Bean cultivars (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under the spotlight of NMR metabolomics
The seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris are a rich source of protein consumed around the world and are considered as the most important source of proteins and antioxidants in the Mexican diet. This work reports on the 1H NMR metabolomics profiling of the cultivars Peruano (FPe), Pinto (FPi), Flor de mayo (FM), Negro (FN) and Flor de junio (FJ). Total phenolics, total flavonoids and total protein contents were determined to complement the nutritional facts in seeds and leaves. According to our results,...
