Because legumes are good sources of protein, they make a healthy substitute for meat, which is extremely acidic and does not contain any fiber. Legumes are very versatile, and there are many great ways to include them in your meals and snacks. You can add them to salads, soups, stews, and casseroles or puree them to use as the basis for dips and spreads (such as the Hummus recipe on page 152). 

Typical applications for MSG are soups, sauces, ready-to-eat meals, meat and fish products, snacks, and vegetable products (with the exception of pickled products because of their low pH of 2 to 3). Typical usage levels of MSG are shown in Tab. 3.47. They range from 0.1 bis 0.6 % in finished food. There appears to be some variability from one person to another as to the preferred optimum level of use. Because MSG is readily soluble in water, recipes often call for dissolving it in the aqueous ingredients of products such as salad dressings before they are added to food.

From 2 to 3 values from the shallow branch of the B = F(t) curve (i.e., at long intervals) the experimenter estimates the bound ligand at t = °o (i.e., at equilibrium). For the nonspecific binding, a (n + 1) solution is run in parallel with an excess of nonradioactive ligand. This soup recipe yields only one binding value per time point, but this one is exact. If you don t believe this, you are welcome to cook the soup three times. You also save yourself time and pipetting work. A similar procedure also yields the best values for dissociation. If you have fast kinetics or want to get very exact measurements, you can try BIACORE (see Section 2.2.5).

When we know the balanced chemical equation for a reaction, we can determine the mole and mass relationships between the reactants and products. Then we use molar masses to calculate the quantities of substances used or produced in a particular reaction. We do much the same thing at home when we use a recipe to make a cake or add the right quantity of water to make soup. In the manufacturing of chemical compounds, side reactions decrease the percent of product obtained. From the actual amount of product, we can determine the percent yield for a reaction. Knowing how to determine the quantitative results of a chemical reaction is essential to chemists, engineers, pharmacists, respiratory therapists, and other scientists and health professionals.
