In: Ecology of Food and NutritionSummary: Cuando se secaron al sol hortalizas foliosas tropicales (Amaranthus sp., caupi, batata, yuca) frescos, se presentaron aumentos en el contenido de acido aspartico, acido glutamico, valina, leucina e isoleucina y reducciones en el contenido de lisina e histidina, lo que indica que existen interacciones complejas que involucran los compuestos portadores de N, en particular los aminoacidos. Las hojas secas de Amaranthus fueron ricas en todos los aminoacidos. Las hojas secas de caupi, yuca y batata tambien fueron ricas en aminoacidos esenciales, a excepcion de los aminoacidos sulfurados. (RA-CIAT)Summary: When fresh tropical leafy vegetables (Amaranthus sp., cowpea, sweet potato, cassava) were sun-dried, there were increases in aspartic acid, glutamic acid, valine, leucine, and isoleucine content and decreases in lysine and histidine, indicating complex interactions involving the N-bearing compounds, particularly the amino acids. Dried Amaranthus leaves were rich in all the essential amino acids. Dried cowpea, cassava, and sweet potato leaves were also rich in essential amino acids, except the S amino acids. (AS)
