ABSTRACT
This study was
conducted to evaluate the effect of soaking of Mucuna cochinchinensis in
different alkaline solutions on the proximate composition, mineral profile and
level of anti-nutritional factors. The treatments included potash (Ti), palm
bunch ash (T2), maize cob ash (T3) and yam bean ash (T4) solutions, while the
raw seeds was the control. The results indicated that yam bean ash solution
improved crude protein content better than the other treatments. The mineral
profiles were generally improved by the soaking in alkaline solutions. Soaking
in potash solution best reduced the anti-nutritional factors.
