Legume seeds and cereal grains’ capacity to accumulate iron while sprouting in order to obtain food fortifi cant.

Abstract

The smallest tolerance was noted for lentil seeds and wheat grains. Other plants developed in 25 mM solution of FeSO4. The highest accumulation of iron was observed in alfalfa sprouts. However, lupine and soybean seeds are the most recommended raw material for the production of the sprouts on an industrial scale.
