Cereal Chem. 66(3):224-227 A reconstituted whole wheat bread (containing 16.3% bran plus 12.7% was included in the baking process. Addition of a high level of enzymeshorts) with a loaf volume equal to the control was obtained by allowing active soy flour eliminated the need for the no-yeast sponge stage. Certain indigenous lipoxygenase (soaking the nonflour milling fractions) or added salts and...

Cereal Chem. 76(4):548–551 The complete amino acid sequence of an α-type gliadin from spelt wheat (spelta) has been deduced from the cloned DNA sequence and compared with α-type gliadin sequences from bread wheat. The comparison showed only minor differences in amino acid sequences between the α-type gliadin from bread wheat and the α-type gliadin from spelta. The two sequences had an identity ...

Recent research on the wheat curl mite species complex has revealed extensive genetic diversity that has distinguished several genetic lineages infesting bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and other cereals worldwide. Turkey is the historical region of wheat and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) domestication and diversification. The close relationship between these grasses and the wheat curl mite pr...

BACKGROUND The metabolic syndrome markedly increases the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but the influence of dietary modification on insulin and glucose metabolism independent of weight loss is still poorly understood. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to test whether carbohydrate dietary modifications improve insulin sensitivity and secretion and glucose tolerance in overweight or o...

Combinations of proline and glutamine significantly increased the functional properties of soft wheatthat were unseen when added individually. To hard wheat, proline contributed more positively than glutamine onmost dough and bread properties, which is different from the observations with soft wheat. Addition of glutamine tohard wheat increased the amount of gluten and glutenin afte...

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) has a greater ability to exclude Na+ from its leaves and is more salt tolerant than durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum [Desf.]). A novel durum wheat, Line 149, was found to contain a major gene for Na+ exclusion, Nax2, which removes Na+ from the xylem in the roots and leads to a high K+-to-Na+ ratio in the leaves. Nax2 was mapped to the distal region ...

1. Cereals : (i) The total quantity of rationed cereals should be as laid down, from time to time, by the rationing authorities. At present, it is 12 ozs. per day per patient. It should preferably be distributed in the proportions indicated against rice, bread, wheat flour, etc. in the different diet scales. (ii) Undermilled rice a ,, wholemeal bread sho be used in. place of nil and/or polished...

1. When nineteen "free-living" male students, who normally ate 231 (SEM 14) g white bread/d changed to wholemeal bread for a 19-week period, there was no significant change in body-weight, plasma cholesterol or plasma triglyceride levels. These values, as well as plasma concentrations of calcium, phosphate, urate and haemoglobin, remained essentially the same as those for a control group. 2. In...

A consumer test of composite cassava: maize: wheat (40:10:50) breads prepared with improvers, 0.3% emulsifiers, either as lecithin (LC) or diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono-diglycerides (DATEM), and 3% hydrocolloids, either as high-methylated pectin (HM pectin) or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), was carried out in supermarkets in Mozambique. Overall acceptance and sensory attributes such as a...
