The interaction of dietary protein type and fat level on the body fat-reducing activity of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was studied in male rats fed diets containing casein (CAS) or soy protein (SOY) as a protein source with low fat (LF, 6.0% soybean oil) or high fat (HF, 13.0% soybean oil) combinations for 4 weeks. CLA was added at the 1.0% level to all diets. The weight of perirenal adipose...

Several studies have suggested that soybean intake is associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer. However, the mechanism of prostate cancer prevention by soybeans remains unclear. Because prostate cancer is reported to have an association with an increased level of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and soybean isoflavones are known to inhibit 5 alpha-reductase, which is involved in the conversion ...

The influence of 0-27 g/100g of full-fat soy flour (FFSF), 31-35g/100g of water content and extrusion conditions on the textural characteristics of spaghetti were evaluated. Process was performed with screw speed of 10-40 rpm and water circulating temperature of 35-70. This enrichment resulted in significant differences in mechanical strength and cutting parameter. Based on the mixture surface ...

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...

nowadays, quality control of bread, especially in large scale production, requires application of novel methods. in this research, image analysis of digital images of barbary bread enriched with soy flour was carried out at two storage intervals. using imagej software, crumb features (mean cell area and void fraction) were computed for each image. fractal dimensions of bread crumb images were m...

BACKGROUND Food allergy to lupine has frequently been reported in patients allergic to peanut or soy, and cross-reactivity between these legumes is known. Moreover, respiratory allergy to lupine has been described after inhalation, mostly at workplaces. Our aim was to study the frequency of lupine sensitization in European bakers with suspected bakers' allergy. Furthermore, associations between...

The research study was conducted to develop a healthy vegetables soup powder supplemented with soy flour, mushroom, moringa leaf and compare its nutritional facts with locally available soup powders. Proximate analysis and sensory evaluation were done by standard method. In this study, moisture, ash, protein, fat, fiber, carbohydrate, and energy content were ranged from 2.83% to 5.46%, 9.39% to...

A comparative study on the feasibility of producing instant high fibre plantain flour for diabetic fufu by blending soy residence with different plantain (Musa spp) varieties (Horn, false Horn and French), all sieved at 60 mesh, mixed in ratio of 60:40 was analyzed for their passing properties using standard analytical method. Results show that VIIIS60 had the highest peak viscosity (303.75 RVU...

BACKGROUND Many of the benefits of soy have been attributed to soy isoflavones. OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the effects of high- and low-isoflavone soy-protein foods on both lipid and nonlipid risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS Forty-one hyperlipidemic men and postmenopausal women participated in a study with three 1-mo diets: a low-fat dairy food control d...

Pancreatic hypertrophy that occurs in rats fed raw soy flour containing about 1200 mg tripsin inhibitor (Tn/lOO g diet was reversed by switciti.ng the rats to control diets or to diets containing 30% toasted defatted soy l1our. No panCTeatic hypertrophy occurs in rats fed commercial, edible gr:!de soy 11 ours, concentrate or isolate from time of weaning to adulthood (ca. 300 days). Tl content o...
