Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Accelerated dry aging of barley at 41 °C for 3 months decreased phytate by less than 2%.
- Intervention effect Accelerated dry aging of barley caused a slight drop in percent germination.
- Intervention effect Aging barley at 41 °C and 75% relative humidity decreased phytate levels by 5 to 10%, depending on cultivar.
- Observation No barley kernels germinated after aging at 41 °C and 75% relative humidity.
- Observation Beans stored dry at room temperature and ambient humidity for 14 months had no decrease in phytate.
- Observation Dry beans stored for 4 months at 41 °C had a 23% drop in phytate.
- Observation Bean phytate levels dropped by 27% at 41 °C and 75% relative humidity.
- Observation Phytate was more stable in barley kernels than in beans.
