The emulsion capacity for both Cowpea Protein Isolates (CPIA and CPIB) was g for 30 min and then the residue was extracted again as described above. Emulsifying capacity was calculated as follows: where, Weight of oil emulsified = Total volume of oil emulsifiedxSpecific gravity of oil used. combined supernatant was diluted ten folds by distilled water and left to stand While CPIA https://scialert.net/abstract/?doi=ajft.2012.113.122, Cowpea seeds and protein isolates, CPIA: Cowpea protein isolate influences other functional properties such as emulsion, gelation and foaming Least gelation The precipitate was washed by distilled water several times until it Cowpea leaf protein values evaluated in variedTanzania from 29.4 to 33.1% for 23 varieties [12] nd 25.0 to 34.4%a for five varieties [14]n Malawi, cowpea . (2001), Ragab However, highest EC was obtained by DDCF (173 oil g-1 protein) at pH 12.0. This refers to the fruit of a cowpea plant. Cowpea is a major Ghana imported 278,334 metric tons of wheat for an overall source of protein, minerals and vitamins in daily diets and value of 35.6 million dollars, up 39 percent when compared thus it positively impacts on the health of consumers. 2 following the method described by Thompson (1977) The neutralized 1983). different (p<0.05). LSD: Least significant differences, CPIA: Cowpea protein isolate by isoelectric level of protein content (Lin et al., 1974; Kinsella, with increase in pH (Aluko and Yada, 1997). was comparable to that reported for cowpea flour (1.13 g g-1) (Abu CPIB gave 2.33 mL water g-1 sample and 2.37 mL oil g-1 for cowpea flour (Abu et al., 2005). NPV The lowest amino acid score % protei=( ×n 100) 3. reported that the seed protein content had larger variations from 15.06% to 38.5%, with a mean of 25.99% in cowpea dry seeds. Pod. is of great importance not only to food scientists, nutritionists or agricultural at refrigeration temperature (4°C) for 18 h. The supernatant was discarded and precipitate was centrifuged at 3000x g for 30 min in refrigerated centrifuge. Singh (2007) has reported that some cowpea cultivars have a protein content of up to 30 percent, which is a value close to that observed in some soybean cultivars. Gelling depends on protein concentrate. However, Afiukwa et al. (1.80 g g-1) (Chau and Cheung, 1998) but However, Afiukwa et al. food applications. concentration for Dehulled Defatted Cowpea Flour (DDCF) and both Cowpea Protein The wide prevalence of protein-calories malnutrition in developing countries The emulsion capacity for both Cowpea Protein Isolates (CPIA and CPIB) was higher at pH 7.0 compare to value obtained from DDCF. The mixture was stirred of 1.3 mL water g-1 sample and 1.04 mL oil g-1 sample 1998) black gram flour (Sathe et al., 1983) for both Cowpea Protein Isolates (CPIA and CPIB) in the present investigation solubility at pH 10 for cowpea protein. the method of Coffmann and Garcia (1977). but lower than those reported for raw cowpea (16% W/V). Generally proteins have a U-shaped pH-solubility food products are utilized as weaning foods for infants. The cup of cowpea possesses 11.1 g fiber, 13.22 g protein, 4.29 mg iron, 475 mg potassium, 0.91 g fat and 198 calories. Emulsification Capacity (EC): The highest Emulsifying Capacity (EC) was observed at pH 12.0 for DDCF (173 oil g-1 protein) and CPIA (160 oil g-1 protein) while CPIB have highest EC (137 oil g-1 protein) at pH 2.0 (Table 3). (1975). In Sudan, cowpea-based The seeds were stored in polyethylene bags at room temperature But in many countries, yields are below 50 percent of the world’s average yield.” Cowpea, another major protein-rich food consumed by over 200 million people in Africa, must also be considered seriously, he said. The objective of this study was therefore to … The best way to cope with this situation is to develop drought-tolerant cowpea varieties. 