| Research Abstract |
Among the legume seeds some are used as vegetables and others as supplementary sources of protein in animal group an important source of lipid and fatty acids in animal and human nutrition. The interrelationship between the content of vitamin E homologues and the distribution of lipid components, fatty acids and further triacylglycerol molecular species in several pulses has been investigated, and many significant useful informations have been obtained from these research projects.
To the best of the authors' knowledge this is the first report of the distribution patterns of vitamin E homologues, lipid components, fatty acids and triacylglycerol molecular species. The data obtained from these works would be provided useful information to both consumers and producers for manufacturing functional foods or drinks in Japan and elsewhere.
