The research study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of soy-mushroom-enriched biscuits which could be used as a protein supplemented cereal snack food. In this study, wheat flour was replaced with soy flour at different levels that is 20% (T3), 15% (T2), and 10% (T1) and without soy flour was kept as control (To). Mushroom was added in both biscuits. Biscuits were analyzed f...

yoghurt ice cream (yic) or frozen yoghurt dessert can be regarded as a healthy alternative to plain ice cream. also use of soy derived products in food formulations can lead to the development of products of improved nutritional and health promoting values. yoghurt ice cream was prepared using full-fat soy flour to substitute 55% of non fat dry milk content. product formulation comprised of 12%...

Optimization of the production and evaluation of the quality of maize-based snack supplemented with soy and tigernut flour was carried out. Experimental design for the composite flour was carried out using optimal design model of response surface methodology. The variables were toasted maize flour (75-85%), soy flour (10-20%), and tigernut flour (5-10%); while the responses were proximate compo...

This study investigated the effects of replacing casein with soy flour on the fatty acids profile and triglycerides metabolism in the liver of rats that were previously fed with normocaloric and hypercaloric diets based on casein. Wistar male rats were used; one group was fed with control diet (AIN-93) and another with hypercaloric diet (AIN-93 with 34.15% sucrose, 42% fat calories) for 9 weeks...

Spaghetti was prepared from durum wheat supplemented with soy flour in order to make an inexpensive, highly nutritious food and to determine the effects of high levels of soy flour on taste and textural attributes. Up to 50% soy flour was incorporated into spaghetti, resulting in a protein content of 33.5% (compared with 15.4% for control without soy) and a lysine content of 1.75% (compared wit...

Soy peroxidase enzyme obtained from isoelectic precipitation procedures was added to all-purpose flour (APF) to assess its effects on the rheological properties and consumer acceptability of yeast bread. A pH 4.8 isoelectrically precipitated fraction from soybeans was used because it produced the most precipitate and had about the same peroxidase activity as the other fractions. Gluten strength...

The supplementation of a simple medium with soy flour led to an increase in the specific growth rate and viable cell concentration of Saccharomyces bayanus during fermentation. Increasing the amount of soy flour led to an increase in the maximum number of viable yeast cells and the percentage of glucose fermented. It was possible in 64 h to reach 12.8% (wt/vol) ethanol by adding 4% soy flour (w...

The research intended to explore the possibility of fortifying the soy flour and rice bran to formulate the functional biscuit which have the ability to improve the quality of food products due to various functional properties. Suplementation of wheat flour with soya and rice bran was tried at 10 %, 15%, 20%, 25% level each. Prepared biscuit is subjected to physical, Sensory and nutritional ana...

Previous studies showed that soy bean has the potential to improve many aspects of diabetes state and provide metabolic benefits that aid in weight management. We aimed to determine the effects of soy bean flour enriched bread on anthropometric indices and blood pressure among type 2 diabetic patients. This randomized, crossover, clinical trial was performed in 30 type 2 diabetic women. There w...

The Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) and the Bowman-Birk inhibitor (BBI) of trypsin and chymotrypsin contain disulfide bonds. Glycinin, the major storage protein in soybeans also contains disulfide bonds. Treatment of soy white flour with a NADP-thioredoxin system (NTS) effectively reduced disulfide bonds in soy flour and increased protein digestibility by trypsin and pancreatin as measured by th...
