This article presents the a comparison study between two enzymes: lipase and carboxylesterase, considering the influence on the rheological parameters of the dough obtained from wheat flour. For determining the activity of the enzymes, there were performed the following analysis: the determination of the fat content using Soxhlet method and the determination of rheological parameters of the dough using the alveographic method. The Soxhlet method is based on repeated extraction with ethyl ether or petroleum ether o...

In the last years, due to its benefits, the syrup has gained a valuable place on the market, can be extracted from many flowers and medicinal plants, and from all kinds of fruits that can be squeezed out. Many studies have highlighted the beneficial therapeutic effect of fruit and herbal syrups as a cure for various diseases. Due to their curative properties, being good detoxifiers, general tonic and immunostimulating, the syrups have a major importance in modern food, having a dual functionality, namely that of f...

This article presents the influence of beta-amilase on 3 types of flour: white, whole and brown flour used in the baking industry. In order to determine the activity of the enzyme, the following analysis were done: the falling number using Perten Instruments FN 1310 and the rheological parameters of the dough using the alveographic method. The falling index indirectly measures the activity of enzymes, rapidly jellifying the aqueous suspension of flour which is introduced in a boiling water bath and it measures the...

Increasing tendency for fresh food - fruits, vegetables, and herbs - consumption worldwide and also in our country shows the important role they play in the diet. In this case, it is not only good looks, nice color or taste and aromas that are considered to be important, but especially their nutritional value, rich in sugars, vitamins and minerals necessary in the diet of the human body. They also have the advantage to be fit for consumption without any processing which could reduce their nutritional value. The pu...
