Abstract: Legumes play an vital function in human body due to dietary fiber, protein, minerals and vitamins and well-balanced essential amino acid. Legume proteins have gained increasing significance because of preferred functional properties, including gelling and emulsifying properties. Legumes contains anti nutritional compounds like Trypsin inhibitor(TIs), Phytic acid(PA), Tannin, Saponin, Lectins, They are not a major concern for most people, but may become a problem during periods of malnutrition, these can be easily removed by dehulled, cooking, thermal process, germination after soaking. Protein isolates are advanced form of protein containing the greater amount of protein with greater digestibility. There are different types of protein isolates like chickpea, whey protein Pea protein, cowpea protein isolates .The extraction methods of protein isolates are Iso electric extraction and alkaline extraction, citric acid extraction. Our aim of this paper is to optimize the protein isolate for diet people and innovate research in this field to produce some protein enriched food formulations.
