Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), the third most
widely produced food legume in all over the world, is consumed for its
protein-rich seeds especially in developing countries. According to seed
morphology, cultivated chickpeas are of two types as desi and kabuli. There is
a growing interest if extracts obtained from chickpea grains might be used as a
source of natural antioxidants and antimicrobials such as phenolic or flavonoid
compounds. The objective of this work is to investigate the total phenolic,
flavonoid and protein contents of a desi (ICC 3996) type and three kabuli
(Seçkin, İnci and Hasanbey) types of chickpea seeds. Analyses were performed in
extracts of 24 hours imbibed grains. The Folin Ciocalteu procedure was used to
assess the total phenolic amounts while the total flavonoid content was
measured with an aluminium chloride colorimetric assay. Total protein
concentration was determined according to the Biuret method. Desi type
exhibited the lowest protein content whereas İnci had the highest levels of
total protein among kabuli types. Total phenolic content of desi type was
significantly higher than other genotypes (P≤0.05).
Seçkin showed lower flavonoid content than all other genotypes including the
desi type. The results revealed that despite Turkish genotypes were richer in
protein level, desi type was still valuable for its high total phenolic and
flavonoid amounts.
