Protein insolubilization and thermal destabilization during storage as related to hard-to-cook defect in cowpeas
As storage duration at 30 o C/64% RH increased from 0 to 18 months, hard-to-cook (HTC) state of cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata) increased from 15.8 to 91.2 N/g, protein water extractability decreased… Expand

Effect of Milling and Particle Size on Functionality and Physicochemical Properties of Cowpea Flour
ABSTRACT Cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata) were milled through 0.5-, 1.0-, and 2.0- mm screens, and the flour was subsequently separated into different particle-size ranges. Such procedures caused only… Expand
