| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation was undertaken to assess the goitrogenic action of cassava. The study this antithyroid action of cassava hydrocyanic acid content of six varieties of cassava commonly used in Kerala were assessed. M-4 a popular variety and H-165 which contains the highest concentration of hydrocyanic acid were selected for further experiments. Under various processing methods, soaking and sundrying for four days was found to be the most effective detoxification method. Among the various food tasters tested, lime juice was found to be the most effective ingredient in reducing hydrocyanic acid content. A preliminary feeding trial was conducted for thirty days. | en_US |
