Background and objectives Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.), such as other cereals, contains several interesting bioactive compounds mostly found within the coating structure of kernel; also, these structures included in bran fractions, contain highest concentration both minerals organic contaminants (mycotoxins). The purpose this project was to employ micronization air-classification technolo...

The paper presents information about the cultivation of spring durum wheat in conditions Northern Kazakhstan. Methods for assessing quality grain and semolina breeding process are shown: SDS sedimentation, protein content according to Kjeldahl, content, index gluten using Glutomatic 2200 system, vitreousness, hardness SKCS 4100, carotenoid pigments, measurements color a CR-colorimeter. 410, Kon...

The present study utilized beef-lungs to develop a protein ingredient for affordable human food supplements. Beef-lungs were dried in an air drier at 50, 70 and 100 °C ground powder-based intermediate product. All beef-lung powder (BLP) samples different temperatures showed 300% water-binding capacity. Drying temperature significantly decreased the haem-iron content quality with highest observe...

The importance of wheat has mainly been attributed to its ability to be ground into flour and semolina that form the basic ingredients of bread and pasta, respectively, while bran is mainly used for animal feeding. However, many epidemiological studies have demonstrated that health beneficial effects of whole wheat were attributed to the bioactive factors in bran and aleurone, such as non-diges...

Gari, a fermented and dried semolina made from cassava, is one of the most common foods in West Africa. Recently introduced biofortified yellow cassava containing provitamin A carotenoids could help tackle vitamin A deficiency prevalent in those areas. However there are concerns because of the low retention of carotenoids during gari processing compared to other processes (e.g. boiling). The ai...
