Optimization of Provitamin A Maize and Iron-Rich Bean-Based Composite Flour for Improved Child Nutrition. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrIn order to improve child nutrition, the study optimized a composite flour derived from iron‐rich beans and provitamin A maize using Response Surface Methodology. High levels of β‐carotene (1.58 μg/g), iron (6.0 mg/100 g), and sensory acceptability were obtained from the ideal blend (57.9% maize, 17.1% beans, 10% soy, 5% sesame, 5% wheat, and 5 ...

Understanding the Protective Effect of Phytate in Bone Decalcification Related-Diseases
Nutrients, 2021 Myo-inositol hexaphosphate (phytate; IP6) is a natural compound that is abundant in cereals, legumes, and nuts, and it can bind to crystal surfaces and disturb crystal development, acting as crystallization inhibitor. The adsorption of such inhibitors to

Phytate levels in diverse rat tissues: influence of dietary phytate [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2001 Phytate (inositol hexaphosphate; InsP6) was determined in rat tissues fed on diets with different phytate contents, using a GC–mass detection methodology that permitted the evaluation of the total amount of this substance present in such tissues.

Dietary phytate induces subclinical mechanical allodynia in mice
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2023 Neuropathic pain is a condition with varying origins, including reduced dietary micronutrient intake. Phytate is a polyphosphate found in seeds and grains that can act as an antinutrient due to the ability of sequester essential divalent metals.

A defective ABC transporter of the MRP family, responsible for the bean lpa1 mutation, affects the regulation of the phytic acid pathway, reduces seed myo-inositol and alters ABA sensitivity [PDF]
, 2011 We previously identified the lpa1 (low phytic acid) 280-10 line that carries a mutation conferring a 90% reduction in phytic acid (InsP6) content. In contrast to other lpa mutants, lpa1(280-10) does not display negative pleiotropic effects.

Targeting Low-Phytate Soybean Genotypes Without Compromising Desirable Phosphorus-Acquisition Traits
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Phytate-phosphorus (P) in food and feed is not efficiently utilized by humans and non-ruminant livestock, potentially contributing to high losses of P to the environment. Crops with high P-acquisition efficiency can access soil P effectively.
