Effect of domestic processing techniques i.e. soaking, sprouting and cooking was seen on the anti nutrient constituents of kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris). Biological protein quality of sprouted and cooked grains was also estimated. Anti nutrient analyzed was phytic acid. Phytate phosphorus and non phytate phosphorus content was also estimated. Rats were fed on domestically processed kidney beans for estimation of protein efficiency ratio(PER), food efficiency ratio(FER) ,apparent protein digestibility(APD), true protein digestibility(TPD), Biological value(BV), net protein utilization(NPU) and net protein retention (NPR). Cooking of kidney beans resulted in a significant decrease in phytic acid and phytate phosphorus content as compared to sprouting. Sprouting and cooking resulted in an increase in FER and PER. Cooking resulted in an increase in biological protein quality of kidney beans. Domestically processed kidney beans have better biological protein quality.
