Abstract

The improvements of minerals absorption and bone dentistry in rats using crude and manufacture soybean were investigated. Soybean powder contained high amount of protein, carbohydrates, fat, ash, fiber. The highest mineral contents recorded for calcium and phosphorus, while the lowest values for zinc and iron. The whole soybean contains higher amount of all tested isoflavones (diadazein, genistein, isoformantine and biochanine) when compared with manufactured. The biological studies indicated that the highest body minerals density recorded for group fed on soybean powder (56.5) and group fed on soybean tablet (3.06) with no significant difference. The highest body minerals concentration recorded for group fed on soybeans powder (28.25) and group fed on soybean tablet (1.53) with significant difference. The highest calcium after 15 days recorded for group fed on soybean powder (56.5), phosphorus recorded for group fed on soybean powder (28.25), iron for group fed on soybean tablets (3.06) and zinc recorded for group fed on soybean tablets (1.53). The mean values were 5.62 mg/dl, 3.05 mg/dl, 0.65 µg/dl and 2.26 µg/dl, respectively.The highest calcium after 45 days recorded for group fed on soybean powder (28.25), phosphorus for group fed on soybean powder (28.25), iron recorded for group fed on soybean power (28.25) and zinc recorded for group fed on soybean tablets (1.53) with significant difference. The highest calcium after ashing recorded for group fed on soybean soybeans tablets (1.53), phosphorus recorded for group fed on soybeans tablets (3.06), iron recorded for group fed on soybeans tablets (1.53) and zinc recorded for group fed on soybean powder (56.5) with significant difference.In conclusion, crude soybean was higher than manufactured for improvement of minerals absorption and bone dentistry in rats.
