What science says process mechanism “Development of a Generic Fermentation Feedstock from Whole Wheat Flour”
fermentation → feedstock → whole wheat flour
ingredient property “Whole wheat flour and germ each contained about 10% total (IF + SF) fiber; they also matched closely in SF and IF.”
whole wheat flour and germ → contain → about 10% total (IF + SF) fiber
technique parameter “Fortification significantly (P < 0.05) affected WA, DDT, DS and viscographic characteristics of the flours.”
mineral fortification → affects → rheological properties of whole wheat flour
nutrition finding “The GI of atta mix roti (27.3 (sem 2.2)) was considerably lower than the whole wheat flour roti (45.1 (sem 3.5), P < 0.001).”
atta mix roti → has lower glycaemic index than → whole wheat flour roti
compound effect “The addition of WWF delayed the retrogradation tendency of starch in the dry mix”
whole wheat flour → delayed → the retrogradation tendency of starch in the dry mix
