Summary The purpose of this research was to improve the functional properties of gluten-free (GF) wholemeal buckwheat bread by sourdough fermentation and addition of arabinoxylan (AX) and pyranose 2-oxidase (POx). AXs are able to cross-link to other AX molecules under acidic conditions, which is supported by the addition of oxidizing enzymes (e.g., POx). On a first approach, the optimal sourdough concentration (% acidification of total flour weight) was adjusted. The best results were seen at an acidification of 82% of total flour weight. The optimal dosage of 3% AX and 1 nkat POx/g flour was able to increase the specific volume from 1.80 to 1.93 cm3/g bread and reduce the firmness from 9.61 to 4.69 N compared to the control bread and presented an acceptable relative elasticity of 62.20 ± 0.96%. These effects were then compared in breads produced from wholemeal and refined buckwheat flour. Interestingly, the wholemeal buckwheat bread showed a significantly lower firmness and higher relative elasticity than the bread from refined flour, which can be mainly attributed to the higher protein and dietary fibre content of wholemeal flour. Overall, this study suggested that addition of AX and POx could positively increase the quality of GF buckwheat bread.

The diet of children with gluten intolerance should include a sufficient amount of gluten-free grain-based products that provide children with carbohydrates, including dietary fiber, vegetable proteins, fats, B vitamins, and mineral matters. This study is aimed at studying the content of the main food substances (proteins, fats, carbohydrates, as well as the total content of mineral matters, expressed by the parameter – ash content) in amaranth flour and flour from native buckwheat. Studies have shown that amaranth flour has a high protein content-13.4%, lipids-5.1%, and ash content - 2.8%. Flour from native buckwheat contains protein-7.5%, lipids-3.6%, the ash content of buckwheat flour was 1.4%. The carbohydrate content of both samples is approximately at the same level of 56-58%. Specialized products made from amaranth and buckwheat can become a source of deficient macro-and microelements, high-grade protein and other biologically valuable compounds.

<p class="p1">A review was carried out of the physical and chemical properties of flours and starches made from cassava, yam, ñampi, and sweet potatoes. Amyloseamylopectin content, viscosity, nutritional value and fiber content were studied to associate them with their functional and technical-functional properties. A relationship was found between amylose-amylopectin, viscosity and fiber content and digestibility of those starches, as well as with glycemic index values. </p><p class="p1">It was found that it is possible to introduce modifications through fermentation to enhance the nutritional value of these starches. Fermentation allows the production of gluten-free bread and energy drinks as an option to diversify products. It was also found that there is a relationship between starch viscosity and a reduction of fat absorption in fried foods. </p>
