production of part-baked bread is a successful method to postpone bread staling that has been applied widely for production of loaves. in this research, production and some physical characteristics of part-baked flat bread (barbari) including hardness, volume, color, weight loss, and microstructure were studied during the storage of the samples at ambient (25ºc) and freezing (-18ºc) temperature...

Aims In bakery products, quality attributes of the crust such as crispy texture and colour and of the crumb as softness and springiness are important attributes for consumer’s perception. These attributes mainly set up during the baking stage and are influenced by the baking conditions (oven temperature, steam injection...). Many physical and chemical changes occur to lead to a porous structure...

Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) and preharvest sprouting (PHS) are genetic defects in wheat. They are both characterized by the expression of specific isoforms of α-amylase in particular genotypes in the grain prior to harvest. The enhanced expression of α-amylase in both LMA and PHS results in a reduction in Falling Number (FN), a test of gel viscosity, and subsequent downgrading of the grain, a...

functionality of marve seed gum (salvia macrosiphon boiss) on rheological properties and staling of baguette bread have been studied. three different concentrations of 0.1 %, 0.5% and 1% (w/w, flour basis) were applied and this hydrocolloid affected the quality of the stored bread to some extent. the effects of marve seed gum on the rheological properties of dough was also investigated instrume...

The formation of the large protein structure known as "gluten" during dough-mixing and bread-making processes is extremely complex. It has been established that a specific subset of the proteins comprising gluten, the glutenin subunits, directly affects dough formation and breadmaking quality. Glutenin subunits have no definitive structural differences that can be directly correlated to their a...

Wheat gluten confers superior baking quality to wheat based products but elicits a pro-inflammatory immune response in patients with celiac disease. Transamidation of gluten by microbial transglutaminase (mTG) and tissue transglutaminase (tTG) reduces the immunogenicity of gluten; however, little information is available on the minimal modification sufficient to eliminate gliadin immunogenicity...

Various neural network models were developed to establish the relationship between tin temperature profiles and bread quality. The best model was composed of 6 input neurons, 6 first hidden layer neurons, 4 second hidden layer neurons and 4 output neurons with Log-sigmoid transfer functions. During verification, the correlation coefficient and mean square error were 0.9356 and 53.9229 respectiv...

OBJECTIVE An earlier clinical study demonstrated that brushing with a commercial Arm & Hammer dentifrice containing baking soda physically removed significantly more plaque than brushing with either of two commercial dentifrices which did not contain baking soda. However, little has been done to confirm these results and to compare baking soda-containing dentifrices with more recently commercia...
