Abstract: | The powder and the bran of algaroba pods, submitted to drying temperatures of 55, 65, 75, 85, 95 and 105°C, were studied by
conventional and thermogravimetric methods. The dynamic thermogravimetric curves of the samples indicated the following thermal
stability order: 105>55>65>95>85>75°C. The powder and the bran of algaroba pods, dried at 55°C, presented protein content
higher and isothermal thermogravimetric profiles comparable. The calorimetric curves of samples, dried at 55°C, indicated
the gelatinization of starch.
