Abstract

Flours of two Saudi Arabian varieties, one with white and one with reddish-white grains, were similar in composition of proteins, minerals, fatty acids and vitamins and in vitro protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio. The white-grained variety had a lower tannin content (0.09% catechin equivalent) than the variety with reddish-white grains (0.27% catechin equivalent)
