Ten bean cultivars grown in southern Manitoba in 2006 were evaluated for variability in phytate, phenolic, and mineral contents, phytase activity, and antioxidant properties to elucidate the relationship of these components. Phytic acid content and phytase activity varied significantly among cultivars and market classes, ranging from 16.7 to 25.1 g/kg and from 224 to 361 phytase activity unit/kg of sample, respectively. The bean cultivars with total phenolic content ranging from 2.2 to 5.6 g of catechin equiv/kg of sample exhibited significant variation in antioxidant capacity [1.6-11.2 μM Trolox equiv (TE)/g of dry matter] and peroxyl radical scavenging activity (72-158 μM TE/g) using photochemiluminescence and fluorescence assays, respectively. Multivariate data analysis performed on 22 components analyzed in this study using principal component analysis and cluster methods demonstrate that differences in phytase, antioxidant activity, mineral contents, and bioavailability are much larger within market class than among bean cultivars.
