BACKGROUND Lipids are minor components of flours, but are major determinants of baking properties and end-product quality. To the best of our knowledge, there is no single solvent system currently known that efficiently extracts all non-starch lipids from all flours without the risk of chemical, mechanical or thermal damage. This paper compares nine ambient solvent systems (monophasic and bipha...

The influence of four cereals namely, flours of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.)Moench) and maize (Zea mays L.)on the growth and development of T. castaneum was investigated at ambient tropical laboratory conditions of 30±3 ̊C and relative humidity of 75±5%. The antinutrients, mineral profile and proximate compositions of the four flour ...

soy flour is the least processed form of soy protein products which has become increasingly popular in food technology for its nutritional benefits, low cost and good functional properties. the aim of this study was to investigate functional properties of soy flours produced by four different industrial processes: defatted, defatted and toasted, low fat, and full fat soy flours. because of diff...

This work aims at examining the physical, chemical and functional properties of composite flour produced with cassava, rice, soybean flours, and potato starch and added with 0.5% xanthan gum. Nine blends of composite flours were prepared by homogenously mixing rice flour, cassava flour, soybean flour, and potato starch (RF:CF:SF:PS) in the proportions of 30:50:15:4.5, 30:45:20:4.5, 30:40:25:4.5...

The effect of wheat flour refined milling on nutritional and antioxidant quality of hard and soft grown in Ethiopia was evaluated. Bread was prepared with the supplementation of the white wheat flour with different levels (0%, 10%, 20%, and 25%) of wheat bran. Whole (100% extraction) and white wheat (68% extraction) flours were analyzed for proximates, minerals, and antioxidants. Results indica...

Coeliac disease (CD) is triggered by the ingestion of gluten proteins from wheat, rye, and barley. The 33-mer peptide from α2-gliadin has frequently been described as the most important CD-immunogenic sequence within gluten. However, from more than 890 published amino acid sequences of α-gliadins, only 19 sequences contain the 33-mer. In order to make a precise assessment of the importance of t...

Cereal Chem. 72(l):33-37 The FY sedimentation test is commonly used by manufacturers of Spring and Western Soft White wheat classes decreased. Examination steamed and fried noodles as one of their flour quality specifications. of flours increasing in protein content and dough strength suggested that The FY sedimentation values of Canadian wheat flours were determined, the latter was associated ...

HIGHLIGHTS In Brazil, many banana cultivars can be used in the making of flour. Flours prepared from pulp, peel, or whole (pulp and peel). Staged I II maturation should prioritized due to starch content. The sensory analysis supports possibility industrial use flours.

Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) is an artificial hybrid of wheat (Triticum sp.) and rye (Secale sp.) first bred in laboratories during the late 19 century. In little more than a century, triticale has developed from a biological curiosity to a practical crop. Plant breeders have made efforts to overcome main problems of triticale: preharvest sprouting, susceptibility to diseases, sensitivi...

233 Plantains and bananas (Musa sp.) are important starchy staples in Ghana. Processing of plantains into flour is limited as most plantain foods are eaten as boiled, fried or roasted. However, after the introduction on local and foreign markets of instant plantain fufu (popular West African food) flour consisting of plantain flour and cassava starch, interest in plantain flours as a commercial...
