The effect of different germination conditions, namely, germination time and total presence or absence of light, on the content of the various nitrogen fractions, three essential protein amino acids (Lys, His, and Tyr) and one non-protein amino acid (Orn), was studied in peas, beans, and lentils. The influence of light during germination on the parameters considered varied according to the legume but on the whole was less important than the influence of germination time in quantitative terms. In all three legumes, prolonging the germination time yielded flours that contained more non-protein nitrogen (NPN) and Orn and less protein nitrogen (PN) and Lys, while the changes in the His and Tyr contents varied with legume type. In addition, changes in the Lys, Tyr, and Orn contents correlated with the changes in the NPN and PN levels in the germinated legumes.
