Abstract:
One of the biggest challenges in using African locus beans is the processing method, depriving many rural women of the opportunity to earn daily income. However, this study was conducted to determine the perceived impact of African locust bean processing on rural women's income in Asa and Ilorin East Local Government Areas. A multi-stage sampling procedure was used to select 300 respondents. Primary data was collected using a structured interview schedule. The results showed that the majority of the respondents (71.2%) use traditional methods to process African locust beans. There was a positi

This study assesses the effect of different packaging materials on the microbial quality of Africa Locust beans during storage. Locust beans (Dawadawa) also known as iru, among the Yorubas in South-west Nigeria, is a popular condiment used as a taste and flavour enhancer in soup and dishes in Africa. Locust bean is traditionally produced from locust beans seed (Parkia biglobosa) and preserved using different packaging materials before use in order to prolong its shelf life. The Microbiological examination of the produced locust beans was carried out on samples wrapped with different packaging

The traditional method of dehulling legumes such as cowpea, soya beans and locust beans is by rubbing the seeds between the palms or by pounding in mortar but this process consumes time and energy and in some cases unhygienic. An improved wet legume dehuller was designed and fabricated to de-hull wet legumes. It was designed to work on the principle of compression for the splitting of the soaked seed coat. The de-hulling is achieved by shear and friction between the beans coat and the wall of the de-hulling chamber. This machine was designed and fabricated using locally available materials and

Aqueous dispersions of xanthan and locust bean gum, in combination, show a synergistic increase in viscosity. At sufficiently high concentrations, firm gels are formed, although neither component forms true gels when alone. The actual molecular processes resulting in this phenomenon are still incompletely understood and Theological studies can provide some clues to the mechanism of the interaction.

Galactomannans, composed of galactose and mannose, may form gels and are considered safe because of their non-toxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible nature. As a result, they are widely utilized in the food industry as stabilizers and thickeners. Among galactomannan producing species, guar gum and locust bean gum are particularly important due to their economical relevance. Guar gum and locust bean gum are often adulterated with cellulose gums like xanthan gum and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC).
