The bulk density varied from 0.7 to 0.8 g/ml, highest for plantain flour. Akubor and Obiegbuna (1999) reported that bulk density of a sample could be used in determining its packaging requirements as this relates to the load the sample can carry if allowed to rest directly on one another. Least gelation concentration (LGC) indicates the index of gelation capacity. The LGC of plantain, chickpea and refined wheat flour were 14, 10 and 20%, respectively. The variation in the gelling properties of flours was attributed to the relative ratio of protein, carbohydrates and lipids that make up the flours and interaction between such components (Sathe et al. 1982).
