  • Characterisation of marama bean protein 
    Amonsou, E.O. (Eric Oscar) (University of Pretoria, 2011)
    Marama bean, Tylosema species, is an underutilised indigenous oilseed legume from Southern Africa. It is a very good source of protein, similar to soya beans and peanuts. The marama plant is very hardy and drought-tolerant. ...
  • Composition of marama bean protein 
    Amonsou, E.O. (Eric Oscar); Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall); Beukes, Mervyn; Minnaar, Amanda (Elsevier, 2012-02)
    The protein composition of marama beans, an indigenous African oilseed legume, was determined in comparison with soya beans. Marama bean protein contained a substantial amount of tyrosine compared with soya bean protein. ...
  • Highly viscous dough-forming properties of marama protein 
    Amonsou, E.O. (Eric Oscar); Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall); Minnaar, Amanda (Elsevier, 2012-03)
    Marama bean is an indigenous Southern African oilseed legume with an unusual protein composition. Hence, its rheological properties were studied. Marama protein formed a highly viscous and extensible dough when compared ...
  • Microstructure of protein bodies in marama bean species 
    Amonsou, E.O. (Eric Oscar); Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall); Minnaar, Amanda (Elsevier, 2011-01)
    Marama bean is an underutilised indigenous legume from Southern Africa. The understanding of the microstructure of marama protein bodies, the organelles of protein storage, is an important step towards the characterisation ...
