dc.descriptionTo make the food more palatable through germination is an ancient process. It is generally preceded by soaking the seeds in water. It improves the nutritive value of cereals and legumes and has been found to decreases the level of anti-nutrients present in cereal and maximizes the level of utilizable nutrients. Metabolic enzymes are activated and utilization or synthesis of wide range of chemical compounds occurs in seeds and results in the enhancement of nutritional quality during germination. The germinated seeds are rich in vitamins, minerals and are reported to contain important phytochemicals for disease prevention (Fernandez-Orozeo et al., 2006). It is a simple biochemical enrichment tool to enhance the palatability result in increasing the digestibility and nutritive value. In cereal grains, germination increase oligosaccharides and amino acids concentration as observed in barley (Rimsten ef a/., 2003), wheat (Yang et al., 2001), oat (Mikola et al., 2001) and rice (Manna et al., 1995).en_US
dc.description.abstractThe study was conducted with a view to determine the effect of germination on the changes of protein content, mineral content and enzymatic activity (a-amylase, protease) of rice, barley, chickpea and jackfruit seed as well as to determine the physico-chemical agents on the stability of the enzymes of chickpea. Protein content of rice and chickpea were increased 16.21% and 17.68% respectively at 24 hours then decreased drastically from 48-72 hours of germination. The protein content of barley and jackfruit seed were also increased 31.25% and 23.00% respectively at 48 hours of germination. Mineral content of rice and chickpea were increased at 24 hours of germination and then decreased gradually from 48-72 hours of germination. The mineral content of barley and jackfruit seed were increased at 48 hours of germination and then decreased gradually from 72 hours of germination. The a-amylase and protease activity of rice were increased significantly 51.27% and 155.55% respectively at 24 hours of germination and decreased gradually from 48-72 hours of germination. The oa-amylase and protease activity of chickpea were increased tremendously 162.06% and 136.20% respectively at 24 hours of germination and decreased gradually from 48-72 hours of germination. The a-amylase and protease activity of barley were tremendously increased 72.93% and 57.14% respectively at 48 hours of germination and decreased gradually from 72 hours of germination. In jackfruit seed the o-amylase and protease activity remarkably increased 106.10% and 36.61% respectively at 48 hours of germination and decreased gradually from 72 hours of germination. The enzymatic activities of a-amylase and protease from chickpea were investigated after physical and chemical treatments. The enzymes aamylase and protease have optimum pH 6.8 and 5.0; and optimum temperature 37°C and 38°C respectively. The activities of enzymes were increased in presence of metallic salts such as Ca”*, Mg”*and Mn" while Fe”*, Zn** and Cu’* inhibited the activities moderately. The activities of all the enzymes were completely inhibited in the presence of higher concentration of EDTA.en_US
