this study determined the effects of carboxymethylcellulose gel on rheological properties of bread dough, quality parameters for barbari bread (volume, specific volume, hardness and softness of texture, cooking loss, water activity), and sensory properties of fresh bread. hydrocolloid carboxymethylcellulose (cmc) was added at 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% w/w (flour basis) to wheat flour. a farinograph was us...

Alginates are classed as a dietary fibre and have been shown to inhibit digestive enzymes in vitro, and therefore could be used as an obesity treatment. The current study aims to assess whether alginate in a bread vehicle maintains its inhibition properties despite cooking and digestion, and may therefore be used as a potential treatment for obesity. After 180 min in a model gut that replicates...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of buttermilk on the physicochemical and sensory attributes of pan and pita breads. Different amounts of buttermilk (30, 60, and 100% of added water) were mixed with other ingredients of pan and pita bread formulations. The doughs and bread were analyzed for rheological, physicochemical, and sensory qualities. The results demonstrated that inc...

BACKGROUND The present study designed to test effects of defatted soy-fortified wheat bread on the organoleptic properties as well as influences on rat growth rate. METHODS Defatted soy flour (DSF) was blended with wheat flour with extraction rate of 82-84% at 3, 7, and 7% levels plus 3% sugar. Bread produced with these blends compared with regular Taftoon bread and was tested for chemical an...

in the baking industry, use of hydrocolloid technology to improve the operation and to increase the tolerance to paste fermentation conditions, improve quality and increase the shelf life of fresh as well as stored bread, is of large applications. this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of gel of sodium alginate on rheological properties of dough and quality (volume, specific volu...

Background: Spirulina platensis is a photosynthetic microalgae with fibrous filamentous that belongs to the cyanobacteria family. In this study, we investigated the effects of ethanol and methanol extracts as well as the powder of spirulina platensis microelements on the sensory and texture properties of the bread. Methods: In order to determine the texture characteristics, we applied a texture...

Recent efforts have focused on the use of sericin proteins extracted from cocoons of silkworm as a healthy food source for human consumption. In this study, we focused on the antioxidative properties of sericin proteins. The antioxidative properties were measured in sericin proteins extracted from the shell of the cocoon, designated hereafter as white sericin protein and yellow-green sericin pr...
