Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO/INFOODS Database for Pulses on Dry Matter (PulsesDM1.0) – version 1.0 provides nutrient values for pulses, a subgroup of legumes that includes dry edible seeds with low fat content. The database is based on the average values presented in FAO/INFOODS Global Food Composition Database for Pulses (uPulses1.0) - version 1.0 but expressed per 100 g edible portion on dry matter. The majority of data are analytical data complemented by data from other published sources covering data on proximat es, minerals, vitamins, phytic acid, amino acids and fatty acids fractions in raw and processed forms.
