Cannabis sativa L partially skimmed flour as source of bio-compounds in the bakery industry

摘要

Recently, the hemp seeds, a by-product of the manufacture of hemp fibers, became more and more interesting because of their composition. Cannabis sativa L., non-drug varieties and its seeds (hemp seeds), has an important functional potential, being a significant source of omega 3 and omega 6 (in an optimum ratio), fibers and amino acids (lysine, alanine, and arginine). Currently, hemp seeds have a niche market based particularly on functional food products and animal feed. In this study, partially defatted hemp seeds flour have been used for enrichment of wheat flour with functional ingredients, such as: bioactive carbohydrates (dietary fibers), bioactive proteins, unsaturated fatty acids and minerals. The analysis of the composition of partially defatted hemp seeds flour has been done in order to demonstrate their functionality in bakery products based especially on wheat flour.
