Research of peanut sprout production by different varieties of peanut and its nutrition analysis

In order to explore the effects of different peanut varieties on the growth and nutritional ingredient, the peanut sprout was cultivated used by Huayu No.23 peanut, four red peanut, Huayu No.20 peanut, high oleic acid peanut and Huayu No.33 peanut as the raw material. Growth conditions and regulars of five different varieties of peanut sprout were recorded and discussed every day.The indexes including vitamin C, resveratrol, total sugar quantity, oil quantity, protein quantity and water quantity of different varieties of peanut sprout were determined.The results showed that four red peanut grew fastest and its total wet weight gaining rate reached 354.55% six days later.Four red peanut sprouts had the most abundant in nutrient content in all varieties.In albumen, the vitamin C content, resveratrol content and total sugar content were 40.05 mg/100 g, 34.20 mg/100 g and 87.31 μg, respectively.In stem, the protein content was 36.51%.Four red peanut sprouts had less fat and its oil content was only 37.18%.Therefore, four red peanut could be used the raw material to cultivate edible peanut sprouts to the market. This paper provides theoretical basis for the production of cultivated edible peanut sprout.
