The objectives of this study was to investigate the influences of increasing levels of transglutaminase (TG) on dough rheological properties and the characteristics of white salted noodles regarding two Korean wheat cultivars, cvs. Keumkang and Younbaek, and commercial wheat flour for noodle making (Com), and to evaluate quality of white salted noodles from 13 Korean wheat flours with the 0.4% ...

The sulfhydryl oxidase (SHOxase; EC. 1.8.3.2) which catalyzes the oxidation of sulfhydryl groups to disulfides was purified from Aspergillus niger using a combination of chromatographies. The influence of SHOxase on starch properties was tested by rheometer, farinographand scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the gelatinization and retrogradation were studied by differential scanning c...

Genetic and environmental factors that affect the formation of glutenin macropolymer (GMP) particles were investigated by growing Lance 5C 10, Lance 2C12, Warigal 5C10 and Warigal 2C12 lines under widely differing temperature regimes in greenhouse conditions. The GMP characteristics and mixing properties of flour extracted from mature wheat kernels were systematically studied. The amount of GMP...

A three-dimensional (3-D) bio-imaging technique was developed for visualizing and quantifying the 3-D distribution of yeast in frozen bread dough samples in accordance with the progress of the mixing process of the samples, applying cell-surface engineering to the surfaces of the yeast cells. The fluorescent yeast was recognized as bright spots at the wavelength of 520 nm. Frozen dough samples ...

the effect of wheat-sorghum flour ratio (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) on viscoelastic and farinographic behaviour of dough was investigated. constants of peleg - normand model and the stress relaxation (% sr) was calculated for the variables and the correlation between farinograph characteristics and stress relaxation test parameters were evaluated. the results showed that with increasing the ratio ...

In the dough, carbon sources are constituted of flour glucides represented by small quantities of glucose, fructose and sucrose. Glucose and fructose can be directly metabolised as they are diffused through the cellular membrane. There is a greater preference for glucose, which is the first to be used in the dough. By decreasing the glucose concentration, the yeast uses the fructose in the doug...

Enzymes are useful to modify wheat proteins to preserve the gas better and to correct the rheological properties of the dough of weak flour and bread. Gluten proteins are highly impacting the quality of various gluten-based products, and transglutaminases (TGs) leading to the strengthening, stability and constancy of the dough as well as the improvement of the volume, texture and storage time o...

In this study, the addition of Sweet lupin seeds flour (SLSF) in different levels (5, 10 and 15%) to wheat flour (WF) was evaluated. Dough mixing properties, bread physical characteristics and sensory properties were investigated. Increasing SLSF level in the SLSF-WF composites led to an increased water absorption, dough development time, C4 and setback torque, while it decreased flour moisture...

Biscuits are convenient food products, becoming very popular among both rural and urban populations of worldwide. Some of the reasons for such wide popularity are low cost among other processed foods, varied taste, easy availability and longer shelf life. This paper presents a review regarding several aspects of the quality and impact of biscuits making until biscuits packaging, mainly from foo...

Avenin-like b proteins are a small family of wheat storage proteins, each containing 18 or 19 cysteine residues. The role of these proteins, with high numbers of cysteine residues, in determining the functional properties of wheat flour is unclear. In the present study, two transgenic lines of the bread wheat overexpressing avenin-like b gene were generated to investigate the effects of Avenin-...
