Abstract
The present work aimed the application of different ultrasound powers (10, 50 and 90W) to evaluate the germination and characteristics of soybean sprouts fromsoybeans of cultivar BRS 216 and 3 lines (A, B and C). In the germination test,the line A showed the highest percentage of germination (96% for 90W).The cultivar BRS 216 and line A present lower values of weight and higher yield of sprouts. The viable sprouts that presented the highest weight (for each 50g of soybean) were: line A followed by BRS 216, line C and B, with statistical differences (p<0.05) between them. For each 50g of soybean of cultivar BRS 216 and Lines A, B and C the production of viable sprouts was 231.47; 237.87; 170.74 and 199.94g, respectively, for 90W. In relation to the length of the sprouts using the power of 10W the line C presented a longer length. The line A using 90W showed better color characteristics. The highest protein value was found in cultivar BRS 216, for all applied potencies. With this work it can be concluded that the line A would be the most suitable for sprout production regardless of the ultrasound power applied
