Improvement of Fatty Acid Profile in Durum Wheat Breads Supplemented with Portulaca oleracea L. Quality Traits of Purslane-Fortified Bread
2020
The addition of functional ingredients to breads could have effects on preventing cardiovascular diseases, cancers and inflammation. The incorporation of 0&ndash
The impact of mastication, salivation and food bolus formation on salt release during bread consumption
2014
Health authorities recommend higher fibre and lower salt content in bread products. However, these basic ingredients of bread composition are multifunctional, and important changes in their content influence the texture, flavour and acceptability of the product. This study was designed to investigate the link between oral processing, bolus formation and sodium release during the consumption of four different breads that varied in composition and structure. Chewing behaviour was determined by surface electromyography, and salivation was quantified from the water content of the boluses collected. The kinetics of bread degradation during food bolus formation was characterised by measuring the …
Parameters of rye, wheat, barley, and oat sourdoughs fermented withLactobacillus plantarumLUHS135 that influence the quality of mixed rye-wheat bread…
2017
A Lactobacillus plantarum strain was used for the production of rye, wheat, barley, and oat sourdoughs, and the influence of different sourdoughs on mixed rye–wheat bread quality parameters and acrylamide formation was evaluated. L. plantarum LUHS135 demonstrated versatile carbohydrate metabolism, good growth and acidification rates, and the ability to excrete amylolytic and proteolytic enzymes in various cereal sourdoughs. The same starter and different cereal substrates allow to produce sourdoughs showing different characteristics. The type of sourdough and its quantity had significant influence on acrylamide content in bread (P ≤ 0.0001), and using 5% or 10% of wheat sourdough, 5%, 15%, …
The contribution of P. acidilactici, L. plantarum, and L. curvatus starters and L-(+)-lactic acid to the acrylamide content and quality parameters of…

Abstract Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from spontaneous rye sourdough were isolated, identified, and characterized by their growth, acidification rate, and carbohydrate metabolism. The isolated LAB were used for production of rye sourdough, and the influence of sourdough on mixed rye - wheat bread quality and acrylamide formation was evaluated. In addition, comparative studies by using acidification with L-(+)-lactic acid for mixed rye – wheat bread production were performed. Isolated LAB (P. acidilactici, L. plantarum, L. curvatus) demonstrated versatile carbohydrate metabolism, grown at 30 °C and 37 °C, and acidic tolerance. When the isolated strains were used for rye sourdough production, t…
A novel alpha-amylase-lipase formulation as anti-staling agent in durum wheat bread
2016
The aim of this work has been to evaluate the anti-staling effect exerted by a novel α-amylase-lipase enzyme formulation on durum wheat bread, in comparison with four different commercial amylase preparations and with control without added enzymes. Bread-making trials were carried out at industrial level. Sliced bread, packed under modified atmosphere, was analyzed for texture profile, moisture content, and water activity during 90 days. Crumb sections were submitted to environmental scanning electron microscopy at the end of the storage period. The α-amylase-lipase enzyme preparation showed synergistic interactions in preventing staling. In particular, bread added of these two enzymes in m…
Integrated Strategies to Improve the Quality of Wheat End-Products: Optimization of Processes and Development of Functional Food
Strategie integrate per il miglioramento qualitativo di prodotti da forno a base di grano: ottimizzazione dei processi produttivi e sviluppo di alimenti funzionali. Sono state sviluppate tecnologie applicate ai prodotti da forno per il miglioramento dei processi produttivi e lo studio di alimenti funzionali. In particolare è stato condotto uno studio su trattamenti sanitizzanti al fine di ridurre le contaminazioni microbiche (soprattutto lieviti) sul prodotto finito. E’ stata proposta una soluzione a base di perossido e argento colloidale in confronto con soluzioni fenoliche OPP. Il monitoraggio, biennale, è stato svolto nelle celle di lievitazione e raffreddamento del prodotto finito (pane…
The quality of wheat bread with ultrasonicated and fermented by-products from plant drinks production
2021
During plant-based drinks production a significant amount of valuable by-products (BPs) is obtained. The valorization of BPs is beneficial for both the environment and the food industry. The direct incorporation of the fermented and/or ultrasonicated almond, coconut, and oat drinks production BPs in other food products, such as wheat bread (WB) could lead to the better nutritional value as well as quality of WB. Therefore, in this study, various quantities (5, 10, 15, and 20%) of differently treated [ultrasonicated (37 kHz) or fermented with Lacticaseibacillus casei LUHS210] almond, coconut, and oat drinks preparation BPs were used in wheat bread (WB) formulations. Microbiological and other…
Molecular Mobility in Glassy Bread: A Multispectroscopy Approach
1999
ABSTRACT The molecular mobility in low-moisture (<9%, web) white bread was studied as a function of temperature using pulsed-proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and dielectric and dynamic mechanical spectroscopies. The water was mobile, even in glassy samples. Different processes below glass transition temperature (sub-Tg) were observed, and a relaxation map of the studied system was drawn. These results have been interpreted and extrapolated to suggest that the Tg is not a universal predictive parameter for the physical stability of glassy food.

Development of Durum Wheat Breads Low in Sodium Using a Natural Low-Sodium Sea Salt
2020
Durum wheat is widespread in the Mediterranean area, mainly in southern Italy, where traditional durum wheat breadmaking is consolidated. Bread is often prepared by adding a lot of salt to the dough. However, evidence suggests that excessive salt in a diet is a disease risk factor. The aim of this work is to study the effect of a natural low-sodium sea salt (Saltwell®
