Enzymes are useful to modify wheat proteins to preserve the gas better and to correct the rheological properties of the dough of weak flour and bread. Gluten proteins are highly impacting the quality of various gluten-based products, and transglutaminases (TGs) leading to the strengthening, stability and constancy of the dough as well as the improvement of the volume, texture and storage time o...

Evaluation of the effect fat replacer gel on physicochemical and rheological properties low-calorie cake dough texture

Introduction: The antimicrobial compounds have attracted attention these days all around the world. Applying essential oils (EOs) as the herbal antimicrobial materials and natural antioxidant are so valuable in the food industry. In this study the effects of Rosmarinus officinalis essential oil (REO) with different phenol contents was investigated on the properties of ...

Bioluminescence of the marine worm Chaetopterus variopedatus was first investigated several decades ago mainly using tissue extract. Light production of the worm, however, originates from a secreted mucus only. Here, we report the optical and physicochemical properties of the luminous mucus. We show that the produced light occurs as a long glow in the blue range (455 nm), which is an unusual co...

Background and Objectives: Canola oil is very low in saturated fatty acid (~8 %), which makes it suitable for application as dressing for salad. Canola oil is liquid, thus its application in the production of margarine and shortening is limited. The present study provides information about the effects of monoacylglycerols (MAG) as the structuring agent on physical, microstructure and rheologica...

In this study the rheological and physicochemical properties of four types of honeys, two poly floral (Mountain, Forest) and two mono floral (Sunflower, Ivy), were investigated. Rheological characteristics of honeys were evaluated at different temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25 and 30ºC). All the honeys exhibited Newtonian behavior for shear rate in the range of 1.045-41.8 s-1. The viscosity of sampl...

in this study, the effects of incorporating grape seed powder (gsp) on flour physicochemical properties i.e. particle size, crude protein, fiber, wet gluten and gluten quality (zeleny test), and dough rheological properties were investigated. increasing incorporation levels of gsp from 5 to 25% (w/w flour basis) led to an increase in the amount of fat, total phenol, and total dietary fiber; whe...

The aim of this study was to produce the ice cream with potential antidiabetic effects by addition of pistachio peel extract (PPE) (0, 10, 20 and 30% on dry matter basis). The properties of produced ice creams such as physicochemical, rheological, antioxidant, antidiabetic and sensory properties were evaluated. The results indicated that ice creams containing 20 and 30% of PPE provided desired ...
