Popis: International audience; Simulations of gastro-intestinal digestion, used to estimate in vitro iron and zinc availability, were performed on two kinds of samples: (i) samples with decreased phytate contents from whole pearl millet flour and (ii) nondephytinized or dephytinized samples from two pearl millet grain fractions, a decorticated fraction with low fiber and tannin contents and a bran fraction with high fiber and tannin contents. Iron and zinc in vitro availabilities of whole pearl millet flour were significantly improved by phytate degradation, even if the IP6 were not all degraded. Total dephytinization of decorticated fraction led to a marked increase in iron and zinc in vitro availabilities, but that of bran fraction had no effect on either iron or zinc in vitro availability. Even if phytates are involved in reducing in vitro iron and zinc availability in pearl millet flour, fibers and tannins play an important role by chelating a high proportion of iron and zinc in grain hulls.
