Abstract
Summary Rabadi fermentation of raw (freshly ground) as well as autoclaved barley flour at 30, 35, and 40°C for 6, 12, 18, 24, and 48 h brought about a significant increase in HCl-extractability of iron, copper, zinc, manganese, calcium, and phosphorus; longer periods and higher fermentation temperatures increased HCl-extractability. Increased non-phytate phosphorus and inorganic phosphorus in the fermented product, with a corresponding decrease in phytate phosphorus, was maximum at 40°C for 48 h and minimum at 30°C for 6 h. The level of phytic acid was significantly negatively correlated with HCl-extractability of minerals in the fermented products.
