Soy Supplementation of a Maize Based Kenyan Food (Ugali)

Abstract: The effects of soy-supplementation of maize meal on the nutritive value of Kenyan Ugali was determined by consideration of amino acids, available lysine, minerals, phytate, oligosaccharides, protein and in vitro protein digestibility. Supplementation at lo%, 20%, and 30% of soy flour resulted in (a) increased protein ranging from 12.6% to 19.6% (b) increased chemical score ranging from 74 to 87; (c) increase in available lysine of Ugnli ranging from 2.61 to 5.11 g/ 16gN and, (d) increases in minerals, phytate,… Show more

“…The variation may be due to varietal differences. The protein content of T.africana in this study (17.57%) is lower than what has been reported for soyabean (50.8%) but higher than that of maize (7.6%), (Nyotu et al,, 1986). The high protein content of T.africana seed flour shows that it could be useful in ameleorating protein deficiency conditions such as Kwashiorkor (PAG,1971).…”

“…Other workers have reported similar increases in protein and fat contents of cereal-legume blends. [19,9] The proximate composition of extruded fura from pearl millet, and pearl milletgrain legume flour blends and traditional dried fura are presented in Table 3. There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in protein, fat, ash, crude fiber, and ash contents of fura samples.…”

“…A adição de 10; 20; 30; 40 e 50% de soja aumentou teores de proteína (% base seca) de 8,66 para 12,22; 16,53; 19,94; 25,53 e 27,23%, respectivamente (Ta-bela 2). Resultados semelhantes foram encontrados por Nyotu et al (1986).…”
