“…Between white and blackcoloured accessions, the white-coloured accessions seem to contain higher levels of L-Dopa than the black-coloured accessions (Table 2). These values are found to be lower than the other species of the genus, Mucuna, such as M. andreana (6.3-8.9%); M. birdwoodiana (9.1%); M. holtonii (6.13-7.5%); M. mutisiana and M. urens (4.92-7.4) (Ingle, 2003) and an earlier report from our laboratory in the same species (Janardhanan & Lakshmanan, 1985) and comparable with the species of M. cochinsinensis; M. gigantea and M. monosperma (Rajaram & Janardhanan, 1991).…”

“…The crude protein content of P. roxburghii is close to that of commonly cultivated pulses such as Phaseolus mungo and Phaseolus (Gupta and Wagle, 1978), chickpea Sotelo el al., 1987;Luz Fernandez and Berry, 1988) and Cajanus cajan (Jambunathan and Singh, 1981;Oshodi and Ekperigin, 1989), whereas the crude protein content of E. phaseoloides seems to be nearer to the values of Voandzeia subterranea (Doku et al, 1978), Acacia catechu (Rajaram and Janardhanan, 1991a) and Bauhinia racemosa (Rajaram and Janardhanan, 1991b).…”

Raw seeds of tribal pulses, Parkia roxburghii and Entada phaseoloides, were analysed for proximate and mineral composition, seed protein fractions, seed protein amino acid profiles, fatty acid profiles of lipids and anti-nutritional factors. The seeds of P. roxburghii contain higher contents of crude protein and crude lipid compared to E. phaseoloides resulting in high energy value. Both the seeds were rich in potassium and iron. The seeds of E. phaseoloides were found to be a rich source of minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, zinc and manganese. Albumins and globulins constituted the predominant fractions of the seed proteins. In P. roxburghii and E. phaseoloides the contents of the essential amino acids, isoleucine, leucine, tyrosine and phenylalanine, were fairly high. Fatty acids such as oleic and linoleic acids were found to be relatively high in both the tribal pulses. Anti-nutritional factors such as total free phenols, tannins, L-DOPA (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalaline) and haemagglutinating activity also were analysed or assayed.

“…Due to the presence of several anti-nutritional factors (L-dopa, lectins and enzyme inhibitors) in mucuna seed meal (Rajaram and Janardhanan 1991) it is necessary to process the meal before including it in fish diets, especially at high levels of inclusion. Boiling could reduce the anti-nutritional factors (Azra et al 2008), decreasing the concentration of L-dopa and other anti-nutritional factors, as suggested by Siddhuraju et al (1996).…”

The partial replacement of fishmeal with mucuna seed meal in the diet of cultured juvenile Clarias gariepinus was tested over 70 days to determine their growth, nutrient and economic performance. The 25% fishmeal component of the control diet was replaced with 5-15% raw or processed mucuna seed meal and the fish were fed twice daily at 5% of their average body weight per day. The diet containing 5% raw mucuna seed meal resulted in the best specific growth rate (2.42% d -1 ), feed conversion ratio (2.05) and protein efficiency ratio (1.34), as well as the highest net profit of US$0.065 per fish and the best benefit-cost ratio of 1.32. The diet containing 15% processed seed meal produced the worst results. The processing of mucuna seed resulted in improved crude protein and ether extract and a 20% reduction in crude fibre.
