d s . Acta Alimen. Hung.<br />

4(4):373-380. 314<br />

No changes in the t o t a l or neutral l i p i d<br />

composition were observed in red gram<br />

i r r a d i a t e d at 1 Mrad dose l e v e l s . Similarl<br />

y , saturated and unsaturated f a t t y acids<br />

were not affected by radiation treatment.<br />

Radiation prevented development of r a n c i ­<br />

d i t y and o f f - f l a v o r s during storage for<br />

8 months. Prevention of oxidation under<br />

such conditions can be a t t r i b u t e d to the<br />

synergistic e f f e c t of phospholipids in the<br />

presence of tocopherols as w e l l as to low<br />

moisture content. However, polar l i p i d s<br />

seemed to undergo decomposition on<br />
