The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of reducing the acrylamide content of bread samples obtained from wheat flour with a high extraction rate by adding a dry sourdough (SD) into the bread recipe. According to the data obtained, compared to the control sample the acrylamide content was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) by more than 50% for the bread samples in which low levels of SD of 1–3% were added to wheat flour. More so, due to the fact that SD affects bread quality, its technological effects on bread making have been investigated. The dough’s rheological properties (mixing and pasting using Mixolab, extension using Alveograph, fermentation using Rheofermentometer), falling number value, and bread quality parameters (loaf volume, porosity, elasticity, color, textural and sensory qualities) have been investigated. In general, SD addition caused a weakening effect on wheat flour dough, an increase in the total volume of CO2 produced during fermentation and a decrease in the falling number value. On bread quality, SD addition improved bread physical characteristics, darkened the bread crumb and crust, decreased the textural parameters (firmness, gumminess, cohesiveness and resilience) and improved the bread sensory characteristics for the samples with the addition of 1–2% SDto wheat flour.

The aim of this study was to incorporate brown flaxseed into bread in order to improve it quality. For this purpose, different levels of whole ground brown flaxseed (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) were used to substitute wheat flour 650 type of a very good quality for bread making. The bread samples obtained were analyzed from the physical, colour, crumb cell, textural and sensory characteristics point of view. Samples containing 10% of brown flaxseed were with the highest values for loaf volume, porosity and elasticity. The control sample had lowerest redness and greenness value. The maximum hardness was found for bread with 20% brown flaxseed addition. With the increase level of brown flaxseed addition large cells can be noticed in crumb structure of bread. Samples containing 20% of flaxseed were rated poorest in tase, texture, overall acceptability, appearance. Our results indicated that brown flaxseed addition could be added to a typical bread formulation up to levels of 10% with a good overall acceptability offering promising healthy and nutritious alternative to consumers. Between bread flour characteristics at different brown flaxseed flour substitution levels principal component analysis shown significant correlations (p < 0.05) between bread physical characteristics (loaf volume, porosity, elasticity) and bread  overall acceptability.

The aim of this investigation was to incorporate tomato seed into bread in order to improve it quality. Whole ground tomato seed at different levels (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) was used to replace wheat flour 650 type of a very good quality for bread making to make bread. Bread quality through physical, colour, crumb cell, textural and sensory characteristics were analyzed and compared with those of bread without tomato seed. The substitution of wheat flour with 10% tomato seed has the effect of highest values for loaf volume, porosity and elasticity. Color intensity, expressed as the L*, a*, b* values of breads with tomato seed were lower than those of control bread. The hardness of bread samples increased with the increase level of tomato seed addition. Also, the addition of increasing amounts of tomato seed highlighted large cells in crumb structure of bread. Sensory characteristics showed that bread samples with addition of 5 or 10% tomato seed to wheat flour were similar from of point of view of overall acceptability, but 20% addition resulted in slightly acceptable samples. Principal Component Analysis revealed significant correlations (p < 0.05) between bread physical characteristics, loaf volume, porosity, elasticity and bread overall acceptability at different tomato seed flour addition levels in wheat flour. Overall, tomato seed flour could be incorporated up to levels of 10% into bread to provide its beneficial health effects, not negatively changing its quality.

Uganda produces cassava, which has potential as a raw material for agro-industry. In this study, wheat flour was blended with high quality cassava flour in the ratios 100:0, 90:10; 80:20; 70:30; 60:40; 50:50 and 40:60 and the composite dough used to prepare bread. The doughs were subjected to rheological analysis using mixolab, consistograph and alveograph. Bread physical properties were measured and sensory qualities evaluated to correlate rheological characteristics of flour/dough with bread quality. Inclusion of cassava flour in the composite dough negatively affected the quality of the composite bread compared to the control. Bread volume (631.0 to 516.7 cm3) decreased, specific volume (2.065 to 1.574 cm3/g) decreased, bread density (0.49 to 0.63 g/cm3) increased. Mean scores for sensory quality parameters reduced: crust colour (6.88 to 4.63), taste (7.13 to 4.25), crumb texture (6.5 to 4.63) and overall acceptability (8.13 to 4.5). Bread quality was positively correlated with mixolab parameters protein weakening (C2), dough stability and dough development time (DDT); alveograph parameters tenacity (P) and deformation energy (W); and consistograph parameter maximum pressure (PrMax). Results showed that bread of acceptable quality can be processed using wheat composite containing 20 % cassava flour. Rheological properties can be used to assess suitability of flour for bread making.

