“…moisture and temperature, was based on earlier studies (Adeleye et al, 2020;Al-Rabadi et al, 2011). The chemical composition of raw African yam beans, Bambara groundnut and Pigeon pea flours observed in this study are similar to those published in earlier literature and databases (Heuz e et al, , 2017Nwokolo, 1987;Solomon et al, 2017). Increased dietary fibre content of extrudates as observed in this study, was also observed in wheat and barley flours extruded at temperatures between 150 C and 200 C. Conversely, no significant effect of extrusion at 140 C to 180 C was observed on total dietary fibre of two cultivars of Phaseolus vulgaris, although a significant redistribution of insoluble to more water soluble fibre fractions was reported (Martin-Cabrejas et al, 1999).…”
