Abstract
The in vitro amylolysis of ungerminated and germinated chick pea and green gram was studied using various enzymes. The legume samples were incubated with alpha-amylase, beta-amylase, pancreatin or pancreatic amylase. The effect of HCl, or HCl-pepsin preincubation (prior to amylolysis) was also studied. Starches were isolated from the ungerminated and germinated chick pea and green gram and were incubated with alpha-amylase and beta-amylase and the hydrolytic products were resolved using paper chromatography, identified and quantitated. Germination upto 48 h improved the carbohydrate digestibility while the 96 hours germination did not have any effect. Digestibility was better when the legumes were treated with beta-amylase than when they were treated with alpha-amylase. HCl-pepsin preincubation improved the digestibility. When starches isolated from chick pea were treated with alpha-amylase, the relative proportion of end products was altered as a result of germination, whereas in the case of green gram, the relative proportion of end products did not alter.
