Abstract

Meal and oil isolated from Velvet Beans „Stizolobium deeringianum”︁ were examined for the nutritive value and the possibility of using in human nutrition. Beside the nutritional studies, the oil analysis and the histological examination of the different organs of the rats used were made. It was found that the toxic factors are located only in the protein fraction of the beans.
