ABSTRACT

 The proximate composition, functional properties and anti-nutritional content of cocoyam Xanihosoma malTa (Scoth) flour processed by different methods (boiling, blanching, roasting, microwaving) were evaluated. The result showed that there were significant differences (p (5) in the proximate composition. The moisture content ranges from 5.30% to 6.80%. 'Ihe fat content ranged from 0.75% to 1.40%. The control sample had significantly (
