Optimization of Wheat-Grape Seed Composite Flour to Improve Alpha-Amylase Activity and Dough Rheological Behavior

摘要

In this work, the response surface methodology was used to determine the optimum level of input variables, gluten deformation index (mm) and the level of grape seed flour (%) addition in wheat flour that improve falling number index and Mixolab dough rheological parameters. The full factorial model was the best compatible model which fitted to each response. A replacement dose of 4.08% in wheat flour with gluten deformation index value of 8.27 mm was found optimal. The influence of optimum values of variables on dough microstructure has been investigated using epifluorescence light microscopy.
