The seeds of two species of Erythrina were studied in connection with their alkaloid content and nutritive value. The alkaloids present in the seeds were the main toxic components that impede the use of the seeds as food since the whole seeds killed the experimental animals. However, the detoxified seed flour showed a good-quality protein; although the process did not destroy the trypsin inhibitors present in the seed, it did not affect the growth of the weanling rats.
