Extrusion cooking and chemical leavening agents such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), may induce changes in carbohydrate fractions of extruded black bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) flours. Bean flours at 20% moisture, with NaHCO3 added at levels from 0.0 to 2.0%, were extruded at a screw speed of 200 rpm. The temperature profile ranged from 23 to 160C. Extruded bean flours with 0.1 to 0.4% added NaHCO3 were selected for sugar analyses based on color and flavor acceptability. The major sugars determined in the bean samples were galactose (0.10%), sucrose (2.08%), and stachyose (2.00%). Extruded samples had an increase in total sugars. Also, an increase in soluble fiber and a decrease of insoluble fiber fractions were observed. Sucrose was the only free sugar which concentration decreased consistently as a result of extrusion processing. Extrusion conditions and the selected levels of NaHCO3 used in this study did not significantly change the oligosaccharide content of the black bean flours.
