Abstract

Oats and barley milling products are a rich source of dietary fiber, especially β-glucans, but also possess high enzyme activity, contain antinutrients, and undesirably affect the technological and sensory properties of the bakery products. This dissertation investigated the pretreatment of oat and barley flour/bran using traditional (sourdough fermentation) and innovative techniques (high-intensity ultrasound, pulsed electric field) and the application of these pretreated raw materials in... More making flat bread. The addition of oat/barley bran improved the fermentation of flour to sourdough, which successfully slowed down the enzymatic browning of the retarded dough and reduced antinutrient content (32-38%) in flat bread. Ultrasonic pretreatment of oat and barley bran partially inactivated β-glucanase (by 82% and 55%), reduced antinutrients (by 17% and 39%) and increased the β-glucans content (25-65%) in the flat bread. Processing of oat and barley flour with a pulsed electric field also reduced its β-glucanase activity (by 77% and 40%), improved the solubility of non-starch polysaccharides, and increased the β-glucans content in flat bread (21-32%). These innovative and traditional techniques, in combination or individually, improved the techno-functional properties of flour/bran by enabling fiber enrichment, improving texture profile, while maintaining consumer acceptance of flat bread.

Abstract (croatian)

Zob i ječam bogat su izvor prehrambenih vlakana, posebice β-glukana, međutim posjeduju visoku enzimsku aktivnost, sadrže antinutrijente te nepoželjno utječu na tehnološka i senzorska svojstva pekarskih proizvoda. U ovoj disertaciji istražena je prethodna obrada zobenih i ječmenih posija te brašna tradicionalnim (fermentacija kiselog tijesta) te inovativnim tehnikama (ultrazvuk visokog intenziteta, pulsirajuće električno polje) te primjena tako obrađenih sirovina u izradi tankog kruha.... More Dodatak zobenih/ječmenih posija poboljšao je fermentaciju brašna u kiselo tijesto, što je uspješno usporilo enzimsko posmeđivanje tijesta tijekom procesa odgođene fermentacije i smanjilo sadržaj antinutrijenata (32-38%). Prethodna obrada zobenih i ječmenih posija ultrazvukom visokog intenziteta rezultirala je djelomičnom inaktivacijom endogene β-glukanaze (za 82% i 55%), smanjenim udjelom antinutrijenata (za 17% i 39%) i povećanim udjelom β-glukana (25-65%) u tankom kruhu. Obrada zobenog i ječmenog brašna pulsirajućim električnim poljem rezultirala je smanjenjem β-glukanazne aktivnosti (za 77% i 40%), poboljšanom topivosti neškrobnih polisaharida te povećanim udjelom β-glukana tankog kruha (21-32%). Ove inovativne i tradicionalne tehnike, u kombinaciji ili zasebno, poboljšale su tehno-funkcionalna svojstva brašna i posija, omogućujući obogaćivanje vlaknima, poboljšanje teksture tankog kruha, uz zadržavanje senzorske prihvatljivosti potrošača.
