Micro-Nutrient Content of Differently Dried Coco Yam/Plantain Mixed Flour Blends (P24-008-19)

Nutrient composition, functional, and pasting properties of unripe cooking banana, pigeon pea, and sweetpotato flour blends

This study investigated some quality attributes of unripe cooking banana (UBF), pigeon pea (PPF), and sweetpotato (SPF) flour blends. Simplex centroid mixture design was used to obtain 17 blends from the flours. The nutrient composition, color, and functional properties of the blends were evaluated using standard methods. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and treatment means were comp...

The effectiveness of fortified flour on micro-nutrient status in rural female adults in China.

This research was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of fortified flour on micronutrient status in poor rural adult women. A total of 4,700 farmers as the intervention group were supplied with multi-nutrient fortified wheat flour for three years, while 2750 farmers as the control group were supplied with unfortified wheat flour. Wheat flour was fortified with vitamins A, B-1, B-2, niacin, f...

Extruded Corn Flour Changed the Functionality Behaviour of Blends

Zeng J., Gao H., Li G., Liang X. (2011): Extruded corn flour changed the functionality behaviour of blends. Czech J. Food Sci., 29: 520–527. Functionalities and relationships between raw and extruded maize flour blends were studied. The extruded flour had higher water absorption and water solubility indices, and had no differential scanning calorimetry endotherm. The parameters of RVA peak, bre...

Evaluation of the Cake Quality Made from Acorn-Wheat Flour Blends as a Functional Food

Regarding the nutritional value and availability of acorns in west and southwest of Iran, the effects of partial substitution of wheat flour with acorn flour was investigated. Wheat flour was replaced by treated acorn flour in the formulation of sponge cake and the quality characteristics were evaluated. Density of cakes was increased with increasing the acorn flour. As the substitution degree ...
