Introduction: Bread made ​​from wheat flour is an important source of minerals such as iron and zinc, but its phytic acid content is a contributing factor that can cause decreased absorption of these minerals. This survey aimed to determine phytic acid content in different types of bread and dough consumed in Yazd, Iran. Materials and methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carrie...

this research studied the addition of hull-less barley and wheat malt flour on the qualitative parameters of semi-voluminous bread (form, softness, porosity, upper and under surface characters, chewing capability, aroma, taste, hardness). a completely randomized design was used with 3 treatments (control, use of malted wheat, use of barley flour) in 4 replications. a sensory evaluation and the ...

introduction agricultural research is important and one of the determinant factors of development of technologies in agricultural sector. among agricultural research disciplines, breeding programs, especially, wheat breeding programs are one of the applied approaches in improving of production and food security. based on a study by byerlee & traxler (1995), economic benefits and internal rate o...

Deoxynivalenol (DON, vomitoxin) is a type-B trichothecene mycotoxin produced by several field fungi such as Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum and known to have various toxic effects. This study investigated the effect of the bread making process on the stability of DON in common bread and wheat germ-enriched bread using naturally contaminated ingredients at the level of 560 µg/kg. The ...

In the present work, health risk of heavy metals such as As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn in Iranian urban and rural samples including wheat, wheat flour, bread, pasta and sweets were assessed. The real amount of heavy metals in target samples were determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Wet ashing and hydride g...

plant breeders use rye (secale cereale l.) as a foreign genetical resource tool in increasing wheat genetical variations. 1r chromosome and especially its short arm, 1rs has been introduced into wheat genome frequently. 1rs studies and effective selection is used in cytogenetical, chemicals techniques and dna markers. present study was conducted to investigate the presence of rye chromosome seg...

Nine cultivars of winter wheat were compared in organic and conventional crop rotation systems. Bread-making quality was evaluated using three parameters [thousand-kernel weight (TKW) in g, volume weight in g/l, protein content in %]. Grain yield, TKW and protein content of winter wheat in organic cropping system were significantly lower as compared to any intensity in conventional cropping sys...

BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies associate consumption of whole grain foods, including breads, with reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk; however, few studies have compared wheat whole grains with wheat refined grains. METHODS This study investigated effects of 6-week consumption of whole grain wheat sourdough bread in comparison to white bread on fasting serum lipids in normoglycemic/...
