Maillard Reaction Products (MRP) was prepared from glucose and glysine heated at 90˚C in air circulating oven for 12 hours. The effect of MRP on chlorophyll stability in green peas was investigated. The addition of Maillard Reaction Products (MRP) decreased the loss of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll. The conversion of pheophytin and pyropheophytin was also reduced by the addition of MRP.
