Heating leaves in a closed atmosphere resulted in some loss
of mimosine(e.g. 50% reduction after 48 hour at 85%) Air drying
at elevated temparature gave sone reduction in mimosine
and conversion to DHP. Thus after 3 h at 60% an initial mimosine
content of 8.7% was reduced to 5.0 with 7.0 DHP formed.
this Institute showed that mimosine breakdown
