Determination of Deoxynivalenol in White Flour, Whole Wheat Flour, and Bran by Solid-Phase Extraction/Liquid Chromatography: Interlaboratory Study

Fermentability of whole oat flour , PeriTec flour and bran by 1 Lactobacillus plantarum 2 3

Distribution of deoxynivalenol in wheat, wheat flour, bran, and gluten, and variability associated with the test procedure.

Analytical data obtained on deoxynivalenol (DON) concentration in naturally contaminated wheat during processing in an industrial mill were statistically analyzed, and the distribution functions of DON concentration in lots of wheat, bran, wheat flour, and gluten were estimated. The analytical method had acceptable precision (HORRAT 0.25-0.32) for each test sample. The total variance combined s...

Wholewheat flour ensures higher mineral absorption and bioavailability than white wheat flour in rats.

Consumption of unrefined whole flour is thought to affect mineral bioavailability because it contains high levels of fibre and phytic acid. The present experiment was designed to study the absorption of minerals from diets based on wholewheat flour and white wheat flour in rats. Two groups of male Wistar rats were fed on the diets for 3 weeks and absorption and tissue retention of minerals were...

Effect of wheat flour, Bengal gram flour and corn flour on lipid metabolism in rats.

Male albino rats were fed on respective diets of wheat flour, Bengal gram flour and corn flour for 8 weeks at the 59% level. It was observed that the increase in weight after wheat flour and Bengal gram flour feeding was 6.8 and 12.0% respectively and that the decrease after corn flour feeding was 5.2% as compared to the control animals on sucrose diet. Serum cholesterol and liver cholesterol l...
