Substitute for alum in making bread

The Chemistry of Bread Making

Substitute decision-making for cognitively impaired older people.

Editorials Éditoriaux A bout 10% of elderly residents in chronic care facilities are tube-fed. Yet there is persuasive evidence that common beliefs about tube-feeding cannot be supported: tube-feeding is not similar to spoon-feeding, it is not necessarily indicated in patients with aspiration pneumonia , swallowing evaluations are not very helpful in selecting patients for tube-feeding, and whe...

Effects of Bread Making and Wheat Germ Addition on the Natural Deoxynivalenol Content in Bread

Deoxynivalenol (DON, vomitoxin) is a type-B trichothecene mycotoxin produced by several field fungi such as Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum and known to have various toxic effects. This study investigated the effect of the bread making process on the stability of DON in common bread and wheat germ-enriched bread using naturally contaminated ingredients at the level of 560 µg/kg. The ...

Characteristics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from fruits and humus: Their suitability for bread making

The objectives of this study were to clarify whether the wild yeast isolated from fruits and humus is suitable forbread making. Using colony PCR, assimilation of carbohydrate and 18S rRNA sequencing, seven strains fromamong 70 samples were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The ethanol and CO2 production by the 10-2 wild yeast strain were highest among the strains. The pH and utilized gluc...

Using Scrap Tires in EAFs as a Substitute for Carbon

EAF plants normally consume coal and coke as reactants, alloying elements, or fuel. The price of these materials varies from € 0.20-0.35/kg. This is while nearly 10 million pieces of tires are annually discarded in Iran. The present study shows that scrap tires can be used as a substitute for coal and coke in EAF plants. Thirteen grades of steel including low, medium, and high carbon steels as ...
