Wheat end-use quality mainly derives from two interrelated characteristics: the compositions of gluten proteins and grain hardness. The composition of gluten proteins determines dough rheological properties and thus confers the unique viscoelastic property on dough. One group of gluten proteins, high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS), plays an important role in dough functional proper...

The consequences of addition of 1 % (w/w) glutenin of selected commercial wheat varieties, differing in their quantitative and qualitative gluten profile, to the base flour were investigated. The study was accomplished by employing an advanced 4 g bowl of MicrodoughLab (MDL). The elementary torque-time functions such as peak resistance,dough development time, dough stability, softening and ener...

The transfer of agronomically useful genes from wild wheat species into cultivated wheat is one of the most effective approaches to improvement of wheat varieties. To evaluate the transfer of genes from Dasypyrum villosum into Triticum aestivum, wheat quality and disease resistance was evaluated in two new translocation lines, T1DL•1V#3S and T1DS•1V#3L. We examined the levels of stripe rust res...

Cereal Chem. 86(5):582–589 A modified extensigraph method reduced sample quantity to 100 g from 300 g and testing time by half with easy dough preparation compared to the AACC standard extensigraph method, which challenges wheat breeding programs where the sample size is small and evaluations of large numbers of samples are demanded. Correlation coefficients (r) for 93 pairs of each of six exte...

chapatti is high consuming bread in the southeast countries of asia that in fresh form has a tender texture but within a few days of storage, becomes inflexible. in this research, the effects of guar and cmc gums at two levels of 0.25 and 0.5% on quality of chapatti bread were investigated. based on results, gum addition in different levels increased moisture and ash contends and improved rheol...

The rising of bread and the quality of the baked loaf depend upon the nature of the dough and especially upon such of its properties as tenacity, ductility, and elasticity. These properties are hard to define theoretically in this complex colloidal system, but they are, as we have found, related to viscosity or to whatever may determine the resistance of dough to stirring and to flowing through...

A cost-effective, faster and efficient way of screening wheat samples suitable for tortilla production is needed. This research aimed to develop prediction models for tortilla quality (diameter, specific volume, color and texture parameters) using grain, flour and dough properties of 16 wheat flours. Another set of 18 samples was used to validate the models. The prediction models were developed...

The purpose of this study was to confirm the dimensional accuracy of a newly developed injection pressing method for resin polymerization by making use of the internal electric resistance of resin to determine the optimal timing for resin injection. A new injection pressing polymerization pot with a built-in system to measure the internal electric resistance of resin was used for resin polymeri...
