Published: December 2021

The properties of the starch-amylolytic complex of commercial low-extract rye flour were determined based on the traditional method, such as falling number and amylograph test as well as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The starch, pentosans and protein had a significant effect on the thermal properties of the tested rye flours. Based on the falling number, it was revealed that rye flours were characterized by medium and low alpha-amylase activity. The falling number and amylograph test are not sufficient methods to determine the suitability of currently produced rye flours for bread making. The gelatinization process of the rye flour starch could be evaluated by the DSC test, which, together with the falling number and amylograph test, may allow a better way to evaluate the usefulness of rye flours for bread making. Many significant correlations between parameters determined by DSC endotherm and quality parameters of rye bread, such as volume and crumb hardness, were reported. Breads made from flour with higher enthalpy in DSC were characterized by higher volume and softer crumb.

Article Synopsis
  • Prolamins found in wheat, barley, and rye are linked to health issues like celiac disease and wheat allergies, pushing the need for gluten-free alternatives like rice flour, though its products are not as high-tech.
  • Adding low-fat desiccated coconut flour and xanthan gum to rice flour significantly improves the quality and properties of gluten-free cakes, impacting viscosity, moisture, and texture.
  • The study successfully optimized a gluten-free cake recipe, achieving improved sensory qualities (taste, texture, etc.) through careful ratios of rice flour, coconut flour, and xanthan gum, validated by strong statistical models.

Article Synopsis
  • Acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation can produce bio-based 1-butanol from agricultural byproducts, which are low-cost and available year-round, addressing the issue of high feedstock costs in bio-butanol production.
  • Milling byproducts like wheat red dog (WRD) and rye second flour (RSF) were found to contain high levels of glucan, primarily starch, making them suitable substrates for ABE fermentation by solventogenic clostridia.
  • The strain Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 performed the best in producing butanol, achieving titers up to 9 g/L in semi-continuous fermentation with a combination of WRD and rye waste,

Impact of compositionally diverse cereal flour water extracts on the gas cell size distribution and extensional rheology of model gluten-starch doughs.

The role of water-extractable (WE) cereal flour constituents, and particularly WE proteins, in determining bread dough gas cell stability and bread specific volume (SV) remains ill-understood. We investigated the impact of compositionally diverse cereal flour aqueous extracts on bread SV, dough extensional rheology, and dough gas cell size distribution. To this end, aqueous extracts from wheat, rye, and defatted oat flours were either used as such, or their composition was modified by dialyzing out (i) low molecular mass constituents or (ii) both low molecular mass constituents and enzymatically hydrolyzed carbohydrates.

Article Synopsis
  • There's a growing consumer interest in organic foods, which is increasing focus on cultivating ancient cereal species like mountain rye, prompting research into its baking potential.
  • The study compared the baking properties of six different flours from milled mountain rye, assessing quality factors like moisture, protein, and acidity.
  • Results showed that bread made with lactic acid-fermented dough had better volume and taste, while lower-extract flour produced the highest quality bread overall.