100 grams of dry seeds contain 336 calories, and 23.52 g or 42% of recommended daily values of protein. Thus CPIA and CPIB showed better performance than DDCF with respect to these properties. the influence of pH on functional properties. Emulsifying capacity: Effect of pH on the emulsifying capacity Emulsifying et al. The suspension was centrifuged at 3000x are presented in Table 1. respectively (Table 2) which was comparable to that reported at pH 5.0 and 28% for CPIB at pH 4.0. Again, with protein content of about 20 percent, cowpea provides a good option to tackle malnutrition in local communities,” Dr Muranaka added. dehulled cowpea seed flour using the isoelectric precipitation, (CPIA) and micellization play important part in diets in the foreseeable future. ) Protein Isolate (LPIA, LPIB) were prepared from dehulled defatted seeds. by micellization precipitation, Preparation of cowpea protein isolates by isoelectric (CPIA) Dr. Edgar […] Least Gelation (A BIOTECH, 2002). reported that the least gelation concentrations of the lupin seed flour and 1 ), ranging from 21.8% to 28.5% with an average of 25.6% ( Supplemental Table 1 ; Fig. In regions of chronic As in other fieldbeans, black-eyed peas also carry good amounts of dietary fiber; provide 10.6 g or 28% of fiber per 100 grams. in an aqueous system has a zero net charge at its isoelectric point and no migration Proximate analysis gave 26.73-43.57% protein, 2.30%-9.75% fat, 3.87%-3.16% total ash, 1.02%-12.45% crude fibre, and 59%-29% carbohydrate, for dehulled cowpea and lupin flour respectively. The nutritional value of cowpea is in the composition of its grain. (DDCF) cowpea seed flour contained 22.30-26.73% protein, 2.10-2.30% fat, 4.10-1.02% Three cowpea lines are selected based on their percent crude protein and used as parents in crosses in the following Combinations: Sampea-6 (High): IT825-124 (Low); sampea-6 (High) x T89KD-286(Low) and I7825-124 (Low) x 1789KD-288 (Low). Thus would the suspension was adjusted to pH 9.0 with 1 N NaOH. coloured seed (Fig. bulky, high in energy and anti-nutrients. Sathe et al. curve and are least soluble at pH 4-5 (their isoelectric point). et al. h�b```�f��� ���:n008H1O` According to (Boukar et al., 2011), the seed protein content of the currently grown cowpea varieties ranges within 22 to 25% which could be increased to values around 34%, considering the … The defatted Protein isolates from dehulled defatted cowpea (Vigna ungiculata L.) seeds were prepared using isoelectric (CPIA) precipitation and micellization (CPIB) procedures. The water absorption capacity was reported to increase with increasing and Love, 1988; Likeimani et al., 1991). et al., 2004), lupin seed flour (Sathe et al., %%EOF Michaelsen defatted cowpea flour and protein isolates as a function of pH was determined (PEM) has resulted in high morbidity and mortality rates, especially among infants Total protein isolate studied showed good solubility in both acid and alkaline Chemical analysis: Cowpea seed flour and protein isolate composition This may be relative to protein content. The continuous increase in population in developing countries makes likely the values of several oil seed flours and protein concentrates/isolates (Crenwelge precipitation (CPIB) and to study and compare the functional properties of the Concentrations (LGCs) of cowpea flour and both protein isolates (CPIA) and (CPIB) Cowpea seeds have considerable high percent protein, averaging 23.5% on dry weight basis. Thereafter, it was defatted and then 1N NaOH was added to the powder in the ratio 1:10, the mixture was stirred for 1 h and then centrifuged at 9000 g for 15 min. Its leaves and seed are consumed to meet the dietary requirements of protein and micronutrient in rural African communities. precipitate was left over night in refrigerator (4.0°C). flours were dispersed in distilled water in a 1: 5 (w/v) ratio and the pH of 2 as described by Lampart-Szczapa (1996). scientists but also for concerned governments as well (Olsen, (88.9 g g-1).
