- Phytate is the main phosphorus storage compound in the plant. This molecule, also called phytic acid or inositol hexa-phosphate (I ⁇ sl'6 or mvo-inositol hexakisphosphatc), consists of a cyclohexane on which are connected six phosphate groups. Phytate represents about 70% of the vegetable phosphate, the remaining 30% being present in free form. On the other hand, phosphate residues of phytate chelate divalent and trivalent cations such as metal ions calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, copper, manganese and mohbdenum essential for nutrition.
