Cereal Chem. 67(6):529-532 The water solubilization and apparent molecular weights of starch evident, the HPSEC-determined water solubility increased with decreasing polymers from extruded corn starch and extruded decorticated sorghum extrusion moisture. Decreased water solubility of corn starch, however, flours were characterized by aqueous high-performance size-exclusion was caused by extrusi...

To study oil distribution in fermentation liquid and solids for the purpose of recovering oil from corn stillage by centrifugation, a low-shear single-screw extruder was used to treat corn for dry-grind ethanol fermentation. Five different treatments for corn were used, and their effects on ethanol fermentation, oil distribution, and oil extractability were studied. Extruded corn with different...

The present study evaluated the nutritional characteristics of Tapioca- a partially gelatinized starch grit made from cassava supplemented with fermented and germinated moringa seed flour. proximate composition, mineral, vitamin, amino acid profile, functional properties sensory attributes tapioca-moringa flour blends were determined. It was observed that protein content increased 2.85% − 11.05...

Glucoamylase is widely used in the food industry to produce high glucose syrup, and also in fermentation processes for production beer and ethanol. In this work the productivity of the glucoamylase of Aspergillus awamori expressed by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, produced in submerged fermentation using different starches, was evaluated and characterized physico-chemically. The enzyme pre...

Amylomaltases are 4-alpha-glucanotransferases (EC 2.4.1.25) of glycoside hydrolase family 77 that transfer alpha-1,4-linked glucans to another acceptor, which can be the 4-OH group of an alpha-1,4-linked glucan or glucose. The amylomaltase-encoding gene (PAE1209) from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrobaculum aerophilum IM2 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, and the gene product (Py...

Cereal Chem. 69(5):542-546 The changes in rheological properties of a wheat flour dough due to the wheat flour dough were clearly influenced both by the type of the addition of enzymes were measured. The dough, made of flour of a-amylase and by mixing protease with the a-amylase. The presence of standard baking quality, was characterized by oscillatory measurements a-amylases caused a decrease ...
