The aim of the study was to assess the influence of replacing wheat flour with hazelnuts or walnuts, in various amounts, on the thermal and rheological properties of the obtained systems. The research material were systems in which wheat flour was replaced with ground hazelnuts (H) or walnuts (W) in the amount of 5%, 10%, and 15%. The parameters of the thermodynamic gelatinization characteristics were determined by the differential scanning calorimetry method. In addition, the pasting characteristics were determined with the use of a viscosity analyzer and the viscoelastic properties were assessed. Sweep frequency and creep and recovery tests were used to assess the viscoelastic properties of the tested gels. It was found that replacing wheat flour with nuts increased the values of gelatinization temperature, gelatinization, and retrogradation enthalpy, and the degree of retrogradation. The highest viscosity was characteristic of the control sample (2039 mPa·s), and the lowest for the paste with 15% addition of walnuts (1120 mPa·s). Replacing the flour with nuts resulted in a very visible reduction in the viscosity of such systems. In addition, gels based on the systems with the addition of H and W were weak gels (tan δ = G″/G′ > 0.1), and the values of G′ and G″ parameters decreased with the increased share of nuts in the systems. Creep and recovery analysis indicated that the systems in which wheat flour was replaced with hazelnuts were less susceptible to deformation compared to the systems with the addition of W.

In this study, the effect of encapsulated sour cherry pomace extract on the physical characteristics of the cookie dough (colour, textural and rheological properties) was investigated. Sour cherry pomace extract encapsulated in whey (WE) and soy proteins (SE) was incorporated in cookie dough, replacing 10% (WE10 and SE10) and 15% (WE15 and SE15) of wheat flour. The dough samples containing encapsulates had the grey-blue colour ( b* values significantly decreased compared to control sample). Due to the presence of anthocyanins, a* values of the dough colour increased significantly with the addition of encapsulates. The addition of soy protein encapsulate increased hardness, resistance to extension and viscosity of cookie dough and decreased deformation compliance ( J), while the addition of whey encapsulate caused dough softness, higher deformation compliance and lower values of viscosity compared to control sample. Values of storage and loss modulus, G′ and G″, significantly decreased when wheat flour was replaced with WE and increased when the flour was replaced with soy protein encapsulate. The addition of soy protein encapsulate resulted in higher cookie hardness.

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 aim of the study was to assess the possibility of using polysaccharides: inulin and polydextrose in combination with steviol glycosides as sucrose substitutes in starch-based desserts with reduced sugar content and to determine their influence on the rheological properties of these desserts. The samples (starch-milk desserts) were prepared from native potato starch, milk, dye, flavouring agent, and sucrose. The sucrose was partially or completely substituted with steviol glycosides and inulin or polydextrose. The rheological evaluation of the desserts was performed by determining pasting characteristics, viscosity curves, creep and recovery curves and mechanical spectra. Substitution of sucrose with prebiotic polysaccharides modified the rheological characteristics of the starch-milk desserts to a degree depending on the type and level of the substituting agent. Inulin reduced the peak viscosity of starch-milk paste, while it had no effect on the final viscosity of the product, contrary to polydextrose, which increased value of the latter parameter. The desserts exhibited a non-Newtonian, shear-thinning flow behaviour. The use of inulin, in both the highest and the lowest concentrations, significantly changed the consistency coefficient and the flow index values, while such a phenomenon was not observed in the case of polydextrose. The desserts with inulin showed increased values of the storage modulus and reduced susceptibility to stress, manifesting strengthened viscoelastic structure. The results indicate that the both prebiotic polysaccharides can serve as substitutes for sucrose in desserts with reduced sugar contents.

The aim of this work was to analyze selected physical, chemical, thermal, and rheological properties of starches isolated from different spelt wheat varieties. The analyzed starches contained from 22.5 to 24.6 g/100 g of amylose and from 45.9 to 50.6 mg/100 g of phosphorus. Ranges of characteristic gelatinization temperatures, TO, TP, and TE, were 55.7–58.5°C, 61.1–62.6°C, and 67.4–68.2°C, respectively, while gelatinization enthalpy ranged from 8.87 to 9.96 J/g. The pasting curves showed significant differences in pasting characteristics of the starches. The values of maximum viscosity (ηmax) and viscosity after cooling (η50) determined for the starch pastes were in the range of 82.3–100.7 B.U. and 149.3–172.7 B.U., respectively. The starch pastes demonstrated non-Newtonian, shear thinning flow behaviour and thixotropy phenomenon. After cooling the resulting starch gels were characterized by different viscoelastic properties, with a dominance of elastic features (G′>G′′). The starches exhibited different tendency to retrogradation, with its degree (R=ΔHR/ΔHG) in the range of 21.1–37.4%.

The objective of this work was to study the effects of wheat flour dough’s viscoelastic level by adding glucose oxidase (Gox) on its rheological properties at dynamic shear strain mode to predict the final product quality. Dough does display a linear viscoelastic domain. Glucose oxidase (Gox) was added to dough in order to enhance its viscoelasticity and to take into account the possible effects of this viscoelasticity on the results. Whatever the types of dough strain used G’ increased, tan δ decreased and led to less sticky dough. Wheat flour dough, an increase in G’ with extension may be associated to a strain-hardening phenomenon but the role of dough viscoelasticity is discussed.

