Soaking soybeans in dilute acids affected activities of lipoxygenase, trypsin inhibitor and urease. Effects of soaking time, acid concentration and soaking temperature were investigated. Lipoxygenase activity was completely eliminated by soaking in 0.3 M HC1 at either 23°C or 40°C for 8 hr. Less than 50% trypsin inhibitor remained and urease was inactivated to an acceptable level (0.04 ΔpH).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