Представлены результаты исследования влияния компонентов мучной композитной смеси – муки люпиновой, кукурузной и ячменной на автолитическую активность и углеводно-амилазный комплекс пшеничной муки 1-го сорта. Для определения автолитической активности по числу падения (ЧП) образцов муки с добавками и без них добавки вносили в количестве 5, 15, 25, 35%. Установлено, что при внесении 5% ячменной и кукурузной муки автолитическая активность существенно не меняется, при увеличении количества добавки показатель ЧП муки увеличивается от 3 до 14% и автолитическая активность снижается. Величины показателей газообразующей и водопоглотительной способности мучных композитных смесей возрастают по сравнению с аналогичными показателями контрольного образца – пшеничной мукой 1-го сорта без добавок. Рекомендовано использовать разработанную мучную композитную смесь, содержащую 65% пшеничной муки, 25% люпиновой муки, 5% кукурузной муки, 5% ячменной муки, при производстве пшеничных сортов хлеба для улучшения реологических свойств теста и, следовательно, качества хлеба. Results of investigation of influence of components of flour composite mixtures – lupine, cornmeal and barley flour on autolytic activity and carbohydrate-amylase complex of wheat flour of 1st grade are presented. To determine the autolytic activity by of falling number (FN) flour samples with additives and without them additives were brought in the amount of 5, 15, 25, 35%. It is established that with the introduction of 5% barley flour and cornmeal autolytic activity does not change significantly, with an increase in the number of additives, the index of FN flour increases from 3 to 14% and autolytic activity decreases. Values of indicators of gas-forming and water-absorbing ability of flour composite mixtures increase in comparison with similar indicators of a control sample – wheat flour of 1st grade without additives. It is recommended to use the developed flour composite mixture containing 65% wheat flour, 25% lupine flour, 5% cornmeal, 5% barley flour in the production of wheat breads to improve the rheological properties of the dough and, therefore, the quality of bread.

The bread-making quality of forty commercial winter wheat samples, grown in the western region of the CzechRepublic, and their flours (white flours with ash content of about 0.5%) prepared in a commercial mill was studied. Standard analytical methods (ash and protein content, wet gluten), amylolytic activity measurement (falling number), rheological investigation (alveograph, gluten index), sedimentation test and laboratory baking test were used for characterization of wheats and flours. In addition NIR method was used to calculate ash, wet gluten, sedimentation value and protein content. Statistically significant correlations were found practically between all tested quality parameters of wheat and corresponding flour samples. However, the strongest correlation (r = 0.69&ndash;0.70) significant at 0.01 level exists between specific bread volume and protein and wet gluten content, determined both by standard or by NIR methods.&nbsp;

The influence of wheat black point kernels on selected indicators of wheat flour quality - farinograph and extensograph indicators, amylolytic activity, wet gluten and flour ash content, were examined in this study. The examinations were conducted on samples of wheat harvested in the years 2007 and 2008 from the area of Central Banat in four treatments-control (without black point flour) and with 2, 4 and 10% of black point flour which was added as a replacement for a part of the control sample. Statistically significant differences between treatments were observed on the dough stability, falling number and extensibility. The samples with 10% of black point flour had the lowest dough stability and the highest amylolytic activity and extensibility. There was a trend of the increasing 15 min drop and water absorption with the increased share of black point flour. Extensograph area, resistance and ratio resistance to extensibility decreased with the addition of black point flour, but not properly. Mahalanobis distance indicates that the addition of 10% black point flour had the greatest influence on the observed quality indicators, thus proving that black point contributes to the technological quality of wheat, i.e .flour.