Abstract The effect of magnesium ions from gluconate salt at the level of 100, 150 and 200 mg/100g addition on empirical dough rheological properties from the 550 wheat flour type was studied. Dough rheological properties during mixing (dough development time, dough stability, degree of softening), α amylase activity and gelatinization temperature were analyzed by using a Falling Number and Amylograph. During fermentation were analyzed the maximum height of gaseous production, total CO2 volume production, volume of the gas retained in the dough at the end of the test and the retention coefficient by using a Rheofermentograph device. By magnesium gluconate (Mg) salt addittion dough become more strength by an increase of stability and a decrease of the degree of softening. With Mg addittion wheat flour dough volumes were affected. Compared to the control sample, the dough volume decreased with the increased level of Mg. From the point of view of the α amylase activity, it decreases with the increase level of Mg whereas the gelatinization temperature increases.

The effect of three non-starch hydrocolloids (guar, carob and arabic gums) on some rheological properties of rye starch pastes/gels at a constant 6.5% concentration of polysaccharides was determined throughout: (i) pasting characteristics, (ii) flow curves and apparent viscosity–shear time curves at 50 C and (iii) mechanical spectra at 25 C. The presence of gums in the system modified the rheological properties of rye starch pastes/gels and these alterations depended on the type and concentration of the gum. The systems with guar and carob gums exhibited higher apparent viscosities during pasting and higher shear stresses during flow than the paste of native starch. The viscosity of the system with carob was bigger than the one with guar gum. The presence of arabic gum decreased the apparent viscosity of the system both during pasting and during flow. Replacing part of starch with a gum modified the viscoelastic properties of gels, the changes depended on the kind and concentration of the gum.

Background. The analysis of modern literature sources shows that the impro­vement of existing biscuit technologies is aimed primarily at the use of various non-traditional raw materials to regulate the nutritional value and increase the stability of sponge dough during production and baking.Thus, the production of biscuits from spelt flour is one of the most promising areas of its use, as it meets the technological properties of this type of product. The aim of the work is to study the rheological properties of sponge dough from a mixture of premium wheat flour and spelt flour. Materials and methods.The object of the study is the dough for the main biscuit and with the replacement of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 % of high-grade wheat flour (HGWF) with spelt flour (SF). The study was performed on a rotary viscometer Reotest-2 on a system of cylin­ders S, S3 at a temperature of 20 °C. Shear stress and viscosity are calculated by formulas for the corresponding values of shear rate. The whipping of the sponge dough was defined as the ratioof thevolume of the egg-sugar mixture after beating to the volume of the mixture after adding the flour mixture and stirring for 15 с(%). The stability of the sponge dough (SSD) with the addition of flour mixtures was determined as the ratio of the height of the foam after aging for 15· 60 сat a temperature of 18–20 °C to the total height of the foam column of the sample, expressed as a percentage. Results. The study found a general trend to reduce the viscosity of sponge dough for test specimens depending on the shear rate relative to control. Thus, for the studied shear deformations from 0.167 c-1 to 24.3 c-1, the viscosity of the sponge dough of the control sample decreases from 55.50to 3.26 Pa ∙ с. Replacing wheat flour with spelt flour in the amount of 10 to 50 % helps to reduce the viscosity of sponge dough from 55.50 to 1.55 Pa ∙ с. When studying the dependence of the effective viscosity of the dough for the main biscuit on the content of SF at a fixed shear rate of 24.3 c-1, two areas were identified –in the range of 0–30 and 30–50 % replacement of wheat flour for SF, for which there is a different intensity of viscosity reduction: by 38.3 and 2.4%, respectively. The increase in the stability of sponge cake dough by 3.6–43.6% in the studied samples with respect to control was due to the addition of spelt flour. Conclusion. The use of spelt flour in the composition of the main sponge cake helps to reduce the viscosity, but increases the whipping and stability of the biscuit dough, which is positive for the subsequent molding and baking.

The objective of the present study was to determine the influence of replacement part of starch with inulin on the rheological characteristics of pastes and gels obtained on the basis of potato starch. Replacement of the starch by inulin varied from 0 to 40%. Flow curves for pastes and gels were determined, and the viscoelastic properties were characterized using dynamic tests and creep and recovery tests. It was determined that the replacement of part of potato starch with inulin significantly modifies rheological properties of starch pastes and gels, weakening their structure. With the increasing amount of inulin, an increase of viscous properties was becoming more apparent. Moreover, an irregular influence of inulin addition on the parameters of rheological characteristics was determined. Initially, the differences were minor, and the differences at the lowest addition were typically statistically insignificant, followed by strong increase with local restrictions to structural weakening.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of formulation factors, sea salt (SS), dry sourdough (SD) and fermented sugar (FS) as sodium chloride replacers in wheat flour on dough mixing, extension, pasting and fermentation rheological properties, evaluated by Farinograph, Extensograph, Amylograph and Rheofermentometer devices. With regard to mixing and extension properties, SS and FS presented a strengthening effect, whereas SD presented a weakening one. SS and FS presented a positive effect on dough stability, energy and resistance, whereas SD presented a negative one. On the Amylograph, peak viscosity increased by SS and FS addition and decreased when SD was incorporated in the dough recipe. During fermentation, dough development and gas production in the dough system increased after SS and SD addition, whereas they decreased after FS addition. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to investigate the effect of independent variables on the rheological properties of the dough. Mathematical models between the independent variables, SS, SD and FS, and the dependent variables, represented by the rheological values of the dough, were obtained. The best formulation obtained was of 0.30 g/100 g SS, 0.50 g/100 g SD and 1.02 mL/100 g FS addition with a 0.618 desirability value, following Derringer’s desirability function approach. For this formulation, bread quality characteristics were better appreciated than for those obtained for the control sample, in which 1.5% NaCl was incorporated in wheat flour.
