Steam explosion was evaluated as a detoxification method for rapeseed meals. A series of two factor experiments were performed with different steam pressures (1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.4, 3.2 and 4.0 MPa) and different treatment times (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 s). When the steam pressure was increased to 1.6 MPa or higher, 99% glucosinolates could be removed within 180 s. Their toxic breakdown products, including isothiocyanates, oxazolidinethiones and nitriles, were also reduced by 97, 93 and 59%, respectively. A model experiment confirmed that they were taken away by the steam. The effect of steam explosion on amino acids was also investigated. Lysine, arginine, aspartate, cysteine, methionine and tryptophan contents were reduced by 21, 24, 14, 13, 17 and 8%, respectively. Steam explosion is a fast and simple detoxification method, but it negatively affects amino acids.
