We estimated glycemic and insulinemic responses to short-grain rice (Japonica) and a short-grain rice-mixed meal (i.e. short-grain rice and other ingredients) in three healthy male, and five healthy female subjects aged 22-31 years. A 50 g carbohydrate portion of dry rice was used in this study to estimate the glycemic index (GI) of short-grain rice (Experiment 1). The GI of short-grain rice wa...

Bread quality index was established using the instrumental analysis of bread parameters 12 that influence the consumers’ acceptability. The instrumental methods that describe 13 bread appearance, structure and texture have been chosen in order to enable the 14 identification and quantification of main discrepancies of wheat bread produced by 15 different processes such as fully baked frozen bre...

This study was conducted to develop an optimal composite recipe for pan bread with ramie powder that has high sensory approval with all age groups and to estimate the DPPH radical scavenging activity and the pan bread shelf life after gamma irradiation. The sensory evaluation results showed significant differences in flavor (p<0.05), appearance (p<0.01), color (p<0.01), moistness (p<0.01), and ...

Sorghum is the world’s fifth most important cereal grain after wheat, maize, rice and barley. Sourdoughs have been successfully used to improve the quality of gluten-free bread. The production of a novel food product with improved health benefit for gluten intolerance individuals necessitated this study. Microbiological and physicochemical qualities of the bread samples were determined. Sorghum...

The fortified of soft wheat flour with cowpea flour in bread making was investigated. The Soft wheat flour (SWF) was substituted by cowpea flour at levels of 5, 15 and 20%. The protein content of composite breads ranged from 6.1 – 9.9%. Significant difference was observed in moisture, protein and crude fibre contents of control (wheat bread) and composite bread at 5% addition of cowpea. Water a...

in a steam power plant, the temperature of the cooling water leaving the condenser for recyclingshould decrease. this is achieved in a cooling tower. the heller cooling tower does not require waterfor operation, thus, it is a suitable system for use in thermal power plants throughout iran. wind is anenvironmental factor that unfavorably affects the performance of a cooling tower. previous studi...

IN THE CURRENT STUDY, WHEAT FLOUR WAS MIXED WITH HIGH QUALITY CASSAVA FLOUR (HQCF) IN SEVERAL RATIOS: 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, and 60:40, and used to prepare 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% National Root Crops Research Institute (NRCRI) cassava bread, respectively. 100% wheat bread was prepared as a control (100% wheat bread). Five bread samples were prepared per group. Antioxidant assays [i.e., 2,2-dipheny...
