## Abstract The relationship of hydrophobicity and solubility with some functional properties of cowpea protein isolate was determined. Cowpea protein isolate was prepared by alkali extraction followed by precipitation at pH 4.5. The precipitated proteins were then neutralized to pH 7. Heating of t

A partially puriรผed globulin from cowpea seeds was polymerised by calcium-independent microbial transglutaminase. The level of free amino groups in the globulin decreased with increase in enzyme concentration, suggesting that the cross-linking reaction involved participation of the amino residues. A
Damage by insects and mould, proximate composition, cooking rate and functional properties of sun-dried and stored cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) seeds were evaluated. Cowpea samples spread between black polythene ยฎlms were placed on cement (CS), Wooden (WS) and corrugated iron sheet (CIS) surfaces, res
