Abstract
The effects of six coagulating agents (CaCl2, MgCl2, CaSO4, MgSO4, alum and steep water from a local pap producing industry) on the percentage yield, nutrient, and anti-nutrient composition of tofu samples produced was studied. The percentage yield ranged from 58.69% for tofu coagulated with CaSO4 to 68.15% for tofu coagulated with MgCl2; and were significantly different (p<0>
