Abstract

In recent years there has been an increased interest in lupins as a food ingredient due to its demonstrated health benefits. Wild-type lupins often have high levels of alkaloids. In modern medicine, alkaloids such as morphine, quinine and codeine are widely used as drugs. High levels (> 200 mg/kg) of lupin alkaloids are generally unpalatable and considered unacceptably toxic to both humans and livestock, however, the lupin alkaloids have a role in reducing insect infestation when present at sufficiently high levels. Lower levels are generally recognised as safe for humans and animals. Therefore, the right balance of alkaloids is essential in commercial lupin varieties.
