UNLABELLED Carob germ proteins have been shown to have functional properties similar to wheat gluten enabling formulation and production of yeast leavened gluten-free baked goods from a true dough rather than a stiff batter. The purpose of this research was to optimize the production of wheat-free bread containing carob germ flour, corn starch, NaCl, sucrose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC...

background: venepuncture is a minimally invasive procedure, which is commonly performed in hospitals; if the pain is inadequately managed, it can cause negative feelings in children. distraction can reduce pain through affecting the central nervous system and releasing neurotransmitters that inhibit pain. aim: in this study, we aimed to compare the effects of play-dough and bubble making as dis...

Nixtamalization is a traditional process that improves the nutritional quality of corn. To provide a means of utilizing the nutritional benefits of nixtamalized corn and improve product acceptability, lactic acid fermentation was applied. The objective of the study was to study the microbial profile and establish the important lactobacilli of fermenting nixtamalized corn dough. Two batches of c...

There are many reports on the application of different hydrocolloids in the production of leavened breads; most of which show positive effects on bread quality. However, there is little information to prove such effect on flat breads. The main aim of this study was to improve the quality of Barbari dough and bread (Iranian flat bread) in terms of texture, taste and general acceptability of fres...

in the baking industry, use of hydrocolloid technology to improve the operation and to increase the tolerance to paste fermentation conditions, improve quality and increase the shelf life of fresh as well as stored bread, is of large applications. this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of gel of sodium alginate on rheological properties of dough and quality (volume, specific volu...

This study was conducted to improve the quality and theoretical understanding of gluten-free sorghum bread. The addition of 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose improved bread based on 105% water, 70% sorghum flour, and 30% potato starch. Nevertheless, a flat top and tendency toward a hole in the crumb remained. Sourdough fermentation of the total sorghum flour eliminated these problems. Size-exclu...

Bakery products with various fruit fillings are very popular due to their fresh-fruity fragrance. Said fruit fillings, which are added to the pastries after the baking process, should have, besides the required sensory properties, also very good physicochemical characteristics regarding processing (dosing, pumping, injecting). Heat stable fruit fillings should only be used for filled pastries b...

In this data article, laboratory experimental investigation results carried out at National Centre for Agricultural Mechanization (NCAM) on moisture content, machine speed, die diameter of the rig, and the outputs (hardness, durability, bulk density, and unit density of the pellets) at different levels of cassava pellets were observed. Analysis of variance using randomized complete block design...

BACKGROUND After exercise, recovery is very essential in professional sport. Athletes use sport beverages to enhance endurance and physical performance. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Dough versus non-alcoholic beer and carbohydrate (CHO) fluid on performance, lipids profile, inflammatory biomarkers after Running-based Anaerobic Sprint Test (R.A.S.T) in Taekwondo player...
