The effects of high temperature short time (HTST) treatment compared with other conventional processes on protein, phytic acid, condensed tannins, polyphenols, trypsin, chymotrypsin and alpha-amylase inhibitor activities and haemagglutinating activities in Renata, Solara and Ballet pea seeds were investigated. Ballet cultivar showed highest protein, phytic acid, tannin, polyphenol contents and trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitory activities. All pea cultivars contained trypsin- and chymotrypsin-inhibiting activity and lectins but only Solara had alpha-amylase inhibitory activity. Under extrusion conditions (148 degrees C, 25% moisture and 100 rpm) this thermal processing method was the most effective in condensed tannin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, alpha-amylase inhibitors and haemagglutinating activity reduction, without modifying protein content as occurs by dehulling, soaking and germination treatments. Trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitors and haemagglutinating activities in peas were more readily abolished by extrusion treatment than was chymotrypsin inhibitory activity.
