Interactions among macronutrients in wheat flour determine their enzymic susceptibility

Effects of Zn, macronutrients, and their interactions through foliar applications on winter wheat grain nutritional quality

Although application of Zn combined with macronutrients (K, P, and N) can be used to fortify wheat grain with Zn, little is known about their interactions when foliar application is employed or the influences of common soil fertility management practices (e.g. N and straw management) on their efficiency. Therefore, the effects of foliar-applied Zn and N, P, or K on grain nutritional quality (es...

Thermal Properties of Wheat Flour

Genotypic Variation in Wheat Flour Lysophospholipids.

Lysophospholipids (LPLs) are the most abundant polar lipids in wheat endosperm and naturally complex with amylose, affecting starch physicochemical properties. We analyzed LPLs in wheat flour from 58 cultivars which differ by grain hardness using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS). There were significant differences in LPL content between cultivars, demonstrating that genotype rathe...

Effect of wheat flour, Bengal gram flour and corn flour on lipid metabolism in rats.

Male albino rats were fed on respective diets of wheat flour, Bengal gram flour and corn flour for 8 weeks at the 59% level. It was observed that the increase in weight after wheat flour and Bengal gram flour feeding was 6.8 and 12.0% respectively and that the decrease after corn flour feeding was 5.2% as compared to the control animals on sucrose diet. Serum cholesterol and liver cholesterol l...

Cereal Pentosans: Their Estimation and Significance. IV. Pentosans in Wheat Flour Varieties and Fractions

Cereal Chem. 65(3):182-185 Total and water-soluble pentosans were determined in flours milled from absorption and soluble pentosans were correlated, and the correlation hard red winter, hard red spring, and soft red winter wheat cultivars grown coefficient increased if the results were expressed on a constant protein at various locations and environments; in two sets of commercial airbasis. In ...
