Notizen:
Alfalfa seeds were germinated for 120 hr utilizing solutions of 0.05M (NH4SO4, 0.05M urea, 0.05M KNO3, 0.1M KNO3 or distilled water for rinsing. One of the water rinsed samples was flushed with CO2 after each rinse. Proximate analysis, NPN, amino acids and reduced ascorbic acid contents were measured to determine the effect of germination environment on the nutrient composition. The sprouts had significantly increased crude protein values but reduced fat and carbohydrate concentrations as compared to the seeds. True protein content increased significantly in the sprouts rinsed with 0.05M (NH4SO4 or 0.1M KNO3. The essential amino acid patterns of these were not significantly affected. Although the treatments used did not appear to affect adversely the composition of the sprouts, visually the sprouts did suffer somewhat.