Rice bran was subjected to natural fermentation for 4 days and investigated for its physicochemical, antioxidant, phytochemical, functional properties and mineral content. In addition, the fermented and non-fermented rice bran flours were supplemented with wheat flour in several ratios for baking bread. The proximate composition results obtained showed that fermented rice bran flour possessed protein content of 5.68%, fibre (37.8%), fat (2.97%) and carbohydrate (31.06). It was observed that the total phenol content for non-fermented rice bran flour (362.69 GAE µg/ml) was higher than fermented bran flour (359.15 GAE µg/ml). However, the ability of the samples to scavenge 1,1-di phenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical was higher in fermented flour (57.0mg/ml) than in non-fermented sample (55.0 mg/ml). The result of the qualitative analysis of the phytochemical screening revealed that only saponin was present in the rice bran flours. The mineral composition of the non-fermented and fermented rice bran flours revealed that the flours possessed magnesium (0.19%-0.18%), sodium (0.06%-0.17%), calcium (0.08%-0.13%) and potassium (0.03%-0.02%). The physical properties of bread sample at 20% rice bran flour supplementation showed that there was no significant difference between loaf volume of the wheat flour bread and non-fermented rice bran bread (360cm3) while there was significant difference in the loaf volume of fermented rice bran bread (281cm3). It was observed that the fermented rice bran bread had the highest fibre content (1.83%), followed by non-fermented rice bran bread (1.37%) and wheat flour bread (0.95%). The sensory analysis revealed that both the fermented and non-fermented rice bran breadswere scored above average in all sensory parameters although wheat flour bread was preferred.

The ability of trifoliate hardened-yam flours to partially substitute wheat flour in food formulations was assessed. Three varieties of hardened-yam flour were incorporated in wheat flour in proportions of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50% (w/w). Samples were evaluated for protein content, Zeleny sedimentation index, Hagberg falling number, functional properties (WAC, WSI, and OAC), and some rheological properties including dough rupture pressure (P), extensibility (L), stability (P/L), and deformation energy (W). Results showed that trifoliate hardened-yam flours do not have acceptable baking properties as pictured by the low Zeleny sedimentation index and the low Hagberg falling number. Protein quality (Zeleny index, 31) of wheat flour helped to compensate gluten deficit of yam flours, but the amylasic activity determined by the Hagberg falling number could not be adjusted, which resulted in a loss of extensibility (L) of the paste at 10% substitution. Multivariate analysis of experimental data regrouped wheat flour and all wheat/hardened-yam treated with kanwa composite flours in one homogeneous cluster. Although wheat/hardened-yam treated with kanwa composite flours had physicochemical and functional properties similar to wheat, the inadequate diastasic activity makes them inappropriate for bread making, marking the strongest influence of that parameter.

Nowadays, the dietary sodium chloride intake is higher than the daily recommended levels, especially due to its prominent presence in food products. This may cause an increase of high blood pressure leading to cardiovascular diseases. Cereal products, and in particular bread, are the main source of salt in human diet. However, salt is a critical ingredient in bread making, and its reduction can have a negative impact on bread quality. This review focuses on physiological role of sodium chloride, its effect on the human body and legislative recommendations on its consumption. Moreover, it presents sodium chloride effects on the bread making from the technological and sensory point of view and presents different options for salt reduction in foods focusing on bakery products. It may be concluded that salt reduction in bread making while maintaining dough rheological properties, yeast fermentation rate, bread quality through its loaf volume, color, textural properties, sensory characteristics is difficult to be achieved due to sodium chloride’s multifunctional role in the bread-making process. Several strategies have been discussed, focusing on sodium chloride replacement with other type of salts, dry sourdough and flavor enhancers.
