Bread produced with the use of yeasts supplemented with magnesium by means of PEF was characterised by its highest content, at 39.3 mg/100 g, which was higher by 50% and 24%, respectively, compared to the control bread sample with an admixture of yeasts cultured without any addition of magnesium and with no PEF treatment and to the control bread sample with an admixture of yeasts cultured with an addition of magnesium but no PEF treatment. The addition of yeasts supplemented with magnesium using PEF in bread production did not cause any statistically significant changes in the chemical composition of any of the analysed samples. However, statistically significant changes were noted in the technological properties of breads produced with an admixture of yeasts supplemented with magnesium by means of PEF...

A pot experiment with spring barley was performed in the greenhouse run by the Institute of Soil Science and Plant Cultivation. The barley cultivars studied were compared for the quantity and quality of grain yield including their response to three levels of nitrogen fertilisation (NH 4 NO 3): 1, 2 and 3 g N/pot. The nitrogen fertilisation level proved to have a significant effect on the yield and quality of grains of the barley cultivars examined. With the increase in the nitrogen dose levels to 3 g/pot, a significant increase was reported in the grain yield and number of spikes per pot in all the spring barley cultivars, however there was a decrease in the weight of 1000 kernels. The levels of nitrogen fertilisation and the barley cultivars proved to have a significant impact on the contents of total dietary fibre (TDF) and (1,3)(1,4)-β-D-glucans but no interaction was found between the level of fertilisation and the cultivar. Significantly higher contents of TDF and (1,3)(1,4)-β-D-glucans were reported in the examined spring barley cultivars at a dose of 2 and 3 g N/pot compared to 1 g N/pot. With the increase in the nitrogen dose to 3 g N/pot, a significant increase was reported in the protein content in all the cultivars. Owing to the highest contents of dietary fibre and (1,3)(1,4)-β-D-glucans, and to a high protein content, the 'Bordo' and 'Tocada' varieties can be recommended as the best varieties to produce food.

The content of (1-3)(1-4)-b-d-glucans assayed with the enzymatic method varied within the range from 4.04 to 5.71% dry matter basis. Microspectrophotometric analysis revealed significant differentiation in the structure of the kernels and in the distribution of (1-3)(1-4)-b-d-glucans; it also indicated a necessity of applying such processing methods as are appropriate to the distribution of functional components. The distribution of functional components in the high-glucan lines of naked barley makes them ideal for utilization both in the milling technology and in the production of grits and flakes.

The following cultivars were compared: 'Basza', 'Conchita', 'Skarb', and 'Xanadu' in terms of their response to 3 levels of nitrogen fertilization (NH 4 NO 3): 1, 2 and 3 g N / pot. Doses of 1 and 2 g N / pot was divided into two parts: 60% before sowing + 40% at the end of tillering, and the dose of 3 g N / pot was divided into three parts: 60% before sowing + 25% at the end of tillering + 15% before heading. Studied spring barley cultivars varied by grain yield size, grain yield structure traits and response to nitrogen doses. Cultivars 'Conchita' and 'Xanadu' had the higher grain yield and greater number of spikes per pot compared to 'Basha' and 'Skarb'. Cv. 'Skarb' was characterized by higher total dietary fibre and insoluble dietary fibre contents in grains than other cultivars. Cv. 'Xanadu' was characterized by the highest soluble dietary fibre content. 'Conchita' cultivar showed a higher (1-3) (1-4)-β-D-glucan content in the grain than other cultivars. With the increase of nitrogen levels to 3 g N/pot, there was obtained significant increase in grain yield and number of spikes per pot in all spring barley cultivars, but the decrease of 1000 kernel weight. Comparing to other cultivars, the highest yielding cultivars 'Conchita' and 'Xanadu' showed greater percentage increases in grain yield and number of spikes per pot under the influence of increasing nitrogen doses to 3 g N / pot. At 2 and 3 g N/pot doses, the highest dietary fibre and soluble beta-glucan contents in spring barley grains was stated in comparison with a dose of 1 g N/pot. With the increase of nitrogen dose to 3 g N/ pot, there was showed significant increase in protein content in grain of all cultivars. Total dietary fibre, insoluble dietary fibre, and ash content in the grain of spring barley cultivars were not dependent on the nitrogen fertilization doses.

This study investigated the impact of incorporating vegetable processing waste from tomatoes (TP) and bell peppers (PB) on dough characteristics and bread quality, with concentrations of TP and PB ranging from 3% to 12% based on flour weight. The addition of TP and PB influenced the farinograph characteristics, increasing water absorption, dough development, and softening while reducing stability time. However, the changes in bread quality, including baking yield, loss, volume, and crumb porosity, were not significant. The texture properties, such as hardness, chewiness, and cohesiveness of the crumb, showed no significant changes within the supplemented levels up to 9%. Additionally, the TP and PB had a significant impact on the color of the bread crumb, increasing redness and yellowness, particularly with PB. Fortification with TP and PB up to 9% resulte...

Sung, Hywel-Jones and Spatafora), Shiitake (Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler), and Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor (L.) Lloyd), are considered new-generation foods and are of growing interest to consumers. They are characterised by a high content of biologically active compounds, including (1,3)(1,6)-β-d-glucans, which are classified as dietary fibre, triterpenes, phenolic compounds, and sterols. Thanks to their low-fat content, they are a low-calorie product and are classified as a functional food. They have a beneficial effect on the organism through the improvement of its overall health and nutritional level. The biologically active constituents contained in medicinal mushrooms exhibit anticancer, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and immunomodulatory effects. ...

The objective of the study was to determine the effect of an addition of wholemeal husked and naked barley with varied content of dietary fibre on the bread quality. In the bread produced the bread yield, total oven loss, volume of 100 g of the bread and the moisture of fresh crumb were determined, and also consumer sensory assessment was performed. Analysis of the content of β-D-glucans, total dietary fibre with division into the soluble and insoluble fractions was made. The barley wholemeal addition, at the rate of 7.5%, allows to obtain bread with a significantly higher content of dietary fibre fractions, compared to the control bread, with sensory quality characterized for wheat bread. At the same time, barley component caused a small reduction of baking loss and increased of crumb moisture, compared to the wheat bread. It was demonstrated that wholemeal barley flour can be a highly valuable component enhancing the quality and nutritional value of white bread.

The objective of the study was to estimate the nutr itive value and the functional traits of new lines of naked barley. The study comp rised the grain of 23 lines of naked barley and two registered model cultivars – naked cv. Rastik a nd husked cv. Stratus. In samples of grain from a field experiment, from three consecutive harvest years, assays of the content of total proteins, crude fat and minerals were performed. Special atte ntion was focused on the basic functional traits of the grain – the content of total dietary fibre a nd its fractional composition, analysing the conten t of the soluble and insoluble fractions in a water s olution of enzymes and in an acid environment. It was demonstrated that the husked cultivar had a hig her content of minerals (2.22% d.m.), total dietary fibre (TDF) (22.18% d.m.), AIDF fraction (4 .75% d.m.) and SDF fraction (18.09% d.m.). The naked lines were characterised by a higher cont ent of proteins (from 10.15 to 12.05% d.m.), fat (f...
