1. The effect of isoenergetic substitution of bran and wholemeal bread for white flour and white bread was investigated in six healthy volunteers in a metabolic unit. 2. A 21 d high-fibre experimental period was preceded and followed by a 14 d control period, so that each experiment lasted 7 weeks. Blood samples were taken on each of the last 3 d and faeces collected (using carmine markers) for...

In order to evaluate eight different protein sources in honey bee nutrition, some experiments were conducted as a completely randomized designs with four replicates and three steps incubator, field and overwintering in Isfahan region. Protein sources were lentil flour, soybean flour, soybean meal, bread yeast, wheat gluten, skim milk powder, fish meal and Pollen. Results showed that the longevi...

In India, as in most of Asia, prevalence is higher in northern states as compared to southern ones. Three factors may account for these geographical differences, including: a) a higher availability of wheat flour in some regions or countries because of historical or geographical reasons; b) a different distribution of known genetic susceptibility markers among the general population, mainly rel...

Rice bread is a potential alternative to wheat bread for gluten-sensitive individuals. Incorporation of rice bran into bread made from white rice flour adds flavor but also phytic acid, which can reduce the bioavailability of minerals. Breads with varied amounts of defatted bran and yeast were prepared to determine their effects on the phytate and mineral contents of the bread. A completely ran...

Investigations were conducted on the level of the overall proteolytic activity in flour fractions as well as fine and bruise bran, obtained from four varieties of wheat (‘Zyta’, ‘Pegassus’, ‘Sukces’, ‘Tonacja’), subjected to pre-harvest sprouting. Moreover, an analysis was conducted on the effect of pre-harvest sprouting on the functional properties of flour, determining the physical properties...

flaxseed is rich in omega-3 essential fatty acids, lignans, dietary fiber and natural antioxidants such as tocopherols. because of its functional effect in preventing disease, flaxseed is used as an ingredient to fortify food formulations. bread is a major food product in iran. fortification of wheat flour with ground flaxseed makes use of the healthy benefits of flaxseed. this study investigat...

Cereal Chem. 83(5):529–536 The accuracy of using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for predicting 186 grain, milling, flour, dough, and breadmaking quality parameters of 100 hard red winter (HRW) and 98 hard red spring (HRS) wheat and flour samples was evaluated. NIRS shows the potential for predicting protein content, moisture content, and flour color b* values with accuracies suitable for pro...

As fermentation could reduce the negative effects of bran on final cereal products, the utilization of whole-cereal flour is recommended, such as brown rice flour as a functional food ingredient. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of fermented brown rice flour on white rice flour, white rice batter and its steamed bread qualities. Brown rice batter was fermented using commerc...

Nutrition has the great importance on human feeling. Moreover, there are some pathologies that can be cured only together with feeding correction. So, current article deals cause of chronic celiac disease which causes atrophy intestinal mucosa and, as a consequence, impairs proper digestion and absorption nutrients. The therapy for this consists an exclusive strict lifelong gluten-free diet. A ...
