LINSEED SPROUTS PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L1/172 A01C1/00 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: linseed sprouts production method involves linseeds washing with distilled water with simultaneous removal of floating and damaged seeds. Seeds are treated with 0.0025% water solution of potassium permanganate and repeatedly washed with distilled water. Linseeds are placed for swelling into a flat vessel, distributed in a thin layer with thickness equal to 2-4 seeds between hygroscopic material layers, poured with electrochemically activated water with pH equal to 9…10 (catholyte) at a ratio of linseeds to electrochemically activated water being 1:2 and placed into a thermostat for 2 hours at a temperature of 25±2°C. Swollen seeds incubation is performed under moist conditions with periodical sprinkling of seeds surface with electrochemically activated water with pH equal to 9…10 (catholyte) in the thermostat at a temperature of 25±2°C during 12 hours till emergence of sprouts with length equal to 2-3 mm.

EFFECT: method allows to intensify the seeds sprouting process, increase biomass yield, enhance sprouting energy and seeds growth parameters percentage.
